1. Leave for Arafaah after sunrise on the 9th of Dhul Hijjah.
•Leaving Mina before sunrise is against the sunnah.
• The time for wuqoof (stay) in Arafaat starts from zawaal on 9th Zul Hijjah and ends at sub’h saadiq the following morning. To remain in Arafaat until sunset is waajib (compulsory).
2. The du’aas made on the day of Arafah are accepted. Make du’aa for yourself, your family, friends & the entire ummah. Cry in humility. This may be your only opportunity to stand in the plains of Arafah as a Hajee. Please remember me in your du’aas too.
Du’aa For Arafah
When one reads the following after zawaal in Arafaat, on the day of Arafah, facing qiblah, Allah says: O my angels! What is the reward of My servant who glorified Me, praised Me, mentioned My Oneness and Greatness and sent salutations on My Prophet ﷺ? I have forgiven him and accepted his request regarding his needs and if My servant intercedes for all who are in Arafah, I will accept it; and he may ask whatever he wishes.

وَلِلّٰهِ الْحَمْدُ
Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, La ila ha illalahu, walahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, wa lillahil hamd
