The Case of One Who Spends the Nights in Mina
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ وَابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ لا تَبِتْ لَيَالِيَ التَّشْرِيقِ إِلاَّ بِمِنًى فَإِنْ بِتَّ فِي غَيْرِهَا فَعَلَيْكَ دَمٌ وَإِنْ خَرَجْتَ أَوَّلَ اللَّيْلِ فَلا يَنْتَصِفْ لَكَ اللَّيْلُ إِلاَّ وَأَنْتَ بِمِنًى إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ شُغُلُكَ بِنُسُكِكَ أَوْ قَدْ خَرَجْتَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ وَإِنْ خَرَجْتَ نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ فَلا يَضُرُّكَ أَنْ تُصْبِحَ بِغَيْرِهَا قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ زَارَ عِشَاءً فَلَمْ يَزَلْ فِي طَوَافِهِ وَدُعَائِهِ وَفِي السَّعْيِ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ كَانَ فِي طَاعَةِ الله.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il has narrated from af-Fadf ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya and Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘You must not pass the nights of tashriq (11, 12 and 13) in any place other than Mina. If you pass these nights in other places, you owe an animal for offering. If you go out in the beginning of the night, you must return before midnight, unless you are busy with an act of hajj or you are taken out of Makkah. If you go out after midnight, then it is not harmful to pass the rest of the night in other places.’ I then asked about a man who visits (the House) during al-‘Isha’ and continues Tawaf, prayers and Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah until dawn. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful; he was obeying the commandments of Allah.’”
2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عِيصِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الزِّيَارَةِ مِنْ مِنًى قَالَ إِنْ زَارَ بِالنَّهَارِ أَوْ عِشَاءً فَلا يَنْفَجِرِ الْفَجْرُ إِلاَّ وَهُوَ بِمِنًى وَإِنْ زَارَ بَعْدَ نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ وَأَسْحَرَ فَلا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَنْفَجِرَ الْفَجْرُ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ.
2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from ‘Is ibn al-Qasim who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about visiting (the House) from Mina’. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he visits during the day or during al-‘Isha’ he must be in Mina’ before dawn. If he visits after midnight; and during the hours of dawn, then it is not harmful if it becomes dawn while he is in Makkah.’”
3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا فِي رَجُلٍ زَارَ الْبَيْتَ فَنَامَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ إِنْ بَاتَ بِمَكَّةَ فَعَلَيْهِ دَمٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ وَلَوْ أَصْبَحَ دُونَ مِنًى. وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي الرَّجُلِ يَزُورُ فَيَنَامُ دُونَ مِنًى قَالَ إِذَا جَازَ عَقَبَةَ الْمَدَنِيِّينَ فَلا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَنَامَ.
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil from certain persons of our people from a man who has said the following: “This is about a man who visits the House and sleeps on the way. He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘If he passes the night in Makkah, he owes one animal for offering, but if he is out of Makkah, then it is not harmful even if it becomes dawn before reaching Mina’.’” In another Hadith from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who sleeps near Mina’, has said, ‘If he crosses ‘Aqabah al-Madaniyin, then it is not harmful if he sleeps.’
4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ إِذَا زَارَ الْحَاجُّ مِنْ مِنًى فَخَرَجَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَجَاوَزَ بُيُوتَ مَكَّةَ فَنَامَ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ مِنًى فَلا شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hisham ibn al-Hakam who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If one performing al-Hajj visits the House from Mina’, then comes out of Makkah and sleeps, and it becomes dawn before reaching Mina’, he is not obligated for anything in this matter.’”
5ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنَّهُ قَالَ لا تَدْخُلُوا مَنَازِلَكُمْ بِمَكَّةَ إِذَا زُرْتُمْ يَعْنِي أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ.
5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali from ibn Bukayr from those who narrated to him who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘You must not enter your lodgings when you visit the House, meaning thereby people of Makkah.’”

Coming to Makkah after Ziyarat for Tawaf
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ لَيْثٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَأْتِي مَكَّةَ أَيَّامَ مِنًى بَعْدَ فَرَاغِهِ مِنْ زِيَارَةِ الْبَيْتِ فَيَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ تَطَوُّعاً فَقَالَ الْمُقَامُ بِمِنًى أَفْضَلُ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from al-Mufaddal ibn Salih from Layth al-Muradiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who comes to Makkah in the days of Mina after visiting the House, and performs Tawaf around the House optionally. He (the Imam) said, ‘Remaining in Mina’ is better and more beloved to me.”
2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عِيصِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الزِّيَارَةِ بَعْدَ زِيَارَةِ الْحَجِّ فِي أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ فَقَالَ لا.
2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from ‘Is ibn al-Qasim who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about visiting (the House) after visiting for al-Hajj in the days of tashriq. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, do not visit.’”

