Wh o 9clided '1"Ie to br in9 this p"u}ed to cO'1"Ipld ion,

In addition to extensive observations of pilgrims during seasons of .!:iajj, a pilot study was con
ducted, It shows that more than two-thirds of those who performed .!:iajj rituals for the first time
could not perform them correctly. The representative sample showed that among the main
reasons for making errors are the lack of correct knowledge, lack of well-desiqned books, and
unfamiliarity with places and ritual terms.
Thus, the once-in-c-lifetime worship is highly vulnerable, That is, the majority of pilgrims
ca nnot get it correctly the first time. This vital reason was adequate to motivate me to develop
a book that is designed mainly to help them perform this important obligation in a step-by-step
approach, That is why it is titled ".!:ia jj & 'Umrah fro m A to Z."
As an instructional designer, I had to study the problem carefully and make a needs assess
ment in order to come up with a form that may better help Muslims get their rituals correctly,
I had to go through an enormous number of books about .!:iajj and study them carefully,
The result is an illustrated manual-like book that includes charts, diagrams and photographs that
will systematically quide any Muslim to achieve the .!:iaj j without, God willing, making any error.
Another purpose of this book is to alleviate the tension, anxiety, and fear of some pilgrims who
have preconceived ideas about the difficulties that will face them in performing .!:iaj j, This book is
intended to make all steps easy and smooth, and to handle most of the errors before they occur,
thus alleviating this anxiety by warning the pilgrims of what may happen long before it does, All
a pilgrim needs is to read carefully and follow the steps very accurately a nd, by the grace of Allah,
he/she will perform a smooth, correct .!:iajj,
The methodology I followed in this book is to trace the Sunna h of Prophet Muhammad (peace
be upon him) as illustrated by the famous Hadith collected by Imam Muslim and others of
"The Farewell .!:iaji of the Prophet" (pbuh) . By doing that I have kept this book far from the
differences between the various schools of thought known as Madhahib.
I would also like to remind the reader that the book is designed to illustrate the .!:ia jj Tamattu ',
as it includes all the steps required in the other two types of .!:iajj - Qiran and lfrcd. ! have also
made a chart that illustrates the similarities and differences between the three types of .!:iajj and
have titled it "quick referen ce,"
The intended readers of this book include all English-speaking Muslims who are ready to
perform .!:iaj j regardless of age, education or gender. Thus the book is designed like a manual to
help brothers a nd sisters make the prescribed rituals correctly,
Finally, I would like to thank all those who supported me in writing, editing, and revising this
book, particularly those who kindly and patiently reviewed the Islamic contents many times and
those who provided me with pictures,
May Allah guide us all to the right path,

t-Jow to

tAse the

Book

I'

,rl,

r "

This booklet is designed primarily as a manual, a concept that may not be totally new to most
people in our Islamic world, Briefly, it presents the material or the contents in a very consequential
way to guarantee the fewest possible faults and errors.
Fortunately, when a person knows how to use this book/manual correctly and effectively, the
outcome will be absolutely positive, if Allah is willing,
FIRST,

look carefullyat the cover design to get acquainted with the steps and their sequences.
Read through the book to get an overall, comprehensive idea of its contents. Whenever
you find some new terms that you are not familiar with, consult the glossary at the end
of the book,
SECOND,

go to the quick-reference on the back cover where you will be able to see the similarities
and diffe rences among the three types of Hajj, Each type has a different color. Read this
page carefully before you decide which one you will select.
THIRD,

once you have made your selection, try to mark which steps are not applicable in
Hajj Tamattu', the main focus of this book. This will help you skip the steps when the
situation arises,
FOURTH,

follow each step accurately. Plan ahead by reading a couple of steps ahead of time,
This is significant because when you start performing the rituals you will not have time
to read thoroughly.
fIFTH,

always pay attention to the sequence of steps and the comments relating to them.
SIXTH,

the title "REMEMBER " on each page is to remind you of the important things that many
people often forget while they are performing the rituals, So pay close attention to them
and try to abide by them, as they are very important.
SEVENTH,

the "NEXT STEP " subtitle is of vital importance, as it prepares you ahead of time for what
you need before you actuallystart the following step.
EIGHTH,

the title " W A RN ING" is of vital significa nce, as it warns the pilgrims against:
(a) some of the more common errors,
(b) acts that nullify the Hajj.
(c) acts that require a sacrifice or compensation.
Be assured that the book is very easy to follow and that it will quide you to perform
your Hajj correctly if you abide by it.
REMEMBER:

Whenever in doubt, ask scholars before you act,

This will save you A LOT of difficulties.

