 HAJJ AND UMRAH
In light of Quran and Hadith

PREFACE
Hajj is one of the important acts among the five pillars of Islam (Surah Ale Imran
3:97, Sahih Bukhari Hadith No 8). Hajj is one among the mandatory worships, by
which the slave tries to please his creator by his wealth, body and soul. So that by his

co r
deeds Allaah gets pleased and satisfied with the efforts.

a. e
di lish
m
For the acceptance of any Deed, There are two Conditions in Islam

1. The Sincerity, Meaning to do all the works and actions for Allaah alone.
2. And all the Deeds and actions should be done as per the teachings of Allaah

Pe b
and Prophet Muhammad (‫)ﷺ‬.

m Pu
The meaning of the above two conditions implies that the Haaji (Pilgrims who are
performing Hajj) should protect himself from Shirk, Show off, Innovations and every
kind of evil action. And the Haaji should give his best in obeying Allaah and Prophet
(‫ )ﷺ‬commands and teachings.
la e
Prophet Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬said: “Khuzoo Anni Manaasikakum”. (O people learn the
Is m

Rituals of Hajj from Me). So this booklet is based on the above command of Prophet
Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬so that the pilgrims can use this booklet for their convenience.
sk tti

This booklet on Hajj and Umrah covers all the issues like its commandments,
.A in

questions, obligatory actions and their reward are presented in easiest possible way
with numbers, main headings, side headings and images. So that the one who is going
w Pr

to perform Hajj and Umrah can keep this book as a Guide during the journey.

I thank from the bottom of my heart to each and everyone who are directly and
indirectly involved in making this booklet. I specially thank Shaikh Taha Sayeed
w M

Khalid Umri Madani, Shaikh Aneesur Rahman A'zami, Shaikh Osman Umri, Shaikh
Noor Uddin Umri, Shaikh Abdur Rahman Umri Madani, Shaikh Abdullah Umri,
AB

Javeed Hussain, Faheem Iqbal, Kashif and the entire team of AskIslampedia.com.
May Allaah shower his blessings and mercy on all of them. Ameen

I supplicate to Allaah to accept this effort from me. And bless me, my parents,
w

relatives and all my near and dears in this world and the hereafter. Ameen.

Wa Salam

I request the Haajis to supplicate for us.

 Umrah
In light of Quran and Sunnah

To perform Hajj-e-Tammattu’, it is mandatory to perform Umrah. So first perform

Umrah upon the given procedure.

co r
a. e
Everyone who does Umrah should remember the following:

di lish
m
IHRAAM

1. If necessary, get a haircut public hair and arm pit then take a bath and apply

Pe b
perfume before Ihram.1

2.
m Pu
Wear Ihram, men should remove all the stitched clothes and wear the
unstitched clothes. Preferably Ihram should be white, and it should be neat and clean.
Women should wear their normal clothes covering from head to toe except face and
la e
hands. Women clothes should be free from all kind of jewelry and attraction. The
clothes should be simple and unappealing.2
Is m

Footwear which does not cover up the ankles is permissible.

sk tti

Note: Those who go to Jeddah through flights can put on their Ihram before they take
.A in

the flight. But after reaching Meeqat in the state of Ihram, the intention of Umrah
should be made.3
w Pr

Note: Niyyah is the mere intention in the heart. In other worships such as Salah,
Zakah, etc the Niyyah in done only in the heart. Like Allaahu Akbar in beginning of
Salah, for Hajj and Umrah Niyyah is required in the heart and followed by words
w M

through tongue.
AB

MEEQAAT AND INTENTION

3. After reaching Meeqat in the state of Ihram, make the Intention for Umrah in
w

the Heart and say “Allaahumma Labbaika Umratan” (Here I am, O Allaah, for
Umrah)4

Hajjatun Nabi (‫ – )ﷺ‬Shaik Bin Baaz

Sahih Muslim - 1232

14
 *If a person doesn't do the same and he goes ahead without being in the state of Ihram
and making the intention, then he has to offer a recompense. (One sheep should be
sacrificed and distributed to the people of Makkah)

