Ruling on changing ihram garments while in the state of ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I entered the state of ihram from the city of Jeddah for Hajj, and I wanted to replace the ihram garments I had worn initially because they were too loose. Is this permissible?
Answer:
There is no harm in changing the garments on the night of ihram for both men and women. There is no harm in replacing them with new ones or washed ones. There is absolutely no harm in that.
As for his entering ihram from Jeddah, this requires detailed explanation:
If he is a resident of Jeddah, there is nothing wrong with it. But if he is someone who came to Jeddah intending to perform Hajj and 'Umrah, he is not permitted to enter ihram from there. Rather, he must enter ihram from the miqat he passes through. The one who comes from Egypt, the Levant, or the West must enter ihram from al-Juhfah or Rabi'ah. The one who comes from Najd or similar regions must enter ihram from Wadi al-Qarn, and so on. He is not permitted to enter ihram from Jeddah. Rather, he is obligated to enter ihram from the miqat he passes through, whether by air, land, or sea.
However, if he is a resident of Jeddah or someone residing there for work or similar reasons, and then when the time for Hajj came, he resolved to perform Hajj, he enters ihram from there just like others. This is like the resident of Umm al-Salam, the resident of Bahrah, and the resident of al-Sharai'. Each person enters ihram from his own location. This is based on the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he mentioned the miqats, where he said:Sahih Muslim 1181a, then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 1845.

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 'Umra
هنَّ لهنَّ ولمن أتى عليهنَّ من غير أهلهنَّ ممن أراد الحج أو العمرةAnd those living inside these Mawaqit can assume Ihram from the place where they start; even the people of Mecca can assume Ihram from Mecca.
ومَن كان دون ذلك فمهلّه من حيث أنشأ، حتى أهل مكة من مكة
