IMPORTANT ADVICE
Dear pilgrims, we praise Allah for having guided you
to the hall of His House and to the visit of the Sacred
Precincts. May He accept from all of us our good deeds
and Increase His reward for us and for you.
The following advice Is being offered to you in the
hope that Allah will accept from all of us our hajj and our
striving.
1. Remember that you are on a blessed journey. This
journey, which Is a migration toward Allah, is based on
belief In His Unity (tawheedJ, on sincerity toward Him,
on responding to His call, and on obedience to His
commands. There Is no greater reward than that of a hajj
which Is acceptable to Allah Ta'alah-the reward of the
Garden of Paradise.
2. 8e on your guard against the mischief of Satan, who
intends to cause dissention among you. Love each other
as brothers and avol d di sputes and di sobedi ence
to
Allah. Know
that tho Messenger
ol Allah
(may peace
and bl essl ngs of Al tah be on hi m) sal d, " None ol
you has
trul y bel l eved unl ess he l l kes for hl s brother what the l i kes
f or hl msel f . "
3. Whenever
you have a
questi on concerni ng
rel i gi ous
mattrs or concsrni ng
thenal l , ask knowl edgeabl e
Mus'
l i ms unt i l . you
recei ve a sat i sf act ory
answor.
Thi s i s i n
accordance with what Allah has said:
"lf
ye realise this not,
ask of those who
possess The Message." it is also in
accordance with what the Prophet
(peace be on him) has
said:
"When Allah intends
good for someone' He
gives
hi m understandi ng of the rel i gi on."
4. Know t hat Al l ah
has made cert ai n act s / ard
(obl i ga'
t ory) and ot her act s sry(accordi ng
t o t he
pract i ce
of
t he Prophet ,
peace be on hi m). Al l ah dos not accept a

r
as brothers and avoid disputes and disobedience to
Allah. Know that the Messenger of Allah (may peace
and blessings of Allah be on him) said, .. None of you has
truly believed unless he likes for his brother what the likes
for himself."
3. Whenever YQu have a question concerning religious
matters or concerning the hajj, ask knowledgeable Mus
Iims until.you receive a satisfactory answer. This is in
accordance with what Allah has said: "If ye realise this not,
ask of those who possess The Message." it is also in
accordance with what the Prophet (peace be on him) has
said: "When Allah intends good for someone, He gives
him understanding of the religion."
4. Know that Allah has made certain acts fard (obliga
tory) and other acts sunnah (according to the practice of
.---
the Prophet, peace be on him). Allah does not accept a
sunnah which violates some lard. Some pilgrims ignore
this fact when they harm believing men and women in
their zeal to kiss the Black Stone, to hasten in their cir
cuits around the K'abah, to make salah behind the Sta
t i on of l braheem, t o dri nk f rom Zamzam, . and sl ml l ar
practi ces.
These
practi ces
ere g!4trt!. To harm any
bel i ever i n doi ng them i s haram
(prohi bl ted). How i s i t
possi bl e
to carry out a srn4at observance whi l e doi ng a
haram deed? Therefore, avoi d hurti ng each other, and
Al l ah wi l l
grant you
Hi s mercy and wi l l i ncrease
your
reward.
We woul d al so l i ke t o emphasi ze
t he f ol l owi ng:
(a)
lt is not fitting that a Muslim man
performs his Satgt
next l o, or behi nd a woman i n t he Sacred
Mosque or at
any ot her
pl ace
i l i t i s at al l
possi bl e t o avoi d doi ng so.
Women shoul d
pr ay
behi nd men.
(b)The doors and ent rances t o t he Sacred Mosque
are

peopl e pr ayi ng

( c) l t i s not per mi ssi bl e

or al ' Hi j r or
tion of Ibraheem, to drink from Zamzam,. and similar
practices. These practices are ~ . To harm any
believer in doing them is haram (prohibited). How Is it
possible to carry out a ~ observance while doing a
haram deed? Therefore, avoid hurting each other, and
Allah will grant you His mercy and will increase your
reward.
We would also like to emphasize the following:
(a) It is not fitting that a Muslim man performs his Sa/at
next to, or behind a woman in the Sacred Mosque or at
any other place if it is at all possible to avoid doing so.
Women should pray behind men.
(b) The doors and entrances to the Sacred Mosque are
for traffic and should not be blocked by people praying
there, even though if it is to join the congregational
prayer that may be in progress.
(c) It is not permissible to block the free flow of people
around the K'abah by sitting near the K'abah, by praying
near it, or by standing near the Black Stone, or al.Hi}r or
at tho Statlon
of lbraheem,
especlally when the
place

