If one intends to go to Makkah for work, and then performs 'Umrah after finishing, from where should he enter the state of ihram?

The questioner : If one intends to go to Makkah for work, and this work lasts for a week or ten days, and he says after the work that he will perform 'Umrah, is it necessary for him to enter the state of ihram?

The Shaykh : No, as long as his intention is for work. As for the act of worship, it is still undecided; it may be undecided. If he comes in the state of ihram, he performs the act of worship first.

The questioner : If the work is immediate?

The Shaykh : He advances, he advances so that he can perform the act of worship.
