Analogy of departing from Muzdalifah to departing from 'Arafah before sunset

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the presence of wine from the previous night until the dawn of the next day analogous to the presence of standing at 'Arafah until the festival, such that it is considered breaking the fast during the day, and that whoever departs from it before the dawn of the next day is like the one who departed from 'Arafah before sunset?

Answer:
No analogy is needed; there is a text on this matter. The text is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) stood until the dawn of the next day, along with those with him. This is a text that does not require analogy. Therefore, many distinguished scholars, such as Ibn al-Qayyim, stated that it is obligatory for the strong to stay overnight until the dawn of the next day. If the situation requires them to depart with the weak due to the weak's need for them, they may depart, but they do not throw the pebbles until after the sun has risen. This is what Ibn al-Qayyim holds in *Zad al-Ma'ad*, and it has a strong aspect. Yes.
Yes, according to the opinion chosen by Ibn al-Qayyim, if one throws the pebbles before the sun rises, a sacrificial animal is required of him. Likewise, if he departs, it is permissible for him to depart if his weak companions need him; there is no harm in departing with them. Yes.
