1 بسم هللا الرحمن الرحيم Class #3 Introduction We will now look at actions of the heart from the Quran. We will at Surah Al Baqarah and Surah Al Hajj. The lecture begins with the right column Hajj of the Heart. Hajj of the Body ( البدن (حج Manasik (المناسك) (Rituals) of Hajj We have to take the rituals of hajj from the ر أ ي ت ر سول للا ه صلى للا عليه ( Hadith:.(ﷺ) Prophet وسلم ي ر همي ال ج م ر ة و هو ع ل ى ب هعي ه ر هه و هو ي ق ول " ي ا أ ي ه ا الن اس (Abu Az-Zubair narrated that he heard ) خذوا م ن ا هسك كم Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) say: "I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stone the Jamrat while on his camel saying: "O people, learn your rituals (of Hajj)) - Sunan an-nasa'i Ihram :(اإلحرام) is a state and not just a matter clothes. A person can take a bath during ihram and can remove his clothes. A person enters ihram at the meeqat. When reaching the meeqat a person should pronounce the intention verbally, لبيك اللهم عمرة و ( umrah and this is only for hajj and For other worships, the intention is not.(حج pronounced verbally, but only in the heart. For the woman, there is no stated color that must be worn. There should be no revealing clothing. No gloves or niqab is worn. However, a veil is placed over the face if you cover your face. A person can wash and shower, but should use fragrance-free products. Hair shouldn t be cut in that period of time. 2. Talbiyah :(التلبية) to say the talibiyah: ل ب ي ك الل هم ل ب ي ك ل ب ي ك ل ش ه ريك ل ك ل ب ي ك إهن ال ح م د و الن ع م ة ل ك ) و ال مل ك ل ش ه ريك ل ك I am at Your service, O Allah, I am at Your service. You have no partner. I am at Your service. Verily, praise and blessing belong to You, and the Kingdom. You have no partner." (حج القلب ( Heart Hajj of the و أ تهم وا ( 196: Surah Al Baqarah :(اإلخالص) 1. Ikhlas (And perform properly (i.e. all the ) ٱل ح ج و ٱل عم ر ة هل ل ه ceremonies according to the ways of Prophet Muhammad,(ﷺ the Hajj and 'Umrah (i.e. the pilgrimage to Makkah) for Allâh.) if you start the hajj then you need to complete it, unless a situation happens that causes you to terminate it. What makes you to complete the hajj? Ikhlas, being sincere. Don t go to hajj because everyone else is going, or because it s become a habit for some; don t make your intention low for hajj. Some people go to hajj but their intention is not clear. A person should be careful to not allow riya a and showing-off to enter. Don t take selfies showing I m here in Arafah, I m in here in tawaf. The talbiyah reminds you of ikhlas, doing tawaf reminds you of ikhlas because you don t do tawaf for anyone except for Allah.(جل جلاله) You will not go around your husband, children or business, but only around Allah s pleasure. The meaning of tawaf is what s central in your life, and this should be Allah.(جل جلاله) Sa ee shows ikhlas, you re at the service of Allah (جل جلاله) going right and left for Him. Don t struggle and hasten for anyone except Allah It s.(جل جلاله) You go to Mina and Arafah for Allah.(جل جلاله) teaching you to make dua only to Allah.(جل جلاله) To exit ihram is to cut your hair while there s no pain, and all of this is for Allah.(جل جلاله) Everything in hajj from the beginning to end is for tawheed. و ٱت ق وا ٱل ل ( 196: Surah Al Baqarah :(التقوى) 2. Taqwa (And fear Allah much and ) و ٱع ل مو ا أ ن ٱل ل ش هديد ٱل هعق ا هب know that Allah is severe in punishment.) taqwa is an action of the heart. Taqwa means stopping (جل جلاله) and asking yourself is this something Allah will be pleased with or angry?. Don t follow your desires in hajj. Taqwa is similar to self-talk before Page 1

