I am confused by the statement that if one is prevented from entering the state of ihram from Madinah, he should return and enter the state of ihram from Jeddah?

The questioner : Our last statement confused us, that if... Madinah...
The Shaykh : Hmm, our statement confused us? Who said it, other than you?!
The questioner : I am confused
The Shaykh : Yes, it is fine
The questioner : That if he returns from Madinah, he returns to enter the state of ihram in Jeddah
The Shaykh : No, he is not returning; he is currently in Jeddah
The questioner : No, Shaykh, he was prevented on the way
The Shaykh : Okay, meaning after he left Jeddah?
The questioner : Yes
The Shaykh : He enters the state of ihram from the place where he was prevented, as long as he intended the lesser pilgrimage or the major pilgrimage. He enters the state of ihram from his location, from where he began. Remember, from where he began. We have one minute left. Yes, Faisal.