Finally, the best advice we can give you Is that you
follow the Book of Allah and- the sunnah of His Mes
senger (peace be on him) in all what you do.
"Obey Allah and the Messenger In order that you may
receive mercy."
VIOLATIONS OF ISLAM
Brother and sister Muslim, you must be aware that
there are matters which nullity your Islam. We will men
tlon here the ten most common violations. Please be
mindful of them.
The First
Associating partners with Allah (shirk). Allah, the Most
High, says, "Truly, if anyone associates partners with
Allah, Allah will forbid him the Garden and his abode will be
the Fire; the wrongdoers will have no helpers."
Gal l l ng upon
the dead, askl ng thel r hel p' or offerl ng
them
gl fts or sacrl fl ces
are al l forms of sfi Irl r.
The Second

The Thlrd
Anyone
who does not consi der

or who has doubt s concernl ng
t hel r unbel l ef ,
or consl ders

l s
hl msel f an unbel l ever
(l raf l r).
The Fourth
Anyone
who bel l eves any

Prophet ' s
gul dance

perf ect , or a decl sl on
ot her t han
t he Prophet ' s
deci sl on t o be bet t er, l s an
r
Calling upon the dead, asking their help, or offering
them gifts or sacrifices are all forms of !!:!.!.!1L.
The Second
Setting up intermediaries between oneself and Allah,
making supplication to them, asking their Intercession
with Allah, and placing one's trust In them Is unbelief
~ .
The Third
Anyone who does not consider polytheists (!!!!!!!!!!..-
keen) to be unbelievers, or who has doubts concerning
their unbelief, or considers their way to be correct, Is
himself an unbeliever (kaflr).
The Fourth
Anyone who believes any guidance other than the
Prophet's guidance to be more perfect, or a decision
other than the Prophet's decision to be better, is an
unbel l vor.
Thl s appl l es to those who
prol er
the rul e of
Evl l
(
Iagnout) to the Prophet' s rul e. Some exampl es
of
thl s ar6:
(a)
To belleve that systems and
laws made by human
bel ngs are better than the
Eharl ' ah
of l sl am; for examPl e,
that
the l sl aml c system l s not sul tabl e for the twen'
tl eth century.
that l sl am l s the caueo ol the backwardness of Mus'
l l ms.
Or that lslam
is a rlationship between
Allah and
t he Musl l m.
l t shoul d not I nt rf ere I n ot her aspect s of
l l f a.
(b) To eay that enforcl ng the
punl shments
prescrl bed
by Al l ah, such as cut t l ng of f t he hand of a t hl ef or st o'
ning an adulterer,
is not suitable
in this day and age.
(c)To
bel l eve
t hat l t l s
perml ssl bl e t o
gl ve
a
rul e l rom
t het whl ch Al l ah dl d not reveal l n l sl aml c t ransact l ons or
mat t ers of l aw,
punl shment s or ot her af f al rs' Al t hough
unbeliever. This applies to those whoprufer the rule of
Evil (Taghout) to the Prophet's rule. Some examples of
this are:
(a) To believe that systems and laws made by human
beings are better than the ~ of Islam; for example,
that the Islamic system Is not suitable for the twen-
tieth century.
that Islam Is the cause of the backwardness of Mus-
lims.
Or that Islam is a relationship between Allah and
the Muslim. It should not Interfere In other aspects of
life.
(b) To say that enforcing the punishments prescribed
by Allah, such as cutting off the hand of a thief or sto-
ning an adulterer, is not suitable in this day and age.
(c) To believe that It Is permissible to give a rule from
that which Allah did not reveal In Islamic transactions or
matters of law, punishments or other affairs. Although
ono may not bel l evo such rul l ngs to bo l uPorl or to ths
Sharl ' ah he In effect aff l rms such a stand by decl arl ng a
thl ng whl ch Al l ah hae total l y
prohl bl ted,
such aa adul '
try, drl nkl ng al cohol or usuryr to be
perml ssl bl e.
Accordl ng t o t he congengus of Musl l ms, one who
decl ares such t hl ngs t o be
perml ssl bl e l s an unbel l ever
(*attL.
Tha Fl l t h
Anyone who hates any
part
of what the Messenger of
Allah
(may pace
and blessings of Allah be on him) has
declared to be lawful has nullified his lslam, even though
he may act in accordance
with it. Allah the Most Hi9t1
says:
"Bscause they disliked
what Allah has revealed,
thsir deeds are brought
to nothing."
The Sl xi h
Anyone who rl dl cul es any espoct of t he rel l gl on of t he
Meseenger ol Al l ah
(peace be on hl m), or any of l t s
rewarda or
punl shments, becomss an unbel l ever. Al l ah,