2 Labayk, Allahumma labayk, la sharika laka labayk. Inna'l-hamda wa'n-nimata laka wa'l-mulk, la sharika lak This means I came to You O Allah with all my heart, with love, sincerity, submission, and attachment. All the conditions of ( لا للا (ل اله are (ل اله لا للا ( of found in the talbiyah. The conditions are: (العلم) - Knowledge (اليقين) - Yaqeen, certainty (القبول) - Acceptance (اإلنقياد) - Submission (الصدق) - Truthfulness (اإلخالص) - Ikhlas / sincerity (المحبة) - Love In this talbiyah, you have: إهن ال ح م د و الن ع م ة ل ك ( knowledge: - Tawheed of (Verily, praise and ) و ال مل ك ل ش ه ريك ل ك blessing belong to You, and the Kingdom. You have no partner) - Tawheed of actions: (ل ب ي ك ) (I am at Your (جل جلاله) service), you will do whatever Allah tells you, to do tawaf 7 times, to thrown 7 stones.. and you will do it without questions asked. Tabiyah is said from the time of entering meeqat until you see Bait Allah. jumping into anything. Taqwa requires knowledge because how will you know what to do and what not to. The beginning to the end of hajj is about taqwa. Allah (جل جلاله) says no arguing in hajj. When you re in a state of ihram, then you need to abstain from certain actions. How can you be cautious in tawaf? If someone pushes you then control yourself. Don t judge others or think badly of them. Taqwa is in the heart, and it s important to close the mouth. The one who has taqwa doesn t say what he feels. In Muzdalifah, you have taqwa by only sleeping, not praying the whole night. What makes someone to have taqwa in hajj? When you know Allah (جل جلاله) is severe in punishment. ) و ت ز و دوا ف إهن خ ي ر ٱلز ا هد ٱلت ق و ى ( :197 Surah Al Baqarah (And take a provision (with you) for the journey, but the best provision is At-Taqwa) you need to pack things going to hajj, and the best thing to pack is taqwa. Taqwa is in the heart, but where can you get the taqwa? Since Ramadan, so you may have taqwa. Faith is required going into Ramadan and with the worships, the taqwa builds up all in preparation for hajj. Surah Al Baqarah 197: ( و ٱت قو هن ي أ و لهى ٱ ل ل ب هب ) (So fear Me, O men of understanding) who s doing taqwa? The people of understanding. Who are they exactly? Surah Al Imran : هق ٱلس م و ٲ هت و ٱ ل ر هض و ٱختهل هف ٱل ي هل و ٱلن ہ ا هر ل ي ت ل و لهى إهن فهى خ ل ٱ ل ل ب هب ) ٠٩١ ( ٱل هذين ي ذ كرون ٱل ل قهي ما و قعودا و ع ل ى جنوبه ههم هق ٱلس م و ٲ هت و ٱ ل ر هض ر ب ن ا م ا خ ل ق ت ه ذ ا ب هطال و ي ت ف ڪ رون فهى خ ل سب ح ن ك ف قهن ا ع ذ اب ٱلن ا هر ) ٠٩٠ ( Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding. (190) Those who remember Allâh (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): "Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted are You above all that they associate with You as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire. (191) They remember Allah (جل جلاله) at all times, and they reflect in the creation of the heavens and the earth. When they eat, they reflect, how will the food of paradise be like?. We ask Allah (جل جلاله) of His Page 2

