Conditions & Fundamentals of Hajj and Umrah

Q:

1. If a person is living in Jeddah for job purposes. He goes to Pakistan for one month leave (crosses the meeqat) and returns to Jeddah after one month. Now if he intends to go to Masjid ul Haram, does he need to wear ihraam or can he go for tawaf or prayers, etc.?

2. If this person goes to Madinah from Jedddah, he is crossing the meeqat, then he returns to Jeddah on the same day. Now if he goes to Masjid ul Haram, does he need to wear ihraam and first perform umrah or can he go to the Haram for tawaf and prayer, etc. without ihraam.

Q: In America, a baby gets child benefits from the government. Can the father take a loan from the child's money to perform hajj and return the debt once he has the money? The baby is na-baaligh.

Q: I frequently travel to Saudi Arabia. What if I decide to do umrah one day from Dammam to Madinah. Do I need to wear ihram from my house/hotel in Dammam or can I wear the ihram at Dammam airport also.

Q: Do thoughts that come while performing Tawaaf-e-Ziyaarah or stoning the devil cause any issue? I had few thoughts going on in my mind due to some confusion related to Salah and was blaming myself.

Q: After performing his umrah, the qaarin performs his tawaaf-e-qudoom and saee. Does he need to make ramal in the first 3 rounds of his tawaaf-e-qudoom?

Q: I am planning to go for Umrah in Ramadhaan. We will be reaching Jeddah at around 10 pm and after immigration formalities we will travel to Makkah. We will hardly be reaching around Sehri.

The problem is that we will be too tired to perform Umrah immediately. Is it possible that we will not make niyyat of ihraam and after reaching the hotel, we will take rest and then the next day in the evening after Iftar we will go to nearest miqaat place and then make niyyat of ihram and perform Umrah.

Q: Zaid has a towel ihraam which is made in such a way that there are very small holes in the ihraam cloth. When wearing the ihraam, little skin is visible from the holes. Zaid prayed salaah, did his umrah and Hajj with the above mentioned ihraam on. According to Shariah is his salaah, umrah and Hajj valid? If it isn't valid, what should be done to compensate?

Q: I am going from Riyadh to Jeddah to my friend's hotel on Friday morning. I also have a plan to perform Umrah, maybe after performing jummah prayer in Jeddah or on the next day.

My question is that when, and from where should I have to wear Ihram for Umrah?

Q: My mother's age is 59 years and she wishes to do umrah but we have financial resources of only one person to perform umrah. I do not have money to perform umrah and be a mahram for my mother. So please advise if my mother can go alone to perform umrah?

Q:

1. Zaid is going for umrah next month with his family, after performing umrah, when in Makkah Mukarramah, he plans on going to Jeddah with his family to the beach and places of tourists attractions, on returning back to Makkah Mukarramah from Jeddah, is it compulsory for the family to have Ihram on and do Umrah again?

2. In the above situation, if it's compulsory for them to do Umrah and put on Ihram, can they put on Ihram from Jeddah, if not then from which place?

3. In the above situation, is there any way or leeway in Shari'ah that when going to Jeddah from Makkah Mukarramah on returning back to Makkah Mukarramah from Jeddah, the family don't have to put on Ihram and do Umrah?
