    THE JOURNEY

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Hajj is the annual pilgrimage to Makkah, a mandatory religious duty for Muslims who are physically and financially able to perform it at least once in their lifetime. It symbolizes devotion, unity, and purification of sins.

    Hajj occurs annually in the Islamic month of Dhul-Hijjah, from the 8th to 12th. These days hold immense spiritual significance, with the Day of Arafah (9th Dhul-Hijjah) being the most important.

    Hajj is obligatory for every adult Muslim who is mentally sound, physically able, and financially stable enough to afford the journey without debt or hardship. Women traditionally need a Mahram (male guardian), but some allowances are made for group travel.

    Hajj involves several sacred rituals, including entering Ihram, performing Tawaf (circling the Kaaba), Sa’i (walking between Safa and Marwah), standing at Arafat, spending the night in Muzdalifah, stoning the Jamarat (symbolizing the rejection of Shaytan), and performing Qurbani (sacrifice).

    Ihram is a state of spiritual purity that pilgrims enter before beginning Hajj. It involves wearing simple white garments (for men) and modest attire (for women), while also refraining from cutting hair, using perfume, or engaging in disputes. Ihram symbolizes equality, humility, and detachment from worldly affairs.

    Yes, if a person is unable to perform Hajj due to illness or death, another Muslim can perform Hajj Badal on their behalf. The individual performing it must have already completed their own Hajj.

    There are three types of Hajj: Hajj Tamattu’ (performing Umrah first, then Hajj), Hajj Qiran (performing Umrah and Hajj together without exiting Ihram), and Hajj Ifrad (performing only Hajj). Each type has slight differences in rituals but leads to the same ultimate spiritual fulfillment.

    The Day of Arafah (9th Dhul-Hijjah) is the most crucial part of Hajj. Pilgrims gather at Mount Arafat to seek forgiveness, make supplications, and reflect on their faith. It is said that sincere prayers made on this day are readily accepted by Allah.

    Tawaf involves circling the Kaaba seven times, a symbolic act of devotion and submission to Allah. Pilgrims also perform Tawaf al-Wada before leaving Makkah, marking the conclusion of their pilgrimage.

    Stoning the Jamarat represents rejecting Shaytan (Satan) and his temptations. Pilgrims throw seven pebbles at each of the three pillars over three days, following the example of Prophet Ibrahim (AS).

    Mistakes during Hajj are common, and minor errors can be corrected with sincere repentance. However, significant mistakes may require Damm (expiation), which involves sacrificing an animal or repeating a ritual if possible. Consulting a knowledgeable scholar is recommended.

    Hajj is a life-changing journey, and pilgrims should strive to maintain the spiritual purity they attained. This includes strengthening their faith, increasing their acts of worship, practicing patience and humility, and sharing their knowledge of Hajj with others.
