حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَعُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَابْنُ عَوْنٍ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ أَيْنَ يُحْرِمُ قَالَ مُهَلُّ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ ذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ وَمُهَلُّ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ مِنْ الْجُحْفَةِ وَمُهَلُّ أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ مِنْ يَلَمْلَمَ وَمُهَلُّ أَهْلِ نَجْدٍ مِنْ قَرْنٍ و قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَقَاسَ النَّاسُ ذَاتَ عِرْقٍ بِقَرْنٍ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 4455
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that a man asked the Prophet (PBUH) where he should enter ihram from. He said: The miqaat of the people of Madinah is Dhu'l-Hulayfah, the miqaat of the people of Syria is al-Juhfah, the miqaat of the people of Yemen is Yalamlam, and the miqaat of the people of Najd is Qarn." Ibn 'Umar said: By analogy, the people took Dhaat 'Irq as being parallel to Qarn
