Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim
Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa Salatu was Salam.
Ala say the most serene word early he was off because he married as
soon as it's sunsets, which is barbaric time normally, you're not
going to pray mother. Don't even worry about McRib right now, it
does, it will look strange because you're used to pray MongoDB, that
sun goes down. But here, you just have to delay it, you leave out of
thoughtfulness deliver
it that will be obviously according to your coach, it could
take an hour, it could take two hours. But nowadays, that journey
has become much easier, takes about 15 minutes to your camera.
Before this will take five hours because of the rush in which is
easier to walk in those days.
Walking takes about one to 1.5 hours if you want to do that.
In was delivered you will be given your area is just ground is
nothing on the floor.
Generally, they'll have the women stay together, men stay together,
what you do have sometimes his husband and wives insisting to
sleep together. And I remember last year that women were
complaining that there's this guy who wants to sleep with his wife
by the women's area. So don't do weird things like that. I don't
know if there's, you know, if you want to sleep together somewhere,
meaning just be together.
And you can locate a space, then fair enough, but what I'll tell
you something, you will go to sleep, and you will wake up in the
morning and there'll be hundreds of other people around there. So
where you may have been separate, you'll see lots of people sitting
around you because when as people will keep coming in, they'll just
find a space and they love it. So this is your speaking you may be
sleeping for the first time in open air under the stars. And this
may be the first time you do that. Anyway, you let your bedding out
you and then you get ready for prayer. As soon as Asia time
starts, you're not allowed to pray in Margaret time as soon as Asia
time starts. You will pray Maghrib and Isha together in a short time,
they'll do one of them. And one ecom only. So you will do Aisha a
sorry the Imam will do mockery.
And then he'll finish that without another comment in between he'll
do Aisha prayer. Of course Torah. Karthik is merciful. And only
after that do you do your sin that's of Maghrib and Isha and the
elevator of Russia after that. And then after that you go to sleep.
If you want to do some worship you can otherwise go to sleep if you
need to go toilet, whatever gone get it out of the way right now if
you can, right.
This gives you some idea of out of its way to miss deliver, that's
where you're going. Everybody's coming out of here for either a
fob tominaga 13 FETC Corolla in del machariel Haram that's what
Allah says in the Quran. When you come forth from out of funds then
go to the Masha Allah al haram which is was deliver and remember
Allah subhanaw taala there so there is a goof in history for
that you have to do
that is mostly for the mashallah haram
it's on your way to minute as you can see min as the RFI is here so
you could you can be here you may be anywhere Auntie you could be
anywhere in this area, they've obviously organized it according
to the whose camp you're in. Now, the night this is called the most
deliver nights, the story skyed was deliver nights, probably the
only time you'll be doing that
was deliver is also the place where you pick your pebbles from.
So now your drawstring bag. If you don't have one, you can use a
piece of cloth. You can use whatever you want, you put them in
your pocket in your bag, side pocket of your bag. And I saw last
year people were using their bottles, empty bottles for that.
Go and pick 70 pebbles now you're thinking 1000s Millions of people
picking pebbles at any pebbles left it. There's loads of pebbles
there. You just have to rummage around you'll find small, small
pebbles don't get big ones. It's not gonna hurt shaytaan any more.
He gets up more by small pebbles and it gets hit by big because it
shows how insignificant he is that it just small pebbles and that
works for him.
So you collect about 70 pebbles, a few more maybe just to be safe
the night this night, although you've just left out of that it's
actually called the night of out of
the place is called Arafa the maidin or the plane of Arafat, and
the day is called yo Mara. So that's the difference. Staying
until Fudger
to stay in mystery for all night until Fajr is sunnah emphasized.
That means Can you leave? Well if you leave you have to come back
because to stay there for some time during Fajr time is Rajat.
So essentially, you have to stay there anyway. But this is where
many groups take another fatwa or something
They stay in misery for for a short while at night, 12 o'clock.
And then they take you back to Milan. They want to avoid the rush
in the morning. That's cutting corners. Insist if your group is
going insist on staying in was Ledyba. And then I'll walk over to
Mina, our group, very organized group, but we actually walk from
was delivered to Mina in the morning, because they're too
everybody's going back to Mina, getting a coach and they do have
coaches for the people who are old. They let them go on the
coaches before all the others we just start walking in Fajr time we
pray Fudger In fact, we start walking before Fajr time. And then
when Fajr time comes in, we pray in Mustafa we pray out Fajr and
then after fajr we do our goof there will COVID off in Fajr time
you stand up and you do some dua that's your woof of Mustafa, you
can only do that in Fajr time. And then after you go into the
boundaries of Mina, you're in Mina and within depends on where your
campus and you will be, you will be close to your account. So
try to get some sleep in in your sleeping bag at night. Because the
next day is going to be the busiest day Arafa was in one
place. But the next day is the 10th of Dhul Hijjah around the
world that's each day people are going to be wearing new clothes
and eating sweet things. But for you it's not eight.
Right this is the one year that you're not going to be doing ie
you're going to be doing Yeoman nah, this is the day of sacrifice
and it's the day with the most activities you have to try to do
three or four activities on this day.
Okay, so try to get some sleep tonight in mystery fly in the open
air.
I remember the first year we went there was huge winds blowing so
the dust was just getting in your eyes and that but generally it's
fine with a light sleeping bag it's fine. Wake up before to hedge
tahajud time before Fajr time do some time and then do your fajr
prayer and then do your woof
okay, this is to get you some idea of what it's going to look like.
This is what it looks like
this lights at different places but as you can see, it's quite
dark. This is where your flashlight comes in. My Hunt Group
they actually give everybody a flashlight to take with them a pen
with a flashlight it helps.
Right so it is dark, it's shaded it's dark, it's dark and
the lights are probably by the toilets on post but it's not as
late as midnight as and as you can see people are sleeping mashallah
and he's contemplating. So these are what you call them was 34
Nights.
This shows you a bit more closer. People, even women just relaxing
or getting ready to sleep. These are people sleeping this is how
you're going to be sleeping. Some people will be selling mats like
this if you need a mat there you can buy one people are going to be
making money here but you take your little sleeping bag
I don't think there's any scorpions and snakes and things
like that you have to worry about insha Allah just really adores
this is people are collecting stones. Stones are about this size
or even smaller this is how it is you can use a button if you want
to.
Right was the refer to Mina now now you've woken up in the morning
then you will goof
now some people
they most people go back to the campaign Minar so that they can
rest for a while.
The biggest. Now there are three things you do today.
You do the pelting. That's the first obligation of today,
pelting. Second obligation is your sacrifice.
And the third is your haircut and it has to be PSH remember this,
this will help you if you get confused because it's Weijun to
make sure it's PSH and not SPH or H P s it has to be psh.
Okay,
this is the busiest day because you got this PSH going on here.
What we did was we went back to the camp first. It's about seven
o'clock in the morning, we got to the camp relaxed until about I had
breakfast and relaxed until about 10 o'clock. The biggest rush by
the shaytans is at this time. People are leaving was terrified.
