The Best Place for Prayer on the Day of 'Arafah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : From the perspective of praying behind the imam in the caravans, they pray it, and some people encounter problems or other issues. They need to think for a long time, then sit, then deal with the crowding, and then return.

The Shaykh : By Allah, we see that a person should pray in his place. Because reaching the mosque involves great difficulty, and some people may get lost. So, it is better for him to pray in his place with his brothers.

The questioner : They have a verse that shows you.

The Shaykh : If he is close to the mosque and it does not burden him, there is no doubt that praying in the mosque is better because there are more people.
