Umrah is an expiation for sins committed between it the previous ones and the reward for an accepted Hajj is none other than Paradise (Bukhari and Muslim)
Status
Umrah is sunnah
Performed at anytime during the year
Hajj is mandatory
Allah states, And for Allah upon men Hajj is mandatory if the means exist. (3:97) Prophet (saw) stated, Verily Allah has made hajj mandatory upon you, so make Hajj. (Hadrat Abu Saeed, Muslim) Performed during days of Hajj (8th of Dhul Hijjah to the 13th of Dhul Hijjah)
4
Conditions - Adulthood

7
Rulings
If conditions of hajj met, then fard once in a lifetime
Must be done immediately Sin to delay; uplifted once performed Leave instructions in will to have someone perform it (as a backup)
Preparing for the Journey
Saving Up
Make an effort to save up halal money If family not going then it is necessary to leave behind sufficient provision for them Dont be stingy, each penny spent is rewarded
10
Selecting a Group
Essential part of the Hajj
Group represents your team on the mission for forgiveness
Ensure group organizer is experienced and shares a similar outlook to yours Seek a scholar that will not cut corners
11
Closing the Circle

Seek forgiveness from those who have been wronged
Clear up conflicts with hikmah Repay debt
Makruh to go if debt is immediately due and permission is not taken
If individual passed away, make up in some other manner
Return any entrusted items

12
Closing the Circle

Repent to Allah
Make ghusl or wudu Pray two rakah with intention of forgiveness Reflect on past mistakes and make firm intention to never commit them again Make dua
13
Permission from Parents

If they need service then moving forward with plans is makruh If do not need service then permissible, but more barakah in asking
14
Preparing a Will
Appoint an executor Include the following
Debts, including acts of worship Entrusted items Wasiyah of up to 1/3 of wealth
15
Studying for Hajj

General principle is that we study in relation to the event Wajib to learn what is necessary to perform the Hajj Make an effort to read and study beforehand Attend seminars explaining the rites Map out a mental plan
16
Immunizations

20
The Day of Departure

22
An Amir
Appoint a leader to organize the group for this stage of the travel
Prophet (saw) said, When three people travel they must appoint one of them as their amir. Most groups arrange this beforehand, in which case it becomes imperative to follow the amir
Hadrat Abu Saeed 23 http://www.SANCTIFIEDTRUST.org Al-Khudri; Abu Dawud
Being a Traveller
48 miles from border of city equals travel Remain traveler unless make niyyah to stay in one place for 15 days
24
Being a Traveller
Fiqh Implications
Shorten Zuhr, Asr, and Isha from 4 to 2 rakahs
Exception = praying behind resident imam
Sunnahs downgraded
If actively moving then leave except fajr/maghrib If stationary then pray
Witr remains wajib
Spiritual implications: Duas accepted

25
Praying on the way

Must offer prayers
Many are not particular about this Going to perform 1 fard and miss five daily
26
Praying on the way

In plane use map channel to determine Qiblah Pray standing in small groups or individually, if possible. Otherwise, pray seated and make up after landing. Use the position of the sun in your location to determine prayer times.
27
Background
Prophet (SAW) performed multiple umrahs and one hajj Before this hajj also performed umrah So, sunnah to perform umrah before the hajj
28
Ihram
To perform umrah or hajj state of ihram is necessary Intention when placing ihram divides hajj into three types
29
Types of Hajj
Hajj Tamattu Hajj Qiran Hajj Ifrad
30
Ihram
Appendix A
31
Definition
State required to enter haram Certain acts become haram, hence ihram Spiritually, the state entered by someone who forsakes everything for Allah
32
Miqat - Boundaries
Must be entered before crossing particular boundaries Established by the hadith
33
Reaching Miqat
Wajib to enter state of ihram before crossing this border if intending to enter haram If ihram not entered then must return back to border and enter ihram
If not possible then must offer a damm
34
Miqat - Rulings
Jeddah is within miqat Must be in ihram prior to landing at Jeddah, if intend to directly head to Mecca
Enter ihram at stop over just before Jeddah Dont pack in check-in luggage
35
Miqat - Rulings
Ihram not necessary if going to medinah from jeddah
Although crossed miqat, no intention to go directly to mecca
Ihram not necessary if going directly to Medina as Medina is outside of the miqat
36
Preparation for Entering Ihram

