لِأَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع يَتَعَجَّلُ الرَّجُلُ قَبْلَ التَّرْوِيَةِ بِيَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ مِنْ أَجْلِ الزِّحَامِ وَ ضِغَاطِ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ‌[3].

I said to Abu al-Hasan (as): "Can a person leave for Mina a day or two before the Day of Tarwiyah to avoid the crowd and congestion?" Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in it."
