Virtues of Hajj

Hajj is the Fifth Pillar of Islam.

Hajj is one of the best actions of worship.

Hajj makes you Purified from Sins as a newborn with no sins.

Hajj has no reward but Jannah.

The performance of Umra is an expiation for the sins committed

between it and the previous Umra;

Hajj is the Jihaad of women, children, old people, and weak individuals

The pilgrims are the Guests of Allah and whatever they ask for they are
granted and what they pray for it is granted to them and what
they spend of they are rewarded for it. They are granted a
recompense of 1,000,000 dirhams for the sake of 1 dirham spent.

The performance of Hajj and Umrah increase a persons life span

and eradicates poverty and sins.

There is no day when Allah sets free more servants from Hell than
the Day of Arafah

Destination Options-Mecca First

Less common

Perform Umrah and Hajj First before going to Medina

You need to have a pair of Ihraam towels with you for your Umra before
travel. .

Put on Ihraam towels in the airport or at the last stop of your trip or
before boarding your flight to Jeddah.

Its extremely difficult to put on Ihraam towels in the airplane.

You assume Ihraam for Umrah before landing in Jeddah.
as Jeddah is beyond the Meeqat.

Make the Niyyah and say Talbiyah when Meeqat is announced in the
flight, approximately 30-45 minutes before landing at Jeddah.

Meeqat

The geographical boundary that a person intending Hajj or Umra may not cross
without assuming Ihraam for Hajj or Umra, or both.

A Muslim intending Hajj or `Umra who crosses the Meeqat without Ihraam must
return to the Meeqat and make Ihraam from there or offer a sacrifice (Hady).

THE RITES OF UMRAH:

The only rites of Umrah are:
1.Entering the state of Ihram
2.Tawaf of Kabah
3.Sayee between the hills of Safa
and Marwah
4.4. Shaving or clipping of the hair

1.IHRAM
The literal meaning of Ihram is to make haraam
(forbidden).
When a haji pronounces the Niyyah (intention) Umrah
and utters Talbiyah, certain halaal (permissible) things
become haraam for him.
The two sheets that a haji wears are figuratively
known as Ihram but the real Ihram is Niyyah &
Talbiyah.
If someone wears these two sheets and does not
declare his intention and utter Talbiyah, he does not
become a Muhrim.
That is why, before Niyyah and Talbiyah, he can cover
his head during two rakahs of Nafl, an act which is not
allowed in the real state of Ihram.

Ihram For Men and Women

Men-Ihram for men consists of two pieces of
white, unsewn cloth, One of the piece (izar) is
wrapped round the midriff to cover his body from
just above his navel to his ankles, and the other
(Rida) is draped around his shoulders to cover
the upper
body

BELT

Women-According to many hadiths, it is not

necessary for a woman to wear special clothing
while in a state of ihram. Women are expected to
wear clothing that conceals the shape and
covers the body completely, leaving only their
faces and hands exposed. According
to some authors, however, gloves can be worn.

2.Intention and Talbiyah. Now uncover your head and declare your
intention. It is assumed that you are performing Hajj al-Tammat'u in which
Umrah is performed first as described later in the "Kinds of Hajj".

allaahumma innee ureedul umrata fayassirhaalee

minnee

wataqabbalhaa

Immediately after that utter the words of Talbiyah three times and as often
afterwards as possible. If you don't remember it, you can say its translation
in English or in any other language but Talbiah or its translation is
pronounced in a loud voice by men and in a subdued voice by women.!

TABIYAH

"Labbayk, Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayk. La

shareeka laka.
Labbayk.Innal-hamda wan-n'imata laka wal-mulk. La
shareeka lak."
Here I am, O Lord, here I am,
You indeed have no partner, here I am
No Doubt, all praise and bounties are yours,
and so is the absolute Domain.
You indeed have no partners, here I am

3.Du'a.

After this recite Darud Sharif and supplicate to

Allah Almighty any du'a in Arabic or in your own
language.

4.Prohibitions of Ihram. After intention and Talbiyah,

you are in the status of Ihram and from this time on you
should not do acts that are forbidden in Ihram
Cover head (men), cover face (women)
Cover the middle bone of the upper part of the feet
(Both men and women))
Shave / cut hair
Cut nails
Wear perfume
Wear stitched clothing (men) / (Women can wear their
ordinay clothes)
Hunting / killing
Sex

5. Journey towards Makkah

When this sacred journey towards Makkah al-Mukarrama starts, recite
Talbiyah frequently on the way.

Then enter the city very humbly and with great fondness still reciting
Talbiyah.

