Renting places in Mina at high prices and staying outside of it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is this person required to resume his search on the second night, or is it sufficient for him to rely on his search on the first night?
The Shaykh:
A fortiori, the crowding is not greater. Better.
Another questioner:
People reserve places in Mina and then rent them out to those who come for Hajj and cannot find a place, at exorbitant prices, eighty thousand from the guaranteed.
The Shaykh:
And he gathers them, and it continues.
The questioner:
Shaykh, he rented it for eighty thousand.
The Shaykh:
Renting is obligatory.
The questioner:
Because with his burden, and he found no place, he said, you must put us down.
The Shaykh:
In this haste, you are.
The questioner:
Eight thousand.
The Shaykh:
You may have transgressed the limits of Allah, they do not monopolize it.
The questioner:
A lot, Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
He sits outside Mina and there is no harm, and he does not rent; he only needs lodging, he does not need to rent.
The questioner:
By Allah, he rented it for a million.
The Shaykh:
Look, I mean.
The questioner:
The campaigns are completed.
The Shaykh:
There is no power or strength except by Allah.
The questioner:
They buy it for them for a million.
The Shaykh:
I seek refuge in Allah, it is illicit. First of all.
The questioner:
And when you go to tell them why the rent is a million, or eighty, or a hundred, he says, I did not rent every place, I rented the tents and the utilities.
The Shaykh:
This trick these days sets up the tents.
The questioner:
Yes, I understand, they set up the tents and rent them out in this manner.
The Shaykh:
So that they prevent people from accessing them.
The questioner:
He prevented and between him.
The Shaykh:
They got it.
The questioner:
Sometimes he makes a financial contract with expensive rent, and when Hajj ends, he says this is an invalid condition, we ask you to forgive it, so he does not give you anything, then he leaves him biting his fingers in regret, give us. He takes half the amount and gives it to him, and the half after the completion of his benefits. Yes, this.
The Shaykh:
At the court, if it is done, and he takes the court.