one may not believe such rulings to be .uperlor to the
ShIT/'sh he In effect affirms such a stand by declaring a
thing which Allah has totally prohibited, such a8 adul-
tery, drinking alcohol or usury, to be permissible.
According to the consensus of Muslims, one who
declares such things to be permissible Is an unbeliever
(kef/f).
The Filth
Anyone who hates any part of what the Messenger of
Allah (may peace and blessings of Allah be on him) has
declared to be lawful has nullified his Islam, even though
he may act in accordance with it. Allah the Most High,
says: "Because they disliked what Allah has revealed,
their deeds are brought to nothing."
The Sixth
Anyone who ridicules any aspect of the religion of the
Messenger of Allah (peace be on him), or any of Its
rewards or punishments, becomes an unbelleve.r. Allah,
the Most High, says:
"Say: Do
you ridicule
Allah'
His
revelalions and His Messenger?
Make no sxcus;
yotl
have disbelieved
after
your (profession of) faith"'
The Seventh
Thepr act i ceof magi ci nc| udedi nt hi si scausi ngar i f t
between
a husband and
wife by tuming
his love for her into
hatrsd, or tempUng
I
prson to do things
he dislikes
by
using blad< arts. One
who engages
in such
a thing or is
pleased with it is outside
the
pate
of lslam.
Allah the lviost
High, seys,
"Th two
(angels, Harut and Marut)
did
not
teach
anyone
(magic) without waming
thom,
'lndeed'
we
are a trial; lhen do not disbolieve."'
The Eighth
Supporting
and aiding
polythists against
tho
Muslims'
Allah the Most High, says:
"The one lrom among
yott who
supporls
them blongs to them.
Truly, Allah does
not
guide
the
people who do rvrong."
r
the Most High, says: "Say: Do you ridicule Allah, His
revelations and His Messenger? Make no excuse; you
have disbelieved after your (profession of) faith."
The Seventh
The practice of magic included in this is causing a rift
between a husband and wife by turning his love for her into
hatred, or tempting a person to do things he dislikes by
using black arts. One who engages in such a thing or is
pleased with it is outside the pale of Islam. Allah the Most
High, says, "The two (angels, Harut and Marut) did not
teach anyone (magic) without warning them, 'Indeed, we
are a trial; then do not disbelieve...
The Eighth
Supporting and aiding polytheists against the Muslims.
Allah the Most High, says: "The one from among you who
supports them belongs to them. Truly, Allah does not guide
the people who do wrong."
The Ni nth
Anyone who believes that some
people
are
permitted
to devi ate l rom the Shari ' ah of Muhammad (peace
be on
him) is an unbeliever by the word
of Allah, the Most High:
"lf
anyone seeks a religion other than al-lslam it will not be
accepted from him, and in the Hereafter he will be among
the losers."
Thp Tenth
To tum completely away
from the religion of Allah,
neither learning its
precepts nor acting upon it. Allah the
Most High, says:
"Who
does
greater wrong than the ons
who is reminded of the revelations ol his Lord and turns
away from them. Truly, We shall
recompense the
guilty"'
and He also says:
"But
those who disbelieve turn away
from that about which they are warned."
It makes no difference
whether such violations are
committed as a
joke,
in seriousness or out of fear, except
when they are done under compulsion.
We seek ref uge l n Al l ah f rom such deeds as ent al l Hl s
wrat h and severs
punl shment .
r
The Ninth
Anyone who believes that some people are permitted
to deviate from the Shari'ah of Muhammad (peace be on
him) is an unbeliever by the word of Allah, the Most High:
"If anyone seeks a religion other than allslam it will not be
accepted from him, and in the Hereafter he will be among
the losers."
Th.e Tenth
To tum completely away from the religion of Allah,
neither learning its precepts nor acting upon it. Allah the
Most High, says: "Who does greater wrong than the one
who is reminded of the revelations of his Lord and turns
away from them. Truly, We shall recompense the gUilty,"
and He also says: "But those who disbelieve tum away
from that about which they are warned."
It makes no difference whether such violations are
committed as a joke, in seriousness or out of fear, except
when they are done under compulsion.
We seek refuge in Allah from such deeds as entail His
wrath and severe punishment.

