7/7

It is permitted for those intending Hajj to adopt Ihraam before

reaching one of these sites. This is the best practice, provided

one is sure in himself that he will not engage in any of the

forbidden acts of Ihraam.

If one is a resident in the country of Hajj, but lives closer to

Makkah than the sites of Ihraam, then his Miqaat is any place

he chooses on the way to Makkah. It is not permitted for him

to enter the vicinity of al-Haram with the intention of Hajj or

Umrah, unless he first observes Ihraam.