After arranging for your residence, proceed to the Haram Sharif to

perform Umrah. Ihram:

You should be already in Ihram for Umrah before

entering Mecca as mentioned above
5. Entering Masjid al-Haram: While reciting Talbiyah, enter
Masjid al-Haram preferably through Bab as-Salam with right foot first.

bismillaahi wassalaatu wassalaamu alaa rasoolillaah.

Allaahummaftah lee abwaaba rahmatik

MECCA & HARAM

Restrictions while in the Haram

Every good deed or bad deed is multiplied by 100,000
times
Its plants must not be cut
Its game must not be frightened,
Articles lost in it must not be picked up except by
someone making announcement to find the owner,
Nor is any man to bear arms for fighting in it. Note:
the above is part of a Hadith of the Prophet (pbuh)
These restrictions apply to the haram of Madinah as
well.

They apply to everyone whether in a state of Ihraam

or not, during any time of the year

2. TAWAF OF UMRAH
Tawaf means circling around something . Here it means moving around
Ka bah seven times with extreme love and devotion.
1.Preparation: Pass the upper sheet of Ihram from underneath the right
arm and put it on the left shoulder. This act bares the right shoulder and is
known as Iztaba. Ablutions (vudu) is essential for tawaf. Reciting of Talbiyah
is stopped when you reach Hajar-e- Aswad, the starting point of tawaf.
2.Niyyah (Intention): Stand in front of Ka bah facing Hajar-e-Aswad (the
Black Stone) in such a way that the whole Hajre-e-Aswad is on your right
side. To achieve this end, you may get help from the black stripe on the
floor. This stripe should be on your right side. Then without raising your
hands make Niyyah (intention) for Umrah:

" O Allah, I perform Tawaf of Umrah to please You. Make it easy for
me and accept it from me."

4.Tawaf Starts:

After Istilam, turn right and start tawaf counter

clockwise.WARNING

The authorities often apply perfume to Hajar-e-Aswad,

Rukn Yamani and Multazam. If so, do not touch them while
in the state of Ihram, otherwise a dum will be required as a
penalty.
During tawaf, it is not permissible to face or turn your back
towards Kabah except when you are kissing or pointing
towards Hajar-e-Aswad.
5.Ramal:
For the first three circuits of Tawaf of Umrah and Tawaf of
Arrival, men are required to move their shoulders and walk
with quick short steps.
This act is called Ramal and is Sunnah.
They walk normally during the remaining four circuits.

part of the Ka bah but which could not be included in the main structure
when the Ka bah was rebuilt. It is obligatory to go around Hatim also while
performing tawaf.
8.Rukn Yamani and its Supplications: After passing the three corners of the
Ka bah you reach the fourth corner known as Rukn Yamani. Touch it with
both hands or with right hand. There is a beautiful supplication to be used
while walking between Rukn Yamani and Hajar-e-Aswad:

"Rabbana atina fid-dunya hasanatan wa fil-akhirati hasanatan wa

qina azabin-nar."
Our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) has repeatedly recited this
supplication. The first circuit is complete when you reach Hajar-e-Aswad.

Now, come to Multazam
which is a place five or six feet
in length between Hajar-e-Aswad
and the door of Kabah.
This is a highly sacred place where
Black Stone
prayers are accepted.
if it is possible to reach Multazam,
cling to it pressing your chest and
cheeks, and while trembling
and crying with devotion and
with all humility seek Allahs mercy,
His blessings and ask Him whatever you wish.
If you are unable to come close
to Multazam, just face towards it and
supplicate from a distance.
Multazam

13.After Completing Tawaf, proceed to Maqaame Ibraaheem (Prophet

Ibraaheem's station) Recite this verse (which means):

1.Next offer two rakahs of nafls behind and close to Maqam Ibrahim
without covering your head. If it is zawal time when sajdah is not allowed,
you have to wait till this undesirable time is passed and then offer prayers.
In the niyyah (intention), say that you are offering 2 rakahs of nafls wajib
al- tawaf. Recite Qul ya ayya hal kafroon in the first rakah and Qulhu wallah
in the second rakah. After this, supplicate to Allah in Arabic or in your own
language. Ask Him whatever you wish and invoke His blessings.
If it is not possible to offer this obligatory prayer near Maqam Ibrahim, it can
be offered anywhere in Mataf, or in Hatim or anywhere in Masjid al-Haram or
even at any place in Haram of Makkah.!

