This question is on behalf of my grandparents. They came on a visit visa to Saudi Arabia. They wore their ihraam 2 days after reaching Jeddah when they were going for Umrah. They want to know if it was compulsory for them to wear ihraam when they started their journey. If yes,what is the expiation for this?
