Just because you've got the garments on doesn't put your dryer
on you can have the online now
it's having the cloth on, and then making an intention and then
saying like bake along or bake. That's when you get into Iran, the
State of Iran after which, you know, you're a guest of Allah and
you can't to do x y and Zed you know you can clip your nails or
your hair or you should be arguing and and so on and so forth.
So after you do the tour gods of prayer, then you intend Oh Allah I
am doing this camera or this hedge make it easy for me. You're still
not into a home yet. Then you say the bake Allah who made a baker
bagel or should he delicata bacon they'll handle and near Metallica.
When will clash Eddie Kolak. Now you're in Africa. Like I've said
Allahu Akbar. I'm in
Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam
ala Sayidina Muhammad Winder early he was Sufi H Marina Amara.
MashAllah we welcome to this Hajj seminar.
We have allocated about two hours for it
just for your information, but usually every year, the head
seminar we do is about six hours long.
Which goes into complete detail about everything. And then we
answer all the questions. So this is the first time I'm trying to do
it in two hours. So we ask Allah for success and ease. And Allah
subhanaw taala make it possible. The way we'll do it is that we'll
discuss the overall Hajj, we discuss how to do Omura then
discuss how to do hedge. And then after that, we'll take questions
in sha Allah, I don't think I need to speak about the importance of
hedge because clearly, you're going for hedge anyway, having
understood its importance or its obligation. So that's already a
done deal. So I don't need to talk about its obligation. That's why
today we're going to focus on the procedure, we may not be able to
speak about how to make a more wholesome hedge in terms of
spirituality and more fulfilling, and so on. There's a separate
lecture we have for that. And we also have a detailed five or six
hour coverage for those who want to do that online as well. So you
can in sha Allah take that. So we're not saying that what you're
doing here is everything. Because it's very difficult to fully
prepare for everything. The reason is that in the past, when people
used to travel for Hajj used to take them months, he used to take
them months now you've booked and you're probably going to work
until the last day, unless you are going on Sunday and you finish on
Friday. But if you're going on a Friday, you might literally be
worth working till that afternoon, coming home and then rushing to
the airport. And then within about seven to 10 hours you're going to
be there
it's just too fast.
It's just too fast in the sense that compared to how it used to be
where he used to literally take days and days and days and
anticipation is growing
right the spirituality is growing the longing is increasing. And
then finally you make the data totally different experience in my
assumption. So we have to try to do that for ourselves by
designing and developing that noggin from now as the days go by
because it could possibly that be the only journey that you will
make therefore hedge
and it needs to be in sha Allah the best one. As far as possible
though inshallah we ask Allah subhanaw taala to give us many,
many, many more opportunities in the future. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said the hygiene and the ombre person is a
delegation for of Allah subhanho wa Taala when they ask Allah for
something he answers, and if they seek forgiveness, Allah forgives
them. Now in terms of what you should take and so on. I'll try to
cover that later. And we've got it on screen because it's better to
show you some pictures. Well I'm gonna do now is talk about the
spiritual preparation of the journey a bit about the spiritual
preparation of the journey. Firstly, you want to go for Hajj
not to be called a *
by your friends but maybe to go be conda Hiji by Allah subhanho wa
Taala that I fulfilled my obligation. It is one of the five
pillars of Islam as you know.
Sincere sincerity and correct intention enhances the Hajj you'll
still go for hygiene like everybody else you'll still go on
the buses and you'll still go and hotel and gone to the dough often
was very fine you will finish it off and it can be a tick box
exercise. However the better the intention is and the longing is,
the better the feeling and what you get out of it and how you
benefit from it. Repentance from all past sins is amazing because
you don't want to go there and
If
you don't, you don't want to go there and be carrying sins with
you, because that's a, it's like you're carrying extra weight,
spiritual weight. We're trying to take from there, all the blessings
and the rockmart. So if we can be forgiven, before we go, then we go
purified, then we enhance ourselves and come back, like the
day that our mother's gave us birth in sha Allah, right?
Resolving differences, and seeking forgiveness from others, that is a
think, because
if we're gonna get forgiven, we seek forgiveness for our own
misdeeds against Allah great, but what about those that I owe
somebody money, or I've swung at somebody or insulted somebody or
mistreated somebody, that's going to be a burden on me, Allah is not
going to forgive that until the person forgives that.
So that's why gone do as they say, mafi to Luffy. In a go and seek
forgiveness from people and clear your debts with others.
If you have any outstanding debts to pay, then make sure that you've
cleared that or you have made arrangements, or if it's a long
term debt, then if they don't expect it back sooner, then it's
fine. Right? You don't want to be going for hedge wide, you owe
somebody money and they want your money and you're going for hedge
hedge might not even be obligatory on you. In that case, make sure
that your hedge expenses are from a halal source.
Right? If somebody has doubtful wealth, the are the most suggests
that take a loan from somebody who's got Khaled wealth.
Use that money for hygiene and pay him back.
One of the one very, very important thing is to choose the
right company, if you can nowadays, I don't know if you've
still got that ability to go with the group that you want to go
with, because it's kind of become a bit more random since last year.
So just pray that Allah give you a right group and companions,
because that would really enhance your hedge if you got the right
companions. And if you got the right scholar and guide, that
makes a massive difference. If you have the right scholar, a guide,
that makes a very big difference, because you know, you're studying
all of this now and you read stuff as well. But what's going to
happen is when you get there because you don't do it every day.
You're gonna you're gonna phase out, like, Okay, what do I do now?
That's why take good notes. This isn't a bond, right? So don't just
sit here listening to things. Try to take notes, and get books on
hedge, if you can. And what I would suggest that yes, you're
listening now just to set the whole scene for you. But what I
found very, very useful is that every day, before neck the next
day, every day, do a Tallinn and a refresh with your group, your
family, whoever you're going with for the next day's events. That
way you're prepared a day in advance because right now it's
several weeks in advance.
I forgot stuff. I taught a class before I went to hedge first time
we got there was like okay, what do we do now, because it's just a
whole different scene that you haven't practiced before such. So
I find to be very useful now is the day before, go through the
stuff for the next day, the activities and the events for the
next day, so that the next day is not a surprise anymore. Very, very
useful like that. Of course, I've mentioned all of these things,
learn as much as possible as you can about hygiene, ombre, the
significance, the virtues, the laws, the historical aspects, all
of that really helps you connect. So it doesn't become just a little
exercise a little one day tall or something like that, you're going
to need to ask them, so try to memorize as many doors as possible
or write them down and collect them or get a Kitab a book of
doors, make lists of doors that you want to make for yourself, you
know on your phone or wherever make a list of doors because when
you're there, sometimes you may not remember at each of those
faces Budweiser except you might not remember what to do. So I
think it's very, very good. These are practical advice that I found
useful that you can just pull out your phone and do all the doors.
You've seen a car for the first time Yes, you can do those from
your heart whatever comes out, then you may want to do the hours
that you think are important for yourself. Get up people are gonna
give you a shopping list and give me your shopping list for two
hours of your loved ones. And you can when you have time you can
make dua for them those their two hours you can make for them.
Learn how to do Salah on a flight we've got a video about about that
on zamzam Academy, praying while traveling on a flight gone. Look
at that. And you also better learn if you don't know how to do it
already most people do but if you don't, how to do salata Janaza why
you're going to do so many salata Genesis as you've never done
before in your life, because neither after every prayer there's
going to be a salad or janazah in macoco Medina if you've been
formula, you know, so you need to know the doors for children if
they if they've died or for
all the adults, right? So that's really useful to know your salata
Janaza properly and of course any other physical preparation because
we're going to be a lot of walking a lot of sleep deprivation, a lot
of jostling and clambering and sleeping outside and all sorts of
stuff so physically it's a good idea to start walking right now
and you need a lot of patience.
Okay, let me just give you an idea this is get a very cut down
version of what I suggest because we don't have too much time. A
travel belt is very useful during your firearm days because the
harms don't have pockets for women. It's okay they can have
pockets they wear their normal clothes anyway. Right? But for men
a haram garments if you're going to Makkah first, then you want to
take your hand garments from here you're going to Medina first don't
worry about it because you can buy it there if you want to go to
Makkah or you don't have to have an Iran you're going to Medina
first we're gonna have to have an alum from here but if you're going
to Mecca first you're gonna have to have an add on both sides of
you from here somewhere. Right so you need to find something haram
garments. This drawstring bag is very very useful to carry your
shoes in the masjid because the you don't leave them in the shoe
racks because they could you might not find you might go out for a
night under the entrance or carry your slippers with you.
kilt pins for if somebody is worried about their house slipping
off, then get kilt pins instead of drawing pin that the normal normal
pins. This Lana Kane stuff is very very good for men. Right. There's
probably other stuff in the market knows with Lana Kane stuff, it
dries on in the end as opposed to vasti viscious for it's an anti
shaving gel. Because when when you're when you're in a haram and
it's hot there and your thighs rub with each other, rub together. It
could get sore and then it gets chaffed or chafed whatever the
word is, and then it's very, very painful for the next two or three
days. Some people try to use Vaseline Vaseline is sticky, this
stuff is good. It has no smell, the anti shaving gel, okay, not
shaving, shaving, right. And it's really good. It works for the
whole day, you just have to refresh it once a day. And it
works very well. Sandals, you don't want to get these little
which are sandals that you know you get while in a form you need
sandals, right? You don't want to get the cheapest two pound sandals
from Primark it I would actually suggest you spend a good amount of
money to get good slippers because you're going to need them and
you're going to walk a lot in them. Right I spent a lot of money
invested a lot of money in in some really good slippers. Right?
Because a very important otherwise your wants your feet mess up, then
it takes a while to recover. So you want very soft slippers with
very good material. Okay, are these okay? For a haram in the
Hanafi madhhab. You can't have your top portion covered where you
tie your shoelaces that can be covered and your ankle and
everything in line with that can be covered. All right, so you
can't have that covered. That's why the only slipper this these
sandals don't work.
These sandals don't work because he's got these flaps at the top.
Right, they cover above the ankle, so that doesn't work either. These
don't work because they cover the shoe the middle ones because they
cover the shoes, shoe section, sorry, the shoe lace section, the
metatarsal coliform bone section, these could work but they're a bit
more complicated therefore they're really professional, who knows
what he's doing. And then these anything like this, these Croc
sandals or loci reef there's a lot of companies out there that make
3040 pound sandals but you're spending several eight 910 15,000
pound for a hedge I would spend I would spend 3040 pound for sandals
to be honest. And then you can use them forever inshallah for your
home runs and things like that. Get some good sandals with a
decent would you call that installed in step right so that
your your well and that'd be a very good suggestion that women
you can have any decent, comfortable footwear that you
want. Okay.