TWO RAKA`TH

7 RUNS BETWEEN SAFA & MARWA

Between the Green Columns

MARWAH
(Finish)

The Saiy Area is approximately Km each round

The total seven rounds is less than 3.5 km.

SAFA
(Start)

4. At Marwah.
When on top of marwah, praise Allah facing the
Kabah and repeat the same supplications that
were recited at Safa.
One trip is over, second trip will be on Safa and
third trip will be on Marwah.
5.End of Saey. In the same way, the seventh trip
will end at Marwah.
In all trips the men will run between the green
pillars but the women will walk in a normal way.
6.Two rakaat Nafl. If it is not an undesirable
(Makrooh) time, offer two rakaats of nafl in the alHaram.

Shaving or Clipping of hair.

After Saey, men should get their heads
completely shaved or get their hair clipped to the
length of the upper third of their finger or a little
more.
Both shaving and clipping are permissible for men,
though shaving is preferable.
Women are, however, allowed to have a lock of
their hair clipped. They are forbidden to shave their
heads.

7.Umrah is complete.
After cutting the hair, umrah is complete. The
restrictions of Ihram are finished.
Now wear your everyday clothes and lead a normal
life. Be thankful to Allah that He provided the
opportunity for performing Umrah and lead rest of
your life according to the commands of your
Creator.

NAFL TAWAF

You may perform Umrah as often as you want

according to the above procedure.
And if you want to perform just a nafl Tawaf, follow
the same procedure, however, in a nafl Tawaf there
is no Ihram, no Ramal, no Iztaba and even no
Saey.

Performing multiple Umras

This practice has no basis in the Sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh) or the
practice of his companions (rAa).

There is no report that the Prophet (pbuh) or the companions after him
accumulated multiple Umras while staying in Makkah waiting for Hajj.

Repeating the Umra incurs hardship and causes many pilgrims to

miss on Fardh prayers because of tiredness.

One who repeats the Umra may be compared to someone who prays the
Sunnah of Fajr, and while waiting for the Fardh prayer decides to stand
up and repeat the Sunnah multiple times, or someone who decides to
repeat the Witr prayer after Isha.

The exception here is a Umra which one performs for:

A deceased person
A sick) or an old person who is not able to perform Umra by himself/
herself.
Fulfillment of a pledge.

Stay in Makkah
If you did Tamattu, you completed your Umra and now remain in the state of

Hill ( ( ) being out of the state of Ihraam) until the day of Tarwiyah (8 th DhulHijjah).

While in Makkah use time wisely, it is so precious there. Avoid excessive time on
shopping and idle discussions

In the Haram, the reward for good deeds is multiplied 100,000 times, and so is
the punishment for sins.

Try not to miss any salat in the Masjid Al-Haram; each salat there is better than
100,000 salat elsewhere: the equivalent of more than 55 years of salat!

Make optional tawaf as much as possible, as it is better than salat in the Masjid AlHaram. But do not exhaust yourself.

Keep yourself busy with salat, recitation of the Quran, Tawaf, dhikr and reflection.
Make lots of dua.

Do not neglect other forms of Ibadah: charity, fasting, help others, say salam,
smile, etc.

Try not to walk in front of any praying person in the masjid. You should pray two
rak'at of "taHiyyat al-masjid" in case you don't intend to make Tawaf. .

evening of Arafah is:

Laa ilaha illallaahu wahdahu laa shareeka lahu lahul mulk wa lahul hamdu wa huwa
'alaa kulli shay'in qadeer. There is no god except Allah, He has no partner. To Him

Hit Jamrah Aqabah with seven pebbles one after the other

Say when throwing: Allahu Akbar Do not supplicate when finished

throwing stones

Stop saying Talbiyah when you throw the first pebble. Also don't stop for
du'a. Just go to your residence and do Qurbani (animal sacrifice).

TaHallul - When you have stoned the Jamrah everything becomes

lawful for you again except sexual intercourse, even if you have not
sacrificed or shaved your head - so you may wear your clothes and use
perfume.

This partial freedom is called taHallul Asghar (the small taHallul).

Makkah - 10 Dhul-Hijjah
Then you go off that day to Makkah and make Tawaf alIfaDah in the same way as in the Tawaf of arrival, except
that there is no idtiba (uncovering right shoulder) or ramal
(bold walk) in this Tawaf.
Follow the same procedures as Tawaf of Umrah

Pray two rak'ahs behind Maqaam Ibraheem, if possible, or

anywhere in the masjid if not.

Then you do say between Safaa and Marwah as before.

After this Tawaf (al-Ifadah) you are in a state of complete

taHallul.

Drink from Zamzam.

