Entering the Noble Makkah without entering the state of ihram after being absent from it for forty days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first and second questions of Fatwa No. ( 21515 )
Q1: What is the ruling on entering the Noble Makkah without entering the state of ihram after being absent from it for forty days , and what is the authenticity of the hadith regarding this: that whoever enters it without entering the state of ihram after forty days is a sinner against Allah the Exalted and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)?
A1 : There is no harm in entering Makkah without entering the state of ihram for one who does not intend to perform Hajj or 'Umrah; because when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) designated the miqat boundaries, he said:
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
This indicates that it is permissible for one who does not intend to perform Hajj or 'Umrah to pass them without entering the state of ihram
