Umrah
AssalmoAlyikum,
On my way to perform Umrah from the USA, I first went to Makkah without Ihram, and then the next day I went to Masjid Aisha to enter into the state of Ihram. Was this acceptable? If not, do I have to sacrifice an animal as a dum.
If this mistake was made multiple times, Do I need to offer a separate sacrifice for each instance. If yes, is it acceptable to offer a sacrifice of a cow or a camel for multiple instances?
Please guide me.
JazakAllah Khair

It is a mistake, however, if you have done it at the instruction of some scholar, you are excuses, but if you have done it on your own, then you have to atone it with Damm, for which you can sacrifice an animal, or keep fasts, or give charity. It has to be done for every time you commit this mistake.
the amount of the atonement has been left to the discretion of people. As per a narrative quoted in Bukhārī (no. 1814), when Muḥammad (sws) was asked about it, he said that it will suffice if three fasts are kept or six poor are fed or one goat is sacrificed.