Ameen. و ٱت ق وا ٱل ل و ٱع ل مو ا أ ن ڪم إهل ي هه ( :203 Surah Al Baqarah (if his aim is to do good and obey Allâh (تح ش رون (fear Him), and know that you will surely be gathered unto Him) You need to have taqwa because hajj reminds you of the Day of Judgment. :(ذكر هللا ( (جل جلاله) 3. Remembrance of Allah remembering Allah (جل جلاله) is an action of the heart before the tongue. Allah (جل جلاله) wants feelings from us. Remember His names, attributes and actions: Allah (جل جلاله) is dealing with you with all of His names, and when you witness His names around you then this is remembrance. When you remember Allah (جل جلاله) then He will guide you to the best, but the one who forgets Allah (جل جلاله) then he will forget himself, meaning he will not benefit himself. The more you remember Allah,(جل جلاله) the more He will guide you. When you remember Allah,(جل جلاله) He remembers you. He will open good deeds for you in order to guide you and He will remind you of yours sin so you can seek forgiveness, subhan Allah. Remember His blessings upon you: alhamdulilah you have accommodation, alhamdulilah you have,(جل جلاله) health, etc. When you fully remember Allah then everything else will go. But if you remember Allah (جل جلاله) together with something else, then He leaves because He is the Most Rich of being associated with anyone. عند ( Mash'ar-il-Harâm at (جل جلاله) Remember Allah (المشعر الحرام ) ف ٱذ ڪروا ٱل ل هعند ٱل م شع هر ٱل ح ر ا هم ( 198: Surah Al Baqarah (remember Allâh (by glorifying His Praises, i.e. prayers and invocations,) at the Mash'ar-il-Harâm) You need to always remember Allah,(جل جلاله) but you should especially remember Him much after Arafah when you go to Muzdalifah. When Allah emphasizes something then it means we re (جل جلاله) mostly heedless in that position, subhan Allah. Many people are going to hajj, but very few are going with the heart. :(كما هداكم) how guided you (جل جلاله) Remember Allah Surah Al Baqarah 198: ( و ٱذ ڪروه ك م ا ه د ٮڪم ) (And remember Him (by invoking Allâh for all good) as Page 3

4 بسم هللا الرحمن الرحيم He has guided you) we were all ignorant and lost and it s only Allah (جل جلاله) Who guided us and we need to remember this. When you remember Allah (جل جلاله) then this will lead to gratitude. Remember Allah (جل جلاله) when you complete your :(قضيتم مناسككم) manasik ف إهذ ا ق ض ي تم م ن هسك ڪم ف ٱذ ڪروا ٱل ل ( 200: Surah Al Baqarah ه ركم ء اب ا ء ڪم أ و أ ش د هذڪ ر ا (So when you have (ك هذك accomplished your Manasik remember Allâh as you remember your forefathers or with a far more remembrance.) When you complete tawaf al ifhadha and so forth then you need to remember Allah,(جل جلاله) much more than you remember your parents. This means we should be remembering our parents the most, but we re remembering our children or husband more, subhan Allah. Allah (جل جلاله) created us to worship Him and real enjoyment is when our.(جل جلاله) heart is present and remembering Allah Sometimes when we complete a task, we forget who to appreciate. Allah (جل جلاله) is reminding us that He commanded us to go to hajj and He guided us to complete it so we shouldn t forget Him. The opposite of remembrance is being heedless. Remember Allah (جل جلاله) in appointed days (Days of :(في أيام التشريق) Tashreeq) ) و ٱذ كروا ٱل ل فهى أ ي ام م ع دود ٲت ( 203: Surah Al Baqarah (And remember Allâh during the appointed Days) Don t forget Allah (جل جلاله) on the 11 th, 12 th, 13 th. This is similar as we approach the end of Ramadan, people start to take it lightly, but the one who pushes himself then this is when it s most rewarding. Tawaf :(الطواف) When doing umrah, a person does tawaf first and it s ok to do tawaf upstairs. A person needs to be in a state of wudhu while in tawaf. A person shouldn t think bad about others because those with knowledge are a test for those without knowledge. Don t take selfies, snapchat, instagram while in the House of Allah.