He was not able to stay overnight in Muzdalifah

Question: 36943

We were not able to stay overnight in Muzdalifah because we could not find any place except on the road, and they did not let anyone stop on the road. So we left and went to Mina. Do we have to do anything?.

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

Shaykh Ibn Baaz said: 

If he could not find any place in Muzdalifah
or if the soldiers prevented him from stopping there, then he does not have to do anything, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“So keep your duty to Allaah and fear Him
as much as you can”

[al-Taghaabun 64:16]

But if that was because he took the matter lightly, then he has to offer a sacrifice and
repent.
