This fatwa states that the Indonesian Council of Ulama Fatwa on the Legitimacy of Jeddah as miqat remains unchanged. Therefore, King Abdul Aziz Airport is a legitimate starting point (miqat) for performing the hajj and umroh. The fatwa also states that pilgrims may carry out ihram (that is, enter the sacred state of ritual purity before performing the hajj) before arriving at the miqat. Moreover, pilgrims carrying out ihram from Indonesia should take care of their health and distance themselves from any ihram prohibitions.
