Question:

Is aziziyah considered a part of Makkah?

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

We are of the view that Aziziyah is not part of Mecca Mukarramah.

Aziziyah and Mecca Mukarramah will be treated as two separate places.

Therefore, if one intends to take up residence in Mecca and Azizia jointly for fifteen days, then he will be considered a Musāfir as long as 15 days is not spent in one of the two places consecutively.