**If you are performing Umrah on behalf of others then along with intention say

co r
“Allaahumma Labbaika Umratan An ……….)” (Here I am, O Allaah, for Umrah

a. e
from so and so) saying this take the name of the person as well.1

di lish
m
***If a person reads the dua “Allaahumma mahilli Haisu Habastani” (O Allaah, I
shall be free from Ihram where you detain me)2, there is a great benefit, as, if he
happens to face any hindrance and is stopped before reaching Makkah, then he can

Pe b
remove his Ihram where he was stopped and will not have to give Dum (Sacrificing a
sheep). If he is unable to reach Makkah, then without performing Dum (sacrificing a

m Pu
sheep) he can take off Ihram and his Hajj will be correct.3

****If this hajj is Nafeel then there is no penalty for it but if you are performing
la e
Obligatory Hajj, then it will not make your Hajj be counted or Valid. Whenever the
financial conditions etc are good again, you need to perform the obligatory Hajj
Is m

compulsorily.
sk tti

*****There is no particular Salah for putting on the Ihram. But it is preferable to were
.A in

Ihram after any Fard Salah.4

w Pr

Some scholars say that it is preferable to offer two Raka’h Salah at Zul Hulaifah
(Meeqat of Madina). This is not the Salah of Ihram, but this Salah is based on the
intention to gain its particular reward. Allaah knows Best.
w M

TALBIYAH
AB

4. After putting on the Ihram, say the Talbiyah loudly “Labbaik Allaahumma
Labbaik, Labbaik Laa Shareeka laka Labbaik, Innal hamda Wan Ne’mata Laka
Wal Mulk Laa Shareeka Lak” (Here I am, O Allaah, here I am. Here I am, You
w

have no partner, here I am. Verily all praise and blessings are Yours, and all
sovereignty, You have no partner)5

 Importance of Talbiyah
Talbiyah is among the symbols of the Hajj. The best Hajj is the one where the
Talbiyah is aloud.1

When the person says Talbiyah, along with him all the stones and plants on his right

co r
and left side of the way say “Labbaik” and its reward will be written in the account

a. e
of the person who says Talbiyah.2

di lish
m
The following dua’s are also proven by our Prophet Muhammad ‫ﷺ‬:

Pe b
1. “Labbaika Ilaahal Haq” (Here I am, O God of truth)3

m Pu
and after the Talbiyah, Prophet Muhammad ‫ ﷺ‬had gave permission to add some
more dua’s like:
la e
2. “Labbaika Zal Ma'aarij Laabaika Zal Fawaazil” (Here I am, O the Possessor of
ascension, Here I am, O the separator)4
Is m
sk tti

3. “Labbaika Allahumma Labbaik, Labbaika Wa Sa'daaik Wal Khairu fee

yadaik warraghbaa’u ilaika wal 'Amal” (Here I am at your service; here I am at
your service; ready to obey you. The Good is in your Hand. Here I am at your service.
.A in

Unto you is the petition and deed (is also for You))5

Muslim sisters around her could hear the Talbiyah)6

 Entering Makkah
5. As soon as you see the people of Makkah and the city of Makkah (Buildings etc)
stop reciting Talbiyah1

*To enter Makkah in the day2 or if someone try to enter through Saniyaulya (Babul

co r
MuaAllaah) and trying to enter Masjid-e-Haram through Baab Bani Shebah then it is

a. e
correct and permissible and is from the Sunnah of our prophet Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬to

di lish

do so. But assuming it as an Obligation is not at all correct. So, neither put yourselves
in trouble nor others in doing so.

 HAJJ
In The Light Of Quran And Sunnah
There are three types of Hajj:

1. Hajj-e- Tamatt'u
2. Hajj-e- Qiraan
3. Hajj-e- Ifraad

co r
a. e
di lish

Note: In general, Indian pilgrims usually perform Hajj-e-Tamatt'u, in this book we
discussed only about the Hajj-e-Tamatt'u.

Pe b
For performing Hajj-e-Tamatt'u, it is mandatory to perform Umrah, so you can

m Pu
perform Umrah as mentioned above and then put off your Ihram.