Now what we're going to do is I'm gonna explain to you the three
types of hedge quickly
for that what you need to know is currently as soon as Ramadan
finished Chawan by way in Shawwal about to go into the lcada and
then it's going to be Ville, hedger, Hajj starts around the
seventh or eighth of Ville hedger the third month after Ramadan. As
soon as Ramadan finishes and shall begins, the months of hajj begin
technically we are in the month of hajj
right now what's special about this time is that
the hedge will begin after the seventh of vil hedger two months
and
Seven Days or eight days after Ramadan, so you have two months
and seven days of asuran Hajj before Ramadan, before Hajj
begins, Hajj is on a set to date, right? Pizza Ville hija, you go to
Mina ninth of the Jain Arafa. That's what that set.
Now, what determines what type of hedge it is there are three types
of hedge what determines that is whether you're able to do a ombre
during this time before hedge or not.
Let's make it simple. If you go there and you don't do our
homework beforehand, you go directly into hedge. Then you've
got the simplest hedge, which is the last one called the fraud, the
single hedge, you can then do O'Meara's afterwards, that doesn't
count afterward. That doesn't count as one of these other
categories that
okay.
So simple, simple point is, if you're only going to do hedge,
then that's going to be the fraud hedge. After that you can do
O'Meara's after hedge. This only matters if you're going to do
Omura beforehand, okay. Most people do do a O'Meara beforehand,
because they go early. They do our ombre. And then after they come
out of Omura, and then they do patch afterwards. separately. If
that's what you're doing, then there's two types, which is the
first two type you do or ombre the first one you do or Omura, you
come out during these days, maybe five days before hij 10 days
before hydro, whatever.
And then after that you're going to hedge most people are going to
be doing tomato.
Does anybody you guys know what you're doing already? Who is doing
tomato?
Okay, who who is doing Quran
Quran is the toughest one but the most superior one, which is that
you go in you do or O'Meara and you stay in Iran.
You don't come out.
So you stay in a home with all of its restrictions. And then you go
into and then you go fight so you make intention for both from the
beginning. Now if you're going towards the end, it's okay. You
don't have to be too long in Iran. But if you're going seven days in
advance or more, you're gonna have to stay in Iran. That's tough. But
if that's what you want to do, I'm going to focus more on tomato
okay. The only other difference that I see the difference between
the first two and the last one last one is only a hedge, then you
can do O'Meara's afterwards, they don't count as part of this. But
if you're going to do a Amara beforehand, and either you're
going to do it together, or you're going to do it separately, most
people are going to do it separately. If you are going to do
an ombre beforehand, in Quran or tomato. The only difference is
that you have to pay you have to do a sacrifice as well.
You know that they call the hedge qurbani the hedge hedge
dumb Why do you have to do that? Because Allah gave you the
opportunity to do an ombre and a hedge during the days of hide
during the months of hedge. That's why
that that's that's what makes it so that's why you have to pay a
quarter bunny as tax. But if you're just gonna go and do a
fraud hedge, and then you do Omaha's after that while you stay
there afterwards. No problem that because you're out of the month of
hi Janelle. That's later on. You can do as many as you want. No
Matt No, no no difference.
The Quran one is more complicated because if you do a violation, you
have to pay two penalties. Because you've done a penalty against
ombre and hudge because you're not out of homeright heads. Right.
Anyway, we'll discuss that more in detail if you have any other
questions later. Let's move on. As I said, we're going to be talking
about tomato
what happens in tomato is that you're gonna go in in advance
and you're gonna go to Makkah, anytime you enter Makkah, you have
to do a aamra At least you can't just enter MCCA like that.
You have to put your arm on and do a ombre and then after that you
can do whatever else you want to do. So
I'm with them at the antecedent around twice minimum one for ombre
comes out. Then he's normal without a haram and then after
that he enters for Hajj.
So
what you do is you go in 10 days in advance seven days in advance,
you go in a haram you do o'mara which is just often say cut your
hair, shave your hair whatever and then you're free to just carry on
doing the walks as normal but you're not in a haram anymore but
you're in Makkah benefiting from the or then you go to Medina mana
some people go Medina in between they come back. Now when you come
back, or when is the days of Hajj eight Phumzile Hijra. Usually they
take you on the seventh sometimes as well. On the eighth of ZiL
hija.
You will now enter into a haram again from Makkah, you don't have
to go anywhere for this one. Once you've done o'mara the obrah Haram
has to be worn from outside. I'll explain that a bit later. But once
you're in Makkah
got to wear the Iran for hygiene don't have to go anywhere you can
wear it from your hotel. Because you're like a monkey now you're
like a Mexican person.
You're on your way home from there and then you'll start the five
days of Hajj. I'll explain that later. But that's essentially what
you do. That's a tomato. And then after that you give a sacrifice of
thanks.
If you're doing a fraud, if fraud which is the singular for hygiene
only, then I'm assuming that you're gonna go very late.
Otherwise, you're going to if you go seven days in advance, or 10
days in advance, you're gonna have to stay in hedge arm all the way
until you finish hedge. Most people aren't going to do that. So
even if you are doing this, there's no ombre. The only
difference is that there's no one right in the beginning. It's only
one hedge and you don't have to pay a sacrifice of thanks. Right
now look at this. Don't worry about what are the side names,
they're just area names which don't apply to us. Most of us are
going to go by a flight and we're going to land in Jeddah if you're
going to Makkah otherwise you're going to end in Medina one of them
this doesn't apply to you anyway.
How many of you are going to get the
the rest of you are going to uh
oh, those are Medina you're more relaxed because you're just going
to go there without a haram and then you're going to come down
from Can you see the donor data at the top,
the green one at the top, el Medina. That essentially is going
to be your me cards for when you come for Hajj or Umrah, whatever
it is from Madina Munawwara that mica is different. Look at where
Maca is Mkhize here. Judah is very close only an hour away to the
left. And MK the Zulu Khalifa is like four hours away. You have to
be in Iran from there. If you're going to come from Madina
Munawwara basically, you know, this broken line, that is the me
card line, that's the outside me card line, that if you're coming
from outside of this area, you have to be in Iran before you
enter that area. So if you see the line here by GID, that is outside
of Chinda in the water. That's why you can't wear a haram engine,
they you have to wear it beforehand. And if your flight is
going to the Emirates or that side first, and then you're coming from
there, then you have to wear the Iran before you get to this that
way, they'll usually announce that anyway. You just wear it from the
airport, in Abu Dhabi, or Dubai or wherever you're going.
Alright.
Now, how do you wait around.
If somebody is going to harm I can do a demonstration at the end.
Otherwise, we've got to Iran demonstrations on our channel, on
YouTube, and we'll send that to you. Or you can check it up on zum
zum Academy inshallah. But essentially, there's a few things
you do beforehand. You could be in Medina when you're doing this, or
you could be at home, if you're going to do it from here was to
have to clip your nails, remove your unwanted hair, armpits, and
so on most trim the mustache.
It's also recommended to have husband and wife intimacy because
then you're going to be out of that while you're in a harangue.
Take a bath a shower, for at least perform will do.
Then what you do is
you put on your haram garments, the two sheets for the men, for
the women, they can have anything that anything modest and covering
works for them. Okay, then,
if you don't want to put her on now, and you're going to put it on
at an intermediate airport, like in Turkey or Jordan, for example,
you got a connection, and you don't want to wear it from here,
that's fine. It's still well before the court, right. So you
can take in your hand and don't forget it. If you're going to
Makkah first and you forgot your harangue, and you can't find one
in the hotel in Egypt, sorry, in the airport, nice, you're gonna be
in trouble. All right. So you want to make sure that you take your
slippers, your special slippers, and your haram and your belt and
everything. If you're not doing it from home, and you're gonna do it
from the airport here, or in the intermediate place. Before you
enter Iran, you can apply perfume to your body. Because once you're
in a home, you can't have any perfume, you can enter into a
Hannah with perfume on but you can't apply it afterwards.
Alright, so it's a good idea to get some long lasting decent
perfume for men. Because then you're not going to be able to
apply it for a while. Right? Perform Tura cuts of a haram
prayer.
When it's time for press, you do two records of a home prayer. If
you're in a flight when you're doing this, you can sit down and
perform them in your seat in any direction.
Right? Then you make your intention. Now, if you're going to
enter into Iran, it's like you know when I say Allahu Akbar,
that's when I enter into prayer, right? If I intend I'm going to do
prayer. I'm going to do prayer, but I don't do anything. I'm not
in prayer. It's only when I say Allahu Akbar. Now I'm in prayer. I
can't eat, drink, speak.
likewise, a haram is a state the cloth is just the same just
because you got the garments on doesn't put your dryer on you can
have the online now
it's having the cloth on and then making an intention and then
saying love bake along with a bake. That's when you get into
Iran, the State of Iran after which, you know, you're a guest of
Allah and you can't to do X, Y and Zed you know you can't clip your
nails or your hair or you should be arguing and and so on and so
forth.
So after you do the terracotta prayer, then you intend Oh Allah I
am doing this ombre or this Hajj make it easy for me. You're still
not into a haram yet. Then you say the bake Allah who made a bagel a
bagel or should you go look at a bacon they'll handle a narrow
Metallica when will clash Eddie Kolak now you're in Africa, like
I've said Allahu Akbar. I'm in
the for the men they can they have to wear white usually. So don't go
and try to find a red or haram or something like that. Right? Just
to be different. It needs to be
I've explained all the rest of it, right.
And
as I said, you can perform, you can put some
perfume on beforehand. Okay, around for women, they can
continue to wear their everyday stitch clothes. You can wear a new
carpet, the niqab, but it doesn't you can't have anything touching
your face. Usually they have these caps so the the cloth drapes
further out, so their face is veiled.
You can have a son hat and drape the niqab over that if you want to
clothing of any color gloves, socks and normal footwear are
allowed. But don't wear flashy colors and stuff like that. Try to
wear subdued, comfortable clothing, and it's going to be
hot, it could be hot as well. Even if a woman is in her menstruation
or postnatal bleeding. No, it makes no difference. The only
thing she can't do is pray the Torah cuts, but she can still
enter into her arms say the bake and all the rest of it. But she
won't be able to do tawaf until she's out. Okay.
Just in case somebody wants to ask that. That's those are going to be
days of menstruation and I don't want to get stuck. Then they can
consult a doctor and take some pills to delay the menstruation
and to push it out. And when they do do hours, like the Tobia TLBs
the bagel, they'll do it silently as opposed to loudly
due to the gods you can have your hat on while you're doing drugs
because you're not in Iran yet. Once you've done the tour Gods now
you're gonna get into it. I'm Take your hat off because you can't
cover your head.
In Iran, yeah, so we uncover So now take it off,
make a DUA
and then say that there'll be a there'll be a Missoula bake.
