The Day of ʿArafah (9th Dhū al-Ḥijjah) is among the most prominent devotional occasions in Islam, yet the origin of its virtue remains ambiguous because three elements coincide: time (the day), place (the plain of ʿArafāt), and devotional act (the standing of pilgrims). This study asks whether the virtue of the day is an intrinsic property of time, a sanctity of place, or a causal effect of the devotional act of wuqūf. Employing qualitative comparative thematic analysis, it examines selected narratives from Shīʿī sources (the Four Books and Biḥār al-Anwār) and Sunnī sources (the Ṣiḥāḥ al-Sittah), classified by source reliability, explicitness of signification, and comparability, and analyzes their relations through the uṣūlī principle of carrying the absolute upon the restricted. The findings identify three types of signification: absolute temporal virtue, explicit spatial causality, and temporal-spatial causality with the spatial extension of mercy. The absolute narratives state the principle of the virtue, while the causal ones identify its origin as the pilgrims' presence at ʿArafāt and the descent of divine mercy upon "the people of the standing." The study formulates the model of "spatial causality and the spatial extension of mercy," arguing that the virtue of the Day of ʿArafah is not primarily an independent property of time but arises from the devotional event of wuqūf at ʿArafāt, whose effects extend spatially to other believers. This framework reconciles the absolute and causal narratives and offers a new perspective on the determination of the Day of ʿArafah and ʿĪd al-Qurbān.
