Wearing Ehram
Question
Assalamwaalykum,
My question is, after performing my Umrah, I wish to visit Madinah for staying there few days and ziyarat, and again i wish to return to Makkah (no intention to perform umrah again), just to stay for Ibadat and Ziyarat in Makkah and after staying there, I wish to return to my home country. In this case – during second visit – when I am again entering Makkah from Madinah, again i have to wear Ehram to enter Makkah? As my Umrah has completed during first visit and during second visit in Makkah, my intention is not performing Umrah.
Need your guidence, as some says not required and some advise to wear ehram
Answer
Wa’alaykum as Salām wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuhu,
It is essential for a person to wear Iḥrām and perform ‘Umrah every time he enters Makkah from outside the Mīqāt. This requirement applies regardless of the reason or intention for entering Makkah.
Hence, you should wear Iḥrām and perform ‘Umrah each time you re-enter Makkah after visiting Madinah or any other location outside the Mīqāt.
And Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala knows best.