Allahumma bake. I'll explain what that means. So that you understand
afterwards. Women say silently and as soon as you've done a una
haram, no.
These are the intentions.
You don't have to do them in Arabic. Right? Essentially all
you're saying is Oh Allah, I desire to perform Umrah.
Make it easy for me and accept it from me.
Now you know if you are going to do a tomato, then what is the
first one you're going to do?
For Amara, now, you're so excited about hydrate. Don't go into a
haram of Hajj from there by mistake.
Oh Allah, I'm doing this hedge for you. Then that means you've put
yourself into hygiene haram. You actually know in hygiene you want
to do O'Meara first, then come out right then do Hajj. So don't make
that mistake. Make sure you make O'Meara haram only.
This is the Lubbock and you know you're gonna have to memorize
this, but make sure you know what it means so that when you utter
it, you know what you're saying? And there's some feeling in it. It
means here I am Oh ALLAH.
Here I am.
You have no partner. Here I am. All praises for you. Every bounty
is from you. All kingdom and dominion is yours and you have no
partner.
We are
we are responding
to the call of Ibrahim Ali Salam when he built the house and Allah
says what other than fineness he will hedge to carry shirt and why
that couldn't be done it in Yeah, Tina and Tina mean Khalifa
generic. Now gone after they built the Kaaba Ibrahim I was told to go
and announce that people should come. You heard the call and
you're going so that's facing I'm here for you Allah where it's a
journey of love, said journey of presence to Allah subhanaw taala
that's why you see in the big over and over again. That is your main
dua until a certain point in the Hajj or Umrah Okay.
Now you carry on doing this Tobia wherever you go. You'll hear
people doing it, you do it over and over again, just keep doing it
and Tich then you will carry on doing it all the way until you
pelt the big shaytaan on the 10th of the ledger.
So there's a difference of how long you do it for.
You say it in the morning evening when you're going when you're
traveling, when you're going up in a lift and you're coming down and
you're going outside you just keep saying it basically.
Okay, you know, in a haram, the general prohibitions of a crime is
good to quickly go through these right? Men cannot wear solid
clothes in a haram once they put themselves in until they've cut
their head. That means you can't wear a shirt, a turban, a hooded
cloak, trousers, underwear, you can't wear underwear, you can't
wear socks, and you call were full of shoes, and even your sandals
need to be those cut downwards, right?
what is forbidden is stitched material. Now, if I took a jacket
and I was feeling cold a coat and I was even cold and I just draped
it over myself, that would be okay, because I'm not wearing it
as it's supposed to be one. When you don't want to do that. I'm
just saying right
now men cannot wear headgear.
You can't wear gloves. Women can wear their own clothes, even if
they're stitched or whatever no problem. They just can't have any
cloth touch their face except as mentioned above, gloves are
permitted if you really want to wear them but not advisable.
Be careful of scented hot scented hot towels in the flight
sometimes they give their their scented you can have a scent, it's
going to be so easy because it's so used to when he goes to the
toilet that you just take the soap and using it because second nature
for us to do that. That's where you will make mistakes about all
the time just be careful about that because you shouldn't be
doing that.
Right You're not allowed to apply perfume as well.
You can change into a new set of a haram sheets if you want to. As
long as they're not perfumes, right? If somebody wants like five
days really hot. One usually works some people change but you're just
going to carry extra luggage. And women you can you can move into a
new set of clothing if you want to.
Toothpaste can't be used unless you're a fragrance free. Alright,
mouthwash, etc. You can't have scented food as either like very
minty Safra new, extra vanilla and Rose essence you have to avoid
that because I sent your mouth
anything related to sexual * and that's not
allowed. Removing hair from any part of the body clipping nails is
not allowed. Killing lice is also not allowed. Of course, if it's a
harmful animal then you can kill that.
If you kill one or two lice women, you know kill one or two lice.
It's sadaqa. Anything more than that it's a dumb.
So if you like killing lice, be careful. Right?
Okay, that's on the preparation in brief. Now, how do you do the
hombre so in practice, right. And practically speaking, what you're
going to do is you're you're going to go to the airport, you get
there you do your visa and all that nowadays, Alhamdulillah is
taking much it takes not much time at all used to take hours before.
Now Alhamdulillah it's very streamline. Hopefully we like that
this year as well. You will be put on to whatever transport I don't
know what's going on nowadays, but you'll be put on to some transfer,
you get to Makkah, and hopefully you will get your hotel quickly.
And even when you get your hotel, hopefully you will get your rooms
quickly. And even when you get your rooms quickly. Hopefully you
will be in the right kind of people. Because there was quite a
bit of chaos last time. So I'm just meeting too often you say I
mean? None just look on my face as though What are you talking about?
Right? I'm making dua for you. Okay.
Relax. You don't have to rush to do the ombre. You might be tired.
It might have taken you hours, you might have been held up somewhere.
So go put your stuff in, relax, take a shower, without soak it
sooner to take a shower in Makkah. That means it's like a wash.
Right? Don't use the soap and shampoo. If you're tired, relax,
if you want to eat, go and eat whatever you want to do, right.
Then when you're ready, you need to go into your O'Meara so I'm
doing this as tomato. So we're going to do ombre first. So
one ombre is is haram. You ate and you're already in a haram then you
go and do seven dwarfs. Then you do seven sorry
between Safar Mariah, and then you cut your hair and you're out.
That's it. It takes about two hours.
So it does once your day takes about two hours
that's O'Meara
when you're ready, go with your group, your family wherever it is
go to the to the Haram which is the masjid and you're going to
have your haram on and the
Women in their normal clothes, right? Nowadays, there's a
specific door. Usually the King Fahad door and onto the right of
King AbdulAziz door under the under that bridge is where they're
letting usually and unless they change it again, here's where they
usually let you go for tawaf down into the tawaf area.
They don't let anybody go into the area unless you got an A haram on
or women, right? So that's where you're gonna go, you're gonna say
Oman. So you're gonna go there. And how many of you have done
ombre before or not done O'Meara before?
Okay, so the majority have said, You know what this is done, right.
So I'm not going to take too much time on this, because I've got a
separate coverage in detail, but I'll cover it with some detail.
You entered a masjid with your right foot, and you're reading
Tobia, you're still doing the bake. And whichever door it is, I
mean, there are preferences but now it's so busy that you can't
always go from where you want to the fascia you from wherever they
want to take you. Continue looking down until you're at a good
convenient place where you can see the Kaaba.
Because when you see the Kaaba for the first time, all of your doors
are accepted. So you want to be in a community. So you can literally
stop there and just cry your eyes out and make as many doors to your
heart's fulfill. So that's what you can do first, just stop there,
take your time. And, you know, make your
your doors
and then after that, you go into
the mess out the pool, where you start doing your laps, where you
start going around the house of Allah subhanaw taala.
So as you know, this, you have to start from where the Blackstone
is. Now, if you're following, there's a lot of people that
you're not going to know where that is so easily. There are
certain signs and you'll get used to it eventually. There is
sometimes a light or a mark on the masjid to the right hand side but
it's usually where everybody raises their hands. You'll just
see that as a certain place where everybody's doing that. So you
have to figure that out. The Blackstone is to the left of the
door of the cover. So your intention
you have to have no intention for Amara sorry photo off. So usually
start from a bid in advance and you start moving anti clockwise
towards the Blackstone line.
Remember you have to have will do for this tawaf is not accepted
without purity. So if women are in menstruation you can't do it off
until you finish. Men have to have wudu if you break although in
between you go do and come back and carry on. But you can't do it
though off without sudo rights like like salata century.
Now as soon as you seem to Blackstone, you have to stop
saying Tobia that the AFS now starts. So you make an intention.
Right?
without raising your hands First you make an intention. You say, Oh
Allah, I'm performing tawaf of Omura to please you make it easy
for me and accept it from me. Anything like that, any words to
that effect you can do?
All right. So now when you start going around, it will be for
tawaf. If you started just going around like that without
intention, which Why would you do that right, then that wouldn't be
thorough. So you have to make intention, I guess, if you're
going in there to go run, you're going to make intention anyway,
you don't have to say by your tongue, by the way, you can just
think it I'm doing the work. That's it. That's enough. Now
because this is a toe off of ombre for men, they have to do this,
they have to unravel their right shoulder with a color in the T
bar. Only men do this.
Right. So that's the way you'd have your ramen. And you have to
do that until the end. For all seven rounds. Woman don't cover
uncover any part of their body.
Another thing that men have to do for that off, for this ombre tawaf
and for their main headstone off usually is Ramadan.
Ramadan means like a marching,
you know, we have to keep the right.
Bear, right. But you also have to do a rumble. And rumble basically
means that you do this marching, which is you just lift your knees
more and you kind of take more heavier steps to show some
strength. You will do that only for
the first three circuits. It's like a brisk kind of marching
walk. That's only if there's space to do that. If you're, if you're
gonna go there and the numbers are going to be huge and you can you
don't want to be kicking people. So then you just do the best that
you can. So you don't don't walk too calmly in that sense. Then you
have to walk like in a stronger gait for the first three. Then for
the last four, it's as normal, okay.
Women don't have to do that.
As I mentioned to you once you've gone round seven times you do your
final istilah. And then you kind of start going out in a tapered
fashion towards the Messiah, it says to the Messiah, where the say
is the entrance to that is that's where the Zamzam water is as well.
So you kind of edge your way out
and you get that. Now the purpose is now what you do is is similar
to have Zamzam water and literally says stuff your flanks with Zamzam
water, drink as much and you probably would be thirsty by now.
So having * is similar to have zum zum. And
then after that you go to do the prayer. Now when you do zum zum
there's a special offer zamzam which you can memorize the
longwing yes okay. And now if you're out what is called last
year at what Shiva I'm in Khalida,
which basically means I asked you if Oh Allah asked you for
beneficial knowledge, ample sustenance and a safeguard from
every illness, may Allah accept that. Then after that, you have to
do Toora cards for tawaf.
The preference is to do it by Maqam Ibrahim, but if it's too
busy there, you can do it anywhere. So you will see a lot of
people where you go to drink zum zum there's going to be lots of
people doing it there you just do your Tura gods for tawaf. This is
as long as you're not in a Macoun time. So if it's after fajr or
federal time, or if it's after so you've just prayed us to the new
condo then you'd have to delete to later but you eventually have to
do it there why Egypt to do these two rakaats good yeah, you and
Catherine and Paula had is the preferred reading and then
likewise, it is the preferred reading for your F ROM, the ROM
Toora cards as well. Okay.
Then after that you do dua to Allah subhana wa Tada. Oh Allah
accept this from me, the stuff that I've just done, and forgive
my mistakes and shortcomings in it. And allow me to do it many,
many more times.