(جل جلاله) This shows misbehavior and it can be boasting. What is the intention for doing this? If you see other s doing it, don t make a fuss, but make dua, say may :(الشكر ( Gratitude 4. When you remember Allah (جل جلاله) then you will be grateful. ش ع ٮ ه ٱل بد ن ج ع لن ه ا ل كم م ن هر ٱل ل ه ل كم فهيہ ا ( :36 Surah Al Hajj و خ ي ر ف ٱذ كروا ٱس م ٱل ل ه ع ل ي ہ ا ص و ا ف ف إهذ ا و ج ب ت جنوبہ ا ف كل وا همن ہ ا (And ) و أ ط هعموا ٱلق انهع و ٱل مع ت ر ك ذ ٲلهك س خ ر ن ه ا ل كم ل ع ل كم ت ش كرون the Budn (cows, oxen, or camels driven to be offered as sacrifices by the pilgrims at the sanctuary of Makkah.) We have made them for you as among the Symbols of Allâh, Wherein you have much good. So mention the Name of Allâh over them when they are drawn up in lines (for Page 4

5 Allah forgive them. When doing tawaf a person can make dua or recite Quran and when reaching the Yamani Corner until ر ب ن ا ( said: the Black Stone, the following is ء اتهن ا فهى ٱلد ني ا ح س ن ة و فهى ٱ ل هخر هة ح س ن ة و قهن ا ع ذ اب ("Our Lord! Give us in this world that (ٱلن ا هر which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!") Sa ee :(السعي) before going to Sa ee, if there s space then you can pray two units behind Maqam Ibrahim, while reciting Surah Al Kafiroon in the first unit and Surah Al Ikhlas in the second unit. If you can t find a place then don t make it difficult on yourself. Also avoid any arguments while there because you are in the Sacred House of Allah. Prayer in the Masjid Al Haram is equivalent to 100,000. Also to drink Zamzam water until full. Zamzam water is blessed and it is like food. It s not required to drink Zamzam while standing. While going to Safa and Marwah, this ayah is recited and not at Safa itself: Surah إهن ٱلص ف ا و ش ع ا ٮ ه ٱل م ر و ة همن هر ٱل ل ه ( :158 Al Baqarah هو ٱع ت م ر ف ال جن اح ع ل ي هه أ ن ي ط و ف به ههم ا ف م ن ح ج ٱل ب ي ت أ As- (Verily! ) و م ن ت ط و ع خ ي را ف إهن ٱل ل ش ا هكر ع لهيم Safâ and Al-Marwah (two mountains in Makkah) are of the Symbols of Allâh. So it is not a sin on him who performs Hajj or 'Umrah (pilgrimage) of the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) to perform the going (Tawâf) between them (As-Safâ and Al- Marwah). And whoever does good voluntarily, then verily, Allâh is All- Recogniser, All-Knower). This is recited only one time. When you reach Safa, you face the qiblah and it s ok if you can t see the Ka aba then you raise your hand and make the ل اله لا للا وحده ل شريك له له ( dua: following sacrifice). Then, when they are down on their sides (after slaughter), eat thereof, and feed the poor who does not ask (men), and the beggar who asks (men). Thus have We made them subject to you that you may be grateful) When Allah (جل جلاله) gives you money to buy a sacrifice and He subjects the sacrifice so you can slaughter it, then should make you grateful. If Allah (جل جلاله) didn t subject the animals then we wouldn t be able to slaughter them. Which is strong, a cow or human? Surely the cow, so it s only Allah s favor upon us to subject great animals such as a cow and camel to be sacrificed. ): المنافع شهود ( benefits 5. Witness the Surah Al Hajj 28: ه دوا م ن فهع ل هم ) (ل ي ش (That they may witness things that are of benefit to them) for example if you see someone blind then you will ask Allah (جل جلاله) to not be resurrected blind and to not be blind from the truth.

