The ruling on one who did not pray the midday and afternoon prayers at 'Arafah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings. I intended to perform the Hajj sacrifice on the Day of 'Arafah at Dhuhr. I entered the state of ihram and went to the miqat. I prayed Dhuhr and 'Asr with the congregation, combining and shortening them. Then I set out for 'Arafah. I prayed at three o'clock; it was three in the afternoon, and I did not pray Dhuhr or 'Asr in 'Arafah. Then I slept until that time.

The Shaykh:
I prayed before [the time], combining by advancing the prayer.

The questioner:
Yes, he asks about one who did not pray the midday prayer in the open area?

The Shaykh:
No benefit. Praying in the rear of the congregation for the midday and afternoon prayers is a recommended practice, not obligatory. As long as he prayed in any place, praise be to Allah. Yes.
