The questioner : A person who fainted, who fainted before 'Arafah and was carried to 'Arafah on the Day of 'Arafah while unconscious: is his Hajj valid despite his lack of awareness?
The Shaykh : Yes, the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) mentioned that the standing of an unconscious person is sufficient, and that if a person faints before the dawn of the Day of 'Arafah and does not regain consciousness until after the dawn of the Day of Sacrifice, and he has stood at 'Arafah, then his Hajj is valid. Yes.
