Travel on the afternoon of the twelfth day and its effect on stoning the pillars and the farewell circumambulation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the brothers says that questions about this topic are frequent. It is that some pilgrims travel on the afternoon of the 12th of Dhul-Hijjah. What should they do regarding the stoning on the 12th and the farewell tawaf in Makkah, knowing that such people, or most of them, cannot postpone due to their bookings?
Answer:
A booking does not govern worship. Worship must follow its prescribed legal course. So, let the booking be arranged to complete the worship. What harm is there if it is delayed? If he misses the Hajj, there are many flights to book, but if his Hajj is deficient, what will compensate for it? Nothing will compensate for it except that he performs what he left behind.
It is not permissible for him to go on the twelfth day and leave off the farewell tawaf and leave off the rest of the stoning; this is not permissible for him until he is done, until he is done with his Hajj, namely[Al-Baqarah 2:203] which is the two days after the day of 'Id, the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth. Whoever hastens in two days, meaning on the twelfth, and completes his Hajj by hastening, he does not commit a violation. Or he delays, which is better, the thirteenth, and he does not leave until he performs the farewell tawaf. They were commanded that their last visit be to the House, meaning the farewell tawaf, except that it was made easier for the menstruating woman.