You don t need to be in a state of wudhu while doing sa ee, but for tawaf it s required. Then you walk to Marwah and you can make dua in between. And this is repeated for seven circuits. Coming out of ihram :(التحلل) a fingertip length of hair needs to be cut in order to exit ihram. You can cut your own hair and you can do it at the hotel. You don t need to cut your hair in the harem. :(أعمال الحج) Actions of the Hajj (االستغفار) 6. Seek forgiveness ثم أ فهيضوا همن ح ي ث أ ف اض ٱلن اس ( 199: Surah Al Baqarh (Then depart from the ) و ٱس ت غ فهروا ٱل ل إهن ٱل ل غ ف ور ر هحيم place whence all the people depart and ask Allâh for His Forgiveness. Truly, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most-Merciful) We think istighfar is only for sins, but we need to make istighfar after the worships to make up for the shortcomings in our worships. Allah (جل جلاله) is commanding to seek forgiveness in hajj, after already being a new born. Even if you have 0 sins, you need to seek forgiveness, so what about (جل جلاله) us? Subhan Allah. You feel broken to Allah when you seek forgiveness. Truly we didn t worship Allah (جل جلاله) as He deserves to be worshipped. We shouldn t feel proud because we completed hajj. The more you make istighfar the more your vision will be clear, subhan Allah. :(التعظيم) (جل جلاله) 7. Magnifying Allah Page 6

7 :(يوم التروية) 1. 8 th of Dhul Hijjah Day of Tarwiyah the meaning of (التروية) is to give water to the animals because before they would take their sacrifice with them. When starting the hajj, you enter ihram from your place of residence. You don t need to go to the meeqat to enter ihram. Then you go to Mina whether it s before or after noon. In the meantime, you need to increase in saying the talbiyah. And talbiyah is said until you throw stones on the 10 th of Dhul Hijjah. Hajj and the rituals of hajj are to.(جل جلاله) remember and exalt Allah When reaching Mina, you pray 2 units of Dhuhr at its time, 2 units of Asr at its time, 3 units of Maghrib at its time, and 2 units of Isha at its time. So at Mina you shorten the prayers, but not combine. You pray 2 units of Fajr and the sunnah of Fajr. The Sunnah Fajr is better than the whole world and all it contains, subhan Allah. Other rawatib prayers are not prayed th of Dhul Hijjah - Day of Arafah عرفة) :(يوم the hajj is Arafah and there are people who go straight to Arafah and not Mina and this is permissible. From Mina you head to Arafah after fajr. Remember to worship Allah (جل جلاله) by His names, you feel tight and crowded ask Allah Al Wasi to make space for you. When you re sick, ask Allah Ash Shafiee to cure you. When you re lost, ask Allah Al Hadee to guide you. Or to make this dua as well which includes Allah s greatest name and ask Allah (جل جلاله) what you want. ع ن أ ن هس ب هن م الهك ق ال كن ت م ع ر سو هل للا ه صلى للا ( عليه وسلم ج الهسا - ي ع نهي - و ر جل ق ائهم يص ل ي ف ل م ا ر ك ع و س ج د و ت ش ه د د ع ا ف ق ال فهي دع ائه هه الل هم إهن ي أ س أ ل ك بهأ ن ل ك ال ح م د ل إهل ه إهل أ ن ت ال م ن ان ب هديع الس م و ا هت و ا ل ر هض ي ا ذ ا ال ج ال هل و اإل ه ك ر ا هم ي ا ح ى ي ا ق ي وم إهن ي أ س أ ل ك. ف ق ال الن بهي صلى للا عليه وسلم ل ص ح ابه هه " ت د رون بهم ا د ع ا ". ق ال وا للا و ر سول ه أ ع ل م. ق ال " و ال هذي ن ف هسي بهي هد هه ل ق د د ع ا للا بهاس هم هه ال ع هظي هم ال هذي إهذ ا دهعي به هه أ ج اب و إهذ ا سئهل (It was narrated that Anas bin (.