Sunan an-Nasai 2658 (Book 24, Hadith 40) #17269
Designation of Miqats for Hajj and 'Umrah

SUMMARY: The Prophet designated four Miqats (boundaries) for people of different regions to enter Ihram from when intending to perform Hajj or 'Umrah.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet designated Dhul-Hulaifah as the Miqat for the people of Al-Madinah, Al-Juhfah for the people of Ash-Shamham, yalamlam for the people of Yemen, and Qarn for the people of Najd. They are for them and for those who pass by them who are not of their people, intending to perform Hajj or 'Umrah. If a person's place of residence is within the boundary of they Miqat, then (he should enter Ihram) from where he starts his journey, and this also applies to the people of Makkah.
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ وَقَّتَ لأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ وَلأَهْلِ الشَّامِ الْجُحْفَةَ وَلأَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ يَلَمْلَمَ وَلأَهْلِ نَجْدٍ قَرْنًا فَهُنَّ لَهُمْ وَلِمَنْ أَتَى عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَهْلِهِنَّ مِمَّنْ كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ فَمَنْ كَانَ دُونَهُنَّ فَمِنْ أَهْلِهِ حَتَّى أَنَّ أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ يُهِلُّونَ مِنْهَا

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad designated four boundaries known as the Miqats for people of different regions who are intending to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah. These four boundaries are Dhul-Hulaifah for the people of Al-Madinah, Al-Juhfah for the people of Ash-Shamham, Yalamlam for the people of Yemen and Qarn for the people of Najd. These boundaries are not only applicable to those living in these areas but also those who pass by them on their way to performing either Hajj or ‘Umrah. If a person’s place of residence is within one these boundary lines then they should enter Ihram from where they start their journey and this applies even to those living in Makkah. This hadith teaches us that it is important to follow Islamic regulations when performing religious duties such as Hajj and ‘Umram so that we can gain maximum reward from Allah SWT.
