HAJJ 2025: WE HAVE LEFT ARAFAH AND ARRIVED SAFELY AT MUZDALIFAH
Alhamdulillah, we have successfully completed our stay at the sacred plain of Arafah. The Day of Arafah was smooth and spiritually uplifting with no issues, and we pray that Almighty Allah accepts all our supplications, duas, and acts of worship performed on this most blessed day.
We have now arrived at Muzdalifah, where we will spend the night under the open sky, as is the tradition of Hajj. There are no special sleeping arrangements here; all pilgrims rest on the ground in a shared spirit of humility and unity.
Upon arrival, we combined and shortened our Maghrib and Isha prayers (Salat al-Maghrib and Salat al-Isha) — performing them as Qasr (shortened) as per the Sunnah.
The night at Muzdalifah is a time of reflection and devotion. Pilgrims rest briefly after the intense spiritual experience at Arafah and prepare for the next phase of the pilgrimage.
At Fajr, we will offer the morning prayer (Salat al-Fajr), make supplications, and then proceed to Mina for the next rites of Hajj — including the symbolic stoning at Jamaraat.
May Allah continue to ease our journey, accept our Hajj, and grant every pilgrim the full reward and forgiveness promised during these sacred days. Ameen.
