The ruling on leaving Muzdalifah after midnight with women
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on one who hastens to leave Muzdalifah after midnight because he has women with him?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation for the weak to depart from their homeland at night. The latter half is after the moon has set. So if he departs at night with his family, there is no harm. Those with him have the same ruling as him. They have the stoning of the pillars and the night, and they proceed to Makkah for the circumambulation, because they may fear that menstruation or something similar will befall the woman. So if they proceed and perform the circumambulation, there is no harm. The remaining rites of the pilgrimage remain for them, such as the stoning and the issue of the specific [ritual]. If the man shaves his head on the way to Makkah or in Makkah, or shortens his hair, and the woman shortens her hair, the state of ihram is completed. And he performs the stoning, circumambulation, and sa'y if he has not yet done his sa'y, and the woman shortens her hair, the state of ihram is completed. However, shaving is better for the man. Yes.