Nestor McCollum, Ibrahim. But again, if you can't pray there,
don't insist and block the path just go to the back because you
can pray anywhere.
Okay, now, these are some tawaf rulings that are very important to
understand.
The Wharf, every dollar of has to be seven rounds is not though of
less than seven.
Okay?
The Kaabah should always be on your left, so you can't move
around facing the Kaaba, like sideways, that won't be counted,
you'd have to do that portion again. So it literally has to be
TLS shown that you shouldn't even be looking at it.
You shouldn't even be looking at the curb as you go along. It's not
here, look forward down.
Right. You can if you look toward be fine, but you shouldn't be.
That's not what you're looking at what you're doing, you're going
around in humility, around the house of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.
If you get jostled, and you take a few steps, with your left
shoulder, not towards the Kaaba, but your body towards the Cabal
behind then you have to do that part. Again. Don't get too
paranoid about that, like a bit of movement here and there, that's
fine. But don't like you find a friend. And then you start walking
like that to the car, you know, behind the cover because you're
talking to your friend don't do that.
The offer is valid only within the boundaries of the messaging and
doing any of the floors technically it doesn't have to be
at the bottom and you can't do it outside
will do is required. If you break it, go make it up again, come
back.
intention for thought does not have to be made allowed. You can
just do it in your mind. I'm doing Oh, that's where you're going.
Therefore what else are you gonna go around for? Right so you're
obviously got intention anyway. Only the Tobia should be allowed
allowed.
Women Be careful where you do the off because it can get quite crazy
busy down there and then you're gonna get stuck in the middle and
Allah protect.
If solid starts in between, that's fine, just stop, pray there and
carry on.
It's not a big deal. You have to restart your dough off. Right.
If you have completed less than four rounds and circuits and the
above happened, then it's better to restart your toe off.
But not necessary is better to restart. If it's less than four
seconds you only that a minority then Ave. out of seven you've done
a minority then you might as well restart. But otherwise you can
carry if you're in a hurry
of aside from the Blackstone, Yemeni Kona avoid touching any
other parts. Be careful when you're in a haram of touching. If
you do get close to touching the cloth or other parts because there
could be perfume on there that they put on there and then you'd
be in trouble.
There is no particular vicar for tawaf, except the Yemeni corner to
the Blackstone where you say hola hombre bene attina for dunya
escena that da so you can do any dua. What I do is either have a
collect a a comprehensive book of doors, while I have my list of
doors, or what I do sometimes is that for every tawaf, I dedicate a
special to all that is important to
me
like if for my children is a very one to offer me then for the whole
round I'll make dua only for my children. For the next one I make
dua, Oh Allah, I want to be accepted for the service of your
the
Oh Allah make me a better person, whatever is important like figure
out seven of your most important to us that you'd want and take the
whole tower one hold off and do that
you can do whatever the * you want. You don't have to read from
anything you can if you want to heartfelt was the best.
Or you can dedicate a very comprehensive dua from the Hadith
that we have. Right a certain die that really inspires you that you
really you know, is profound for you just do that there are all the
way around. You can read Quran you can do the route Sharif, you can
you can just contemplate you can just be thinking of Allah
to understand you can do while you're just because other people
are there chanting loud doors, don't feel bad. Because you're
doing something else you do what
you think is most useful for you.
Okay, now we're gonna go to the site you we've done our tour of
Alhamdulillah we're gonna go to the site we've had arrest in
between by drinking some zum zum Tura cards do now you're going to
proceed to the Messiah, the same suffer Marois. Usually the rule is
of the reality is, the higher you go, the higher flow you go, the
less busy it is.
So if you don't want to be part of a big crowd, going back and forth
for say, go around, find the upper floors on escalators or whatever.
And gone, the higher you go, the less people and
you can literally run a marathon and on the highest floor, right if
that's what you want to do.
But what you do is when you get to, sorry, the massage period
where the sufferer is, there's not much of a mountain left now you
can see some behind the glass. You still have to first turn toward
the Kaaba and do a istilah
in that direction, this is your ninth istilah
you've done a already put it off nine fistula and then you read the
DUA in the Safa Well, Murata. Insha Allah and you make your
intention. Intention is simple, I'm doing say, May Allah accept it
and make it easy for me.
And
there's other doors you can read like La ilaha illallah wa the hula
Shanika, we will call him to your for you where you meet or are you
liable to be at the end of a river and our coalition included?
That's a bit of a
hill, aren't they? You can see this on the ground floor. And you
can see from above if you look through the circular hole, right.
Before they used to be two mountains. Hi, John. And they have
Salam she climbed atop and she came down. And then what you're
going to see are these green lights, the still green lights
there for a short section of the hole for like a quarter of it.
There's green lights. That was the valley flow. So when Hydra is
unkind the mountain and she came down, this is the part she ran and
then the next mountain that's my assumption that's why we run there
because that's where Hydra is have ran. But women don't run today
because she was alone. We you know, women don't run down to the
men run. And then the women just catch up and then they carry on.
That's where you'll have to run the rest of it. You can walk.
So, Safar Mariah,
you start at suffer from that left hand side and you go to Marwa
that's one shots. You come back, that's 234 Where will you end up
at seven at Safa, Marwah.
Anybody going to have a person suffer.
Then that means you got it wrong. There was somebody who thought
suffered to miroir Beck is one sedated 14. Waste of time. Right?
It's a mistake. In fact, I had one person who just told me a few
years ago, that his friend said he's gonna go for toe off in the
morning. And he went and he's waiting for him waiting for him
waiting for him. I sort of time then he's finally finishing. So
what happened? I'm fitting him my toe off. He had done seven times
749 rounds. He thought that was one tawaf
Okay, he got seven dwarfs out of it, thinking it was only one but
you know what I mean? Don't mistake it.
Overall, this is about two miles altogether.
The whole seven rounds will be only about two miles. How long?
How long does two miles take you to walk?
There was
about 40 minutes to an hour
within a crowd and everything 40 minutes to an hour, that's where
it takes unless you take you take dua rests in between on both
sides, you get to suffer you do dua, you get to Marwa, you do dua,
each time you do. All right. And then after that,
you again, you can read anything you want. If the solid comes in
this time, you can just stop there and pray. You can stop for a
drink, you can stop for water, there's water stations, Zamzam
water stations down there.
And then you just carry on
first for suffer, by the way. And Marwa you don't need to do. So if
you did break your window, a woman came into menstruation after her
wife, she could do stuff on Marwa. That's no problem.
Is better to have although obviously, but you don't have to.
Now that you're your own Ross done now, there's only one last thing
you do is you go and cut your hair.
But don't be like such in a rush that some men and women what they
do is they take a pair of scissors there and when they get to Marwa
they start cutting their hair in front of everybody that's just
kind of silly, you don't do that. You go out. And the women can cut
take some scissors with you, you can cut your hair in your own, you
can actually cut your own hair. And you can cut somebody else or
once you've finished your ombre app or hedge rights, then you can
actually cut your own hair if you want to. For the men you go. As
soon as you come out, there'll be touts. They're saying
Baba Baba Baba, and they'll take you. So there's some under the
under the towers. And there's lots of other places for that.
Eventually, somebody will give you a place. They charge 1020 riyals
in hashtag to try to con you and charge 4050. So you shouldn't pay
anything more than 10 or 2010. Usually, but 20 Definitely. And
hash time no more than that. Otherwise, you can cut your own
hair, cut one another's hair, if you want to in your own room.
How much hair do you have to cut? So usually we cut all of it right?
The most reward is doing a shave of all the hair for men.
If you are going to do multiple, multiple top offs, sorry, multiple
cameras afterwards.
For some people, they
they don't want to cut it on. They want to carry later I just cut it
all and then I cut it all again. What's wrong with that I get the
reward. Why not? However, for women, and for men who don't want
to cut all the hair, the minimum you have to cut is about an inch
right of at least 25% of your hair of your head.
Now why would you cut only an inch of 25%. And what about the other,
there's going to be an inch left on 75% of your head do weird,
right. So the only time that anybody would want to do that is
if you're going to do like tons of auras. And you don't want very
short hair for women, for example. So what you do is you get one of
your head together, and then you cut an inch off. That's the best
for women. However, if you're going to do multiple cameras, and
you don't want very short hair, then you can do one inch from 25%
of all of your hair of your head, then the next time another 25 per
and then just straighten it on out if you want to. He says minimum
that's what you have to do.
You will see that there's other mud hubs and other people you'll
see they'll just be kind like three strands and they're done.
Shafi is do that the Hanafis can't do that.
Now that you're out of Iran, go and take a shower, and then you
will be in Makkah, you might go Medina, but you'd be in Macau
right and waiting for Hajj. In this time, you can go into knuffel
dwarfs the same way except that you don't have to wear f rom you
don't have to bear your arm for men. You don't have to do Roman,
you just do seven shots with the eight steel arms and two rockets
of cinemas. That's it. And then that is the best action you can do
in Makkah, because you can't do that anywhere else. The superior
to every other it does many to offices, you can do upstairs,
downstairs, wherever you get a chance.
And then don't waste any time. You know, do whatever else that you
want to do. May Allah subhanaw taala make it easy Hamdulillah
this is just I like to use maps to give you an idea what's going on
otherwise you're going to get there and be quite bewildered. So
you're in Makkah Where is Mecca here, completely on the left hand
side down there as you can see when a Masjid Al haram that's that
bright area is the masjid the surrounding area is Macau.
To the right of it is Mina here you can see Mina and next to Mina
is as easy as some people might be hosted in as easier that hotel
might be as easier. You can see how distant that is from Makkah.
Then further down next to Mina connected it was very far
in between the end
To area and then RFI is the furthest out.
As you can see RFI is the furthest out, that's where the amount of
mercy is.
So you've got Masjid Al haram Mina was dead ephah and then out of her
which is further out, so you're gonna go to Arafa that's where the
main event of the hedge takes place and then you come back.
Okay? So just want to say you know where you're going, and this is
our north, so Arafa is to the south east. Okay.
Now, if you zoom into Mina, maka ends there at that line. And then
all of this is Mina. All of this is Mina. And the Jamaat area
is that area right at the beginning by Makkah, and Masjid
haIf, which is the big Masjid of Mina is there
and the European Kamsa an hour's walk away. So from this Masjid
haIf it will take about an hour to walk to these European camps. And
as you can see, these are these these are tunnels, they've got
tunnels under these mountains so that you don't have to go all the
way around you had to go around, it'd be longer and you could get
very easily lost very easily get lost here. These camps have
different countries in different places. So the European camps they
extend from this area into was the differ
right, these are hedge days in a glance, the hedge days are only
these five days.
They're the busiest of the days.
So let's just look at it in brief so that you understand then we'll
look at each day in detail. Okay. The first day eighth of villager
sometimes they send you from the seventh just to get you there.
