Since Hajj is coming and many people are doing preparation for Hajj, I feel it better to circulate "the short and easy method of Hajj" in Urdu and English.
Moreover my Hajj Book حج مبرور is attached herewith which also can be downloaded through the following link:
The Hajj Training Program (Power Point Presentation) in Urdu language with pictures and drawings is available on the home page of www.deeneislam.com .You can download it to read and get trained.
A Hajj Orientation Presentation is being organized for Hajj pilgrims on 18th October 2012. Those pilgrims, who wish to attend the program, are requested to send an email with numbers of participants to najeebqasmi@yahoo.com.
Error! Filename not specified. Local Hajjis (living in Saudi Arabia) should take care of the following while booking a seat for them from any agent:
1. Where you will get the Khaima خيمة in Mina or Muzdalfah?
There are seven categories of Khaima:
Mina | Muzdalfah |
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
أ-1 | أ-2 | ب | ج | د1 | د2 | هـ |
أ-1 is near Jamarat, while هـ is in Muzdalfah, as much you will be away from Jamarat you will have to pay less.
Note: Staying at Mina in Ayyame Tashreeq أيام التشريق is سنة in the opinion of Imam Abu Hanifa in the light of Ahadeeth, while other Ulamas say that it is واجب but nowadays all the Ulamas say that if a Haji stays in any khaima located in Muzdalfah, Damدم is not necessary for him as Imam Abu Hanifa has said.
2. Transportation (By bus or train) between Mina, Arafat, Muzdalfah and Makkah is provided by the agent (حملة) or not.
3. The date and time of departure from your city and from Makkah.
4. Hajj with Tasreeh includes 3 foods daily (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner) since 8 Zilhijjah to 13 Zilhijjah.
Get benefit from this and kindly forward it to such persons who are going to Hajj so that they also can get benefit of this. May Allah reward us for this.