They're going straight to the gym a lot and they pelting that's
where the biggest crushes although now because of five floors and
proper
routes that they've made, it's easier but it's still a lot.
There's no need to go straightaway go and relax. You just had a tough
night and you just had to you know go go to Mina go back to your
camp. Relax for a while. We went after 10 o'clock. You can go after
her it's hotter. Obviously a lot of people used to go after us
because that was the easiest time least crowd and women it's easier.
But as far as I know the first day we went after door sorry. We went
around 10 o'clock if I remember correctly
So once you've done your pelting now on the first day, now this
shows you from was that if you're going into Minar, it depends on
where your camp is in Minar or how fast you get to it, you may be
very close to the Jamar rods, which will make it easy for you to
pelt. But it's that much longer to get there from yesterday for so
it's all a trade off at the end of the day.
Right, these three activities have to be done in order.
Generally, the groups will go together so that they can come
back because they take one of the group, one of the group staff will
go with them, they know which way to go and come back, you don't
want to get lost.
It's a 60 minute walk from the European and US camps. And it's
about two major tunnels you go through. So a lot of it is tunnel.
So they shade and 10 o'clock is not too bad. The whole time is
quite tough.
But Subhanallah you, Ed, you're you're you're encouraged along by
these old people that are dragging their feet and somebody's helping
them. If they don't have a push wheelchair, there's people who are
dragging their feet, they're going at 60 minutes of walking. There's
no cutting corners there. That's how far our camps are. From there.
Right? You only pelt one shaytaan on this day with seven every
shaytaan has to be pelted with seven. And on this first date is
three days of pelting. As you can see we on the 10th day now at the
top
right, that yo would you call it the 10 day eight day.
So the time for pelting starts after failure today. That's why
most people go straight after Voyager. But we're gonna go
dependent whenever your group organizes you to go, you go and
pelt only one shaytaan it's sooner to tell from dawn to learn. But
you can delay it if there's too many people is permissible after
also to especially for women and the elderly.
It is mcru to delay until after maghrib. So get it done before
most people are able to nowadays. But the time still remains until
the next day Fajr. But it's mcru afterwards.
So that's your pelleting for one day.
This shows you now the structure
the new structure. Now, these are the shaytans
they become bigger and taller.
I'll show you a picture of the old shaitan was about this big around
circle and you can casually go there and throw your stone. But
then it became bigger and taller and a few floors, then they made a
wider because there's just too many people before it used to be
circular and you could go in from any side. Going in was easy
because everybody was going in but coming out was murder. You'd lose
your slippers you do because everybody's coming you're trying
to get out, people would die around and that's how bad it
became so and then immediately used to really hype that up
hamdulillah now you have to get in lane from well before you can't
get here and then decide you know what, let me go into third floor
you have to get in lane from before and it's different routes
will just take you on the top floor, middle floor, ground floor,
third floor, fourth floor, there's like five floors there. Now, so
hamdulillah and it's only one sided. Now one directional. So you
do it and you carry on you stop on the side you make dua they assure
you along you move on 100 lives become much easier. This just
gives you this is only two flows, they're showing you that these are
the result, which I'll explain as we go along.
Those are the three Jamara you can see the crowd there you can see
that crowd how many people there on that first day after after is
much less
people are coming in from the side and they pelting.
This shows you the crowds, these other roads that they force you
into the routes they force you into depending on which floor
they're gonna send you on. And this shows you the different
floors when it's calm.
So they've made these massive structures
1234 And then a roof five. Okay, this shows you a much closer up of
when it's busier.
But it's not too difficult. You can still get close enough to just
throw don't stand like a mile away to go bang bang bang I remember I
was there and this all room and cheese. They just and it's hitting
my back like I'm not the shaper
I told her go inside you know you're gonna have to go inside go
from the edge but you have to you can do it.
This is a picture I took last year actually, which was one of the low
periods. And you can see it's there's nobody there. So you can
casually go up there. Of course you don't want to stay there. You
go there you just do your cutting pelting is basically you you kind
of just flick the stones to just show and see you know, like Bang
because that doesn't make any difference to it's a significant
symbolic idea of throwing these pebbles and the pebbles
didn't even have to touch the wall. It just has to fall into
that area. That's what's important. Now, if you're on the
second floor, there's going to be many stones already falling from
the third and fourth and fifth floors. Right. So because the
stone is one, and there's like a hollow around it, and each floor
has its access.
Right now you've done your pelting.
This is the first day remember, you've done your pelting have only
one of them. The big one.
So you've done your What's that? What's that acronym, I said,
P sh, return your p&l. Now sacrifices the complicated one.
And for many, many years, this has been the most complicated thing.
If you're going to do your own sacrifices, that is easy. You can
see it done, you can do it yourself. The slaughterhouse is
the benefit of the European sorta attendance is that is closest to
the slaughterhouses in Mina will say they call the
I forget the name. But they're very close about 10 minute walk
from the European campus. So you can go there yourself. But most
people don't do it themselves, they will give it to an agent to
do and there are in Makkah, there are these offices where you can
buy a certificate, they generally tell you your Ghorbani will be
done, your cutting will be done by this time. But there's always been
this controversy that is really done by that time. And the problem
is that until it's not done, you can't do P S, H, you can't do h
because you have to observe order. So some said it's okay. They said
so there is they're responsible for it. Now you can do as soon as
they say 12 o'clock, then 12 o'clock, you can do it. But I'm
going to now things that become easier. What we had last year was
that we had arrangement with this local Pakistani brothers that stay
there who do this as a business quarterback at halftime, so their
contact with you on the phone, you give them the list and the money
from beforehand. And they will tell you that look, it'll be done
by about 12 o'clock, one o'clock Yoker bunnies will be done by this
time. And then you can they'll send you a text message or you can
contact them on the phone and say no, no, hold on yet. Hold on yet.
Right. And once it's done, they tell you now you can go and shave
your hair. Now you're out of there.
So why is this so important? So you can get out of your home, you
can have a bath, you can put your normal clothes on, you still
haven't finished hygiene yet. But your ihraam can come off.
Everything now becomes permitted except one thing after you shave
your head. So anyway, let's look at this. This sacrifice is called
a sacrifice of gratitude. You only have to do this if you do tomato,
okay Iran, because you've been allowed to do two things.
Sacrifice is worship anyway in the Haram but preferable in MENA.
The normal qurbani that we do every year is a separate thing
altogether. That's based on how much assets you have. But if
you're more selfish, there's no court binding on you. But what you
can do is you can have an extra one done there for you if you want
to as a sunnah or have it done in India, Pakistan or through one of
these relief agencies is a separate thing that can be done
anywhere in the world. But you're done with Shaka for your hedge has
to be done their
sacrifice doesn't have to be done on that day. It could be done on
the 11th. And it could also be done on the 12th until Monday. But
what's the trade off of delaying it? You can't get out of Iran You
can't cut your hair. So that's why most people want to get it done as
soon as possible so they can take a bath and they can feel free.
