إِنَّ أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ إِذَا زَارُوا الْبَيْتَ وَ دَخَلُوا مَنَازِلَهُمْ أَتَمُّوا وَ إِذَا لَمْ يَدْخُلُوا مَنَازِلَهُمْ قَصَّرُوا.
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘In the case of people of Makkah when they visit the House, then enter their lodgings; they perform their Salat (prayer) complete, but if they do not enter their lodging, they perform in the form of Taqsir (reduced Salat (prayer) as on a journey after traveling a certain distance).”’

The Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, performed al-Hajj and stayed in Mina for three days praying two Rak‘ats in each salat (prayer).

“I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), that people of Makkah perform their Salat (prayer) in complete form when they are in ‘Arafat. He (the Imam) said, ‘Woe is upon them’ or ‘Fie upon them, which journey is more intense than that. No, Salat (prayer) is not complete in ‘Arafat.’”
صَلِّ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ فِي مَسْجِدِ مِنًى فِي أَصْلِ الصَّوْمَعَةِ[2].
