The Night at al-Muzdalifah, Staying in al-Mash‘ar, Departing It and Its Limits

5ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَيُّ سَاعَةٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ أُفِيضَ مِنْ جَمْعٍ فَقَالَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ بِقَلِيلٍ فَهِيَ أَحَبُّ السَّاعَاتِ إِلَيَّ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ مَكَثْنَا حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِهِ بَأْسٌ.
5. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu Ibrahim عليه السلام, about the time in which he likes to leave al-Jam' (Mash’ar). He (the Imam) said, ‘It is a little before sunrise. That is the best hour to me.’ I asked, ‘Can we wait until sunrise?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful.’”
