The ruling on assuming Ihram from the city of Jeddah for the people of At-Ta'if

Question :

What is the ruling on whoever comes from At-Ta'if to Jeddah to stay there until the time of Hajj and when he comes he intends to perform Hajj during that year? His coming (to Jeddah) is during the months of Hajj and he assumed Thram from Jeddah for Hajj or 'Umrah.

Answer:

The apparent evidences of the Islamic legislation prove that this person must return and assume Ihram from the Miqat of At-Ta'if if he intends to perform Hajj or 'Umrah. This is because he passed it without Ihram while he was intending to perform Hajj. Whoever does not do so and he assumes Ihram from Jeddah, then he must sacrifice an animal, which must be slaughtered in Makkah for the poor people.

However, if he had no intentions to perform Hajj or 'Umrah when he passed the Miqat, there is no harm in his assuming his Ihram from Jeddah for Hajj or 'Umrah. This is due to the Prophet's statement:

"They are for them and whoever passes by them from other than their people, from those who intend to perform Hajj or 'Umrah. So, whoever is closer (to Makkah) than that, then his place of Ihram is from his people (where he lives). Even the people of Makkah assume Ihram from Makkah."