به هه أ ع ط ى " Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I was sitting with the Messenger of ذ ٲلهك و م ن يع ظ م حرم هت ٱل ل ه ف هو خ ي ر ل ه ۥ ( :30 Surah Al Hajj (That (Manâsik prescribed duties of Hajj is ) هعند ر ب ههۦ the obligation that mankind owes to Allâh), and whoever honours the sacred things of Allâh, then that is better for him with his Lord.) ذ ٲلهك و م ن يع ظ م ش ع ٮهر ٱل ل ه ف إهن ه ا همن ت ق و ى ( :32 Surah Al Hajj (And that is whosoever honours the (ٱلقلو هب Symbols of Allâh, then it is truly from the piety of the hearts) Why do we say Allaku Akbar? Allah (جل جلاله) is greater than anything. When we go up the elevator or plane, we say Allahu Akbar, when we throw stones at jamarat, we say Allahu Akbar, when we pray we say Allahu Akbar because He s greater than anything in our life. You magnify the symbols of Allah (جل جلاله) such as the tawaf, sa ee, hijab, Quran, prayer. The opposite of magnification is no respect. :(االحسان) 8. Ihsan If you fulfill all of the previous actions then this is ihsan. Ihsan is to worship Allah (جل جلاله) as if you see Him and if you can t see Him, He sees you. Imagine if you a house, its outer represents the pillars of Islam, and its foundation is the pillars of faith, but do you want a house with no furniture? Ihsan is to beautify your house. Ihsan is what beautifies us. May Allah (جل جلاله) make us from the muhsineen. Ameen. Page 7

8 Allah (ﷺ) and a man was standing and praying. When he bowed, prostrated and recited the tashahhud, he supplicated, and in his supplication he said: "Allahumma inni as'aluka bi-anna lakalhamd, lailaha illa ant, al-mannanu badi'ussamawati wal-ard, ya dhal-jalali walikram! Ya hayyu ya qayyum! Inni as'aluka. (O Allah, indeed I ask You since all praise is due to You, there is none worthy of worship but You, the Bestower, the Creator of the heavens and earth, O Possessor of majesty and honor, O Everliving, O-Eternal, I ask of You.)' The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'Do you know what he has supplicated with?' They said: "Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ) know best." He said: 'By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, he called upon Allah by His greatest Name, which, if He is called by it, He responds, and if He is asked by it, He gives.'") - Sunan an-nasa'i 1300 A person doesn t need to be on the mountain for Arafah. Making things difficult is not a sign of piety or that the hajj will be accepted when it s hard. It s a blessing if you have a/c, a place to stay, so it s important to be grateful. A person has everything and wants things difficult, subhan Allah. A person needs to increase in making dua and not get distracted with the phone. Hajj is teaching you to always remember Allah (جل جلاله) even if there are different variables around you. Dhuhr and Asr are shortened and combined which is prayed during dhuhr time, so it s (2+2). Never think hajj will take you to paradise, but it s Allah s mercy that will take you to paradise. There s no fasting on the Day of Arafah for the one doing hajj. Fasting is for the people not doing hajj. It s important to focus on istighfar because this will open things. The shaitan is most disgraced on the Day of Arafah because in a matter of a few Page 8

9 hours, Allah (جل جلاله) will forgive the sins of the pilgrims and they will be newborns. ق ال ق ال ت ع ائهش ة إهن ر سول للا ه صلى للا ( Hadith: عليه وسلم ق ال " م ا همن ي و م أ ك ث ر همن أ ن يع تهق للا فهي هه (There is no day ) ع ب دا همن الن ا هر همن ي و هم ع ر ف ة when Allah sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of 'Arafah.) - Sahih Muslim 1348 Imagine having billions of debt around your neck and jail is the place to go, but Allah (جل جلاله) pardons it all and forgives you, subhan Allah. Allah (جل جلاله) will come down to the lowest heaven in a manner that suits His majesty. He will come down during the day. And even when Allah (جل جلاله) comes down there is no one above Him. He will boast and talk about the people in front of the angels. He will tell them look at My slaves, they came to me ungroomed, dusty, and from different lands, and I bear witness that I have forgiven their sins, subhan Allah. A person needs to feel this greatness. A person should take the means but depend only on Allah.