Taking Sticks from the Trees at 'Arafah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: When we descended to 'Arafah, we found a small acacia tree, so we took some small sticks from it for tying things. Is there anything wrong with this? Also, many pilgrims used to take from the trees found there. Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you.
Answer:
'Arafah is not part of the Haram; 'Arafah is in the permitted area, not the Haram. So, taking from its trees is fine, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
