Questioned about the Maqam Ibrahim: Is the prayer performed at the original location or at the location where it is currently situated?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : All right, regarding the Maqam Ibrahim, we know that its original location was near the door of the Ka'bah. So when it was moved to this current location, does the prayer now depend on this current location, or on what it was before, meaning in terms of the legislation?
The Shaykh : May Allah forgive you, and is it possible, if it were prescribed, for you to pray at its original location now?
The questioner : No, I mean, Shaykh, in Hajj it is not possible for me, but before yesterday I could pray with complete ease. Just two nights ago, there was no one in the Tawaf area, except perhaps thirty people.
The Shaykh : But that is rare.
The questioner : No, I am saying in such a rare case.
The Shaykh : You did not say it, now you are saying it.
The questioner : Now we are following up because you asked, so we answered.