Right because is going to be very busy on eight. So usually most
people go after on the eighth in the morning, but some some some
groups or whatever they send you on the seventh evening so that you
stay one extra night there.
So if you aren't going according to the traditional way the Prophet
said last time, we you leave after Fisher you leave Makkah for Mina
on the eighth fails ZIL hija
you do the harasser, Maghrib and Isha prayers there, it's like a
landing spot before the main event the next day. Eight is a very easy
day, you just didn't mean a relaxing, getting used to the
environment. When you get there, you're going to find your space in
your tent. And people have different reactions, people feel
homesick.
Some people complain about too less space. But remember, they're
trying to get millions of people into the small area. So you get
like a space enough for a coffin. Usually, right? So take it easy,
and do the best that you can there. And he might be the first
time in many, many years that you're sleeping very close to two
other people that are not your spouse. Right. It's a bit of an
experience. Mashallah.
So you stay there the harasser, Marguerite Benicia, you do your
salats down there, and you do your other Earth gar, you can get ready
for the next day by doing your revision for what's going to
happen. Getting yourself prepared. Don't waste Jazak Allah don't
waste your time too much. And then what you do is you stay overnight
in Mina, because there's no other events on this day. So you spend
that night does anybody know? What they are for is going to be this
year? likelihood? Has anybody checked? If that's the case, then
I can make it easier for you? I didn't check today. Okay. So if
Wednesday is the day of Eid, that means is the 10th of villager.
Let's say that means the ninth is going to be a Tuesday. That means
you're gonna go to Mina on a Monday. Right? If our calculations
are right, then that means you're gonna go to Mina on a Monday.
You're gonna stay there for that whole Monday. All right. And sleep
there the night on your, whatever arrangements you've organized, and
they've organized for you. Now, the second day, that's the ninth
of the ledger. So it might be that might be Tuesday, after fajr. The
coaches will come and start taking you right to minute, sorry, two
out of the furthest place pass was that if that's the furthest place
you go out, right.
You have to get there before and you got ample time they'll start
taking people off to February takes a few hours to get the whole
camp out. But when you get to Arafah
in advance, find a place what you're going to do in out of ICU
only staying there for a few hours. That's a whole town that
comes up for a few hours and then it gets put down again. Literally
they only use it once a year like that. You're there from the odd to
Maghrib
you get there in advance if you've got the in advanced and have an
app. Don't waste your time because you want to spend from the door to
Maghrib
indoor, preferably standing. So you don't want to get tired
afterwards. So and then the next night could be very, very tiring
because you're going to sleep out in the open in was very for which
you may have never done in a long time, or never in your race. And
you may find not much space and you might get there late and then
it's just gonna get very busy. So you want to get a lot of rest
here.
What we usually do is when you get to offer early, we have a nice
nap.
Because it all starts off the thought there's nothing before you
can take a shower, I'll show you how the showers look. So you're
prepared
can take a quick shower for for Arafa just to queued up cooldown
anyway, so then you rest until God they'll have food and all the rest
of it down there. And then as when it gets to
the time, that's when you start making your DUA, you do LaBrea.
Some places they'll combine the anassa We only believe you should
do that in the masjid and not in your, in your tent. So we usually
do that first, and then also later, okay.
And then what you do is
you start doing your dog.
Right, you start doing your dog until Maghrib. I'll explain all of
that in detail. After modeling what you can't leave before mother
after maghrib you have to leave for was the refer. Thus the night
you're going to spend in mystery for a day in honor of the 10th.
The Tuesday the Tuesday night for Wednesday, you're going to spend
in was 35
You get so overnight, you get to study for you find a place to camp
out, The later you go, the less space there's going to be try to
make it as easy as possible. Women usually are in one area men are in
another area, just like slight distance away. If you can't, then
just the husband wife can be in one place separately somewhere,
right.
And then what you do is you a lot of people pick their pebbles 49
Minimum pebbles down there is loads of pebbles, by the way,
right, have a little bag with you. Or you can use an empty small
water bottle, whatever it is, and you pick your pebbles. And then
after that, get a good sleep, when you get to Menardo when you get to
was that if you have to pray your mother even Aisha you're not you
don't pray mother in order for even though it's time
you pray it in Isha time you actually miss your mother in time.
You don't pray Maghrib in Margarita it is the only time you
do this. You do it in a short time, in order for when you get in
Missouri for when you get there, right. Remember that. And there
you can do your own little Jamaats your own little groups, and then
have an app. Because the sooner that you wake up, the better the
toilets, you can get into there. Otherwise, that is the worst time
to get into toilets. Otherwise, you'd be there for hours waiting
in lines.
Right? It's gotten better because it's more tighter now than they
used to be. But still, that is the most challenging part. I think
what we usually suggest to people is keep water with you as well
from before if you can, so that you don't have to wait in lines to
do will do and nice and you can put your finger if you don't have
to use the bathroom such
then it's Wednesday, the day of Eid for everybody else in the
world. But for you It's the busiest day and you're not going
to do eat. You don't do eat prayer on that day. What you do is
you've stayed overnight and was ready for the standing in Mustafa
starts after federal in federal time.
Right, it starts in federal time.
So as soon as Fajr time comes in, you pray for Jim and then you
stand and do Cuf which means you do to us any leftover dollars that
you have.
And then after that you proceed towards Mecca or back to me and if
you want to the prophet is also meant to Makkah you can go back to
Mina if you want to because it's a big rush to get to Makkah so most
people don't go to Makkah straightaway. You go to Mina and
you rest and go later, because on this day you're gonna do
you're gonna do pelting. You're gonna do your qurbani and you're
gonna do
your hair cutting if you're combining a stump, and you could
do your tawaf. So there's at least three acts if not for X on that
day, this is your busiest day and you had a night outside. That's
why I said get some see beforehand.
Then after that, I'll explain all of this later. I just want to show
you this once you've done all of that you might have gone to Makkah
come back and then you relax again in Minot, you staying in Mina for
two more days, at least, or maybe three days. So the fourth day
which will be a Thursday, maybe the only job you have today is to
go and tell the shaytans all of them today
If you're in a European Captain take you an hour to get there and
back and another hour to get back. If you're close to the Jamala,
there is only 15 minutes.
But you just Pelt and then you come back and you just do all the
prayers and you just relax down there. And then the 12th of the
ledger, which is two days after, after your after the day after
Yeoman now have they call it again, the only job today is to
pelt 49 pelting. And then after you don't have to do more anymore,
pelting there's an optional day or a 30 day if you want to stay on
but you don't have to do that most people leave on the roof. And they
go back to Makkah and they've left me now now I'll explain all of
this in a bit more detail. But as everybody understand the five days
now, right it's very simple. First day you go to Mina and you relax
for five year five prayers and you stay overnight. The next day you
go to alpha you relax and after the war tomorrow if you do do
other that's your highlight. Then you go to was Daddy for pray
Maghrib and Isha. And sleep the night you do walk off at federal
time in was Jennifer. Then you proceed to Mina maca, DeVos,
pelting sacrifice and hair cutting. And then you stay in Mina
for two more days and then you're done.
What you take to Mina, take a little backpack, sleeping bag and
pillow if you unless they're gonna provide it there for you whatever
your arrangement is, any snacks that you require, or unless
they're gonna nurses fully catered.
To take a Quran take your hedge guide, take your DUA books, take
it as be take your medicines, your anti shaving gel, your
paracetamol, antihistamine, vitamin C, energy tablets,
caffeine tablets, no Red Bull, okay,
a change of clothes, you need to take a change of clothes because
if your qurbani is gonna get done while you're there, then you can
take a shower there, cut your hair, the whole place becomes a
barber shop. And then after that, you'll be out of Iran. So you're
gonna need to change out of your home you're gonna want to change
out of your home. So take a fresh set of clothing
and you can use soap and so on. So you can take toiletries, although
there are shops that you can buy stuff from but it's better just to
take your own and women take your scissors because you can cut your
own head and
Allah Allah Allah
Most likely you're going to be a Musa, then if you're staying in
Makkah and out of the area for less than 15 days, you're going to
be musafir. So you only have to pray to two records. For the
forecast prayers. You're going to stay there longer than you'd have
to pray phone. Okay.
And
from the European camps is difficult to get to the masjid is
an hour away. So easy, just pray in our own camps.
That's what minute looks like you could easily get lost.
That's what a tent looks like.
You can see the beds are next to one another. Sometimes you have
more pusher beds. But pretty much it's kind of like that. That's I
wanted to give you a zoomed in view of the toilets.
Because some people they get
they get really freaked out. So I want to show you what it looks
like that's pretty much I mean, there's one or two like the high
pan toilets. You go in there and there's a shower on the top where
you what you usually do is go in there, raise up your arm or
whatever, so that it doesn't fly all over the place. Take your top
off, throw it over the door. And then after that there's a water
spray, just kind of clean it up a bit and do your stuff. And then
and then get out the and then on the edge of each of them. They
might have improved this but this is how it usually is.
Make a lot of dwarfs etc on that day.
Right? You can spend time doing Quran, this be the vicar Salawat
Dwars ca press. Like I would really encourage that anybody
who's got makeup press from before. This is the absolute best
time to spend your time just do lots of cover press.
I don't mind children. They bring Baraka It's just that when it
disturbs others, it's an issue because then others people can't
listen that's on issue.
But otherwise, I like children to be around.
Okay.
Don't complain about stuff, you're gonna run into issues. Something
might not happen on time, the food might come late, the food might be
messed up. The coach might be late, somebody else might jump on
your seat, and so on and so forth. Lots of stuff can go wrong. If you
have a five star hotel or package, the five star is and
Should you stay in your room of your hotel? And as soon as you get
out, you're everybody else. Alright? Just remember that
the purpose of this is to it's a temporary place is not a permanent
home. Okay?
Okay, watch the top Ah, we're now going to Arafat. Now the second
day we're going to Arafat's
after sunrise you start going, I think I've talked about all of
this.
Just remember one thing, your camps are going to be numbered. So
remember the number of your camp. Usually the European camps are
from between 2830 to like 50 or something like that. So your camp
in Minar should represent the camp number in our efforts.
Alright.
Nowadays, we got phones and GPS, this is made life easy, otherwise
you can get lost there and not nowhere to go. All right, Allah
make it easy.
That's a basic setup. In Ottawa, they have much better setups as
well. And for that, several hours, they'll have fountains and all
sorts in these five star camps. They'll have all sorts of stuff,
they'll make it look like out of the wall for seven hours, and then
we'll come back down again. Right, but really, that's the basic camp
that we've been in once.
You see this is your main day, right? So as I said, Get there
early, have breakfast or whatever and have a nap so that your stret
you got your strength for after the heart.
