At Arafat, which mosque hosts the combined noon and afternoon prayers during Hajj?

At Arafat, Masjid al-Namirah hosts the combined noon and afternoon prayers during Hajj. The prayers are performed together at Dhuhr and Asr on Arafah Day, reflecting the established Hajj practice for pilgrims gathered on the plain.

The mosque stands in Wadi Uranah, beside the Plain of Arafat near Mecca. It is closely associated with the khutbah, or sermon, delivered on the ninth day of Dhu al-Hijjah. Because the mosque extends across the boundary of the sacred Arafat area, not every part of it has the same ritual status; pilgrims follow official guidance about where to pray.

Masjid al-Namirah is sometimes confused with Masjid al-Khayf, which is at Mina and is connected with another stage of Hajj. Quba Mosque and Masjid al-Qiblatayn are historic mosques in Medina, not the mosque used for the Arafat sermon and combined prayers.