Return to Mina.

Mina 10th-12th Dhul Hijjah

There are four acts to be performed between the 10th and 12thof Dhul Hijjah:

Rami (pelting) This has to be performed on each day.

Nahr (Animal sacrifice)

Halaq or Qasar (Shaving or trimming hair)

Tawaf al-Ziyarah

Rami (pelting) is performed on the 10th, 11th and 12th.

Nahr, Halaq/Qasar and Tawaf al-Ziyarah must be performed within the three
days of 10th,11th and 12th.

Slaughter your animal in any part of Mina or Makkah unless you have coupon
for sacrifice.

Then you shave off all of your hair or shorten it. Shaving is better.

If you shorten your hair it has to be from all over the head, not part of it only
(like the sides). Start with the right side of the head. The woman shortens her
hair the length of a finger joint.

Go to your camp in Mina, take a shower, put on new clothes and perfume.

Rami- Pelting of Stones

Rami is wajib.It is sunnah to pelt with the right hand.
It is sunnah to say Allahu Akbar with every throw.
Minahas three tall pillars known as Jamaraat.
These pillars mark the places where Ibrahim was tested by the whispers of Shaytan
Thethree pillars are:

Jamaraat al-Aqabah or Kubra (The big pillar)

Jamaraat al-Wusta (The middle pillar)

Jamaraat al-Sughra (The small pillar)

One should throw the pebbles one at a time and not all at onc The recitation of the
Talbiyah will end upon the first throw.

As long as the pebbles land within the enclosure, regardless of whether they hit the pillar
or not, it counts as a valid throw.

Do not stop to make dua at the Jamarat after pelting. Keep moving.

On the 10th of Dhul Hijjah, only pelt the biggest pillar 7 times.

On the 11th,12th and 13th (if one stays), one will pelt each pillar seven times, beginning
from the smallest.
The times for pelting the Jamarah al-Aqabah

Before sunrise Makruh

Sunrise-Midday- Sunnah

Makkah-Mina

Leave Mina for Makka on 13th Dhil -Hijj after throwing

stones

Stay in Mina for the days of tashreeq ( <I&J92 #I ) and their nights.

Most scholars consider the staying in Mina as a Wajib. You may go at

night to make tawaf and return to Mina if you wish. It is reported that
the Prophet (pbuh) did it.

Stone the three Jamarat each with seven pebbles in each of those
days, after zawaal (when the sun moves from its zenith, i.e. Dhuhr
time).

After the first and the second Jamarat, move forward to the side and
stand facing the Qiblah for a long time making du'a while raising your
hands.

Return to Mina

You may leave on the 12th after stoning the Jamaraat if you
wish

Tawaf-e- Ziarah

Now perform Tawaf-e-Ziarat.

Tawaf al-Ziyarah is a fardh.

It can be performed any time, day or night, from 10 Zil Hijjah to the
sunset of 12 Zil Hijjah. Usually it is convenient to do it on 11 Zil Hijjah.

Its procedure is similar to that of Tawaf of Umrah and it is essential

that you have performed wudu.

According to Sunnah this tawaf is to be performed after Rami, sacrifice

and shaving or clipping of the hair, and every effort should be made to
do that, but the Fard stands discharged even if Tawaf-e-Ziarat is
performed prior to all these practices.

As mentioned earlier, Halq or Qasr after Qurbani lifts all the prohibitions
of Ihram but the private relations between man and wife are permitted
only after this Tawaf.

Until Tawaf al-Ziyarah is not performed, one cannot be intimate with

ones spouse

Tawaful wida - Farewell

Go to Makkah and make a farewell Tawaf.
Tawaf al-Wadaa is wajib.
It can be performed anytime after Tawaf al-Ziyarah.
Perform two Rakah of Tawaf.
The Prophet (pbuh) said:None of you should depart until he
makes his last act Tawaf of the House.
Even after Tawaf al-Wadaa, a person can enter the
Masjid, perform Tawaf, Salah and even Umrah.

No Say needed but if you do same as say of Umrah

Leave masjid with left foot saying Darood + duah

Makkah - Last day

Let the Tawaf be the last thing you do in

Makkah

Obligation before leaving Makka. Tawaaf Wida

After Tawaf Al-Wida you must leave Makkah, or

else another Tawaf should be made.

Sunnah to bring Zamzam water home

When leaving Makka, recite travel duah.

May Allah accept your Hajj-Ameen

You will Insha'Allah return spiritually refreshed,

forgiven of their sins, and ready to start life anew,
with a clean slate.
