The
way in which the pilgrimage to Makkah
can be performed and the regulations
governing its rites vary according to
where the pilgrim lives or whether one
intends to make 'Umrah along with Hajj
or whether one wants to offer an animal
sacrifice or not. These variations have
been traditionally grouped into three
categories and referred to as the three
types of Hajj: Hajj Ifraad, Hajj Qiraan
and Hajj Tamattu'. Any one of these
three methods, if performed according to
their regulations without doing any
actions which invalidate them, fulfill
the
compulsory Islamic requirement of Hajj
once in a lifetime. The three
permissible kinds of Hajj with the rules
and regulations governing each of them
are as follows:
Hajj
Ifraad (Isolated Hajj)
This refers to Hajj performed by itself
without 'Umrah and the pilgrim
performing this type of Hajj is called a
Mufrid. Such a pilgrim is required to
enter the state of Ihraam with the
intention of doing Hajj only.
Regulations
concerning Ifraad
1. Although the
Mufrid may offer an animal sacrifice if
he wants to, he is under no obligation
to do so.
2. If a pilgrim
who has made intentions of Hajj Ifraad,
performs 'Umrah during the months of
Hajj (Shawwaal, Dhul-Qa'dah and
Dhul-Hijjah) prior to the beginning of
the Hajj rites proper (the eighth of
Dhul-Hijjah), he is no longer considered
Mufrid. He must now shift to one of the
other two types of Hajj combine 'Umrah
along with them and their regulations
must instead be followed.
3. On arrival
in Makkah the Mufrid is required to make
Tawaaf (circling) of the Ka'bah known as
Tawaaf al-Qudoom (the arrival circuit).
4. This is the
only type of Hajj allowed for those
living within the boundaries from which
Ihraam is put on. These boundaries are
known as Meeqaat.
Hajj
Qiraan (Accompanied Hajj)
This is Hajj combined with 'Umrah
without coming out of Ihraam, and the
pilgrim performing this type of Hajj is
known as a Qaarin. The Qaarin should
enter the state of Ihraam with the
intention of performing 'Umrah and Hajj
together.
Regulations
concerning Qiraan.
1. For Hajj
Qiraan, the 'Umrah has
to be done within the months of Hajj (Shawwaal,
Dhul-Qa'dah and the first ten days of
Dhul-Hijjah) and completed before
beginning the rites of Hajj.
2. The Qaarin
should clip his hair after 'Umrah
instead of shaving it.
3. The Qaarin
is not allowed to come out of the Ihraam
no matter how long the period between
his 'Umrah and Hajj may be.
4. The Tawaaf made
for 'Umrah takes the place of Tawaaf al-Qudoom.
5. The Qaarin
must sacrifice the animal which he
brought along
with him from the boundaries known as
the Meeqaat.
Hajj Tamattu' (Enjoyable Hajj)
'Umrah is also combined with Hajj under
this type; however, a new Ihraam is made
for the Hajj. The pilgrim performing
this type of Hajj is known as a
Mutamatti'. The name Tamattu was chosen
because the Mutamatti' is allowed to
come
out of Ihraam after the completion of
his 'Umrah, and enjoy all the pleasures,
which were allowable prior to Ihraam,
including sex.
Regulations
Concerning Tamattu'
1. The 'Umrah
has to be within the months of Hajj and
must be completed before beginning the
rites of Hajj.
2. The Mutamatti'
should clip his hair instead of shaving
it to come out of his state of Ihraam.
3. After
completing 'Umrah, the pilgrim making
Hajj Tamattu' must come out of his or
her state of Ihraam.
4. After coming
out of the Ihraam
of 'Umrah, the Mutamatti' is allowed to
do everything that was permitted before
going into the state of Ihraam.
