The Ruling on Staying Overnight Outside Mina
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Regarding the boundaries of Mina, some people who do not know Mina and are not from the people of Makkah reside outside the Wadi al-Jabal, inside Mina,Meaning: at the current vehicle limit, where cars are taken out of Mina. I do not know if this place is considered part of Mina? And are they excused for that or not? The important thing is that some people have rebuked them, and they did not respond,And they said: unless there is a fatwa from His Eminence Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz, or from the Council of Senior Scholars!
It is obligatory for a person to be cautious with his religion by conducting a thorough search for a place for him in Mina,If he does not find one, Allah Mighty and Majestic said: [al-Taghabun:16] , so if he does not find one, the obligation is lifted from him; because he is unable.
And some scholars said: If staying overnight in Mina is prevented, the obligation of staying overnight is lifted from him; but he must perform the alternative, which is a fidyah that he slaughters and distributes among the poor of Makkah.