Because the best way to do dua is outside, outside exposed standing
up.
That's the week of mean standing of Arafat's that's the way the
process and did it, he did it by the mountain, on the sides of the
road, you can go there if you want to, but he might be far from where
you are. And you might not be gonna make it back and you might
get lost. So you can do wherever you are. If you can't stand up any
more than you can sit down, of course, you're not forced to send
them. And if you can't stand up outside, come and stand inside is
too hot, stand up inside, if it's got a C stand up inside. If you
really get tired, go to sleep, have a little nap.
Don't waste time that so don't go on your phone, look at football
scores, and start wasting time YouTube videos or whatever.
Why have you got to five hours or six hours for the hour. So this is
the day when Allah says look, I'm giving you an empty check as big
as you want. And you can write whatever you want. And I'm giving
you 567 hours that you ask ask us and you get tired of asking or you
forget what to ask or you're exhausted as to what to ask and
you can't think then have a rest and go and ask again.
The way I do things that this is where your lists come in use.
Okay, when I've done all my lists, and I've done all the doors that I
can do, I might join in a collective door from someone
somebody else's door
when all of that finished and I've got like an hour to two hours left
I'll take a collect a comprehensive doable CLICK ON HIS
WILL Alvin. And we'll read the whole book. That book is amazing
because it has all of the doors from the Quran and the Prophet
sallallahu Sallam and Arusha if that you ever need to ask for
anything you need in this world or the hereafter, it's all in there.
And anything you need to seek refuge from, in this world, the
earth, it's in there. So what I do is I need the last two hours that
I just read that maybe takes you three hours. You know, do your own
doors first. When you get tired of your nose, you do that? Whatever
you ask for the shaytaan can come close. He's like a fart, looking
at the mercy coming down on this day. And he's like despondent.
Don't waste this day. This is the highlight of your hedge. This is.
One Hadith says that hydrographer Hydra is alpha.
That's what one Hadith says.
Right? If you miss RFI your hedges, there is no hedge. It's a
pillar of the hedge.
It's not something you can do later it's on that day on that
time even for a few moments you know you have to be there.
Sometimes if you're somebody is very sick in hospital and they've
come for hygiene, they'll fly them in at least for a few moments so
they can say they've done the Arafah
so that's when you do the standing and out of a you can take guitars
and different books and whatever else that you want to do.
This is the special artifort Dua from the Prophet sallahu Salah era
Hayden Allah Wacka would actually good Hello al mercado hamdu Harada
couldn't be che in Cardiff. So if you are going to pray us
afterwards Fine, don't do combat combination you do then you do
awesome and then you carry in your DUA and the DWIs until mother
again you can take breaks no probably.
Now when you get to market if time is going to be Maghrib time you
can't pray. You have to go to Mustafa to pray in Isha.
Time, the only time you miss a prayer basically and delayed
later.
Now, you've gotten to
was deliver usually only takes about 15 minutes to get to was
very far. But this was the toughest journey over 10 years
ago, he used to take three, four or five hours, even though it's
only like a few miles down the road because everybody was trying
to get there, people would actually get there Fajr time and
miss their motivation. That's how bad he used to be. Now
Alhamdulillah they've expanded it, and it's become much easier.
Again, you could be going straight after modeling for you could be
going two hours after McGreevey depends on when you're when your
turn comes because it can't take everybody at once. Some people
just decide to walk, it doesn't take that long, it takes about an
hour to walk or hour and a half maybe.
Now when you get towards Delhi for right, you it's there's going to
be these highways and these roads that go through and then on the
sides, that is mountains and plain area that was that if I for you,
I've shown you and I might show you some more pictures,
you just find the place, try to stay further away from the road.
So then you don't get any of the dust and the fumes and so on.
And the sooner you get there, the better position you'll have.
The later you get there, you're going to be trudging through
people and trying to find a place to sleep and he's going to be
tough, right? But again, it's whatever it is, find a place lay
down your bedding, your group might provide it or it might tell
you to take a sleeping bag, they might just provide a rug there God
knows or some there'll be nothing, right? And you just have to find a
place or buy something.
Once Asia time comes in, then you get people together and you do a
Jamar, congregation of Maghrib. And then Asia. And then you do
your subnets if you want to after that, right. You do Senate's after
that. And then you don't do subnet in between you do the tour to
Maghrib and Isha one after the other as combining and then you do
the subnets afterwards, and then you do your waiter and so on. And
then after that there is no specific worship for this night.
You pick your pebbles.
Pick at least 49 pebbles unless you're staying for that extra day,
then you need another 21 but otherwise 49 Pick 5051 Just in
case you drop one to hear the wash them if they're dirty. You don't
have to wash them but you can they only have to be small like
chickpea size. Right? And yeah,
engage in some worship if possible.
And then get up do tahajjud
this night is called the night of Arafah but it comes after our
offer. Usually nights in Assam come before but this one is night
of autofill A comes afterwards. You have to stay there until Fajr
some groups remember this one. Some groups will try to get you
out early. But remember the walk off of must deliver starts are
fragile time. So how can you leave before that you have Mr. Wyckoff
there is dispensation for disabled, sick people to go early.
There is dispensation for that. And for some women, there's for
women, there's a there is a dispensation, but the best thing
is to be there. Okay.
Soon as your time comes in,
what some people do is they start what they don't wait for coaches,
a lot of people just walk to Minar
or to Mecca. If you wait for the coaches, it gets busy and he can
get late. So a lot of people actually will why usually walk
what we do is we start walking beforehand, before Fajr time to
get to before the border and we stop. So we're still in was that a
FERPA by the border.
A lot of people do that. She is still in was the river federal
comes in, we pray for them. And then after that, we do our *
for about 510 minutes. And then you cross the border because now
it's Halloween across the border into Mina. We go to our camp, put
our stuff there rest for a while have breakfast, then we go to
Macau on our terms when we want to. Because that time to go to
Macau is the busiest time. If you try to find taxis or not, they'll
charge you usually costs 10 rails today will cost you 203 100 This
is when they make their money and there's people willing to pay it.
So instead of two pounds and three pounds you'll be paying 50 bouts,
literally just to go and I guess you pay 50 pounds to go to the
airport here. So it's it's like that. It's like London prices.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
he some of his doors that were not accepted in Malta in Africa.
They were accepted when you did I mean was that if so this is kind
of like you're
just in case you still got some more that was left. Do I mean? Do
I mean Was there ever? Like do some doors there?
Have you probably never slept like that on the dust? Maybe not even
in your life unless you like camping
and suddenly you will be under a multi star hotel.
Right more than five stars. Multi star hotel
is really interesting
and a wonderful experience. Okay now as you notice we are on the
10th day of ZiL hedger the morning you've gone from was ready for
what do you have to do on this day you have to do lots of stuff on
this day
the rest of the world is doing eat and exchanging gifts and mashallah
you are busy doing what P S H. Keep that in mind, you're going to
do pelting that's your first job on this day to go and pelt the
shaitaan
the shaytaan to go and pull the shaytaan
until you don't pull the shape and you can't do your sacrifice.
These things have to be in order.
And until you're sacrificing then you can't cut your head
how do you coordinate all of that your sacrifice Most people
nowadays don't do their own sacrifice otherwise near the
European comes is actually sorta houses where you can go yourself
but a lot of people give somebody else to order. And there's all
these banks and other facilities that you can give money they give
you a timeframe when it's going to be done by so add a few hours on
to their timeframe at least just in case they don't get it done
time because you don't want to risk that you've cut your hair
before your sacrifice has been done.
The best places to do sacrifice are the private ones that can call
you. And again I don't know what's going on nowadays but we used to
be in touch with them they would get it done usually by about one
o'clock or something and then we get a call that okay your group
sacrifice has been done we announced it everybody can go and
cut their hair. Why is cutting the hair so important on this day
because everybody wants to get out of Iraq. You've been in Iran for
like three days so far. And you want to be out of Iran now because
you know you're maybe all smelly and
dusty and and so on.
So, get your pelting done as soon as possible. I think if you get
your pelting done by about
we usually the latest we go is about nine o'clock. That usually
is about 656 o'clock in the morning is federal right. So you
can go straight then a lot of people do that. But some people
want to go to avoid the rush because that will be the most
rushed time there. So all you do is go and relax and have breakfast
and stuff in your minicamp then walk from there. About nine
o'clock I would suggest about nine o'clock is a good time. And
and then you come back and cut your hair. If you're once you find
all your sacrifices done, then the only thing you've got left to do
now is the two days of pelting and the toe office era, your main toe
off of hedge and your salary. You still got that left.
So now we're still on that day. As I said you have to do three
activities in order pelting sacrifice and haircut PSH just
remember that
on this day, you only have to pick one shape out you know there's
three pillars you only have to PILT pelt, the big one and you
won't get confused because the two will be empty on that day so you
won't get the wrong one. It'll be the one that everybody's pelting.
So you only have to use seven stones on this day you pelt that?
Stone
Bismillah Allahu Akbar that's what you do. You take the pill
Bismillah Allahu Akbar and you pelt Bismillah Allah Akbar anuva.
Now you can't miss it. It's a big wall. Used to be a pillar before.
Now it's a massive wall you can't miss it.
Don't throw slippers makes no difference. You'd rather say that
shaytaan is so messed up that you only needed a pillar or sorry a
pebble.
Now need a big slipper. People do kind of crazy things down they're
like you shut down you've misled me all my life. I'm gonna beat you
up. This is the way you do it. Bismillah Allahu Akbar.
The pelting time on this day starts after fajr sunrise time.
The other days he starts later. That's why
again, you don't have to do pelting until even if it's so
busy, some women and slower you know like with wheelchairs they go
in the evening after us and it's easier. So you don't have to get
it done earlier. It's just an Your sacrifice will have to get done
later. And then you just have to wait for your
your hair to be cut. That's the only difference. Okay, these are
this big building in between you can see and these are on the right
hand side of the floors. There's like four or five floors they've
made so you can go into any one of those floors but you'll be
actually restricted which floor you can go depending on the road
you take a different roads take her to different floors. And
sometimes they close down the staircases and the lifts. So you
can't just choose where to go. It will be whatever it is
These are the various different roads that are leading into the
place of the shaytaan this is what it looks like now before used to
be a pillar for centuries and now it's become mashallah big massive
wall like the
size of it will be from that door to here. That's how big the wall
is. So before people used to get crushed here because so many
people trying to do it, now it's become easier.
On the left hand side is when he's very busy. Don't from far tried to
throw it because you might not get it. You can easily go in, find a
comfortable spot and then do it. And on the right hand side shows
you a picture when it's not so busy.
Right? I've already explained the qurbani right your qurbani has to
be done now you can go and do it yourself give an order to
somebody. It has to be done in the Haram area. There's some people
they'll say we'll get yours done. They do it in Sudan. That's not
right. You can't do it in Pakistan.
