The ruling on heading to 'Arafah on the eighth day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on one who heads to 'Arafah on the eighth day on the grounds of being elderly or ill?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, but the best is to spend the night in Mina; that is the best. If he goes to 'Arafah on that night, there is nothing wrong with it, and he would be leaving a recommended practice (sunnah) that is not obligatory. Yes.
