The ruling on one who passes the miqat to stay in Jeddah first

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some of those coming from outside the Kingdom, when they arrive in Jeddah, say, "We will sit in Jeddah for three days, then we will enter the state of ihram from the miqat?"

Answer:
They are obligated to return to the miqat and enter the state of ihram from the miqat. When they are coming for Hajj or 'Umrah, they are obligated to return so that they enter the state of ihram from the miqat. It is not permissible for them to pass the miqat. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
So, these (above mentioned) are the Mawaqit for all those living at those places, and besides them for those who come through those places with the intention of performing Hajj and `Umraهن لهن ولمن أتى عليهن من غير أهلهن لمن أراد الحج أو العمرة
Sahih al-Bukhari 1526
So if they intend Hajj or 'Umrah and pass by the miqat, they must enter the state of ihram from it. If they pass it, they must return to it. If they refuse and do not return, they are obligated to offer a sacrificial animal.
