What is obligatory upon those coming overland from Jordan to perform Umrah who intended to stay overnight in Madinah and then proceed to Makkah, but could not find accommodation in Madinah, so they continued their journey to Jeddah and stayed there for 3 or 4 days, then entered into ihram from Jeddah? Are they considered residents and should they enter into ihram from their son's house in Jeddah, or is it obligatory upon them to go out to the miqat? And which miqat? And is anything required of them if they did something out of ignorance?
The pilgrims were obligated to pass through the of Dhul-Hulayfah and enter into from it when they passed by it. This is the view of the majority of scholars. The Malikis permitted entering into Ihram from Al-Juhfah for the people of Syria.
Whoever passes by Dhul-Hulayfah but not through its route is not obligated to enter into Ihram from it; rather, he enters into Ihram from the first Miqat he passes through.
If they entered into Ihram from Jeddah, they have, by consensus, left a waajib (obligatory act), and they must offer a sacrifice (dam) to be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed among its poor, because Jeddah is not a Miqat for anyone.
Menstruation does not prevent one from entering into Ihram, but a menstruating woman does not circumambulate the Kaaba until she becomes pure.