ERRORS OFTEN COMMITTED
BY PILGRIMS

Some pilgrims pypass the designated Station of Ihram
on their route without either being In Ihram or entering
Into!l!!!!E there, proceeding until they reach Jeddah or
some other place within the precincts 0.1 the Stations, at
which they enter into Ihrsm. This Is against the com-
mand of Allah's Messenger (peace be on him), which
stipulates that every pilgrim should enter Into Ihram at
the Station of!l1!!!!1 which lies on his route.
If this happens to someone, he must either- go back to
the Statfon of thram,l yl ng on hl s route end thero nter
tnto j !1gg, or he must make expl atl on by sacrl fl cl ng a
sheep In Makkah and feedl ng al l l ts meat to the

This applies to all
pilgrims regardless of whelher one

seven circuits while !!!.!!!!lls to be done only during the
first three of the Tawaf of Arrival (tawaf a/-C].!!!:!!:!!!!).
4. Struggling vehemently to kiss the Black Stone in this
process and hitting or pushing people. Such acts, which
are injurious to Muslims, are not permissible.
It should be noted that the tawat remains perfectly
valid without kissing the Black Stone. If one does not or
cannot kiss the Black Stone, it is sufficient simply to point
to it, saying "AI/ahu akbar" when one comes parallel to it,
although one may be at a distance from it.
5. Wiping one's hand over the Black Stone, seeking
"blessings" (barakah) thereby is an innovation (bid'a)
with no basis in the Shari'ah of Islam. The ~ is to
touch it or kiss it only when it can be done ec:.sily.
6. Touching the

1. When climbing upon Safa and Marwah, some pll.
grlms face the K'abah and gesticulate toward It with
their hand while saying "A/lahu akbar" as If they were
saying takbir for salat. This gesticulating is an error
because the Prophet (peace be on him) raised his palms
only for supplication. Here you may glorify and magnify
Allah the Most High, supplicating Him in any words you
wish while facing the direction of the K'abah. It is
preferable to recite the dhikr which the Prophet (peace be
on him) recited at Safa and Marwah.

Fourth: Errors Related to 'Aratat
1. Some pilgrims camp outside the boundaries of
'Aratat and remain there until the sun has set; then they
depart tor Muzdalifah without standing at 'Arafat
properly. This is a serIous error which invalidates their
hajj since standing in Aratat is the essence ot hajj, and It
is obligatory to be within its boundaries and not outside
them, it it is not easy to do that, they may enter before
sunset and remain there until sunset. It Is quite
acceptable to stand in Aratat during the night ot
sacrifice in particular.
2. Departing trom 'Aratat betore the sun has set is not
permissible, because the messenger of Allah (peace be
on him) stayed at 'Aratat until the sun had set comple-
tely.
3. Struggling through crowds In order to climb Mount
'Aratat is not permissible, because it causes much harm
and injury to others. The entire Plain ot 'Aratat is a place
of standing, and neither climbing Mount 'Aratat nor
making salah there has been recommended.

Fifth: Errors Related to Muzda/ifah
Some pilgrims start collecting pebbles to throw at the
Stone Pillars in Mina as soon as they arrive in Muzdalifah
prior to praying the Maghrib and 'Isha prayers. This is not
correct. Nor is the practice that all the pebbles must be
collected at Muzdalifah.
The correct position is that the pebbles can be collected
anywhere within the boundaries of al-Haram (the territory
or precints of Makkah). It is known that the Prophet (peace
be on him) did not ask that the pebbles for Jamratul-
Agabah be picked up for him from Muzdalifa. They were
picked up for him, in the morning. after leaving Muzdalifa
and on entering Mina. The rest of the pebbles were picked
up, for him. from Mina, Too.
Some

pebbles
has been merely

as a maans of
remembering
Allah the Most High.

Error Related to Throwing the Pebbles.
1. Some pilgrims are under the impression that when they
are throwing pebbles at the Stone Pillars, they are actually
throwing them at shayateen (devils); hence they hurl them
with rage and force. However, the throwing of the pebbles
has been merely prescribed as a means of remembering
Allah the Most High.
2. Some people throw big stones, shoes or pieces of
wood. This Is an excess in matters of religion which the
Prophet (peace be upon hIm) prohibited, what Is allowed
Is to throw pebbles the size of good beans.
3. Crowding and fighting with others at the Pillars
while throwing the pebbles Is not permissible. What Is
prescribed Is to be gentle and to throw the pebbles
without hurting anyone as much as posslble.
4. Throwing all the pebbles at one time Is an error.
Scholars have said that this would be counted as only
on throw. The St,q4"tt
prescrl bes throwl ng the

