حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُفَيْلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو يَعْنِي ابْنَ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ ، قَالَ : " أَتَانَا ابْنُ مِرْبَعٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَنَحْنُ بِعَرَفَةَ فِي مَكَانٍ يُبَاعِدُهُ عَمْرُو عَنِ الْإِمَامِ ، فَقَالَ : أَمَا إِنِّي رَسُولُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَيْكُمْ ، يَقُولُ لَكُمْ : قِفُوا عَلَى مَشَاعِرِكُمْ ، فَإِنَّكُمْ عَلَى إِرْثٍ مِنْ إِرْثِ أَبِيكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ " .
Yazid ibn Shayban said: We were in a place of stationing at Arafat which Amr (ibn Abdullah) thought was very far away from where the imam was stationing, when Ibn Mirba' al-Ansari came to us and told (us): I am a messenger for you from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He tells you: Station where you are performing your devotions for you are an heir to the heritage of Abraham.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Commentary:
All of Arafat is a place for standing (wuquf). Although the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stood near Jabal Rahmah, not everyone can stand at that spot; therefore, wherever a person finds a place, he should stay there—there will be no difference in reward.

Commentary:
1:
This sentence is interpolated; it is an explanatory statement by Amr ibn Dinar.
2:
By "Mashā‘ir" are meant the places of ritual acts and the ancient standing sites, that is, you should also stand at these locations because standing at them has been passed down as a tradition since the time of your father Ibrahim (alayhis salam).

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stayed at the foot of the mountains near the rocks.
➋ It is not necessary for the pilgrim (haji) to stay at the exact place in Arafat where the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stayed; rather, except for the valley of Arafah, he may stay anywhere in the entire plain of Arafat wherever he finds space.
➌ In our Shari‘ah, the rulings and issues of Hajj are according to the Shari‘ah of Ibrahim (alayhis salam). Whatever changes the people of Arabia had made in them, or whatever innovations they had introduced, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) corrected them through his actions and taught the correct method.
