To gain love and
forgiveness from Allah Almighty the best
way to perform Hajj is the way the
Prophet (صلى
الله
عليه
وسلم) performed.
Allah Almighty says: قل
إن
كنتم
تحبون
الله
فاتبعوني
يحببكم
الله
ويغفر
لكن
ذنوبكمSay
if you love Allah, follow me, Allah will
love you and forgive you your sins.
(3:31)
The best type of Hajj is the Tamattu'
type. In Tamattu' Hajj the Pilgrim does
not bring sacrificial animals with him.
The Messenger of Allah (صلى
الله
عليه
وسلم) has
commanded his companions to do that.
Tamattu' Hajj is to perform Umrah in the
months of Hajj and to disengage from
Umrah and then again enter into the
state of Ihram for Hajj in the same
year.
UMRAH
1- If you want
to perform Umrah, first perform ghusl
(total wash), if possible, as you do for
Janabah. Next put on the Ihram cloths (Izar
& Rida). A female Muslim can wear
any decent clothes that does not expose
her body and beauty. Then Pronounce the
Talbiyah (i.e Labbaiyk which means: I am
ready to obey and respond to your call).
2- When you reach
Makkah, do Tawaf of the Ka`bah seven
times for Umrah starting from ööAl-Hajar
Al-Aswad (Black stone) and finishing by
it. Then perform two raka'hs behind
Muqam Ibraheem, if it is possible, or
any place (behind it).
3- After the
performance of two raka'hs, go to Safa
to perform Sa'i between Safa and Marwah
seven times commencing from Safa and
ending at Marwah.
4- After
completion of Sa'i you may shorten your
hair. By this, your Umrah is complete
and you may disengage from Ihram clothes
and put on normal clothes.
HAJJ
1- On the pre-noon
of the eighth Dhul-Hijjah enter into
Ihram from your place and perform ghusl
(total washing) if it is possible and
put on the Ihram cloths and repeat the
Talbiyah.
2- Set out and
stay at Mina to pray Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib,
Isha and Fajr Salahs. Every Salah
comprising of four raka'hs is to be
shortened to two raka'hs only.
3- At Arafah
perform Zuhr & Asr Salahs in
combination, each Salah is to be
shortened to two Raka'hs. Stay there
until sunset and implore Allah
frequently Facing the Qiblah.
4- When the sun
sets, march from Arafah to Muzdalifah.
Once at Muzdalifah you should pray
Maghrib, Isha and Fajr prayers. Stay
there to implore Allah until sunrise. If
you are weak and are not able to walk
and mingle with the crowd, you may go to
Mina at late night.
5- When the sun is
about to rise, walk from Muzdalifah to
Mina; when you arrive at Mina, do the
following:
A: Stone
Jamarah Al Aqabah which is located
nearest to Makkah. You have to throw
seven
pebbles, one by one, pronouncing Takbeer
at every throw.
B: Slaughter a
sacrificial animal, eat from its meat
and distribute the rest to the
indigents. The slaughtering of a
sacrificial animal is obligatory on
Mutamatti' (who benefits from Umrah to
Hajj) and Qarin (who combines Umrah and
Hajj).
C: Shave or
shorten the hair of your head. Shaving
is recommended (women should shorten
their hair equal to a finger tip
length). The order of the three
above-mentioned acts is: first, throwing
the pebbles, second, slaughtering the
sacrificial animal and third to shave or
shorten the hair of the head. There is
no harm if the order is interchanged.
After completion of the above mentioned
three acts, you can put on your normal
clothes and do all the acts prohibited
during the Hajj with the exception of
sexual intercourse.
6- Then go to
Makkah with the intention to perform
Tawaf Al-Ifadhah. (Tawaf Al-Hajj) and to
perform Sa'i between Safa and Marwah (Sa'i
Al-Hajj). By completion of Tawaf Al-Ifadhah,
every act prohibited for the pilgrim
during the Hajj time now becomes lawful
including sexual intercourse.
7- After
completion of Tawaf and Sa'i, go back to
Mina in order to spend the two nights of
11th and 12th of Dhul-Hijjah.
8- On the days of
11th and 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, after the
sun declines, throw the pebbles at the
three Jamarahs. Start with the furthest
from Makkah and then the middle one and
finally Jamarh Al-Aqabah. Throw seven
pebbles at each Jamarah and pronounce
the Takbeer every time a stone is
thrown. After throwing at the first and
the middle Jamarah, implore Allah facing
the Qiblah; it is a must that throwing
of the stones in these two days (i.e.
11th & 12th) be after Zawal (noon).
9- When you
complete throwing the pebbles on 12th
Dhul-Hijjah, you may go out of Mina
before sunset. If you want to delay
going out it is better to spend the
night of 13th Dhul Al-Hijjah at Mina and
repeat throwing pebbles at the three
Jamarahs after Zawal as before.
10- If you want to
go back home, you have to perform a
Tawaf Al-Wida' (seven rounds around the
Ka`bah). As for a woman in post birth
state and menstruating women, there is
no Tawaf Al-Wida' enjoined on them.
