Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: We went down to Makkah and stayed in a good place to rest until eleven o'clock, then we went down to the Haram, performed the Tawaf of Ifadah, and did the Sa'y.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
We went down to Makkah and stayed in a good place to rest until eleven o'clock, then we went down to the Haram, performed the Tawaf of Ifadah, and did the Sa'y. We arrived in Mina at two-thirty in the morning and slept for the last hour before Fajr. Is there anything required of us? Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
We hope that nothing is required of him, just as if he arrived at Muzdalifah at the end of the night. However, it is obligatory for a person to intend to stay for the majority of the night and strive to be there for the majority of the night. But if he arrives at the end of the night, there is no blame on him, if Allah wills. If he appears in Mina at the beginning of the night, he owes a sacrifice. But as long as he arrived at the end of the night, that is the most important thing, just as if he arrived at Muzdalifah at the end of the night, that is sufficient. Yes.
