Leaving 'Arafah before sunset and what is required in that

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says that he performed the obligatory Hajj last year, but some errors occurred for him, Honorable Shaykh, in that he left 'Arafah early. What is required of him in that?

Answer:
If he left 'Arafah before sunset and did not return to it, then he owes a fidyah (ransom payment), because he abandoned an obligatory act of Hajj. He must slaughter a sheep in Makkah that is acceptable as an udhiyah (sacrifice), and distribute its meat to the poor of the Haram (sacred precinct). Yes.