Right even it might be cheaper. You have to do it there.
Now you know your you know your normal, that's the that qurbani is
because you did tomato. If he did the fried you don't have to do
that. Now because you're a traveler, you don't have to do
your everyday every year Corbon you know your Eden eat qurbani
because you're a traveler, you don't have to do that. But you can
still do it. So you can order to there. But what I usually do is my
eat qurbani, I order somewhere else in another country. So that
gets done on my behalf, my eat qurbani even on traveling, I don't
have to do it.
And my hardcore body has to be done here.
Now, of course, if you get it done by somebody else, you're never
going to see the meat. Usually, sometimes what happens is that
they will have it cooked or somebody will own and bring it to
me enough for everybody to eat. Sometimes you're if you're lucky.
But obviously the best thing is to do on if you can.
The company doesn't have to be done on this day, you can do it
the day after. And you can do it until the 12 until the Maghrib on
the 12. But the only delay then is that you can't cut your head and
so you stay in it wrong. That's only difference. So most people do
get it done straightaway. All right, the haircut I've already
explained the haircut to you the same as O'Meara, you have to cut
at least one thing that tip amount, which is like an inch from
at least 25% of your hair. Right.
Once you have done all the rights, you can cut somebody else. And so
there's this fallacy going around that you have to be out of a haram
to cut somebody else's hair. You don't have to be as long as you've
done all the rights. Even if you're still in Iran, you can
actually cut somebody's hair.
Now take a change of clothes and so on and change into that all the
restrictions of the Haram now are over except sexual * you
still that's not allowed stim. Allah wants you do tawaf first
before you're allowed to do that he wants you to come and meet him
first and do the two alphas that the WHA that go off of Hajj.
Okay, because remember, you've done everything right, you've done
the PSH you've done pelting. You've done sacrifice. You've done
your hair cut and you've changed now what have you got left? The
two more days of pelting but you've also got the opposite hand
side after having you
know, with the Office era, go to Maccha and perform the office era.
You can go anytime in the day. Some people prefer to go at night
because it's less busy. So what we used to do is, is sunnah for
Hanafy is to stay in Minot at night.
So if you're going to daytime you should come back by night. For
other methods is watching for them to be in minute.
They have to. What we used to do is we used to spend half the
nights
which means we spent the night we used to leave about 1230 or one
o'clock when we've done most nights we spent our night a minute
we used to find some coaches and go to market and do tawaf it's
quite a quiet time at that time to do in the middle of the night. But
you do it whenever it's convenient for you I've done it at different
times of the day.
And again, you could do this though off until the 12 Two more
days you got until McGraw Hill told you can do it sooner the
better you get it done.
You wish to have a say and not know this though off you'll
probably be out of it. You can be in Iran if you haven't cut your
hair and done your sacrifice but you don't need an alarm for this
one.
However, because it's got a Saturday afterwards, you still
have to do Roman, the marching in the first three.
This aerelon does not require a T bar. You don't even need a ROM
pride so you don't uncover uncover yourself.
You finish it off. drinkers I'm going to say just as you did no
rice the same thing.
Now, you've already cut your hair so there's no cutting hair off to
this one because you're already out
If you want if your hotel is close by and you've been in Mina, you
can go to your hotel and get some stuff if you want to, and then go
back to Mina to spend the night there, right? Because you have to
stay two more days in Mina that night and the next night.
You know, practically speaking, going from Mina to Makkah, for
this tawaf and back. This, this is the time when to find the taxi at
the right price is very difficult. If you're willing to pay 50 100
pound Go ahead.
Otherwise, what we do, we just walk, but not all the time that
I'll explain when we when we do the walking.
And sometimes that transport can take hours, because it's
gridlocks. Everybody's trying to know on this day is on the 12th
day I'll explain that in a bit. Okay, you've come back to Mina
now. And it's the 11th day the day after eat the day after your busy
day. Now these are relaxed days now you'll see that meaner becomes
like a marketplace now sort of people are selling things. It's a
very amazing atmosphere.
People are just enjoying, you know the hedges been, you know, they
just have to only one job you have on this day, which is to go and
pelt all three. So this is the first day you upheld all three of
the Shakedowns.
Okay, usually, as I say, if you're in the European Council take an
hour for you to get there.
You pal the small one first with seven pebbles the same way as I
explained, and then you go to the site and Magdoff there's dua
sunnah to do dua after the first and second one, not after the
third one. So you do that move on to the next one it all in a line,
you can go the wrong way, they usually take you in the one
direction, you do the second pelting. And then you do our third
pelting. And then your pelting is done. So you come back to your
tent.
You go to sleep that night. And now it's your last day.
This is only half a day.
Your pelting on this day is the end on the 11 day starts at dawn
time, by the way, she compounds in the morning, but there are people
who say it's okay to do and they go and do it and they'll try to
take you to do it as well. And we're very strict on that that the
time doesn't begin you're going hedge once in your life, do it
properly. They say oh the coaches are gonna go you will walk it
brother you go with your coach will walk it. On the last day, the
12 day is the busiest day anyway. But to avoid the busyness they try
to not they try to take people out before the door and say Do the
pelting quickly before time they got a fatwa from somewhere. And
we'll just do it. We're very strict on this. So don't do it
now. Wait, of course, some people. What we used to do is we used to
take our we used to send most of our luggage with the coach. And we
said just keep a little backpack so that we could walk it if you've
got your comfortable footwear and you're okay with walking mashallah
and take one hour to the gym a lot. And then from there one hour
to Makkah. And it's a beautiful walk, everybody's walking. That's
our tradition. On this day, once I put my father in a car because he
had to have a car just to go to as easier or no to today. That's
where his hotel was. It took several hours, because there's a
gridlock and they charge you crazy amounts of money. That's why
walking is the best on the 12th village on your last day to go
back to your hotel. If you're if you're staying in as easier, it'd
be very close and maybe like a half an hour 45 minute walk
anyway, as long as you don't take the wrong road. We took the wrong
road. And it took us one and a half hours in this really
excruciating. 10 o'clock in the morning. It was crazy, right? So
make sure you know where you're going. But if you're going to
Makkah there's one direct route, everybody goes there after a pelt,
you go in that direction takes about an hour and mashallah you
get there and Hamdulillah you feel good. So there's only one job to
do the on the Sunday but it has to be done after all. Some people
they walk to the Jabara and wait there in the morning in the late
morning, until it's bizarre time as soon as wartime enters. They do
the pelting. And then the time is right, then they then they leave
after that.
And if you want you know you want to avoid the rush, relax, got to
stay in your Camp Campbell still be there until awesome, then leave
afterwards.
Again, you do the same kind of pelting 777. So that's 21 Du Bois
first two after the first two Du Bois after the last one you don't.
And then that's it. That's your last day done. Now, there is an
optional 13th Day which the Prophet SAW Selim I think state
one a lot of people do. Sometimes your camps will be dismantled on
the 12. Alright, so if you do want to stay for the 13 There's two
ways to do that. You you go towards the Jamaat and you find a
camp there to basically stay in for that night that is still going
to be open so that you don't have to go back to your oven camps
because they
There's gonna be nobody there, most likely.
So you stay close by that night. The next day, you do that final
stoning, you got the time, and then you go. The other option is
that you can go to your hotel, especially if he knows easier and
just take a taxi back to the gym or not the next day on the 13th
day and pelts and just go back. So you can come back for it if you
want to. But it's an optional day, but you get rewarded for doing it.
Okay, what we're going to look at now, just to put things in
perspective, this is a very important chart.
We put this on there. This is a very important chart, because what
it tells you is what particular action and rate is
obligatory, forward or worship or sooner almost perhaps so that if
you miss any of this, you know what you have to do, right?
Because we're getting to the end and you need to know this.
Iran for Omura that's a condition without that you're not in Omaha,
right.
The waffle Amara is a fourth so if you miss that the waffle home Raya
Doc is not fit your aamra is not finished.
The Rommel in the Tawaf is a sunnah, so if you did miss the
marching, your toe off, will still be done. Because it's only sunnah,
you'd be missing the reward, but it's still be done. Okay? The size
of Amara is wajib, which means that if you missed it, you're
you'd have to pay a penalty if you couldn't repay it if you couldn't
go and do it again. But as a way to compensate for it, you'd have
to pay a big penalty. But otherwise, you should go and do
it. It's still a wajib it's lesser than fourth. Shaving or trimming
the head is wajib. So if you finish your Omura or your hedge,
and I've had questions like this, by the way, and didn't cut their
hair they forgot.
Or they didn't think it was necessary. So now every issue
you've had, like if you've used perfume or
you've cut hair or anything afterwards, you're going to be
paying Dum Dum Dum, like you're gonna be paying multiple. So make
sure you cut your head right as soon as possible.
New Iran for hedge on eighth of the hedger, obviously that's a
condition. And I told you're going to put a new acraman for hedge on
the eighth from Maccha itself if you're doing double.
Standing out alpha is a fourth if you missed that your hedges gone.
Standing up misidentifies a wajib. That's why for some sick people,
they allowed them to leave. And if you miss it, you'd have to be a
dumb unless you go back in that time and get it. If you miss it
federal time you've missed it, you'd have to pay at the
pelting the big shaytaan on the 10th is a wajib you've got quite a
few hours to do this. If you completely missed it, then you'd
have to pay a penalty because the next day is kind of pelting us for
the next day.
The sacrifice the double Shaka is also worship, shaving or trimming
the hair, his wardrobe pelleting sacrifice and then shaving in that
order is a separate wardrobe. So if you did all of those sees in
the wrong order, then those would be done but your order would be
wrong. So you'd have to pay a penalty for that.
That the office era that's the main throw off of hedge that is
fourth, pelting the three shaytans all three of them 11 and 12. The
11th 12th day is wajib how many Shakedowns you Pelton the 10th
day.
Only one, right? But on the other two days, or three days up, all
three. Okay. Spending 810 and 11 Tonight in Mina is a sunnah the
way you spend the night tonight. In was the marshal, you guys have
been listening. And there's one thing we haven't spoken about,
which is that the offer without the farewell tour was
that the Office no matter what you do after the office era can stand
in place for that it's wajib except for women on men's except
for women who have started menstruating. They can they
absolve, if anybody else misses it, they have to pay a penalty.
Basically, after you finish your Hajj. There's one more tawaf that
you do as a farewell one before you leave. It should be the
preferably the last one you do.
But if you've done any tawaf after your hedge, tawaf kill stand in
place of it, but you do especially for that.
Okay, let's just quickly go through differences in a woman's
hedge. She does not raise her voice when doing dwarfs and topia,
she does not do ramen. No rush between the green lines when
performing say she doesn't bear her shoulder. She does not shave
her head rather trims her hair.
