Ruling on the Hajj of one who passed the miqat and entered the state of ihram from Jeddah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener: Muhammad Saleh Abu al-Azamm, from Egypt, sent a message saying: Eight years ago, I was working in Riyadh, and I received news from my mother that she would perform the obligatory Hajj, and that I was to meet her at Jeddah Airport. I actually went to meet her and to perform the obligatory Hajj with her. Before traveling, I asked some of the brothers about how to enter the state of ihram?
They told me: Enter the state of ihram from Jeddah. Due to the tightness of time, I did not ask anyone else. So I went and met my mother, and entered the state of ihram from Jeddah. After that, my job moved to Jeddah, so I performed Hajj—praise be to Allah—twice: once on behalf of my father, and once on behalf of my grandfather. But what occupies my mind is my entering the state of ihram from Jeddah in the first instance, while I was coming from Riyadh. Is my Hajj valid or not? If it is not valid, do I have to repeat it, or do I have to pay an expiation?
Please advise us. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The Hajj is valid, but you owe one sacrificial animal as a ransom; because you left the miqat, which is Wadi Qarn, from which the people of Najd and the people of Ta'if enter the state of ihram. Because when you left the homelands intending to perform Hajj with your mother, it is obligatory for you to enter the state of ihram from the miqat of the people of Najd, which is As-Sayl, Wadi Qarn. So you owe a sacrificial animal for leaving that, to be slaughtered in Makkah. Your Hajj is valid, and praise be to Allah. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. If it happened that he had intercourse with his wife—may the Shaykh be respected—before he presented this sacrificial animal, would you advise him?

The Shaykh: It does not harm, it does not harm, no, yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you, and may Allah reward you with good.
