Whilst in Makkah after performing Umrah, if one goes to Jeddah for some work, does one have to don Ihram on returning to Makkah?
There is no need for Ihraam when returning to Makkah from Jeddah.
A person performed 39 Salaat with jamaat in Musjidun Nabawi.
Performing the 40 Salaat in Musjidun Nabawi has absolutely no relationship with Hajj. Whilst it is meritorious to perform 40 Salaat in Musjidun Nabawi, it is not compulsory nor is…
A lady is presently performing Hajj. Whilst returning from Arafaat to Muzdalifah, she began men- struating.
The lady has to perform all the remaining rites of Hajj even in her state of menses. However, she may not perform Tawaaf Ziyaarat or any other Tawaaf in the state of haidh.…
I forgot to perform the two raka'ts Salaat after Tawaaf.
It is Waajib to perform the two raka'ts after Tawaaf. This Wujoob (compulsion) remains for lifetime. If one is still in Makkah, then one should perform the two raka'ts in the…
What should a woman do if her husband dies during Hajj?
If the woman's husband dies during Hajj, then she should complete her Hajj, and return immediately thereafter to spend the balance of her iddat in the marital home.
Is it permissible for a person who performed Ifraad Hajj or Tamattu' to perform Nafl Umrah?
A person who has performed Hajj Ifraad may perform Nafl Umrah after the 13th Zil Hajj. The Mutamatti' may also perform Nafl Umrah whilst waiting to don Ihraam for Hajj.
In the Musjid in Arafaat, the front section is said not to be part of Arafaat.
When performing Zuhr and Asr in the Musjid on the Day of Arafaat, do not stand in the section which is beyond the confines of Arafaat. One of the essential conditions for the…
At the Ka'bah I have seen people turning around whilst performing Tawaaf to take photos.
These people are not concerned about the status of Tawaaf because they do not go the Makkah for Umrah or Hajj. They are on a tour at what they deem to be some holiday resort. In…
What should one do if wudhu breaks during Tawaaf of the Ka'bah?
If wudhu breaks during the first three Shauts or before completing the fourth Shaut, then the Tawaaf has to be repeated. If Wudhu breaks after completing the fourth Shaut, then the…
I shall be going for Hajj soon. What if my haidh period commences at the time I have to make Tawaaf Ziyaarat and we are booked to depart before I beco
Tawaaf-e-Ziyaarat is Fardh. As long as this Tawaaf has not been performed, you will remain in the state of Ihraam, and be forbidden for your husband until the Tawaaf has been…
Is it permissible to have a shower in the state of Ihraam?
It is permissible to have a shower whilst in the state of Ihraam. Changing the clothing does not nullify Ihraam.
What should one do if one's Wudhu breaks whilst making Tawaaf?
If Wudhu breaks in any of the first three shauts (circuits), it is Mustahab, to do the Tawaaf afresh – from the first Shaut. It is, however, permissible to continue it from the…
Is it permissible to make Nafl Tawaaf and Umrah after Tawaaf Wida?
After Tawaaf Wida it is permissible to do Nafl Tawaaf and Umrah.
The intermingling of men and women during Tawaaf of the Ka'bah is appalling.
In the prevailing circumstances females should not engage in Nafl Tawaaf. However, men should continue making Tawaaf, but as far as possible endeavour to avoid clashing with the…
I recently received a sms on my cell phone from a travel agent in Durban who was advertising Umrah airfares for R5,490 on Saudi Airlines.
The agent is not doing anything to sort out the problem because he is a satanic crook as are most of these Hajj and Umrah travel agents. This agent is operating a despicable scam…
Due to excessive dust which made me extremely sick, a person wore a surgical mask on my face during Ihraam.
If the person was really becoming sick, then although he had a valid reason for wearing the surgical mask in the state of Ihraam, he will still have to pay the kaffaarah penalty of…
Alhamdulillah, the Hajj was quite easy and I hope our Hajj has been accepted.
Brother, we did object to the Saudi authorities in this regard. We had written letters to various governmental departments of Saudi Arabia, even to the king. Although we were…
Hajj is Fardh on a man, but he wants to go for Tabligh and postpone Hajj for the future.
If the man despite Hajj being Fardh on him abstains from Hajj and rather goes on a holiday whether it be for 'tabligh', then perhaps at heart he is a Yahudi or a Nasara. He is a…
A man went for Umrah. He made the Umrah's Tawaaf.
His Umrah is valid. The Fardh of Sa-ee (4 shauts) has been fulfilled. On his return he had to perform the three remaining shauts, then the Sadqah penalty falls away. If he did not…