Clip nails, remove armpit hair and pubic hair (mustahabb)
Done before leaving home

Qul ya ayyuhal kafirun in 1st rakah Qul hulllahu ahad in 2nd rakah Prayer not offered at makruh or haram times or by menstruating woman
Okay for males to cover head
40
Making the Intention

Remain seated facing Qiblah (mustahabb) Uncover head (males) Make niyyah for the ihram, including type of act intended (i.e., type of Hajj)
41
Intentions

24
Legal Ruling
Verbal better, but silent accepted Can be done in your own language If performing Hajj on behalf of someone else (Hajj badal) then should take that persons name
43
Spiritual Dimension
And complete Hajj and Umrah for Allah (2:196) Niyyah is core of all acts of worship
Must be checked, rechecked, and triple checked
44
Niyyah
Hajj is not to gain fame, vacation, historical tour, etc Prophet (saw) said, A time will come for the people when
rich will go to the pilgrimage as tourists for enjoyment and amusement, middle-class will go to engage in trade and business poor will go to beg and scholars will go to gain name and fame
Hadrat Anas; Kanz ul Ummal (v2, p26)
45
Talbiyah
Recite three times (once is wajib; three is sunnah)

46
Ruling
Men loudly (sunnah), women softly Cannot be absolutely silent
47
Talbiyah
Should be continuously recited throughout journey Use changes of state as a reminder
Not recited during tawaf or saie
Ends
with the beginning of tawaf in umrah with the first stoning in Hajj
48
Milestone of Talbiyyah
Legally (with niyyah) places a servant in a state of ihram Represents answer to Allahs call to perform Hajj Represents answer to Prophet Ibrahims (AS) call to Hajj
49
Talbiyah Ramifications
()
A muslim does not call the talbiyah except that from his right and from his left every stone, tree, and the ground also recites the same to the end of the earth Sahl ibn Sad; Tirmizi and Ibn Majah
50
Talbiyah
Reported that when Ali Zainul Abideen (ra) used to enter into ihram face would become pale, body would shake, and could not recite labbaik Asked why..stated, I fear greatly that in reply to my labbaik, a cry may come saying laa labbaik. Your presence here is not accepted. He would then utter labbaik and fall off his camel unconscious.
51
Ihram (Practical Points)

Enter into ihram at your layover or prior to leaving home. Locks you into performing the hajj/umrah Only other way to removed state is by sacrificing in Mecca Therefore, enter into ihram once you are certain that you have your seat.

Wuquf
Literally to stop or stand still Here will physically stand still; hopefully heart and spirit will follow
130
Wuquf - Preparation
Make talbiyah while traveling Take care of personal needs before zawal
Especially food and drink, use washroom, etc Goal is to free oneself to focus on Allah from Zuhr to sunset
Make wudu or ghusl right before zuhr
131
Wuquf - Ideal
Begin at Zawal at masjid Namrah
Imam takes pulpit Azan called Two khutbahs Iqamah and Zuhr Iqamah and asr No sunnahs for either prayer offered
Head toward jabal rahmah for wuquf

Bidah to climb it Black stones mark the location of the wuquf of Ps
132
Wuquf - Reality

135
Arafah
Fudhail bin Ayaad (rah) once said on the plain of Arafat, Should this huge assembly of people come begging for a cent at the door of the most generous person, do you ever forsee that he shall send them back disappointed? People responded, No we cannot see him refusing them. Fudail (rah) said, I swear by Allah that for Allah to forgive them all is much easier than for the generous person to grant them a cent.
136
To Muzdalifah
After sunset head toward Muzdalifa without praying maghrib Make dhikr and talbiyah while traveling
137
Prayers at Muzdalifah
At Muzdalifa wait for the time of isha to begin and then perform prayers in the following sequence
Call one azan and one iqamah Fard of Maghrib Fard of Isha (no additional iqmah) Sunnah of Maghrib Sunnah of Isha and witr
This is done even if praying alone If delayed by traffic and cannot reach muzdalifa by dawn then pray the above sequence where ever one is before dawn.
138

141
Wuquf of Muzdalifah
Time should be spent standing facing qiblah making dhikr and reciting talbiyah Wuquf is Wajib Occur between dawn and sunrise.

