Entering into ihraam from Musjidul Aqsa

· 14 Jumada II 1446 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

1. If one ties the ihram in Masjidul Aqsa but does not make intention for being in ihram, do they get the reward of the virtue given?

2. Also, if one is traveling from Masjidul Aqsa to Makkah Shareef but has to stop in Riyadh and then travel to Jeddah. What is their ruling on the ihram, can they wear the ihram but not make intention?

Answer

1 & 2. The virtue is for entering into ihraam from Musjidul Aqsa (i.e. making the intention for being in ihraam from Musjidul Aqsa). Hence, if they do not make the intention from Musjidul Aqsa, but delay it till they come to Riyadh, they will not receive the virtue.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
