Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I performed Hajj with my family, and I did not find accommodation in Mina during the nights, so I went to Ta'if. He says: I performed Hajj with my family, and I did not find accommodation in Mina during the nights, so I went to Ta'if for the three days. What is obligatory for me in this matter?

Answer:
It is obligatory for you to stay with the pilgrims, on the edge of the pilgrims, even if it is outside Mina, because this is what you are able to do. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:
So fear Allah as much as you are ableفَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
[At-Taghabun 64:16]
Stay with the pilgrims, even if they are outside Mina, like the mosque; if it becomes crowded, they pray for them in the streets. Pray with them out of necessity. So your going to Ta'if was a mistake, but it does not obligate you to pay a fidyah. Yes.
