Violations of the tenth day
1-Some of the pilgrims pray dawn in Muzdalefah before, the right
time, and this is a grave mistake, trespassing over the limits of
Honored God, and prayers before the right time is prohibited and
unacceptable.
2- Some pilgrim take the matter for granted and throw the pebbles
behind Jamrat, which obstructs the pebbles to fall inside the basin,
as the basin is semi circle.

shave their beards, and this is a sin in such blessed places.
5-Not giving great value for this day by mentioning and supplicating

Moslems, with good faces, which bring happiness to all as it is an
Eid, our Prophet (Allah Prayers and Peace be upon him) said that
