And upon the non-resident is a sacrificial animal
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The author said "And upon the non-resident is a sacrificial animal". Upon the non-resident is a sacrificial animal. The "upon" here indicates obligation. "Al-Afaqy" (the non-resident) is a relative term referring to the horizon; it is also called "al-Afaqy" referring to the horizons. Linguistically, it is more correct to say "al-Afaqy" referring to the singular, as this is the original form of the relative term. Who is the non-resident? The non-resident is one who is not among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. This is the non-resident. The evidence for this is the saying of Allah the Exalted: [Al-Baqarah 2:196]. "Their homes" means their dwellings, because a person settles in a dwelling. "Residents of al-Masjid al-Haram." So we ask: Who are the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram? Who are they? It was said that the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram are those within the miqat boundaries. On this view, people differ greatly. Those from the route of Madinah may be seven or eight days away from Makkah, and all of them are considered residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. Those in Qarn al-Manazil are only two days away from Makkah. This view is questionable and weak. It was also said that the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram are only the people of Makkah, because the resident of a thing is the one who dwells in it, and whoever is outside Makkah is not among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. On this view, one who resides in 'Arafah, for example, is not among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram, and one whose residence is in Muzdalifah is not among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram, because he is not from the people of Makkah. Only the people of Makkah. It was also said that the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram are the people of the Haram, not just the people of Makkah. On this view, everyone within the miles [of the Haram] is a resident of al-Masjid al-Haram. So are the people of Mina? They are residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. The people of 'Arafah? No, they are not residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. It was also said that the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram are the people of the Haram who are within the distance of shortening the prayer. Within the distance of shortening the prayer, because those within the distance are considered residents of the town. But the closest of the views is to say that the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram are the people of Makkah or the people of the Haram, meaning one who is from the people of Makkah even if he is in the Hilla, or one who is in the Haram...
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : ...whoever is, the best thing to say is that he is from the people of Makkah or the people of the Haram. So whoever is from the people of Makkah and is outside the Haram, he is among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram, correct? Now, in at-Tan'im, at-Tan'im is connected to Makkah, now it is completely connected to Makkah, indeed there are now houses beyond at-Tan'im, meaning at-Tan'im has become inside Makkah, even though it is from the Hilla. Here, one might pose a riddle and say: There is a tree in Makkah that Allah has grown; is it permissible to cut it down or not?
The presenter: Yes, it is permissible.
The Shaykh : It is permissible because it is outside the Haram, and there is game in Makkah that is permissible for us to hunt. Someone might ask: How is this possible? The trees of Makkah are forbidden? But we say: This is Makkah, which has now extended and gone beyond the Haram. Okay, if one is within the miles but outside Makkah, is he considered a resident of al-Masjid al-Haram? Yes, if this is what the soul is reassured by, that they are the people of Makkah or the people of the Haram. Meaning, the furthest of the two, the furthest from the Haram or Makkah, are the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram, and everyone else is not among the residents of al-Masjid al-Haram. So, the non-resident, according to the author's statement, we say is one who is outside Makkah and outside the Haram, on the correct view. Okay, and the author's statement "a sacrificial animal, upon him is a sacrificial animal". "Dham" (sacrificial animal) is used here to mean the sacrificial animal. If the author had said "hady" (sacrificial offering), it would have been better, why? To match the verse[Al-Baqarah 2:196].
then whoever performs 'umrah [during the Hajj months] followed by Hajj [offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And whoever cannot find [or afford such an animal] - then a fast of three days during Hajj and of seven when you have returned [home]. Those are ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Haram
فمن تمتع بالعمرة إلى الحج فما استيسر من الهدي فمن لم يجد فصيام ثلاثة أيام في الحج وسبعة إذا رجعتم تلك عشرة كاملة ذلك لمن لم يكن أهله حاضري المسجد الحرامThe questioner : ... .
