“All of ʿArafah is a place of standing, but keep away from the valley of ʿUrana; all of Muzdalifah is a place of standing, but keep away from the valley of Muḥassir; all of Mina is a place of sacrifice, and all the mountain passes of Mecca are roadways.” (3)

The Sunnah is to spend the night in Muzdalifah until dawn breaks, then to perform the dawn prayer (4) there at its very first time (5), after which one should stand at al-Mashʿar al-Ḥarām (6) until the light spreads clearly across the horizon, yet before sunrise.

Al-Haythami remarks in Majmaʿ al-Zawaʾid 3/251: “Ahmad, al-Bazzar, and al-Tabarani in al-Kabir recorded it, except that the latter reads: ‘and every mountain pass of Mecca is a place of sacrifice’; all its transmitters are reliable.” (4) The phrase “fa-yusalli biha al-fajr” (so he performs the dawn prayer there) is absent from copy D. (5) Copies C and D read “al-waqt” (the time). (6) The word “al-haram” is missing from copies A and B. (7) Copy B reads “wa-in”. (8) Copy B reads “al-daʿifa” (the weak).
