Q 1: An employee performed the obligatory Hajj this year, even though he was not given leave from work except for one day only; namely, on the day of `Arafah (9th of Dhul-Hijjah). However, on the days of Tashriq (11th, 12th and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah), he had to attend his work during the daytime and go to Mina after `Isha' (Night) Prayer where he would stay until after midnight. Then, he would go to sleep in his home in Makkah. What is the ruling on this case? Please bear in mind that he threw the pebbles at the due time.


A: If the case is as you have mentioned, his Hajj is valid even if he left Mina during the day time to do his work and came back at night to spend the night there. May Allah grant us success. May Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and his Companions.
