Related to Ihram:
Some pilgrims
bypass the designated Station of ihram on their route without
either being in Ihram or entering into ihram there, proceeding
until they reach Jeddah or some other place within the precincts
of the Stations, at which they enter into ihram. This is against
the command of Allah’s Messenger (peace be on him), which
stipulates that every pilgrim should enter into ihram at the
Station of ihram which lies on his route.
If this happens to someone, he must either go back to the Station
of ihram lying on his route and there enter into ihram, or he
must make expiation by sacrificing a sheep in Makkah and feeding
all its meat to the poor.
This applies to all pilgrims regardless of whether one passes the
Station of ihram by air, by sea or by land.
If one did not pass
through one of the five designated Station of ihram he should
enter into ihram at a point which is nearest to the Station of
ihram on his route.
