Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : His EminenceThe Shaykh : What is the ruling on entering the state of ihram from Jeddah for one coming for the purpose of Hajj or 'Umrah?
The Shaykh : Where is he coming from? The one who entered the state of ihram from Jeddah, where is he coming from?
The questioner : He is coming from outside, from Sudan or from the West, the inhabitants of Africa.
The Shaykh : If he is coming from a country where he reaches Jeddah before passing the miqat, such as one who comes directly from Sudan, he enters the state of ihram from Jeddah, because he reaches Jeddah before passing Rabigh and before passing Yalamlam. As for the one who comes from the north or the south, he enters the state of ihram when he passes the miqat. Likewise, the one who comes from the east; for example, the one who comes from Riyadh enters the state of ihram when he passes al-Qarn al-Manazil in the plane, and the one who comes from al-Qasim enters the state of ihram when he passes what? No, because those who come from al-Qasim pass by Madinah, so they enter the state of ihram from Dhul-Hulayfah. Thus, no one coming by plane enters the state of ihram from Jeddah except those who come directly from the west. And the scholars said regarding the people of Sawaakin in Sudan: these people reach Jeddah before they pass the miqat, after that.