Although you're still staying in minute
all right, the haircut let's assume your sacrifice has been
done by two o'clock. Now you Where are you now? You've been to Mina,
sorry, you are in Vienna, you've gone to the place to stone. Now
you've come back to your camp. Now the 15 minutes work you've come
back to the camp
and you find out your sacrifices done. Now in the camp you can have
your hair shaved if you want. What some people like to do then is
they like to go to Makkah after that. To go into that hour off to
go and cut their hair, shower up in their hotel and do the top
office era. The Office era is the fourth thing you do on that day.
But it is not necessary to observe order in that I can be done
anytime. You understand that that it doesn't matter when you do
that. Most people do it in the night because it's easier because
a lot of people the heavyweights, they'll go on they do the pelting
they'll go and do their sacrifice or they don't have sacrifice to
do. Because a lot of these are Saudis have just come directly to
out of they haven't even gone to dinner. They just come over to
Ottawa, they've taken a few days of work they're allowed to come
they come in and then they go late and fraud so they don't have to do
sacrifice. They go right to the heart and cut their hair. They go
to the huddle and they quickly do that or they've done it obviously
all they do they say the finish is a very busy. Most people go at
night. Some people go the night after for their special tawaf our
group when that same day at night if I remember
correctly. But either way, you come back to your tenant, you
relax now.
Just the stoning process takes about two and a half hours, one
hour to get there, stone one hour to get back, don't get lost in the
process end up in another camp, it'll take you five hours to get
back. Right really, it certainly happened to me this way I was
coming back from zeal to go to get my glasses made. After after we
done the stoning my my glasses broke there, and I've never broken
before. So I didn't have a second pair. Right. So then I after after
my after my pelting, I'm into Zia and found the optician and got
them to you know, make another pair for me. And then I came back
and I got lost.
Now the haircuts
we've already mentioned how the hair is cut, so we don't have to
go in detail here.
But after the haircut, you can have a bath.
In Mina, you can have a bath take take a change of clothes there. So
that at least you can birthday in one of those nice showers that you
have. Right those ones I showed you earlier. And then you can
would you quit use your soaps and you can use your fragrance and
everything after that. And you put normal clothing you stay in Mina
after the haircut or restrictions of Haram are over except sexual
relations with the spouse only that is still not allowed. If
you're there singly anyway, doesn't matter to you. If you're
there with husband and wife, then it may matter to you. But then the
other challenge, just to be honest, is where
because most people are sharing. And this becomes a discussion,
this becomes a discussion. Especially among the women, it
becomes a discussion. So then what sometimes they do is they'll tell
Okay, we're gonna go out shopping. You know, that's some ways to do
that. It's a Sunday. It's a Sunday. That's why I'm mentioning
it. I'm not being embarrassing, and it's a similar to Him, be with
your wife afterwards. I'm just trying to give you practical tips
on how to be with your wife or we will be with your spouse. But of
course it is a bit embarrassing. How do you guys go and I'll be
here it does is a bit weird, right? But just to summarize, just
to sort of wait until your hotel room.
Okay, now you've done the three things, you've done your psh. Now,
if your qurbani is not gonna take place today, you will have to wait
until tomorrow. That means you can't cut your hair until
tomorrow. You can't change your clothes until the women they have
to stay, you know, they still have to observe their restrictions. And
so do them in
the office era, we're still remember we still tend to stay
have this is the most active and busy day. This is the fourth thing
this the office era doesn't need order, you can do it anytime. Go
to Makkah and perform the office era.
Now if you're trying to go to Makkah for the office era
sometimes the coach and taxi could take hours and hours. Sometimes
people walk it just depends.
When you do go for your to Office era, because you're gonna do
surgery after it you have to do Rommel
in the first few rounds
if you don't have a Brahmin, you don't do it diba
this Tov can be delayed until the 12 Mazuri. Not beyond that.
Complete tawaf as we explained earlier and now do Sorry.
Once you've done your tower office era, now all restrictions are
over. Sexual relations with the wife is now permitted. Right? Go
to the hotel if required to shower and change return to Mina and now
spend the next two nights in Mina is still similar to come back to
me now because you still got two days of Elting left. And they
should be done from Mina. There are some people who cut corner
here stay in Makkah and just go back to the pelting, but they're
missing out on a big sunnah.
Right? This is where I want to mention one thing specifically for
the women, you got a woman who has managed to prevent her
menstruation from starting, but her days are there. They should
take pills from beforehand. You can only take pills for a certain
number of days anyway. Right? So you can only prevent it for seven
to 10 days after it's unhealthy. So let's just assume that you've
done it until seven days. And now you're on the pill and you've
managed to keep the blood away. So you've been able to do all of
this. Now, all hijacks can be done even in menstruation no problem,
the only thing that you can't do is to go in the Masjid Al haram to
do your office zero. And it's the office era is a fault. So you
can't miss it. And then if you're going to start ministration
afterwards, and it's going to stay for seven days and your booking is
in three days. What are you going to do? So now? This is where it
gets complicated. So let's just assume that you have taken the
pill and you are now
you've prevented it until now you're on the 10th in the morning.
You've just come back from misery for two minutes. It could start
anytime.
So forget about pelting. Forget about sacrifice. Forget about
cutting your hair to say you can't do any of those until you do the
pelting anyway. go direct to Makkah.
after fajr from was the diva, go find transport go direct to
Makkah, do it above zero, get it out of the way, then if the blood
starts no problem,
this is just a strategy that you want to use if you think it's
going to happen anytime and from was deliver, don't go to just come
through Milan go to Makkah and just throw it off as soon as
possible. Once you've done your toe off, do you're sorry, even if
it starts inside, it's not a problem. Come back then do your
pelting and everything else and now you're safe.
Now, of course, if it doesn't go according to plan and you start
bleeding, and your medicine didn't help you because what happens with
some women is that they take this these pills, but then they still
start spotting spotting is still considered ministration in those
days, then it gets a bit more complicated then you have to
consult a scholar. That's why it's good to have a scholar with you in
your group. It gets really complicated. I had a friend. The
first time I went is Maliki he needed a Maliki fatwa. So he had
to find the Sudanese tense to find the Maliki scholar in the Sudanese
tense because they will Maliki it took him you know, a few hours to
go there and come back. Now you have phones and things like that.
I personally like receiving calls from people in ombre or Hutch
about questions that they have when I'm in England. Because the
trader the benefit days I give them an answer and then say can
you make dua for me? And they will actually make dua for you. Because
if somebody tells you while you're there to make the offer you
remember it. You told them from beforehand, I say I'll make the
offer you'll forget when they get there.
And I've had people call me from around the Ottawa for in order for
you know, this is what happened, what should I do now?
So you need some access. Okay? Now imagine you've done your tawaf in
Makkah, come back to Mina and stay there 10th night.
All right.
