The ruling on staying overnight in Mina on the nights of the eleventh and twelfth of Dhu al-Hijjah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Honorable Shaykh Muhammad, we would like to inquire about the ruling on staying overnight in Mina on the nights of the eleventh and twelfth of Dhu al-Hijjah, O Shaykh?
Answer : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions, and whoever follows them in excellence until the Day of Judgment. Staying overnight in Mina on the nights of the eleventh and twelfth is among the obligatory acts of Hajj. It is not permissible for the pilgrim to leave it.
It is a recommended practice (sunnah) for the pilgrim to remain in Mina by night and by day, beginning with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
Do not do what some people do today, such as coming to Mina at night and going to their homes during the day. This is a deficient state, without a doubt. If it is sufficient, it is still deficient.
Some people say, "I do this because it is more comfortable for me." It is said to them: May Allah make the Sunnah better for you. You have come to this place to worship Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He). It is not for luxury. No.
It is not for showing off, but rather you have come for worship. And if you have come for worship, do it as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) did it, and restrain yourself, for it is only two days. So staying overnight becomes obligatory, and remaining by night and day is the best, the most complete, and the most in accordance with the Messenger
