Miqaat

Q: Years ago I made umrah and then I made an overnight visit to Taif. Was I suppose to perform another umrah on my return to Makkah?

Q: I came for umrah from Dubai by road. Now I am in Madina. Can I go to Jeddah and than tie ihraam from Jeddah’s meeqat and then go for umrah?

Q: Can one go into ihram in Jeddah and then go to Makkah for umrah?

Q: A family coming from Taaif entered the meeqaat without ihraam, then they left the meeqaat and re-entered it from Masjid Sayyidah Aaishah with ihraam. What would be the ruling in this case? Would they have to give damm?

Q: I am from Pakistan and I am here to perform umrah. My first 3 umrahs are done successfully but when I was coming from Madina after living 10 days on the meeqat. I didn’t wear ihram because I make my mind that I will perform umrah after one day. After one day I will go to Ayesha Mosque and wear ihram from that place. Do I have to give dam since I didn’t wear ihram from the madinah meeqat?

Q: I performed umrah a couple of days ago. I was travelling from Madina to Makkah and I was sure ( i had نیت in my heart) about umrah. At Dhul-Hulaifah I put on two sheets (dress of ehraam) and offered two rakat nafil but I forget to say TALBIYA.

I departed for Makkah after performing nawafil of ehraam and after 5-10 minutes travelling I remembered about talbiya and I said the talbiya and niyat by tongue then and there. Is my umrah correct or do I have to pay any penalty/sadaqah?

Q: I intend performing umrah next week Wednesday. I will be staying in Makkah for 5 days i.e. Wednesday to Sunday. I will be returning home on Monday. Am I allowed to visit Madinah just to convey my Salaam to Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) for just one day (Saturday) and return back to Makkah without donning ihram or performing another umrah again? 

Q: I am going for umrah next week insha-Allah. I am a female. I am going to Makkah first. Do I have to don the ihraam on the plane when they make the announcement that we are passing the miqaat or is it okay to reach Makkah and then go back to the miqaat and don the ihraam?

Q: 3 weeks ago I came from Pakistan to Riyadh. Now I went from Riyadh to Jeddah to my brothers house but I didn't wear ihram and I didn't take any niyyat for Umrah. I was thinking that I will go for Umrah after 3-4 days. But now my father says that I have to give damm (penalty) because I supposed to go for Umrah first. I am in confusion about this issue.

Q: If a person coming from Australia on a tourist visa to Saudi Arabia, to his parents and performs umrah also, how may days he should stay in Jeddah to become a muqeem and make ihraam from Jeddah to perfom umrah?
