Malik was asked about whether a man could stand at Arafa, or atMuzdalifa, or stone the Jamras, or do say between Safa and Marwa if hewas not in wudu, and he said, "Every practice in the hajj that amenstruating woman can take part in can be taken part in by a man whois not in wudu and there is nothing due from him for that. However, itis better for him to be in wudu for all those things, and he shouldnot make a general practice of it."Malik was asked whether aman who was riding should get down to do the standing at Arafa or ifhe could stand while mounted, and he said, "He can stand whilemounted, unless he or his riding beast have an illness, in which caseAllah is the one who most often accepts an excuse."