144
Jamarat
145
Jamarat
Historically 3 pillars mark areas where shaytan was pelted by Hazrat Ibrahim (AS)
Hazrat Ibrahim commanded to sacrifice son Ismail (AS), who agreed to be sacrificed They headed toward Mina and on the way shaytan appeared to dissuade Hazrat Ibrahim Each spot where the shaytan arose Hazrat Ibrahim casted 7 pebbles and shaytan sank into the earth Pillars mark these spots
146
Pelting of the 10th

Recite bismillahi allahu akbar with each throw

148
Pelting
After throwing first pebble talbiyah of Hajj officially ends Pebbles must land on the wall or within the area of the pillar surrounded by the wall Pebbles must be independent
Four of the seven must be done properly for Rami to count, otherwise dam If <7 then penalty, but not dam
Dua is not to be made after pelting the large shaytan
149
Rami (Points)
Any individual who can get to the jamarat safely must pelt for himself If cannot get to the jamarat (e.g. cant walk and no transport) or if extreme illness exists, may assign a proxy Crowding is not an excuse for proxy
150
151
Animal Sacrifice
After rami, sacrifice an animal Called dam shukr
wajib with hajj qiran and tamattu mustahabb for those performing ifrad
This sacrifice is distinct from qurbani of eid adha, which is wajib annually on

Animal Sacrifice
Selected animal must meet legal requirements (not an issue today)
Goat/sheep covers 1 person Cow/camel covers 7 people
Most virtue lies in slaughter by ones hand

If not possible then still mustahabb to watch. Mustahabb to divide into 1/3 for sadaqah, 1/3 friends, 1/3 self Mustahabb to eat from meat. Nowadays meat frozen and sent to countries in need.
153
Animal Sacrifice

Trimming requires removal of 1 inch of hair over at least of head.

Over entire head is mustahabb If less than 1 inch is present then head must be shaved. Women will divide hair into three part and trim 1 inch from each part
155
Qasr/Halaq
Hair is cut while facing the qiblah and should begin from right side If rites of hajj have been competed, individual can trim/shave his own head, or the heads of others Removal of hair frees a person from all restrictions of ihram except romance/marital relations
He may now change into regular clothing, cover head, apply scent, etc
156
Tawaf Ziyarah
Return to Mecca to perform tawaf (fard) Timing is from dawn on 10th to sunset of 12th
Delay past this results in dam Menstructing woman must delay, no dam
157
Tawaf Ziyarah
Can be preformed before, after, or in between rami, nahr, and halq/qasr. But sunnah is to perform it after halq (i.e. as the last act). If performed earlier will not change the state of ihram. Complete ihram will then be uplifted after rami, nahr, and halq/qasr.
158
Tawaf Ziyarah
Tawaf followed by saee Done as described previously in umrah lecture Include ramal and idtibaa (if still in ihram) Will be followed by saee

233
Ustuwaanah Mukhallaq
AKA Hannaanah (weeping) pillar Place of salah of Prophet (saw) Date palm used to grow here Prophet (saw) used to lean against it while delivering the khutabah When mimbar made, Prophet (saw) changed place
234
Tree began weeping so loud that whole masjid filled with sound and companions started weeping Prophet (saw) placed hand on it and crying stopped Ps then said, The tree cries because the dhikr of Allah was near it, and now that the mimbar has been built it has been deprived of this dhikr in its immediate vicinity. If I did not place my hand on it, it would have cried thus until the day of Qiymah
235
Afterward the tree dried up and was buried. In another hadith when Rasullah went to mimbar for 1st time, tree cried so loudly that it almost split open. Prophet (saw) descended from the mimbar and put his hand on the tree. The crying then subsided gradually just as a childs cry subsided when it is being consoled after crying severely.
236

They had been allies of Aws and he was a chief link
241
Ustuwaanah Tawbah
He went stern but when he got their weeping of women and children softened him When asked if they should submit he said yes, but pointed to his throat Immediately he felt as if he had betrayed Prophet (saw)
242
Ustuwaanah Tawbah
Could not move his feet Could not face others from Aws, who were awaiting good news and wanted to take him to the Prophet (saw) Left from back door and tied himself to a pillar of the masjid saying, I will not leave from this place until Allah forgives me for what I did and Prophet (saw) himself unties me.
243
Ustuwaanah Tawbah
