The questioner:
Here is the blessed flat area near al-Hil, she said. She prayed in this blessed valley. Is this a recommended practice?
The Shaykh:
He wanted to enter the state of ihram. In the precinct of the Haram, from Makkah to al-Hijlah, the recommended practice is to pray at al-Hijlah and then enter the state of ihram. Its location is in the same mosque. It is well known, the place of passing in worship is well known, so the spending is not around it, meaning the valley, no.
