The ruling on going back and forth between At-Ta'if and Jeddah for work without assuming Ihram


Question :

There is an employee who decided to perform Hajj, but he has jobs to do in At-Ta'if that cause him to have to go back and forth between At-Ta'if and Jeddah without Ihram.


Answer:

There is no harm in that, because between his going back and forth from At-Ta'if to Jeddah he does not intend to make Hajj or 'Umrah. He only wants to fulfill his need. However, whoever knows that during his final trip from At- Ta'if that he will not return to At-Ta'if before Hajj, then he must assume Ihram from the Miqat for 'Umrah or Hajj. However, if he does not know beforehand and he coincidentally comes upon. the time of Hajj while he is in Jeddah, then he assumes Ihram from Jeddah for Hajj and there is no sin on him. In this case his ruling is the ruling of those who stay in Jeddah who come there for some work and they do not intend to perform Hajj or 'Umrah when they pass the Miqat.
