Ruling on one who goes to Jeddah intending to perform 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: The brother A. A. M. from Riyadh says in his question: I traveled to Jeddah, and my intention was to stay there for five days, and then go to the Noble Mosque of Mecca to perform 'Umrah. What is obligatory for me, O Shaykh, in a case like this?

Answer: You are required to return to the miqat in Wadi Qarn, known as "al-Sayl," to enter the state of ihram from there for 'Umrah, if you were intending to perform 'Umrah when you set out for Jeddah. This is based on the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he designated the miqats:
and those (Mawaqit) are also meant for those who live at these (places) and for those too who come from without towards them for the sake of Hajj or 'Umraهن لهن ولمن أتى عليهن من غير أهلهن ممن أراد الحج والعمرة
Sahih Muslim 1181a
It is agreed upon as authentic from the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both).