You know, if a man has zero already, and he's just done
another ombre, then he still has to pass a blade over his head. For
whatever comes off. If a woman has had, for example, lost a heavy dog
as a cape
Chemotherapy, he's got very small air, and by cutting an injury is
going to be then she can just pretend to cut. Because hair is
not some having no hair for him it is not a good thing. Right?
She may wear normal stitched garments of any decent color and
not just white. A lot of women think that they have to wait away
only white in a haram. That's not true. She should not go between a
crowd of men when when trying to beat the black stone at any point
during pilgrimage because it just gets very uncomfortable and can
get, you know,
can get worse than that. Now what I'm going to mention is the most
tricky section for women is that
because of menstruation
there's one thing that she can't do in hajj, what is that?
That the wife everything else she can do auto fall was deadly foe,
stoning. Everything is fine, just throw off. And without the throw
off your hedges and complete that stuff, the office era. So now,
there's some women who
they're going to come on soon, anytime now.
What they should do
is the tawaf time begins after the woof of moose deliver.
That morning of the 10th. Straight from was deliver
straight from was very far off the pleasure, they should go straight
to Morocco.
Forget the pelting
the husband should go with him
and gone to the wharf, get it out of the way, then come back into
the pelting and sacrifice and all of that. Because if you've got
that out of the way you're done, if you don't and your ministration
kicks in, you'll have to stay because you can't go in the midst
of administration on
then you have to stay in and then you have to stay for another seven
or eight days until you finish to do to go off or come back for it.
Go to Medina and come back for it. But you will be you know, you'll
still not be fully out. You'll be out of harm, but you can't be
fully no you Yes, because you're out of the home by cutting your
hair and so on. So you can do that anyway. But until you don't do the
opposite era, you're not fully out of Iran, which means sexual
intimacy still not allowed.
Just quickly before I take your questions, there are four types of
penalties
for doing wrong things in Hajj or Umrah.
Sacrifice of a large animal that's a big one cow or camo, you'll be
set back of more than 1000 pounds for that one.
Usually people don't make that kind of visit. This is only two
things that can make this penalty SEC sacrifice of a small animal
like a sheep or goat, which usually costs 100 250 pounds.
minor infraction saw the cattle fitter
or less than so the cutter fitter by I'm not going to go through
this in detail, but I'll give you a bit of an idea right? The thing,
the penalty for the large animal can only happen in two cases
sexual intimacy after Arafa but before cutting the hair.
So after day of Arafah
the person had sexual intimacy before they cut the hair.
I don't know why anybody would do that. They'd be so rushed did I
not understand but if they did, then they do a camo. Number two,
if a man in a state of major ritual impurity, seminary, defiled
state, no whistle,
he goes in the staff or a woman in menstruation goes into staff that
have to pay a big admin. That's the problem.
It's haram to go and you got a big animal today as well. The smaller
animal.
I mean, you can't remember all this, but at least keep it in
mind. Any form of sexual intimacy will necessitate us one animal. A
man wearing normal clothing for a whole day or whole night or half a
day and half a night will necessitate it.
What else shaving a quarter or more of the hair of the head or
beard before its time, you know, during around covering the face
for a whole day. If you cover it for a few hours, then it's a
sadaqa.
Clipping all the nails of one hand on one foot if you can't just one
nail of the sadhaka. If you've got all five of one hand, that's dumb,
that's an animal, small animal. Applying perfume to one whole body
parts of clothing.
omitting the waffle without
omitting any YG above the hedge and not then going and doing it
you'd have to pay them instead.
If anything omitted is redone, then the penalty goes is dropped.
So the
Got penalties, smaller penalties, shaving or trimming less than a
quarter of the hair of the head or pulling your beard or hair and
five, six strands come off. If one or two strands cut off then it's
the smallest sadaqa like a pound or two.
Clipping one or two nails, like for example is your net Is he
bothering you and your clip that you'd have to base other call, it
might be valid to do it because it's bothering you, but you still
have to be solid go in hajj, any of these infractions. Even if you
do it for a valid excuse except for a menstruating woman to offer
without, you still have to pay the penalty, you might not be sinful
though.
You If a man wears normal clothing or covers his head for a few
hours, that will be sadaqa as well.
The toe awful weather if you perform that without wuhou Because
it's a lesser towel, not the toe off of ombre otoa for Hajj, the
main one, you you pay saw the guy instead of otherwise in those you
pay a double unless you go and repeat it.
If you leave out one stone for your he did six stones or five
stones, then you pay sadaqa for the stone that you missed, unless
you got time to go back and do it.
And the smaller one if you kill one lie, so you pluck one or two
strands of the hair. Or you know when you're doing wudu and you
went like this and one or two strands came out up had minus
other there's always a good idea to give a bit of sadaqa some
people think it's better to also give one animal I mean, you don't
have to if you've not done anything for sure, just ask.
Okay, that often whether as I mentioned already is the last
right. And there are some fatwas that go around that you can't do
any shopping after the offer without.
That's not entirely true. But the truth in it is that the auto offer
without literally should be the last last thing that you do before
you leave. But that's not always possible because of timing wise
and the busyness. So if you did have to go and buy something, you
probably won't spoil your toffee, which is pretty that way. Right?
There's this fallacy that you can't look in the mirror when
you're in a hurry, and that's wrong as well, you can. But the
main thing about HUD you have to remember the professor Olson said
I'll head you allied Jew or third Jew, the Hajj is to be in a
disheveled unkept state that you're not talking about your
grooming, because you're there, what's the whole purpose of Hajj?
I've got these two simple garments on and I'm going from one place to
the next, like a spiritual washing machine being purified by Allah.
And I'm not worried about that's why to be constantly removing dirt
is actually against the spirit of Hajj. Yes, if it's filth, that is
going to be Naja acid, then you need to get rid of that. You can
use unscented soap soap or when you come out of the toilet. You
can't use scented soap, right? You need to avoid all of that.
However, to go in and people take unscented soap for showers, you
don't want to do that. Because you're going against the state of
the unkept disheveled states. You don't want to be combing your hair
during that time.
It's fine to be the way you are. Until you get out then you want to
comb everything because you shouldn't be fully you should be
focused on Allah. You know, when you have something really
critical in your life that's going are you worried about everything
else on that time? No, you're just like, just about keeping yourself
groomed, right.
That's the purpose of it.
Visit to Madina Munawwara is a whole separate lecture, which our
time is up. We're going to take questions first and
about Hajj in sha Allah.
So if you read whether you're in US easier on your hotel isn't as
easy or Omaka
in the daytime, you could go to your hotel, and then come back is
sunnah to spend the night in Mina though. However, if Mina is for
some people who are sick or whatever, then in the Hanafi
Mother, you could even spend it in your hotel if you can't spend it
in Mina for whatever reason. Right? But the problem is I wasn't
doing go he only went for the wife and he came back. So the
preference is to stay there but if you need to go for something, pick
up something then it's fine. Can men and women wear sunglasses? Yes
you can.
They have to be really bad.
Now they can be anything because wearing sunglasses and not
covering your face because they're resting on your nose. They're not
covering your face today is not covering your face. You can wear
sunglasses, yes uncle here.
If you're more savvy, you can pray for namaz you have to you have to
take the discretion. Do color prayers use that time to do color
praise or extra Nephal or Sunnah prayers if you want to. Yeah,
whenever you enter any Masjid you recite Allahu Medallia. Barbra
hermetic is not part of the Hajj scene is a separate sunnah dua for
any Masjid you enter into. You don't have
to do it in if you forgot it, it wouldn't spoil your hedge, but
it's just something you want to do. And you also is a good idea
whenever you enter any masjid, especially Madina, Munawwara
imbecile neighbor, we make an intention for ethic off as well.
So let's just say that you did go off and is mcru time after us. So
you can't do it off the Tura cards first off, that's fine, you can
actually go and do another two off if you want to do or you can do
say, then do that. Then do the target afterwards, after the say,
or in between the save you into his world.
Yeah.
In se you could, in fact, you don't even have to do Sorry, after
the love. You could delay it, you could do it off. And if you're
very tired, I'm not saying you should do this, you can go and
rest and come back to the site is not necessary to do afterwards,
meaning straight afterwards. I'm just saying that just in case.
Best to do it after Yes. Well, in in Saudi, as in other areas, as in
other countries, they pray us some in the earlier time before the
Hanafi time begins, but because that opinion exists in the Hanafi
school as well.
You can take that when you're in such circumstances. As long as you
pay your thought in advance then who is a massage and a massage
chair is basically anybody who's not going to be spending 15 days
or more in Makkah.
For example, if you don't spend more than 15 days or more in any
one place, then you're gonna suffer.
Then you do custom unless you're praying with imam or Jamar, then
you do whatever the man does. So you can't stop after Torah Gods
involve on the Imam and say, Man Mousavian will naturally you know
Okay, it looks like we're done martial. I can't believe that
we've done it in two hours and 30 minutes, I can't believe it you.
That's because I cut it down quite a bit. If you want a bigger
subject, you know, then check the thumbs up go to zamzam Academy
channel, or website, it's got the full hedge seminar that in four or
five sections, listen to that in what do you have gotten a lot more
practical suggests I've not been able to give you a lot of hacks
and things like that. Also, the reason I did this seminar was very
selfish, I'll tell you that. Okay, so don't run away up, I did this
seminar and came all the way down one hour drive. Right? For a very
selfish reason. And that is to get your doors because I've noticed
that I do seminars every and I usually take a hedge group or with
a hedge crew, I get a lot of benefit because I get everybody's
reward. So this time I'm going to request special to us from you
that remember this this this guy who
you know explained all of this to you if you can inshallah write my
name in your list of doors that Allah Tala accept us for the
service and his Deen remove the obstacles and problems in our life
and make us successful and on the deed. Okay, so that's just a
little selfish request for da, right.
I mean, I mean, and I have a public number on zum zum Academy
Contact Us page, if you do run into angels, you can give me a
call. Alright. The point of a lecture is to encourage people to
act to get further an inspiration, and encouragement, persuasion. The
next step is to actually start learning seriously to read books
to take on a subject of Islam and to understand all the subjects of
Islam at least at the basic level, so that we can become more aware
of what our Dean wants from us. And that's why we started Rayyan
courses, so that you can actually take organize lectures on demand
whenever you have free time, especially for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we have on there, the Islamic
essentials certificate, which you take 20 Short modules, and at the
end of that inshallah you will have gotten the basics of most of
the most important topics in Islam and you'll feel a lot more
confident. You don't have to leave lectures behind you can continue
to live, you know, to listen to lectures, but you need to have
this more sustained study as well as local law here in Santa Monica
when I have to live record
