Sahih al-Bukhari 1522 (Book 25, Hadith 10) #1461
Miqat (singular of Mawaqit) for Umra

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the Miqat (singular of Mawaqit) for people of different regions to assume Ihram for Umra.

Narrated Zaid bin Jubair: I went to visit 'Abdullah bin 'Umar at his house which contained many tents made of cotton cloth and these were encircled with Suradik (part of the tent). I asked him from where, should one assume Ihram for Umra. He said, "Allah's Messenger had fixed as Miqat (singular of Mawaqit) Qarn for the people of Najd, Dhul-Hulaifa for the people of Medina, and Al-Juhfa for the people of Sham".
حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، أَنَّهُ أَتَى عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ وَلَهُ فُسْطَاطٌ وَسُرَادِقٌ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ مِنْ أَيْنَ يَجُوزُ أَنْ أَعْتَمِرَ قَالَ فَرَضَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لأَهْلِ نَجْدٍ قَرْنًا، وَلأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ، وَلأَهْلِ الشَّأْمِ الْجُحْفَةَ‏.‏

Assume ihram from specified miqaats
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the importance of assuming Ihram from a specific place known as a Miqat or Mawaqit. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has specified three places as the Miqaats for people from different regions. For those living in Najd it is Qarn, for those living in Medina it is Dhul Hulaifa and for those living in Sham it is Al Juhfa. It is important to note that these are not just physical locations but also spiritual ones where one can prepare themselves spiritually before embarking on their journey towards Allah SWT. By assuming Ihram from these places one can ensure that they are spiritually prepared and ready to perform their pilgrimage with utmost sincerity and devotion towards Allah SWT.
