Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There are questions regarding this great pillar that have reached us via the program's telephone line and via WhatsApp. One of the brothers asks: Honorable Shaykh, about the Companion who was gored by his she-camel during the journey. Was he at 'Arafah or at Mina? And what is the story of that?
Answer:
The story is that a man in the state of ihram was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at 'Arafah, riding on his she-camel and standing at 'Arafah. He fell from his she-camel, and it gored him, meaning it stabbed him with its hoof, and he died. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shroud him in his two garments, meaning his two garments of ihram. Shroud him in his two garments, and do not cover his head, meaning do not cover him and do not apply perfume to him, for he will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection while reciting the talbiyah." This is the origin of this story, which occurred in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
