The questioner : In the present time, how do we follow the Sunnah in entering and leaving Makkah?
The Shaykh : This is what we said: that he did so, just as he differed on the day of Eid to display the rites. However, it remains to be asked whether this is feasible in the present time. Yes, it is feasible only for the one who comes on foot. As for the one who comes by car, as you know, cars now have a regulated direction for the comfort of people, so one must follow this direction. In that case, it is said that if you follow this direction based on the system established by the one in authority, then you are obedient to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) by this, and you have a reward for following the system.
