Women are obligated to perform all the namazs during Hac just as men are, with the same timings, combinations, and shortening that apply to all hacilar at the Hac sites. At Arafat, women combine and shorten Dhuhr and Asr. At Muzdelife, they combine and shorten Maghrib and Isha. At Mina, they shorten the namazs but do not combine them. The only women exempted from namaz are those who are menstruating or experiencing post-natal bleeding.
Sheikh Ibn Baz emphasized that women should pray with the congregation when possible, standing in rows behind the men as is the Sunnah. If the crowd is too dense or there is no separate women's section, women may pray in their tents or designated areas. He stated that a woman's namaz is valid whether performed in congregation or individually, but congregation is preferred when accessible and safe.
Sheikh Al-Fawzan noted that women at the Hac sites should establish namaz on time and not neglect it due to the busy schedule of rites. He mentioned that some women miss namazs during the movement between sites, which is impermissible. Women should plan their movements to accommodate namaz times. If necessary, they may pray on the ground wherever they are, as the entire earth has been made a place of namaz. They should have a clean garment or namaz mat with them at all times during the Hac journey.
