Whoever bypasses them without ihram has wronged himself. The Ahadith have clarified these Miqats for the people of each region, including Dhul-Hulaifah for the people of Madinah, Al-Juhfah for the people of Ash-Sham, Qarn Al-Manazil for the people of Najd, Yalamlam for the people of Yemen, and Dhat Irq for the people of Iraq. It is obligatory to assume ihram from these Miqats or when in line with them, whether by land, sea, or air. It is recommended to perform (ritual bath), apply perfume, and wear the ihram garments before reaching them, and to assume ihram when in line with them or slightly before that, especially on an airplane due to its speed.
