ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، قَالَ
سَالِمٌ : وَكَانَ
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يُقَدِّمُ ضَعَفَةَ أَهْلِهِ ، فَيَقِفُونَ عِنْدَ الْمَشْعَرِ الْحَرَامِ بِالْمُزْدَلِفَةِ بِلَيْلٍ فَيَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ مَا بَدَا لَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُونَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقِفَ الْإِمَامُ وَقَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْفَعَ ، فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَقْدَمُ مِنًى لِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَقْدَمُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ، فَإِذَا قَدِمُوا رَمَوْا الْجَمْرَةَ , وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، يَقُولُ : أَرْخَصَ فِي أُولَئِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
Narrated Salim: `Abdullah bin `Umar used to send the weak among his family early to Mina. So they used to depart from Al-Mash'ar Al-Haram (that is Al-Muzdalifa) at night (when the moon had set) and invoke Allah as much as they could, and then they would return (to Mina) before the Imam had started from Al- Muzdalifa to Mina. So some of them would reach Mina at the time of the Fajr prayer and some of them would come later. When they reached Mina they would throw pebbles on the Jamra (Jamrat-Al- `Aqaba) Ibn `Umar used to say, "Allah's Apostle gave the permission to them (weak people) to do so."

Hadith Commentary:
That is, women and children have been permitted to leave Muzdalifah after staying there for a short while, but apart from them, all other people should remain in Muzdalifah during the night. Shu'bi, Nakha'i, and Alqamah said that whoever does not stay in Muzdalifah at night, his Hajj is invalidated. 'Ata and Zuhri say that a compensatory sacrifice (dam) becomes obligatory upon him, and it is not permissible to return from there before midnight.
