LessonsChapter on the Mīqāts: Five Stations and Entering IḥrāmQuiz

لِأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ذُو الْحُلَيْفَةِ، وَلِأَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ ذَاتُ عِرْقٍ، وَلِأَهْلِ الشَّامِ الْجُحْفَةُ
Translation: For people travelling by the Medina route: Dhū al-Ḥulayfah; the Iraq route: Dhāt ʿIrq; and the Syria route: al-Juḥfah.

The first three are Dhū al-Ḥulayfah, Dhāt ʿIrq, and al-Juḥfah, named for classical regional approach routes.

A pilgrim’s present-day nationality is not necessarily the deciding factor: the route actually travelled determines the relevant station or its alignment.
