Allah Almighty draws near and descends to the lowest heaven on the Day of Arafat, and He boasts of the people of Arafat to the angels. This descent, proximity, and drawing near are specific to the people of Arafat. As for forgiveness and emancipation, they are hoped for all Muslims, whether they stood at Arafat or not, from among the people of the cities.
