Is the multiplication of prayer to one hundred thousand prayers in al-Masjid al-Haram valid if the mosque is filled to the point that those outside are also granted this reward?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I asked: What is the extent of the prayer multiplied by one hundred thousand? Is it only in the Sacred House or in the rest of Makkah?
The Shaykh : Only in the mosque.
The questioner : The one who prays outside the mosque because of the crowd inside?
The Shaykh : If the mosque is filled inside, the one who prays outside is considered part of the mosque, in any mosque. But one who intends to pray in another mosque to get the reward of one hundred thousand prayers, no, that is only in al-Masjid al-Haram.
The questioner : Some scholars say that in the first exit from the state of ihram, it is obligatory to throw the stones at the large pillar, then to shorten the hair or shave it?
The Shaykh : No, it is not a condition, he just throws the stones. This is an issue we are addressing in the book "The Rituals of Hajj and 'Umrah."
The questioner : I read...?
The Shaykh : This is a well-known opinion among some scholars, but there is no evidence for it. We see the evidence explicitly.
The questioner : O Shaykh: Is all of Makkah a sacred precinct?
The Shaykh : Some people say: Yes, it is a sacred precinct, but the virtue of the prayer is.
He did not say: except in Makkah.
The questioner : To where do the boundaries of this al-Masjid al-Haram extend in terms of the rows of worshippers?
The Shaykh : It is not the same in two cases. In the normal case, the one who prays inside the sacred precinct is written one hundred thousand. But if al-Masjid al-Haram is filled and they go out, those attached to al-Masjid al-Haram, this is a special case.
Therefore, I said: One who goes to pray in a mosque other than al-Masjid al-Haram and claims that the prayer there is multiplied by one hundred thousand because it is in Makkah, no.
The questioner : O Shaykh, in the case where people are on the annexes praying with the sacred precinct?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible, the rows must be connected first.
The questioner : If a person prostrates due to the intensity of the crowd, to the point that some men are found with the women?
The Shaykh : The ruling:[At-Taghabun 64:16]
The Shaykh : Only in the mosque.
The questioner : The one who prays outside the mosque because of the crowd inside?

A prayer in this mosque of mine is worth a thousand prayers, except al-Masjid al-Haram, where a prayer is worth one hundred thousand prayers.
صلاةٌ في مسجدي هذا بألف صلاة إلا المسجد الحرام الصلاة فيه بمائة ألف صلاةHe did not say: except in Makkah.

So fear Allah as much as you are able
