The ruling on one who does not stay overnight at Muzdalifah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I could not find a group whose price is suitable for me except one that stays overnight at Muzdalifah. He stays overnight at Muzdalifah. He says: Is it permissible for me to stay overnight at Muzdalifah with this group?
The Shaykh:
If you are unable to stay overnight at Muzdalifah, it is dropped from you if you are unable. However, your Hajj is incomplete as long as it is voluntary and extra. So you should postpone the Hajj until it becomes easy for you to perform a complete Hajj with no deficiency. Yes. As for permissibility, it is permissible if you are unable to stay overnight at Muzdalifah. Yes. Even if you come to Muzdalifah on foot and stay there for most of the night, then return to your place, that is required of you. But if you are unable to go down there and unable to come to it at night, then you are excused. Yes.
The questioner:
And where, O Shaykh? Yes, in Mina or Muzdalifah.
The Shaykh:
In Mina or Muzdalifah, it is all the same. Yes, staying overnight is required in all of them. Yes.
