    Labbayk Allaahumma bi Hajj

    Here I am (O Allaah), at Your service, making Hajj.

    If one fears that he may be prevented from completing the legislated rites of Hajj

    he may stipulate a condition by saying,

    Allaahumma mahillee haythu habastanee

    If I am prevented by an obstacle then my place is where You prevent me.

    Then, if an obstacle strikes him he leaves the state of ihraam and no expiation is

    due from him.

    After throwing the pebbles and performing the sacrifice, shave/cut the hairto partially exit the state of ihraam. Sexual intercourse with your spouse is

    still prohibited. This is the first tahallul, i.e., returning to ones normal state.

    Start in line with the Black Stone. Point to it and say

    Allaahu Akbar, begin walking with Kabah to your left.

    Recite any duaa, Quraan, or adhkaar.

    Between Yemeni Corner and Black Stone say:

    Wat-takhidhoo mim-maqaami Ibraaheema musallaa

    And take you (people) the Maqaam (place) of

    Ibraaheem as a place of prayer. [Al-Baqarah 2:125]

    Then pray 2 rakah behind it reciting soorah Al-

    Kaafiroon in the first rakah and soorah Al-Ikhlaasin the second.

    After completing 7 circuits, approach the Maqam--Ibraaheem and say,

    You may drink zamzam water, then go to the Saee area. Point to the Black

    Stone as you leave, and say Allaahu Akbar before reaching Saee.

    17

    18/24

    Proceed to As-Safa and climb it if possible. Face the Kabah, raise hands in

    supplication, and say:

    Innas-Safaa wal-Marwata min sha`aairllaahi fa man hajjal-bayta aw-`itamara fa laa junaaha

    `alayhi an yat-tawwafa bi himaa wa man tatawwa`a khayran fa inna-llaaha shaakirun `aleem

    {Verily! as-Safaa and al-Marwah are of the Symbols of Allaah. So it is not a sin on him who

    performs Hajj or 'Umrah of the House to perform the Tawaaf between them. And whoeverdoes good voluntarily, then verily, Allaah is All-Recogniser, All-Knower.} [Al-Baqarah 2:158]

    Then still facing the Kabah on As-Safaa, say:

    Abdau bi maa badaallaahu bih I begin with what Allaah began.

    This is said only once - at the time you are starting Sa`ee.

    18

  • 8/8/2019 The Rites of Hajj

    19/24

    Then still facing the Kabah, say Allahu Akbar 3 times and say the duaa:

    Laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdah, laa shareeka lah. Lahul-mulk wa lahul-hamd, wa huwa 'ala kulli shayin

    qadeer. Laa illaha illallaahu wahdah, anjaza wadah, wa nasara abdah, wa hazamal-ahzaaba wahdah.

    There is no god worthy of worship except Allaah, the One without a partner. His is the dominion and His

    is the praise, and He has power over everything. There is no god worthy of worship except Allaah, alone.

    He fulfilled His promise, and supported His slave, and defeated the parties (of the unbelievers) alone.

    The Sunnah is to repeat this duaa three times, making other duaa after the first

    and second times. After the third time you proceed with walking to Al-Marwah.

    19

    On the way to Al-Marwah supplicating to Allaah.

    Men must run/jog between the two green

    markers each time they pass.

    Arriving at Al-Marwah completes one circuit.

    At Al-Marwah, do as you did on as-Safaa by

    repeating the supplications 3 times whilst

    facing the Kabah at the foot of Al-Marwah.

    Then start the journey back to As-Safaa, doing as you did before.

    After completing the seventh circuit and reaching Al-Marwah the Saee is

    complete. The total distance covered for all 7 trips is approx. 2 miles.

    It is better to be in a state of purification but it is not necessary for Saee.

    20

    This is done by shaving/cutting the hair. It is better for men to shave their

    head and for women to cut their hair the length of a fingertip.

    Partial exiting of ihraam occurs on the 10th after thesacrifice and stoning of the Jamarah al-Aqabah.

    All prohibitions lifted except that of sexual relations

    with spouse.

    Complete exiting of ihraam occurs after Tawaaf al-Ifaadahand, sa`ee.

    All prohibitions are lifted.

    21

    22/24

    Each day after Dhuhr, stone the three Jamaraat (the small, the medium, and

    the Jamarah al-Aqabah).

    The old, sick , pregnant, unable etc. may

    deputize someone to stone on their behalf.

    The deputy would throw on his own behalf

    and then on behalf of the other person(s).

    Staying in Mina the nights of the 11th and

    12th is an obligation.

    After stoning on the 12th one may leave

    before Maghrib, but staying the night of the

    13th is more perfect.

    22

  • 8/8/2019 The Rites of Hajj

    23/24

    Perform Tawaaf as it was done for

    Tawaaf al-Ifaadah.

    Pray the 2 rakaaat behind the Maqaam-

    Ibraaheem.

    Sa`ee is not required.

    This should be done at the very end of

    your stay in Makkah, before departure.

    23

    24/24

    So when you have accomplished

    your manaasik (i.e. the rites of Hajj)

    remember Allaah as you rememberyour forefathers or with a far more

    remembrance. [Al-Baqarah 2:200]
