Yh it's a pathetic rule with no basis in islam thus don't follow it. I was there last Ramadan and began turning on in ihram so I could do nafl tawaf and sit/pray in mataaf. Don't knw what purpose this serves at all
As much as I agree with the stupidity of not allowing "men" in to the Mataf area without Ihram, if this is their current ruling to keep the crowd numbers low (based on the deception of Covid-19), isn't wearing the Ihram to lie and decieve, considered sinful?
Yet at the same time many women enter the mataf (not following the current Saudi rule) with no questions asked but if they were to be stopped, I wonder if they would speak the truth or lie.
It's all a mess. You believe one lie, you most likely to believe them all and everyone suffers the consequences!
It's not to stop Convid-19. It's to keep crowds on a lower number, for the men at least.
Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense to have a million people indoors all cramped up and only let a few outside. It's illogical. Convid is an excuse that people will buy into and follow.
I reckon, after Ramadhan or Hajj, when there's going to be over 100,000 people crammed in the mataf, the rulings will change after that or around that time and Allah knows best.
Not only oppressive but more importantly no where in islam does it prevent people from going mataf if they not in ihram. Also you're not lying I didn't say I was doing umrah I was just in ihram. People do umrah and leave ihram on for few hours.
Even though we differ on some covid related issues it's stupid that somehow covid can only be passed in mataf and 2nd half of tarawih as if it won't spread other floors and courtyard wer we are packed like sardines or first 10 rakats of tarawih.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