(جل جلاله) Avoid heavy foods that will make you fall asleep, but don t depend on yourself. A person doesn t want to miss this great day falling asleep. Hajj is a reminder of the Day of Judgment. Best dua to make on Day of Arafah: ع ن ع م ه رو ب هن شع ي ب ع ن أ بهي هه ع ن ج د هه أ ن ( Hadith: الن بهي صلى للا عليه وسلم ق ال " خ ي ر الد ع ا هء دع اء ي و هم ع ر ف ة و خ ي ر م ا ق ل ت أ ن ا و الن بهي ون همن ق ب لهي الا إ لا اه إ الا ا هللاه اوح ادهه الا اشر ي اك لا هه لا هه ال همل هك اولا هه ال احم هد او هه او اعلاى هكل (Amr bin Shu aib narrated from ) اشي ء اقد ير " his father, from his grandfather, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: The best of supplication is the supplication of the Day of Arafah and the best of what I and the Prophet before me have said is: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him belongs the Praise, and He is powerful over all things. (La Ilaha Illallah, Wahdahu La Sharika Lahu, Lahul-Mulku Wa Lahul-Hamdu, Wa Huwa Page 9

10 Ala Kulli Shai in Qadir). ) - Jami` at- Tirmidhi 3585 Remember to make dua for yourself. After maghrib everyone has to leave and it will be like a flood of people, truly you feel it s like the Day of Judgment. After finishing Arafah, you need to believe Allah (جل جلاله) accepted your dua and hajj. Don t think bad of Allah,(جل جلاله) you know you didn t do well, but Allah (جل جلاله) gives the best. 3. Night of 10 th of Dhul Hijjah - Spending the :(المبيت في مزدلفة) night in Muzdalifah After leaving Arafah you head to Muzdalifah and pray maghrib and isha (3+2) shortened and combined there. After a great day in Arafah, in Muzdalifah the worship is to sleep after isha. You don t take stones from Muzdalifah itself. Fajr is prayed in Muzdalifah and then you go and head out to do different rituals. يوم ( Sacrifice th of Dhul of Hijjah - Day of :(النحر The greatest day of the duniya is the Day of Sacrifice, subhan Allah. All of the rituals done on this day are for remembering Allah.(جل جلاله) The rituals do not have to be done in a certain order. Tawaf Al Ifidha :(طواف اإلفاضة) this includes doing sa ee as well. The only Tawaf which doesn t include sa ee is the Farewell Tawaf. جمرات ) Throw stones at Jamarat Al Kubra this is in Mina, there are three :(الكبرى jamarat, but you only throw stones at the big one. You can throw the seven stones from anywhere around it. Make sure to choose small sized stones and not hurt the people. Sacrifice of the animal :(الهدى) you don t need to see it Cutting the hair :(الحلق) this is permissible after completing the Tawaf and Sa ee, and you exit ihram. Everything is permissible th, 12 th, 13 th of Dhul Hijjah - Days of Tashreeq you are in Mina and you have an :(أيام التشريق) Page 10

11 option to leave on the 12 th or 13 th. If you re leaving on the 12 th, then you need to leave before Maghrib. 11 th : you take 21 stones and you throw seven stones at each Jamara, there are three Jamarat. These stones are light on the Day of Judgment. After throwing 7 stones, then you can make dua, and then go on and throw 7 stones on the second jamarah, and make dua, then go to the 3 rd jamarah and throw 7 stones. When you throw each stone you say Allahu Akbar. 12 th : the same is repeated as on the 11 th. 13: the same is repeated as on the 11 th. 6. Farewell Tawaf الوداع) :(طواف there is on tawaf but no sa ee. May Allah (جل جلاله) accept everyone s hajj. Ameen. Page 11
