The ruling on the supplication of stipulation at the miqat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner also asks in his questions: There is a supplication recited at the miqat, which is: "If something prevents me, then my place of completion is where I am prevented." Is this supplication authentic? Why is this supplication recited? Is there any legal evidence for it?
Answer:
Yes, this is authentic and has authentic evidence. However, the correct ruling is that it is not said except by one who fears that he will not be able to complete the rites due to illness. He says this because the reason for the hadith is that Aisha, the daughter of 'Abd al-Muttalib's brother, said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "I want to perform Hajj, but I find myself unwell, meaning sick." He said to her (peace and blessings be upon him): "Perform Hajj and make a stipulation. Say: 'If something prevents me, then my place of completion is where I am prevented.'" This means that she exits the state of ihram and owes nothing in any place where she is prevented from completing the rites. She exits the state of ihram and owes nothing, acting in accordance with her stipulation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan an-Nasa'i 2766Hasan (Darussalam) Yes.
