The Criterion for an Excuse in Delaying Arrival at Muzdalifah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If he arrives there at the second hour of the night, two hours before the dawn, is that sufficient for him?
Answer:
The shortest time is most of the night. However, if one is delayed due to a legitimate excuse, such as being delayed on the road to Muzdalifah, he is excused. The delay might be on the road, or he might miss the time at Muzdalifah itself; in that case, he is excused. Fear Allah. If the cars break down and they are stuck on the road, and they do not reach Muzdalifah until dawn or morning, are they excused? What is the criterion for the excuse, O Shaykh? What is the criterion for the excuse? Inability to come. Yes. Yes.