Now all your main activities are finished, the next two days are
relaxed. There's only two things left for you to do now, which is
two days of pelting. That's the only activity there's nothing else
to do now. So the 10th knights starting 11 day, pelting on that
day starts after God not after fajr so you can't pull it off. So
what do you go straight after the 100 There'll be more people it'll
be hot. So go about five o'clock or after us and gone well, it's
quite relaxed after so it's not permissible before noon. Though
there are even people who will take people and do do that in the
morning as well and they'll cut corners there as well.
Most congestion, cooler afterwards. On this day, this is
all three have to be pelted
seven each
first day was only one on this day 123. After the first two you stop
on the side and you make dua, then you carry on to the second one,
your pelvis, then you make dua, then you go to the third one, then
you can't so you just come back then down and you come back to
your camp and relax again down there. Allah subhanaw taala tells
you remember Allah in this time, pre Arab pre Islam Hajj used to be
midnight used to be the time when they used to sit and relax and
compete with each other in poetry. And speaking about how good my
tribe is over your tribe. And remembering their forefathers
Allah says in the Quran, for either 14 out of 13/5 kulula in
the missionary Harami with guru who cannot come and then he says,
First guru Allah can decree Come, come hola should the vicarage like
now remember Allah like you used to remember your forefathers or
even more intensely, this is a very relaxed day. So what
generally we'll have is we'll have some lectures, you will just sit
relax a bit, read your stuff, people will talk. What some people
do is they just sit.
We had, for example, different people presenting the experience
of the hedge and how they think they want to change afterwards.
It's kind of an inspirational thing. You can use it however you
like.
The 12th of the ledger, same thing. The only thing different on
this day is that this is your last day.
Doesn't have to be for most people. This is the last
obligatory Dale pelting. So again, the pelting starts off the door.
So a lot of people because this is the last thing you do and then you
can leave they'll start pelting after dawn straightaway again, you
just wait for a while.
Now you're going to be going close to Makkah because the shaytans are
close to Morocco.
So what some people do some groups do is that they'll take you take
all your stuff with you. So you can go on to the pelting. 5060
minutes away. You don't have to come back to Mina and then go back
to Morocco, or as easier
as easier and much closer to the place where you pick from. So take
all your stuff. You Pelt and then you carry on to your hotel and now
You finish. However, there is one optional. You see, that's the 12.
There's one optional extra day, which is the 13th day. This is an
optional day some people stay behind for one more day of
counting.
It's not obligatory. Few people are minority state. But if you
feel like you want to do that as well then go back to your camp.
And stay then to the next day. The next day though the 13th day the
pelting starts observe is that if you come back to your camp, in
Mina on the 12
Then try your best if you don't want to stay for 13 Then leave
before Margaret. I know in the Maliki school if you don't leave
before mercury, then you are obliged to stay in power for the
30th day for the Hanafi mcru. But if you stay until Fajr and then
you say you know what, let me just go no, I don't want to pelt. Now
it becomes incorrect. It becomes wajib to pelt on the 13th. Today,
for most people, they will just leave after their pelting on the
12th day. All right, that finishes our five days of hygiene. Now, if
you're going to stay there for a lot longer you can do it in
Makkah, if you're going to stay there longer, what do you do? You
do nothing else you can do additional cameras.
How do you do an ombre now?
You have to go out
of jail. Remember I told you that there's the Haram area and there's
the hill area.
All right. Hajj haram you could just do from your hotel anywhere
in the Haram but to do Amara now after Hajj as many as you want.
You have to go out of the Haram area into anywhere in the hill
area. Just out of the Haram boundaries. 15 minute drive, the
taxis will take you the famous lease for this is where I insure
the Allah Juana when she was menstruating before the Hajj, so
she couldn't do it the off. So she had made an Iran directly for
which lots of other people did did Ramadan. She wasn't able to do
ombre. So she felt that she's missing out on Amara so the
promise a loss of center after Hajj with her brother to a place
called the name where they made a nice Masjid now which is called
Masjid Isha. So everybody goes there. And again you got whosoever
just put your head on from your hotel room, get in the taxi. 15
minutes, it takes about 10 yards or whatever you go there.
Sometimes you don't even have to stop there. If you're in a hurry,
you want to do one camera and you want to leave quickly you got a
ticket, you just go into the area and they just drive you back. So
it just go in there making you intention, obviously is best to
get off make sure gods but if you can't do that and you're in a real
hurry, then you just come back going to the masjid do your toe
off as normal. Go into a site, cut your hair. That's your own rhythm.
Right? Otherwise you stay there otherwise you go minute now for
hash tomato just so we understand what each act of it represents
each write represents and if you've missed it what happens? Try
to keep this in mind take a picture of this if you can. This
is a very important list
without looking on the right hand side let's try to answer these
questions that haram of Ramadan what is the afford YG by Mustafa
it's for without you can't do anything. It's the most important
thing. In fact, it's a precondition. Because without that
you can't get into it. So it's like a precondition. The top half
of Ramadan is obviously fourth.
Ramadan in the Tawaf is a sunnah to do Rama Linnet
now the only thing the reason I mentioned in one of these things
that if you miss a sunnah there's no penalty, you lose reward, but
there's no penalty. If you miss Weijun you have to pay them.
Which means you have to sacrifice an animal set you back 80 pounds.
All right. If you shaved your hair in the wrong time you put perfume
on and depending on how much you have to pay them, you could end up
paying $10 It doesn't get that bad generally, but just that's what
I'm trying to say.
So Rommel is sunnah Sati of Amara is Awaji. Shaving or trimming the
hair is obviously watching. New Aram for Hajj is a condition
standing at Aoife is a fourth. Standing in must deliver after
dawn is a word. pelting the big shaytaan on the 10th is worship
the Dumbo Chakra The sacrifices of logic, shaving or trimming the
hairs of worship, pelting sacrifice and then shaving. The
order is also watching. That's an additional logic. If you didn't
observe the audible, you did everything you still have to be a
dumb
unless you went back and did everything in order. If you miss
anything or you did something wrong, you have to pay a penalty.
But if you go back and do it right the penalty drops. But you can't
write perfume. You can only write missed things like this.
The Office era is a fourth pelting all three shaytans on the 11th and
12th is Awaji and then spending the 810 and 11 Tonight is soon as
well.
What happened to the ninth night? Were you on the ninth night?
Exactly. It was 34. Right. And the waffle WIDA This is before you
leave Makkah, you have to go and do a wajib tawaf saying farewell
is called a farewell tawaf.
All right, so that's a word. If you missed it, you have to give it
them. The only people it's allowed to miss it for is if a woman after
her main hedge tawaf, she started menstruating and she has no time
to stay. She can miss this stuff and she doesn't have to pay a
dime. That's the only person though often with that is allowed
for Otherwise everybody has and it should be the last thing that you
do. But sometimes it's difficult.
Right? It should be the last thing that you do. You go in you make
the off and you come out.
Whoever is thinking of Iran, they can take a look at this. The only
difference is really here. This is the same all of this is the same.