Following is the procedure to perform Hajj-e-Tamatt’u:

la e
Intention for Hajj
Is m

1. Put on your Ihram in Makkah from your place on 8th of Zil Hijjah (Yaum ut

2. Before putting on Ihram, bath (Ghusl) and apply perfume on your body.2
w Pr

Note: But after wearing Ihram, one should not apply perfume and Women should
w M

neither apply perfume on the Ihram nor on the body.

AB

3. With the intention of Hajj say these words "Allaahumma Labbaika Hajjan" (O
Allaah, Here I am, for ‘Hajj)3

Verily all praise and blessings are Yours, and all sovereignty, You have no partner)1

co r
a. e
5. Read this Dua one time: “Allaahumma Hajjatun La Riya-a Feeha Wala

Sunrise stoning at the Jamarah is prohibited (Tirmidhi). But it is permissible to stone

the Jamarah from Afternoon to night.1

is a superior action, but cutting the hair is also permissible. Shaving or Hair cut should

be begun from the Right side.2

20. Tawaaf-e-Ifaadah and Sa’ee: Perform Tawaf-e-Ifazah or Ziyarah by going to
Makkah from Mina. (It is not proven to perform Iztebaa and Ramal in Tawaf-e-ifazah
so do not perform, but after 7 circumambulation 2 Raka’h Salah is proven. So, after
la e
performing Tawaf-e-Ifazah offer 2 Raka’h Salah), Drink Zamzam and pour some on
your head. Later Perform Sa'ee of Mount Safa and Mount Marwa and come back to
Is m

Mina from Makkah.3

Note: If any of the above actions are done in random way, there is nothing wrong in

it. If you miss the sequence or order of the above actions, it is not at all necessary to
perform Dum (Sacrificing a sheep).4

Note: The obligations of wearing Ihram will be finished as soon as the stoning at
Jamrah E Kubra. Even now the person who is performing Hajj cannot have
intercourse with his wife. Once done with Tawaf, Ziyarath and Sa’ee the man can
w M

have intercourse with his wife. (Albani)

AB

According to another view, out of the 4 actions on the 10th of Zul Hijjah, it will be
allowed to remove the ihram and wear normal clothes after performing any two
w

actions. Moreover, after doing the last action, his wife becomes permissible for him to
have sexual intercourse. (Ibn Baaz)5

 Note: It is better to stay away from difference of opinion, and one must remove
Ihram, only after performing two actions. If a person removes Ihram, after performing
only one action, then he need not give any penalty since according to Shaykh Albani,
only one act is required to remove Ihram. However, the wife becomes permissible for
sexual intercourse only after the 4 actions are performed and there is no difference of
opinion regarding it.

co r
Note: It should be taken care of that the Ihram should be removed and were normal

a. e
clothes after pelting the stones on 10th. Due to late night if one is not able to perform

di lish
Tawaf -e-Ziyarath or Ifaadah, in this case he should perform Tawaf in Ihram. After

m
Tawaf E Ziyarath you can take off the Ihram and were your normal clothes.1

Note: (According to some scholars, After Magrib if someone performs Tawaf-e-

Pe b
Ziyarath in his normal clothes, it is permissible because wearing Ihram for second

time is not compulsory.) Allaah knows the Best.

 Opinion One: Some Pilgrims go to Jeddah or other places after their Hajj, so they
should perform the Tawaaf e Wida before leaving Makkah and going to Jeddah.
Once, they are returning home, then they should perform Tawaaf e Wida again.
(Shaykh Anees ur Rahman Aazmi )

Opinion Two: According to Shaykh Waseeullah Abbas, if he is going to Jeddah and

co r
there is a certainty that he will return to Makkah, then he will perform Tawaaf e Wida

a. e
only after returning from Jeddah since it requires a certain and sure exit from Makkah

di lish
to warrant Tawaaf e Wida. Since the word which has been used is “Nafar” which

alludes to a certain exit from Makkah and going to Jeddah and then coming back is
not a certain exit.
