Jurisprudence related to the day of Arafa

Abstract

Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds, and prayers and peace be upon the one who was sent as a mercy to the worlds, our master Muhammad, and upon his pure and good family and his faithful companions, and after. These are the most important results that I reached during the research: 1. The day of Arafah has several names, and the most famous of these names is (Arafah). 2. The day of Arafah is considered one of the best days, and with it the pilgrimage is completed by standing in Arafat, and it is a day when necks are freed from Hell and sins are forgiven, and Muslims should seek this day and spend it with supplication, obedience, and seeking forgiveness. 3. The day of Arafah, the day of completing the religion and completing the blessing, and on it God restored the pilgrimage according to the foundations of Abraham, peace be upon him, and denied polytheism and its people. 4. A number of rulings are attached to the Day of Arafah, including: It is Sunnah to fast for those who are not among the pilgrims, and as for those who are forbidden to perform Hajj, the Sunnah is that they do not fast in order to be strong in supplication and not weaken from worshiping in Arafat. 5. It is necessary for the pilgrim to catch up on the day of Arafat and to stand for an hour on the land of Arafat, and if he does not do so, then he is not allowed to perform the Hajj. 6. The Sunnah is for the pilgrim to pray the noon and afternoon prayers in Arafat on the day of Arafat, both in combination and short, and he does not recite aloud in them, and he prays them with the adhaan for the first, and he recites the iqaamah for each one. 7. On the day of Arafah, he recites supplications, a lot of dhikr and talbiyyah, and does not stop them until he has stoned Jamrat al-Aqaba.
