What is the ruling for one who does not find a place in Mina? Is it permissible for him to stay outside Mina?

The questioner : This questioner asks: What is the ruling on staying outside Mina due to the crowds? That is, he did not find a place in Mina. Yes, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : If a person does not find a place in Mina, he should stay at the last tent, even if it is outside Mina. This is based on the saying of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He: And he is unable to stay in Mina as long as it is full.
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation to the shepherds to leave the overnight stay in Mina because they were occupied with tending the camels. He also granted a dispensation to his uncle, al-Abbas ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib, to stay overnight in Makkah for the sake of fetching water from Zamzam out of need. This indicates that the overnight stay in Mina is not obligatory when one is unable to do it.
If he stays outside Mina at the last tent, he is not required to enter Mina when the sun sets and stay on the pavement, or to beg people to let him enter their tents. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh, and may Allah bless you.