After you do set you have O'Meara, you just do another tawaf is
called the waffle Kudu. That's the only difference.
So you do an extra tawaf and of course you stay in a haram
and you can do slightly of Hajj now or you can do it after this.
So you have an option of when to do your study of tawaf when you're
doing Quran, you can do it earlier or you can do it later. You're in
a haram anyway. So you can do it earlier or later. But otherwise
everything else is the same.
And if fraud is the most simplest one anybody doing a fraud
now let's move on.
If fraud is just that doesn't have an ombre when you go in you do the
offer could Doomfist which is a sunnah tawaf that's the only
difference.
Okay, just to recap for the sisters, the differences in a
woman's Hutch. She does not raise the voice when reciting Tobia.
No rumble. And she doesn't have to rush and run between the green
lines inside.
She doesn't shave her head at all, ever. She just cuts her hair.
Now, if you come with a question that if she's got so short hair,
like short cropped hair, then what's she going to? How much is
she going to cut? I to be honest, I don't know the answer to that
yet. I'll have to find out. Never had that question posed to me and
she can wear no such garments. She should avoid going in between
crowds of men and greeting the Blackstone or any point during the
pilgrimage.
I mentioned the menstruation issue and the office era first to go and
get it done.
Otherwise, you'll have to wait for tawaf.
Alright, let's quickly have a quick survey of penalties. Now one
thing that you have to remember the rule,
any mistake that you make, whether it's purposeful or by mistake,
accident, or purposefully or out of forgetfulness doesn't matter,
you still have to pay the penalty.
The only difference it makes is that if you did it purposefully,
you will be sinful as well, you will spoil your hedge. And if you
did it by mistake, then you won't be sinful. But you still have to
pay the penalty. So the penalties are there regardless, right. Now
there are four types of infractions or contraventions and
violations and they each have a different penalty. The big one,
where you have to pay for a camel or cow. You know how much that's
going to set you back? How much is a cow or a camel cost nowadays?
Minimum 1000 pounds, right? The minimum of 800 to 1000 pounds is a
cow.
Camel is bigger. Now, there's only two ways you can do this only two
ways and you can't do those by x. I don't know.
There's only two ways you can do this. But anyway, number two,
which is
sacrificing a small animal number two type of penalty in which you
you have to sacrifice a sheep or a goat. It's about 80 pounds, your
Corbon is there you're you're done is going to be about 80 pounds.
And number three, a more minor type of infection is Southern
southern equal to southern counterfeiter amount, which is
like two pounds, a handful of wheat, that kind of thing. And so
the cholesterol sadaqa, feta amount is just like a small
handful of wheat. Right now. Each of these we're going to check in
separately. Penalty number one. These are the only two possible
ways to have that penalty.
One is
sexual relations. You did Arafa but before cutting the hair
before cutting the hair.
People had sexual relations. That's a major contravention.
You're not even out of a home yet. So you'd have to pay a camel or
account.
But as these are hardly ever going to occur unless somebody is really
serious.
Number two, going into the masjid and performing the office zero, no
any other door, the office era, without also
in a major ritual state of impurity. This can only happen in
two ways. The man is in a seminary defiled state in need of hostel,
and he goes in. Why should he do that? Go and take a hostel, it's
easy, the more like, most likely scenario is for women, they need
to go, they need they've got a flight the next day, they've come
menstruation, what are they going to do? So it's haram for them to
get into the Masjid. But if they do for whatever comes into mind,
they do. And they do throw off that off will be valid, but
there'll be sinful, and they'll have to pay this penalty, the
smaller animals, any form of sexual intimacy with one spouse,
kissing
any anything,
a man and of course, any other even if it's not with the spouse,
that's even worse, right? It doesn't mean that if it's not with
a spouse, it's allowed. That's even worse.
A man wearing normal clothing for a whole day. So if you went normal
clothing for a whole day, not for a fraction of the day, that would
be different. If you wore a normal garment for whatever reason, right
for the whole day, or whole night, or one half day and one half
nights, so about 12 hours, the Caribbean approximately, then you
have to pay the big penalty. Shaving a quarter or more of the
hair of the head of beards is less than a quarter, it's a lesser
penalty, if you shave more than a quarter, then covering the face
for a whole day. If it's covering for half a day, then it's lesser
applying perfume to one whole body parts. So if it's just a bit on
the finger, then there'll be less. But if you put it on the whole
palm, then it's a dumb.
Now you're not going to put perfume on your whole palm. But
what you might do is you might get nice fragrance soap and put it on
your both arms. So then it's going to be a dumb because it's going to
be a full palm
clipping the nails of one entire hand or foot, not just one or two
nails. So for example, if you had a problem with your nail, and one
of them was a bit split or something and you have to cut that
one, you still pay a penalty but not a done because it's one nail
on the example
missing any wajib
but the only benefit there is that if you miss a word gem, you can
actually go back and do it. And your your penalty will be out.
Also for the woman in the previous one.
If she went and did the office era, in that state of
menstruation, she has to pay the large animal. But then for some
reason she waited and then she went back and did it in a pure
state. That will also be canceled out as well. But the whole reason
she went in the first place is because of her desperation.
Okay, the number three a che mi where you just get so the cattle
fitter amount shaving or trimming less than a quarter of the hair of
the head, plucking or trimming three or more strands of hair.
Clipping one or two nails, just read it through. Applying
fragrance was small parts of the body of clothing.
Wearing clothes for a few hours,
leaving a single stone out of the way you only did six.
What happens if you go there and you've dropped your stones and you
don't have enough stones? What do you do?
Can you just pick someone from there? You're not allowed to pick
up from there because those are considered rejected ones you're
not allowed to pick those up just as something if you've got a few
extra stones, and generally people do but don't don't depend on that.
You have people who unfortunately they go for their first and ever
Hajj and they're so messed up that they miss some of these things out
that do not seem to apply to their rationale.
I had one guy who told me his father went for Hajj and refused
to cut his hair.
He just did everything and you refuse to cut his hair. It's
telling me to watch if you can't come out of the haram. If you
haven't cut your hair, you're in Iran. So every violation you do
does a stacking up on you. Because it's symbolic thing. Allah knows
what's in my heart.
So why did he tell us to do that in the first place? If he knows
what's in your heart
is to show you is it really in your heart the fact that you can't
do it outwardly just because you don't want to mess your hair up.
That means you got a problem with your heart. We think so it's all
about the heart. I believe in Allah in the heart. He doesn't
have to do it. I was like shocked. One hatch and the only charges
done by that time. So don't be crazy like that. This is a time of
full submission.
Okay, the fourth one which is a minor infraction is if you plucked
Just one or two hairs when you're playing with your beard or,
or your hair or your washing and one or two drop one or two hair
strands come out, then weave in sometimes they have a lot of hair
shedding, then if it's just the two strands then you give them
some sadaqa. If it's more than that, then they have to pay the
two pounds. This is like a pound that's two pounds, three pounds
surround that. It's always a good idea to do a bit of soccer even if
you think you haven't done anything, just to make sure.
