´It was narrated that ‘Aishah said:` “We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, should we not build you a house in Mina that will be a means of shade for you?’ He said: ‘No, Mina is just a stopping place for those who get there first.’”

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Commentary:
1:
Because it is not permissible to allocate Mina exclusively for anyone,
it is the land designated for acts of worship such as stoning (rami),
sacrifice (dhabh), and shaving (halq), etc.
If permission were given to build houses there, the entire plain would become filled with buildings, and there would be no space left for worship.
