Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A brother asks and says: You mentioned, may Allah reward you with good, that whoever prays two rak'ahs in the Noble Haram, it is equivalent to one hundred thousand rak'ahs. Does this reward apply to one who prays inside the Haram, or even outside the Haram—meaning: within the boundaries of Makkah al-Mukarramah and the boundaries of the Haram? And is this the correct opinion in that matter?
Answer:
The scholars have differed on this:
Some say that the multiplication is specific to what surrounds the Ka'bah and inside the mosque that encircles it.
The second opinion is that it encompasses all parts of the Haram, and that the entire Haram is called: al-Masjid al-Haram.
The evidence for this is clearer, so the multiplication encompasses all parts of the Haram. This is the correct view, this is the most apparent.
