The beginning and end of the time for standing at 'Arafah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, may Allah keep you safe, is an Algerian resident in the Kingdom. He asks: When does the time for ascending to 'Arafah begin, and when does it end?

Answer:
The ascent has no specific beginning, but standing at 'Arafah begins from the passing of the sun at its zenith (zawal) on the Day of 'Arafah, from the passing of the sun at its zenith, the entry of the time for the midday prayer (Zuhr). The time for standing begins then, and ends with the appearance of the dawn (Fajr) on the night of the festival.
