Is it permissible for a man with women in his company to leave Muzdalifah for Mina and stone the pillars?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : ... at 'Arafah, based on his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) while in Muzdalifah: However, women have a specific ruling. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted women and the weak to depart from Muzdalifah after the middle of the night. Nevertheless, it is not permissible for them to stone the large pillar until the dawn breaks. But since you and your family have gone, you have interceded for them, and your Hajj is valid. If you stoned before the dawn, before the sun rose, this is contrary to the Prophetic command, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was among the weak who were permitted to depart after the middle of the night along with the women, including 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas and those of his age. Yet he was told, "Do not stone the pillar until the sun rises." If you stoned the pillar after the sun rose, you owe nothing absolutely. If you stoned before the sun rose and you were aware of this legal ruling, you have sinned. If you were not aware of it, you have not sinned, and no expiation is required of you. Is the answer clear?
The questioner : The answer is clear.
The Shaykh : Is there anything else?
The questioner : Yes, regarding ... .
The Shaykh : Our Shaykh ... ?
The questioner : Praise be to Allah in all circumstances.
Whoever prayed this prayer of ours with us in congregation—the Fajr prayer—and had previously stood at 'Arafah for an hour, whether in the night or the day, has completed his Hajj and fulfilled his obligations.
