Q
What considerations are taken into account when determining a Miqat for pilgrims?
A
When these two towns (Basra and Kufa) were captured, the people went to `Umar and said, “O the
Chief of the faithful believers! The Prophet (ﷺ) fixed Qarn as the Miqat for the people of Najd, it is
beyond our way and it is difficult for us to pass through it.” He said, “Take as your Miqat a place
situated opposite to Qarn on your usual way. So, he fixed Dhatu-Irq (as their Miqat).”
