Prayer in Wadi Al-Aqiq
However he whose miqat is Dhul Hulaifah - then it is mustahabb for him to pray there, not for ihram, but because of the place and its being blessed. As al-Bukhari has narrated from Umar - may Allah be pleased with him - who said: �I heard the prophet of Allah say in wadi ul �Aqiq:� �Someone came to me this night from my Lord and said: Pray in this blessed valley, and say `Umrah with Hajj [14]� And Ibn �Umar narrates from the Prophet: ��that he saw, when alighting for sleep at the end of the night in Dhul Hulaifah in the center of the valley, one saying to him: you are in the blessed stony ground.� [15]
