Benefits and Issues:
➊ The meaning of having an aspect of ignorance (jahiliyyah) in the heart is that you did not designate this place for sacrifice because, in the era of ignorance, this location was considered to possess any kind of sanctity, and you did not vow to sacrifice there due to this supposed sanctity.

➋ Buwana is a mound near the seashore, which is located behind Yanbu.
