Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Why is the Day of Tarwiyah called by this name? And what is prescribed for this day?
Answer:
The Day of Tawriyah is the eighth day of Dhu al-Hijjah. It was given this name because the pilgrims in times past would fill their water skins for Mina, 'Arafah, and Muzdalifah. There was no water on the pilgrims' route, unlike in our present time. When this blessed state organized the water supply on the pilgrims' route from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah to Mina, there is no longer any need to fill water skins, praise be to Allah. However, the name remained. The one who intends to perform Hajj enters the state of ihram; it is recommended that he enters ihram on the eighth day, goes to Mina, and stays there on the night of the ninth. Then he proceeds to 'Arafah on the morning of the ninth. Yes.
