===The necessity of the people of Medina to enter Ihram at Shajara mosque===

According to the prevalent opinion among Shia jurists, residents of [[Medina]] must enter Ihram at Shajara mosque, and it is not permissible for them to leave the Miqat of Shajara mosque without entering Ihram and go to another Miqat like [[Juhfa]] to enter [[Ihram]] there.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 64-65.</ref>

Only for those who are excused (incapacitated or ill), is it permissible to enter Ihram from Juhfa.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 75.</ref> It has also been stated that this ruling applies to those who go from Medina to [[Dhul Hulayfa]] and pass through without entering Ihram and reach Juhfa; however, if they do not pass through Dhul-Hulayfa and exit via another route to another [[Miqat]], there is no issue, because passing through the Miqat in this manner is not conventionally considered crossing the Miqat.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_43464.html Whose duty is Ihram from Jufah?] p. 65.</ref>

===The exact location of the Miqat===

[[Dhul Hulayfa]] was the name of a large area where Shajara mosque was located.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_37980_ed97038f84c6a271f8cd14936a05d7b7.pdf Miqat on the way to Medina], p. 61.</ref>

In narratives, sometimes Shajara mosque is referred to as the [[Miqat]] for the Hajj of the people of Medina, and sometimes only the terms 'Shajara' or 'Dhul Hulayfa' are used.<ref>Fāḍil Lankarāni, ''Tafṣīl al-sharīʿa fī sharḥ Taḥrīr al-waṣīla'', vol. 3, p. 20-24.</ref>

Some believe that entering into Ihram is only valid inside Shajara mosque, while others consider it valid to enter [[Ihram]] outside the mosque but still in its vicinity.<ref>[https://miqat.hajj.ir/article_37980_ed97038f84c6a271f8cd14936a05d7b7.pdf Miqat on the way to Medina], p. 62.</ref>
