    Wadi Muhassar (Arabic: وادي محسر) is a valley situated between Mina and Muzdalifah. It is a Sunnah to walk briskly through this area when crossing between the two sites. It is also reported to be the location where the army of Abraha was destroyed as they marched towards Makkah, as mentioned in Surah al-Fil.
