Departing from 'Arafah before the adhan and the setting of the sun behind the mountains

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on the one who leaves 'Arafah ten minutes before the adhan, after the sun has set, having been hidden by the mountains?

The Shaykh:
What is the statement? The statement is tied to the adhan. The statement is tied to the setting of the sun. If the sun sets in the valley or in the mountains, if it sets in the valley, that means it is the last time for departing from 'Arafah. But if it sets in a mountain or on a high place, what is that? What is that? Deception? Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Whether it sets and the night comes from the east, the time for departing from 'Arafah has arrived, even if he did not hear the adhan. Is it tied to the adhan? It is tied to the setting of the sun.
