Ruling on standing at al-Mash'ar al-Haram?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is standing at al-Mash'ar al-Haram until the sun rises obligatory or recommended?
Answer:
It is recommended; staying until that time is the perfection of the act. If one departs during the night, it suffices according to a group of scholars. However, staying until one prays Fajr and stands until it lightens is the best. Some scholars consider it obligatory for those who are not weak, because among the obligations of Hajj is that one completes it by standing after the Fajr prayer. The more apparent view is that it is not obligatory, and if they depart at the end of the night, it suffices. But this is the Sunnah, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), for he stood after the Fajr prayer until it lightened, then departed before the sun rose.
