I have a brother and his father who participated in a Hajj group, and they were bound by the terms of this group. When it was time to depart from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah, they departed, but they did not arrive until the call to Fajr prayer. What is the ruling for them? They were in the bus, so they were unable to stop it or get off.The Shaykh: Did they arrive with the early Fajr call, before the day had risen?The questioner: They arrived at the time of the call.
The Shaykh: The important thing is: did Fajr not break?The questioner: Yes, Fajr had not broken.
The correct position in this issue: If a person is prevented by a restraining factor and does not reach Muzdalifah until the time of the early Fajr prayer, and he prays Fajr there, then he owes nothing.And its evidence: The hadith of 'Urwah ibn Muddaris (may Allah be pleased with him) when he caught up with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Muzdalifah during the Fajr prayer.So he said: (O Messenger of Allah! I came from Tayy, and I exhausted my mount, so I did not pass a mountain without stopping at it,So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Whoever witnessed our prayer, and stood with us until we depart, and had stood at 'Arafah before that, whether at night or during the day, then his Hajj is complete and he has fulfilled his obligations).
