Ihram for Air Travelers
Pilgrims from Pakistan or any other country while making their journey by aeroplane should don Ihram at their residence or at the most at the airport since the air journey usually is of short duration. Some pilgrims board the aircraft without Ihram, they should be in know that each aeroplane before landing at Jeddah airport crosses the Meeqat. In such situation those who intend to go to Mak`kah from Jeddah should put on their Ihram before boarding the aeroplane, otherwise they will have to sacrifice an animal as immolation (Dum) as compensation for breaking the Divine law of crossing Meeqat without Ihram. Yet those who intend to go to Madina from Jeddah, in first instance, can proceed in their usual dress. They can put on Ihram while coming from Madina to Mak`kah at Bir-e-Ali Meeqat.
