Staying overnight in Muzdalifah


367

A: You must offer a Fidyah (ransom, i.e., sacrificial animal) for abandoning spending the night in Muzdalifah which is to slaughter a sacrificial animal in Makkah; either a Jadh`ah (a six-month-old sheep), a Thaniyyah (a one-year-old goat) or a one-seventh share of a Badanah, meeting the same conditions of Ud-hiyah (sacrificial animal offered by non-pilgrims), and distribute the meat among the poor in the Al-Haram (all areas within the Sacred Sanctuary of Makkah). If you cannot, then you have to observe Sawm for ten days. The same applies to those who were with you and did the same.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
