It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم designated Dhul-Hulaifah as the MIqat for the people of Al Madinah, Al-Juhfah for the people of Ash-Sham, Qarn for the people of Najd, and Yalamlam for the people of Yemen. He said: “They are for them, and for anyone who comes to them from elsewhere. If a person’s place of residence is within the boundary of the MIqat, then (he should enter into Ihram) from where he starts his journey, and this also applies to the people of Makkah.” (Sahih)
