The ruling on one who departs before sunset by a few minutes and then returns to the camp
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: My brother was in a hurry, but he went to throw the pebbles at the Jamarat today before sunset, then he returned here, to your camp, five minutes before the sun set. Is that sufficient, or does he have to go out?
Answer:
If he went out for five minutes, he has departed. If the sun set on him and he did not go out, he remains in Mina until he is informed tomorrow. If he went out five minutes before the sun set, and the sun set while he was on the road, he owes nothing; he is not required to return. However, if he did not go out except after sunset, he is required to return if he did not stay for the night. If he went out before sunset, it is valid. If he returned after sunset while he was walking, it is valid; he is not required to return.
