Pushes wheelchair for a disabled person; is his Tawaf and Sa‘y valid?
I intend to perform ‘Umrah in the coming month of Sha‘baan, Allah Willing.

Delays leaving Mina until after sunset; what to do?
I performed Hajj, praise be to Allah, with a group from Kuwait. The group hastened to leave Mina having spent only two nights there without any excuse, given that the group organizers delayed the throwing of pebbles until after the Maghrib prayer in the second day of Tashreeq. Should we have stayed at Mina that night as well? Is it incumbent on us to.. More

Sunnah prayers do not substitute for the two rak‘ahs of tawaf
Should the two rak‘ahs (units of prayer) offered after tawaf (circumambulation) during ‘Umrah be separate and independent rak‘ahs or may they be two rak‘ahs of Sunnah prayer for an obligatory prayer for example?

Authorizing someone to throw pebbles without a valid excuse entails offering a sacrificial animal
A few years ago, I performed Hajj, all praise be to Allah. On the first day of tashreeq (i.e. the 11th of Thul-Hijjah) and after throwing at Jamrat Al-‘Aqabah (stoning of the devil), my mother fell to the ground due to the heavy throng. Therefore, my brother took my mother's pebbles to throw them on her behalf and I insisted that my mother and all.. More

Spending the night at the end of Muzdalifah instead of Mina in case the crowds are too big

Throwing the Jamrah with eight pebbles
During Hajj, when I came to throwing the pebbles, I doubted the number of pebbles which I had thrown in the pit. So, I considered the lesser number in order to be sure that they are seven. When I threw the pebbles of the next Jamrah and counted the total number of pebbles, I discovered that eight pebbles were thrown at the first Jamrah, because I had.. More