Takbir (Allah Is Great Beyond Description) During the Bright Days, 11, 12 and 13 of Dhu al-Hajjah
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنْ قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَاذْكُرُوا الله فِي أَيَّامٍ مَعْدُوداتٍ قَالَ التَّكْبِيرُ فِي أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ مِنْ صَلاةِ الظُّهْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ النَّحْرِ إِلَى صَلاةِ الْفَجْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ وَفِي الأَمْصَارِ عَشْرَ صَلَوَاتٍ فَإِذَا نَفَرَ بَعْدَ الأُولَى أَمْسَكَ أَهْلُ الأَمْصَارِ وَمَنْ أَقَامَ بِمِنًى فَصَلَّى بِهَا الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ فَلْيُكَبِّرْ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, ‘Speak of Allah during the well identified days.’ (2:203) He (the Imam) said, ‘Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) during the bright days should be commenced at noontime on the tenth of Dhu al-Hajjah up to the morning of the 13th of Dhu al-Hajjah. In the cities however, it is during the ten salawat (prayers). As soon as people begin to leave Mina, people of the cities discontinue Takbirat (Allah is great beyond description); however, people who still remain in Mina’ must say Zuhr and al-‘Asr salat (prayer) and al-Takbirat (Allah is great beyond description) there.”’
2ـ حَمَّادُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) التَّكْبِيرُ فِي أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلَوَاتِ فَقَالَ التَّكْبِيرُ بِمِنًى فِي دُبُرِ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ صَلاةً وَفِي سَائِرِ الأَمْصَارِ فِي دُبُرِ عَشْرِ صَلَوَاتٍ وَأَوَّلُ التَّكْبِيرِ فِي دُبُرِ صَلاةِ الظُّهْرِ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ يَقُولُ فِيهِ الله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ لا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ الله وَالله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ وَلله الْحَمْدُ الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا هَدَانَا الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَنَا مِنْ بَهِيمَةِ الأَنْعَامِ وَإِنَّمَا جُعِلَ فِي سَائِرِ الأَمْصَارِ فِي دُبُرِ عَشْرِ صَلَوَاتٍ لأَنَّهُ إِذَا نَفَرَ النَّاسُ فِي النَّفْرِ الأَوَّلِ أَمْسَكَ أَهْلُ الأَمْصَارِ عَنِ التَّكْبِيرِ وَكَبَّرَ أَهْلُ مِنًى مَا دَامُوا بِمِنًى إِلَى النَّفْرِ الأَخِيرِ.
2. Hammad ibn ‘Isa has narrated from Hariz ibn ‘Abd Allah from Zurarah who has said the following: “I once asked abu Ja‘far (a.s.), about Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) in the days of Tashriq after Salat (prayer). He (the Imam) said, ‘Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) in Mina’ is after fifteen Salawat (prayers). In other cities it is after ten Salawat (prayers). The first Takbir is after Salat (prayer) of al-Zuhr on the day of al-Nahr (slaughtering the offering, 10th of Dhu al-Hajjah) in which one says, ‘Allah is great beyond description, Allah is great beyond description. No one deserves worship except Allah. Allah is great beyond description. Allah is great beyond description. All praise belongs to Allah. Allah is great beyond description. Allah is great beyond description as He has given us the cattle.’ In other cities it is after ten because in the cities when people leave with the first departure, people of the cities stop saying Takbir (Allah is great beyond description); but people in Mina’ continue saying Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) up till the last person’s departure.’” (Fatwa best explains Hadith 2 of this Chapter)
3ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَاذْكُرُوا الله فِي أَيَّامٍ مَعْدُوداتٍ قَالَ هِيَ أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ كَانُوا إِذَا أَقَامُوا بِمِنًى بَعْدَ النَّحْرِ تَفَاخَرُوا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ كَانَ أَبِي يَفْعَلُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ الله جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ فَإِذا أَفَضْتُمْ مِنْ عَرَفاتٍ فَاذْكُرُوا الله كَذِكْرِكُمْ آباءَكُمْ أَوْ أَشَدَّ ذِكْراً قَالَ وَالتَّكْبِيرُ الله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ لا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ الله وَالله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ وَلله الْحَمْدُ الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا هَدَانَا الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَنَا مِنْ بَهِيمَةِ الأَنْعَامِ.
3. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Mansur ibn Hazim who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, ‘Speak of Allah during the well identified days’ (2:203) has said, ‘Such days are the bright days, 11, 12 and 13 of Dhu al-Hajjah. The Arabs would stay in Mina’ after the tenth of Dhu al-Hajjah and speak of their superiority over the others. A man among them would say, ‘My father did such and such things.’ Allah, the most Blessed, the most High, then said, ‘When you leave ‘Arafat, speak of Allah just as you speak of your fathers or even more intensely.’ (2:198-200) He (the Imam) then said, ‘Takbirat are as follows. ‘Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description), Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description). No one deserves worship except Allah, Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description), Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description). All praise belongs to Allah, Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description), for His granting us guidance, Allahu Akbar (Allah is great beyond description) for His giving us cattle.’”
