The Miqat of the People of Sudan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He also asks, saying: From where do the people of Sudan enter the state of ihram while they are at sea? Do they enter ihram from Jeddah, or from Rabigh?
Answer:
Their miqat is Rabigh, unless they pass by a miqat before Rabigh. Otherwise, what we know about the Sudan, like Egypt and others, is that their miqat is Rabigh. However, some scholars of Sudan say: There is a route where one might reach Jeddah before Rabigh, connecting to Jeddah before Rabigh. If one finds a route with this distance, they should enter ihram from Jeddah. But if they are heading toward Rabigh, or toward al-Malham, it is obligatory for them to enter ihram while they are at sea, if they are at the point of passing these locations. Yes.
(peace and blessings be upon him): May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
