As for one who sleeps before reaching

Q 1: I traveled from Al-Madinah to Makkah during the season of Hajj, and the traffic officers made me stop in one of the parking areas for cars, so I left the car there and went with some associates to Makkah. After performing our rituals and performing Tawaf-ul-Wada` (circumambulation of the Ka`bah on leaving Makkah), we went to take our car, and found that some of our associates had not arrived. Accordingly,a- Is it permissible for us to spend the night at the parking area if our associates did not yet return?B- Is this parking area considered to be within the boundaries of Makkah, or is it outside the boundaries? C- Is it permissible for us to enter Makkah if our associates did not return, and were late for only one hour? Should we assume Ihram (ritual state for Hajj and `Umrah) then offer Tawaf-ul-Wada` once more?

A: a- It is permissible for you to spend the night in the parking area to await your associates. B- Currently, this parking area is not within the boundaries of Makkah, rather it is outside it. C- It is permissible for you to enter Makkah to search for your associates or for any other purpose, even if they are only one hour late and you are not to assume Ihram after returning to Makkah for you do not intend (Part No. 11; Page No. 307) to perform Hajj or `Umrah on returning, furthermore, you should not later repeat Tawaf-ul-Wada` on leaving.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
