Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I went for Hajj and did not stay overnight in Mina on the two nights, except for two hours before Fajr. He asks: Is there anything required of me?

Answer:

If you arrive at the end of the night and remain there, and you pray Fajr there, as in the hadith of 'Urwah ibn al-Mudharris when he came to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was at Muzdalifah and informed him that he had not left any mountain without standing on it, and so on until the end. He said (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever catches our prayer and remains with us until we depart, then he has caught
Whether at night or during the day, he has completed his Hajj and fulfilled his obligationsعرفة ليلا أو نهارا، فقد أدى حجه وقضى تفثه
." So if you catch the end of the night and pray Fajr there, the obligatory act is accomplished, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