All right, our visit to Madina Munawwara very short. The
messenger SallAllahu Sallam declared Madina Munawwara to be
sacred as Ibrahim Arneson declared Makkah there is no way you can go
there and not go to Makkah province. I'm sitting wherever you
will comes and doesn't visit Medina. It's a massive
deprivation. So you want to go to Madina, Munawwara and where maca
has majesty where Allah has majesty and might is an OR is in
display. People are much more harsher there in general is a lot
more heat. The Madina Munawwara is totally the opposite. People have
been there they should have experienced that Medina other
people are gentle, more relaxed is just much easier to deal with them
and everything is just more slow and relaxed. Makkah is mashallah a
powerhouse. Madina Munawwara is different as soft power. Maca is
hard post the Majesty of Allah. They're on full display the Kaaba
is there. Can you imagine what kind of digital the yards are
coming there? Whereas in Madina Munawwara is Rasulullah sallallahu
Sallam soft Rama and mercy that's dominant down there. So
the Prophet sallallahu Sallam he made Madina Munawwara special.
It's good if you can while you're in Madina Munawwara to be on
Saturday to go to Masjid Kuba, not the one in Hackney in Stamford
Hill, the real Masjid Koba and you get a reward for going there on
Friday like reward for Amara, because I've always I wasn't used
to visit it on Saturday, Saturday. It's very close, you can get in
taxi and you can go generally your tour operators should have put on
Ziraat for you. The main places in Medina, the main places in Makkah,
they may have done that already for you, they'll take you on a
coach, they'll take you the brother, and they're sorry. And
they'll take you to different places.
Okay, this is to get you to understand this is the masjid as
it currently stands.
As you can see this population all around the main hotel area is
here. When as the main hotel we I talked about the Hilton, the
Oberoi, the
other famous ones, right. Some people, they have hotels here,
here, here, genital Bucky is here, this is the graveyard, the best
place to stay was here. You could literally get into the machine in
two minutes. But all of this area is broken, all of this is broken,
new structures are going to call that place was called under
OBEDIA. That's where we stayed and the first one and it was
beautiful. And then goes, you just walk two minutes, you're in the
masjid. And the graveyard is right next door as well. For the women,
the women sections because are here, there. And there.
So if you're here, it's very easy, you can go in and go there or go
there.
All right.
However, this is where you give salaam, this area here. That's
where the promise was buried. So there's three times in the day
where they open that up for women and men have a small section, but
they allow the women so the women will go in from here, then they
make the special passageways curtain off. And the women go
through there and they take you in by which area you're from. And
that's where you can't have your phone with a camera and so on. And
you could be waiting for two hours. Sometimes that is quite
difficult, but you don't have an option. That's what you have to
do. The other option is that you can come into your salon from
outside. But it's not as good as going in there. For women, for
men, it's open 24 hours
used to be open. They used to close in two hours at night. But
when King Abdullah became that he says 24 hours. So the best times
if you want to any we will carry on. I'll explain this. You've seen
many pictures of this.
You know the famous eight days of Medina that everybody wants to
stay. Have you heard of that staying for eight days of special
virtue? Well, this is what it says. The person who offers 40
prayers consecutively in my Masjid without missing any prayer in
between will secure immunity from the hellfire and will be saved
from tremendous and from hypocrisy. And you know how hard
that is?
You You're there for nine days.
But not everybody is going to be able to do this. Because you have
to get the prayer with the technical ruler. The first
technique there were five
us, only one of us did it, even though every one of us was trying
for it.
So it's not like we slept, or we missed prayer or we can't bother.
Let's go and eat. No.
We'll do. You broke your woohoo at the last minute. Salad is about to
stop, I have to go to. That's what happened to me once. It's a matter
of special talking and there's only one and I believe he's the
best of us. Because I know he's the best of us, inshallah. He's
the only one who made it all through eight, right, but there
was one salad I messed up on, I had to go forward. By the time you
go forward to there, it's 10 minutes, because it's not just
around the corner, you have to go down. And most of it, they look
after the toilets, or they keep them very clean. There's workers
there 24/7 just wiping cleaning, wiping cleaning, but heavy smell
of detergents.
Number one, number two, the place between the grave. And the pulpit
of that green roll the area is supposed to be a piece of Jannah.
That's a piece of Jenga, and you got 2 million people that you can
imagine everybody wants to get in there.
Now, this is that green area, he's got the green carpets. That's the
pulpit. The real pulpit is actually here. So between this
area and that area is the real area, although they've extended
here,
the best times to go
about 10 in the morning. My main Saudi people stay up at night. And
they sleep in the morning because of the heat. So if you can get
yourself up early and nine, and you go there, you're more likely
to get in and the other one is around one o'clock at night.
Because the big rush is after Isha, then people have gone out to
eat. So one o'clock at night when others are outside, you try to get
inside, otherwise, you'll work your way through.
I have a friend who made friendship with one of the gods
there. So that whenever he goes the guy lets him in. But you can't
do that. He can't do that with everybody. Okay, now what's going
to happen is that
your main thing in the masjid is that you're going to go and give
Salam to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
For that you have to either come through the masjid if they haven't
caught in the area of go through Barber Salon which is the direct
corridor. So for example, if I can show you here,
this is the genital bhakti
these are some shops here and this is the masjid courtyard. This is
where the green dome is and the professionalism is here. So, this
is the layout of the road. This way is Qiblah. The green dome is
above this the green dome is above this. You come in from here this
is the this is called Babu salaam, but in Medina Barbosa, you come in
from here, this is the road so you don't go in the road, you go
straight. When you come here, this is where you give Salam to the
person with whom he's buried in here.
The part of Jana is this part here.
Right. But these pillars as you can see these numbers 1234 They
all represent special pillars by which you can pray Salaat
right, getting into this area is quite difficult. Getting here is
extremely difficult. But that's not where you give salam from you
give salaam from here and they move people on the move people on
the move people on so you can really stand there for a few
minutes, a few minutes few seconds, especially when
especially we just move you out. And even if there was no rush,
there's some guys that they just get irritated that you are
spending too much time doing better.
That's a big frustration. They have this complex of why do you
come so many times. They have a different methodology and a
different belief industry. Whenever you come here and you
will give.
So
the etiquette is the same as any Masjid.
Just walk respectfully. Just think about the promise that listen, and
know that he is going to be listening to you. Because he hears
what you say there. That's our belief because he's alive in his
grave prophets. Great. Martyrs, as I mentioned in the Quran, don't
die. They die of mortal death, but they're still alive. And prophets
have even a greater sense of life. Of course from here, when we say
salawat on the books, a lot of sermon Angel takes when you do it
from the angel sorry that he hears it himself. If you're very lucky,
the one of one among a billion you might even hear a word equals
Salaam. I've never had that. But I heard it before I've read stories
about but last year, not last year, but four years ago for ombre
a friend of mine was a wife's a convert. They moved from America
to Madina Munawwara he said we we'd gone for the islands and then
The next day he says, you know, my wife was crying all night.
