Wearing iḥrām before reaching mīqāt is invalid. If a person passes the mīqāt without wearing iḥrām on purpose or due to ignorance or negligence, he should return to the place of mīqāt and wear iḥrām from there. If a person passes the mīqāt without wearing iḥrām due to negligence, forgetfulness or ignorance of the ruling, and he cannot return to the place of mīqāt due to shortage of time or another excuse while he has not entered the Ḥaram, on the basis of obligatory caution, he should go back towards mīqāt as much as possible and wear iḥrām from there. If he has entered the Ḥaram, he should exit the Ḥaram. In case, he cannot exit Ḥaram due to shortage of time or the like, he should wear iḥrām inside the Ḥaram where the excused (negligence, forgetfulness or ignorance of the ruling) is removed. | Wearing iḥrām before reaching mīqāt is invalid.

In normal condition, it is not permissible to delay in wearing iḥrām whether there is another mīqāt in front of him or not. If a person is prevented from wearing iḥrām in one of the mīqāts, he is allowed to wear iḥrām from another mīqāt. If a person avoids wearing iḥrām intentionally and he is unable to return to mīqāt due to shortage of time or another excuse and there is no other mīqāt ahead of him, and as a consequence the time for performing 'umra is too short, he has missed 'umra and his hajj is invalid. If he is still mustaṭī' or hajj has become obligatory for him [even after losing istiṭā'a], he should perform hajj next year. | |||
Jeddah is not considered as mīqāt nor parallel to any mīqāt. Therefore, wearing iḥrām for 'umra al-tamattu' from this place in normal conditions is invalid. Moreover, it is obligatory for every one to go to one of mīqāts to wear iḥrām. In case, he is unable to go to mīqāt points, on the basis of obligatory caution, he should wear iḥrām by nadhr from Jeddah. | |||
If a person after wearing iḥrām and exit mīqāt, becomes aware that his/her iḥrām is incorrect, it is obligatory for him to go to a mīqāt and wear iḥrām, if possible. If he cannot do so except after entering Mecca, he must wear iḥrām from Adna l-Ḥill with the intention of al-'umra al-mufrada and after performing rituals of al-'umra al-mufrada, he must go back to one of the mīqāts and wear iḥrām for 'umra al-tamattu'. | |||
However, on the basis of mustaḥabb caution, it is better not to do so except for dire need or emergency. On the basis of caution, firstly he should wear iḥrām for hajj and then he may exit the holy city of Mecca. If wearing iḥrām would cause hardship, he may exit the holy city of Mecca without iḥrām. Those people who want to observe this caution and are compelled to exit the holy city of Mecca once or more e.g. the workers of caravans, may perform 'umra | |||

Those people who want to observe this caution and are compelled to exit the holy city of Mecca once or more e.g. the workers of caravans, may perform al-'umra al-mufrada first and perform 'umra al-tamattu' just before becoming muḥrim for hajj. In this case, they should wear iḥrām for 'umra al-tamattu' from the mīqāt and after performing 'umra al-tamattu', they should wear iḥrām for hajj from the holy city of Mecca. | |||
Criterion of exiting the holy city of Mecca between 'umra al-tamattu' and hajj is to depart from the current city of Mecca. Therefore, visiting a place which is now considered a part of the holy city of Mecca though was not considered a part of the holy city of Mecca in the past will not be considered exiting Mecca. | |||
For a person who has performed 'umra al-tamattu' and exited Mecca without wearing iḥrām, if he returns to Mecca during the same month in which he has performed 'umra, there is no need to wear iḥrām again for entering in the holy city of Mecca. If this person returns in the next month of performing, e.g. if he performs 'umra in the month of Dhu l-Qa'da, departs from Mecca, and return to the holy city of Mecca during the month of Dhu l-Ḥijja, or if he performs 'umra in the month of Dhu l-Qa'da, departs in the month of Dhu l-Ḥijja and returns again, it is obligatory for him to wear iḥrām for 'umra again in order to enter into the holy city of Mecca and his 'umra al-tamattu' which is connected with hajj will be his second 'umra al-tamattu'. If he does not wear iḥrām again and perform second 'umra, his hajj al-tamattu' is not valid. | |||
On the basis of obligatory caution, one should not perform al-'umra al-mufrada after performing 'umra al-tamattu' and prior to hajj al-tamattu'. But if he performs it, it does not make 'umra and hajj al-tamattu' invalid. | |||
