Chapter on the First and Final Departure From Mina
وَ سَأَلَهُ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَنْفِرُ فِي اَلنَّفْرِ اَلْأَوَّلِ قَالَ لَهُ «أَنْ يَنْفِرَ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ أَنْ تَصْفَرَّ اَلشَّمْسُ فَإِنْ هُوَ لَمْ يَنْفِرْ حَتَّى يَكُونَ عِنْدَ غُرُوبِهَا فَلاَ يَنْفِرْ وَ لْيَبِتْ بِمِنًى حَتَّى إِذَا أَصْبَحَ فَطَلَعَتِ اَلشَّمْسُ فَلْيَنْفِرْ مَتَى شَاءَ.
Abu Basir asked Imam Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a person leaving during the first departure (nafr al-awwal). Imam عليه السلام replied: "He may leave anytime between now and when the sun begins to turn yellow. However, if he does not depart until the time of sunset approaches, then he should not leave. Instead, he should stay the night in Mina, and when morning comes and the sun has risen, he may then depart whenever he wishes."