And then she said, you know, yesterday we went for the audits.
I said Salaam and I heard y equals. Now I don't know what she
heard, but she thought she heard it from the grave. And that for
her made a few very good hamdulillah it could be right
because it's a possibility. But it's not going to happen all the
time. How long do you stand there if you have opportunity, the shoe
they say you stand there as long as you can talk to the proselytism
and say salaam on him. Once you kind of lost for words and
everything, no point they're standing awkwardly go away, and
come back later.
Because I just always wonder what's the other boss standing
there? How long so I found this in our shakes work, he said, you
stand up as what's the best way you can make them? What the shake
says is that that is the place from where a pseudo LaSalle
awesome used to send the delegates of the Sahaba around the world for
dour purposes. Now, one of the best things you can say is Oh
Allah, your messenger SallAllahu Sallam used to send the Sahaba to
different countries around the world. For the sake of Dawa.
Accept me for the service of your deen as well accept me in whatever
capacity it is. Let me go back and be able to work with your deen as
well. So you give salam then you turn around, face the Qibla and
you make your DUA. Generally you don't make dua facing the road.
And they will really be after you if you did that. You turn around
and you face the Qibla and you make your door so you move in into
that recess there and you can make dua download there's no problem
with doing that if there's space.
Now this is the way you give salam.
The prophets of Allah Islam is buried in this area, this
represent how they buried the first on the closest to you is the
Prophet sallallahu sallam, then Abubaker then Omar, I believe, I'm
not sure if this is accurate, in terms of exactly how, what you do
is you will walk this way. You will come in from here, then you
stop here. This is larger ring. The ring is much bigger. That's
where you know that's where the prophets a lot of settlements. So
that's when you will stop and you say Salam wa salatu salam ala
Rasulillah salat wa salam ala aka Habibollah and you got this long
dua you can read as long as you know, you can read for them. Then
you move a few steps and you come to this one, this will go back to
the headers and this is where Amara, the alarm said, That's why
they've made it here like this. And like this.
If you look inside, you're not gonna see anything. People think
they look inside and see the grave. You can't there's a wall,
which is from 1300 years ago, there's a wall and you can see it
here. This is a wall the inner wall surrounds the three graves,
there is a small dome over it that you cannot you and I can't see.
Then this is the other wall which we which if you looked inside, you
will see this outer wall which is in this strange shape. The green
dome is on top of that. And this gating. This grill here is outside
of that as well.
So if you look inside, you'll see this wall and they sometimes have
a cloth over it so you think it's a great but it's not a grave that
nobody can see. The only access is through a small window in the
first dome and then the small dome so nobody gets access to the grave
itself. They shut that I think in Omar Abdulaziz this time long time
ago.
So what happened a lot of people try to get look inside I want to
see the grave. And the gods sometimes you say okay, look
inside, there's nothing or sometimes they get angry, but
there's nothing in there. What's wrong with you.
This is the Bucky graveyard totally
cleaned of any kind of marks as to who's where they really get upset.
There are these enclosures that most likely this one here is where
the family have a formula either this one or this one. And then
there's some great people buried here and then there's some buried
here so you kind of just go in and you do your Salat and your Salam
and fattier on the on the
you can go it's open for men. Most of the day women are not allowed
in there. They can just do it from the side here.
This is Mount
if you want to climb up this I believe I've been there. This is
where the police Lawson's body was taken during that chaotic moment
in battle of Oregon. When they fought he passed away when he was
wounded. He was taken into this cave. I been in that cave. But
this is where your group will generally take you. This is where
the battle of sorry, whether martyrs of or the hands out of the
human spirit. And these are the hills around where the battle of
art took place. So you will go for zero day. Right? There's lots more
to see in Madina Munawwara
and this is just for us to again, contrast with the back
How beautiful is that? 1951 I believe
this casually walk around
all the structures inside
get off the plane just walk through.
That's how it used to be before just these sharp like shades
around. This is before Ottoman times I believe this is probably
the early Ottoman times maybe. These were four men, Rob's
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki and somebody when they used to have their
different prayers, they're different times sometimes, but you
can see it's quite casual. And buildings just start right there.
Time Rasulullah sallallahu and there was no Masjid here. We're
just houses there to go through the gullies and then the clearing
in the middle that was where the Kaaba was.
There you go small shaytaan Coca Cola right there 1951 National
Geographic
so Coca Cola has been there with the shape on all along
but Subhanallah just just look at how casually the religious like
relaxing down they just throwing their stones this Coca Cola
available there as well. Mashallah, now it's totally
different.
This was well of zamzam. How it used to look. This is the real
well, this is how the structure was and this is how you could go
in and you can there is a museum in Makkah
is in Miguel Medina.
Medina, or is it Maka? There's a museum of the old artifacts so
they've got the old well of zamzam surroundings and all these things.
It's near the cloth is near the Kaaba cloth factory
this is Maqam Ibrahim the old one
it's different now.
That's how it is now Mashallah.
But I have to say Medina is awesome. Makkah is awesome. I've
been to the Vatican 50,000 People St. Peter's Square. But this is
something different. I've been into the Pacific, I've seen all
that. But this is a different thing altogether. Of course, this
is mashallah Big Ben now.
This is how it's supposed to look eventually.
But this is what you have to do.
To us. That's so beautiful, isn't it?
That's ends our journey.
And inshallah it will be helpful, the practical tips and so on when
you get there. That's why my only motivation for taking my Saturday
and doing this is so that you will remember me if one of the points
that I mentioned come to mind when I'm there and you remember me in
your two hours, that's my major request, because that's the best
thing that you can give. Now, Inshallah, we'll just take a few
questions. If you have any questions, please send them
forward. Are ladies allowed to change clothes,
pajamas, underwear during Hajj? Absolutely. They're free to change
clothes as they want. The only thing as I said is that the
clothes they change into, cannot be scented. So you have to make
sure that you use unscented.
You remove all the scent from your clothes before you go that you're
going to use there.
Are we allowed to expose hair during a haram in presence of
other women? Example For widow and sleeping? Yes, you can. You can do
that. But be careful because even the women's tents, they're not
fully 100%. Sealed there are you can say openings within the flaps.
And sometimes a husband will come in to look for his wife. So this
happened last year, there were women who were just casually taken
off the air. I'm thinking it was okay. And other women were saying
you can't do that. Because
men come in sometimes, you know, unless you put a guard on the door
and say Nobody's allowed here but it's supposed to have that up
yourself. So but of course yes there. There is no religious, it's
not going to break you around. Let's put it that way.
During study when facing agile us whether I'm saying Bismillah but
you raise your hands like the wolf, you don't you don't have to
do that, necessarily.
When do you make Nia for demo Shaka?
