Furthermore, in traditions, this place is described as the threshold of the second gate to the Haram, where the [[pilgrim]] is granted permission to enter through weeping and supplication. Mash'ar is a place for the descent of mercy, the forgiveness of sins, and the answering of prayers, and [[Wuquf]] (staying) there increases hope for divine forgiveness. Verse 198 of Surah Al-Baqara identifies [[Mash'ar al-Haram]] as a place for the remembrance of God, and according to some exegetes, the secret of staying there is to awaken the heart to piety and the fear of God. | ||
Regarding the etiquette of the stay, there are recommendations to practice patience and avoid haste or causing annoyance to others, as rushing was a custom of the [[Jahiliyyah|pre-Islamic era]]. [[Imam Sadiq (a)]] considered the abandonment of arrogance a condition for attracting God's mercy, defining pride as "offending people and rejecting the truth." Reciting the supplication "Fakka raqabati min al-nar" (Free my neck from the Fire) and requesting forgiveness, offering apologies, and maintaining [[piety]] in Mash'ar are highly recommended. It is said that these supplications indicate that Mash'ar is a place for [[seeking forgiveness]], the health of one's faith, the acceptance of rituals, and the blessing of deeds. | Regarding the etiquette of the stay, there are recommendations to practice patience and avoid haste or causing annoyance to others, as rushing was a custom of the [[Jahiliyyah|pre-Islamic era]].