1. On the day of thei r departure, some
pi l gri ms go
to
Makkah to
perlorm their FarewellTawaf before throwing
the
pebbles at tho
Pillars. Then they return to Mina to throw
the
pebbles, and depart from Mina for their respective
countries.
Thus their final rite becomes that of throwing the
pebbl es at the
Pi l l ars and
not of the tawaf of
@.Thi s
i s
an error as the Prophet
(peace
be on hi m) sai d'
"No
one
shoul d depart wi thout hi s l ast vi si t bei ng to the House
g'abal}"
Accordingly, the Farewell Tayvat must take
place afler
one throw. The ~ prescribes throwing the pebbles
one by one, saying "Allshu skbsr" at each separate
throw.
5. Appointing a proxy to throw the pebbles, simply due
to fear of the crowds or of hardship, while one Is capable
of doing It himself. Only sick or weak Individuals are
permitted to have a proxy for this act.
Seventh: Errors Related to the Farewell Tawaf (Tawa'
BI-Wlda)
1. On the day of their departure, some pilgrims go to
Makkah to perform their Farewell Tawaf before throwing the
pebbles at the Pillars. Then they return to Mina to throw
the pebbles, and depart from Mina for their respective
countries. Thus their final rite becomes that of throwing the
pebbles at the Pillars and not of the tawaf of K'abah. This is
an error as the Prophet (peace be on him) said. "No one
should depart without his last visit being to the House
(K'abah).'
Accordingly, the Farewell Tawaf must take place after
one has completed all the rites of haij
@nd
before starting
hi s
j ourney
for home). After thi s tawaf one shoul d not stay i n
Makkah except duri ng the ti me i t takes to
prepare
to depart.

que
one has completed all the rites of hajj (and before starting
his journey for home). After this tawat one should not stay in
Makkah except during the time it takes to prepare to depart.
2. After finishing the Farewell Tawa!, some people
walk backwards, facing the K'abah, as they exit from the
Sacred Mosque, under the impression that this is a
veneration of the K'abah. This act is an innovation (bid'a)
in the religion and is without any basis.
3. After finishing the Farewell Tawaf, some pilgrims
halt at the door of the Sacred Mosque to make supplica-
tions. This is also an innovation with no basis in the
Shari'ah of Islam.
Eighth: Errors Related to the vist of the Prophet's Mos-
que
1. Touching and wiping one's hands on the walls and
iron grilles, tying threads to the gratings, and other acts
of this sort while visiting the grave of the Prophet (may

Blessings come from following what Allah and His
Messenger (peace be on him) have prescribed. and not
from following innovations.
2. Going to the caves of Mount Uhud or to the caves of
Hira or Thaur near Makkah and hanging pieces of cloth
or making supplications there have not been prescribed
by Allah. All these are unnecessary hardships, innova-
tions in the religion, and are without any basis in the
Shari'ah.
3. Likewise, visiting certain sites under the impression
that these constitute "relics" of the Prophet (peace be
on him), as for example the place where his camel sat, the
Well of 'Uthman or the Well of the Ring, and gathering soil
from these places to obtain "blessings", are all innovations.
4. Calling upon the dead while visiting the graves at
the Baqi' Cemetery or the graves of the martyrs of Uhud,
and throwing coins in order to seek the blessings of the
pl ace
or of the
peopl e buri ed there, i s a gri evous error.
Indeed, i t i s shi rk
(ascri bi ng partners to Al l ah the Most

pointed
out by scholars,
l!
is clear lrom
the Book of Allah and the sunna!-of
His Messenger
(peace

We ask Al l ah, the Most Hi gh, to i mprove the condi ti on of

and to turn all of us away lrom errors and deviations.
Indeed, He i s the Heari ng, the Respondi ng.
place or of the people buried there, is a grievous error.
Indeed, it is shirk (ascribing partners to Allah the Most
High), as has been pointed out by scholars. I! ~ : , clear trom
the Book of Allah and the sunnah of His Messenger (peace
be on him) that all forms of worship are for Allah alone. It is
not permissible to call upon, or to offer sacrifice, give vow,
or any other form of ibadah (worship) except for Allah
alone. Allah the Most High, says:
"and they were commanded nothing except to
worship Allah (only), purifying the religion for Him
alone,"
and He also says,
"Verily, the places of worship are for Allah
(alone), so do not calion anyone else apart from
Allah."
We ask Allah, the Most High, to improve the condition of
the Muslims and to give them understanding of the religion,
and to turn all of us away from errors and deviations.
Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Responding.