Tips

/6;

MONEY:
Do not worry about exchanging money. You can do that very
easily anywhere in Saudi Arabia .

SMALL GROUPS:

Close observation shows that people who move in large groups

are subject to having either one or some of them lost, and/or
missing some rituals or performing them late that may require
them to compensate for that either by slaughtering an animal
or by fasting or something else.

GOOD COMPANY:
Be sure to choose good company during your whole journey,
because this helps you avoid arguments and helps you perform
your !:iajj correctly.

To AVOID GETrING LOST:

It is recommended to arrange in advance with your group
exactly where and when to meet and what to do in cases of
being late, and what to do if someone is lost. To help you, follow
these procedures:
a. Arrange to meet at a very clear place where there is a clear,
colored sign or landmark.
b. Allow a specific range of time for those who come late for
any reason, provided that this time does not affect the ritual
to follow.

c. Be sure that everybody in your group is clearly notified.

Practical Tips

. FOOD:
Do not carry food from your homeland; almost everything is
available there. Also, remember that your food may be taken
from you at the airports.
To develop good eating habits, observe the following
a. Always avoid eating big meals, (a) because this is not healthy,
and (b) this is not helpful for performing rituals.
b. The best foods to eat are fruits, and the best drinks are water
and juice. They are everywhere and inexpensive.
c. Always put the remains of food in a plastic bag, and be sure
to put it in a trash container.

MEDICATION:
Carry only indispensable medication that is essential for your
health. Other common medicines can be obtained from any
drugstore. You can get free first aid care in all ritual areas.

Beware of the high temperatures in all ritual areas. Avoid being

exposed to the sun for long periods of time. Always use umbrellas
and drink a lot of liquids.

SERV1CES FOR HANDICAPPED:

For the weak, the sick, the handicapped, and elderly people, there
are special services provided . Wheel chairs and on-shoulder-litters
can be rented for those who need them. Ask the authorities for
these services inside AI-Masjid Al-Haraarn. Sometimes you may find
them free, but usually they are not very expensive. Take advantage
of these services if you need them.

Consciousness
of Allah

The best thing to please Allah is to watch constantly

for Him and be conscious and fearful of Him in all
your actions and speech.

Correct I Aqidah

Every Muslim should understand that if his/her belief,

or 'Aqidah is not sound, the !:iajj or any other 'Ibadah
(worship) is not accepted. So always try to correct
your belief by asking scholars who will provide you
with proofs from the Qur'an and Sunnah.

Pure Intention

Almighty Allah does not accept what is not directed to

Him alone. Therefore, you should always be sincere
and have pure intention for !:iajj.

Correctness
of Rituals

Any ritual is not accepted unless it is made correctly,

exactly as Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did it.
"Whoever adds something new to our religion,
it is rejected."

Patience

The difficulty of rituals requires every pilgrim to be

patient and forgiving of others.

Repentance

Do your best to make !:iajj a repentance for all your

sins. This repentance requires you not to commit any
of these sins again.

Mercy

Do your best to help Muslims, avoid pushing or hurt

ing them in any of the !:iajj rituals, especially in Tawaf,
Sa'ee, and pebble throwing, which are crowded.

Cleanliness

Cleanliness is a true sign of faith. Therefore, you

should always keep your heart, body, food, drink,
and everything clean. Also ask others to keep ritual
and worship places as clean as possible.

Supplication (Du'n') is truly the esse nce of sincere

worship. It co nnects Muslims wi th their Creator and it
is a practical expression of their persisting need for
Almighty Allah.

m
-

Almighty Alluh asks people to be persistent in their

du'a' and never to lose hope in beseeching Him and
Him alone. Who else except Allah would respo nd to our
supplication and du'a'? He Himself said: "And if My
servants ask you about me-behold-I am near; I respond
to the call of them who calli whenever they call upon
Me." So let them also listen to Me and believe in Mel in
order that they may be guided to the right way." (2: 186).

In another ve rse Allah urges people to make du'u':

"Your Lord aid: If you beseach Me I will respond to
you." (40: 60)

However, for du'n' to be accepted and responded to,

a Muslim must be truthful, with true intention, clean and
pure heart, humble, legitimate in earning money, and
should avoid over-indulgence in worldly matters.

~
....

The best type of du'a' is one that is mentioned in the

Qur'an and the Su nnuh of Prophet Muhammed (peace
be upon him).
Here are some supplications, taken fro m the Holy
Qur'an and the Prophet' Sunnah (pbuh). These
supplications can be used whenever du'u' is permissible.
