Starting
the stay in Muzdalifah before the first half of the night
*Please appropriately
reference this fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: What is the ruling about
(starting) the stay in Muzdalifah before the first half (of
the night)?
Response:
It is obligatory upon the one performing the Hajj to spend
the tenth (10th) of Dhul-Hijjah
until (the time of) Fajr,
except for the one who has an excuse such as illness or the
like. So it is permissible for him or whoever has undertaken
responsibility for him to depart to Minaa after half the night
has passed in accordance with the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) having the spent the night there until
(the time of ) Fajr
and him having granted those with a (legal) excuse to depart
from Muzdalifah to Minaa after half the night (had passed).