The fact that you've given it delegated somebody to do it for
you, is unique. So when they do it, they're doing it on your
behalf. If you're doing it yourself then you make the near
that I'm slaughtering this for the machine to do it yourself. I'm
staying in Morocco for 17 days altogether, including the 100 days
Am I considered a resident if you're staying for less than it
because out of that five days are going to be taken in Mina Arafa.
According to the opinion that I follow, you're still a massage
because you're not 15 days in maca, maca, Mina and everything is
separate. Although now many Allamah are saying it's all the
same. Because maca has
their own, and they expect all of these things to have been
swallowed up by Maccha. But that's still according to the Hadith,
etc. They still separate areas so many of the Anima decide to still
keep it separate so I still follow that opinion that you're still a
Musa unless you're going to stay in Makkah itself for 15 days
before Hajj.
For those that are travelers from Heathrow through Lufthansa airline
stopping at Germany can you put them on at Heathrow Pete Pretoria
got to the airport but delayed it haram intention and to the second
flight boarded. What is it haram intention have to be with the
salaat we have a one hour stopover in Germany. So okay, you can pray
the Salah in advance but it's best to pray Salah just before the Iran
intention. And since you can make wudu in Germany or in the plane,
and then you sit down and then you do your salad sitting down in your
cars knuffel Prayer it's a Sunnah prayer anyway. So you can sit down
and do it. So I would suggest you do it like that. But you can make
it from beforehand if you want to from Heathrow. What is the
significance and meaning of doing tawaf, anti clockwise? What is the
significance of going around the Kaaba seven times what our what
does each circle represent? I don't know what each circle
represents. But generally the maturity in anything is seven. In
Islam, we have seven days we have seven heavens. 777 is a very
important kind of number. It's more than three more than four,
but it's going around in love Allah, Allah subhanaw taala. How
many times? Yeah, how many times? Well, you could you could say just
do it as many times as you want. It's a no, let's make it organize.
seven by seven to seven is a natural number that is kind of a
maturity number. The second number after that is 40. That's why you
see lots of things are 40. So it's three, seven and 14. So it's the
significance in that.
Can you mention that the food courts in Saudi are not all halal
or authentic? I didn't want to bring that up, because it's a very
complicated issue. But since you've asked the question, the
problem with in Saudi is that a lot of the meat unfortunately
comes from Brazil. And the scrutiny over its processes are
not very, it's not very, what you call it particular. So
I would suggest you ask the island you're with if you really want to
be scrupulous, this is what I do. I go and find out is this ability
meat. Is this local meat. Is it Saudi meat? There's one store that
is definitely right, which is the fucking chickens dosage, dosage is
fine. But eventually you might get tired of eating dosage.
Your best bet is to ask the hotel whatever which meat of this is
local meat and not mustard not imported. So it gets a bit
complicated. That's why McDonald's and all that gets a bit
complicated and
a lot of people think hello and McDonald's let me go and have my
Big Macs because I kind of am in England or my burger king
anything camel they would be Hello obviously.
For any John anything coming would be Hello because they it'd be
local camels? Can you do your DUA in English and ask for
forgiveness? Absolutely. Best was done in Arabic. But then beyond
that you do your own personal do as an English if you want to
how to control long hair in a haram sin the products to help
that situation?
Well,
you just do your best you can tie it if you want to ponytail, if you
have to.
The main thing is that you're only going to have to stay away from
washing you with shampoo for the eight the night, two days, the
10th You cut it so two and a half days. Then after that, it goes
off. And it's actually good to increase your hair. So when you go
there, you can cut it off. So don't get a hair cut before you
go.
Right it's better to have it cut there. Okay, wearing a home from
home or on a plane or terminal direct flight, which is more
rewarding.
The longer you're in Iran is more rewarding. As long as you're not
going to have any contravention. The longer you're in a home the
better.
My mum follows a Shafi method where can I find out more detail
look for a Sharpie flipbook reliance of the traveler or the
Maqasid of NaVi. They should have that in there.
There's also a website online I forget what it's called on Shafi
fit condition, have more information.
Whatever you do find that different from what I said, then
let me know so I can incorporate that as the Sharpie points of
view. I only mentioned what I knew, but there may be some other
points.
Prefer to a new era last year's one doesn't make a difference.
It'd be probably if you had a nicer one from last year. It's
probably a waste of money to buy another one. So yes, we're the
last the last one. I'd rather
I have an acolyte of I've done many hedges in. So that's it's it
has more value, more sentiment.
Is there more reward for fasting during the days of Hajj? No. In
fact, the only time the prophets Allah or some didn't foster an
offer when he was in Hajj. So generally our offer is a virtuous
day for fasting outside, but in hudge, because you're going to be
busy and RFI, and it's going to, if you get hungry, it's going to
stop you from doing your dw, etc. is better not to faster.
Minnaar campaign was deliver what's the ruling for time limit?
You've just missed the cinema. But it's there's no sin on it. There
are some camps that are overflowed into Mustafa. And it says clearly
that this is the boundary of Minar. But that's fine. If you
can't help and that's where you are, what are you going to do?
Unless you want to take your bedding and just go and sleep on
the road? And you will see lots of people sleeping on the road?
Have a debt for a specific time period. Do you still need to get
permission to pay early than that date? Agreed? No, not necessarily
as long as you're going to be able to meet those deadlines
afterwards.
Nephal hutch, should I could I intend on behalf of deceased
father yes, there's two ways to do that. You've done your hedge
already, then it's permissible for you to do hedge on behalf of
another person. Then there's two things one is you do your own
hedge but you give the reward to someone else. The other one is
that you do a hedge on behalf of the other person so your intention
is I am doing Hijra on behalf of my grandfather or my this or that
person. double penalty of Quran you do any mistake you just have
to pay to if it's a dumb you pay to them's with sadaqa you pay to
sidecars simple. Shell if a person never been Hara never been haram
should they perform ombre to include the further Amara with
Hajj. They can do the Amara, anytime he doesn't have to be
before they do the hedge first and they do the homework afterwards.
The Blackstone touching technique. Well, you have to not everybody
can do that. But this is what I do.
I will position myself in that direction.
The haram thing is to push people out the way I'm not gonna push
anybody, I'm just gonna stand. Just make sure I'm comfortable,
make sure my glasses and everything are fine. And I'm going
to let everybody from behind wants to go there, they're going to push
you.
Right. So you're just they're being pushed along.
All right.
Now, as I said, when you get close,
you could be flung out because there's pressures from all sides.
But that's where you just have to brace yourself and keep it in the
right direction.
And then you will notice that suddenly, as you get very close,
everybody will be flung away from it. One guy is trying to go from
here, another guy's trying to go from here, third place is going
from here, they're all gonna get flung back. It's just the way the
power works. Right? you seize the opportunity, go and grab it. And
you quickly, quickly otherwise pull you out. Right, you quickly
go and give it a kiss. And you just move on getting out is very
difficult. That's where you lose things. Because people are then
trying to go in and you're trying to be a one guy trying to get up.
So it's not easy for everybody, but it's worked from your handler,
sometimes it'll take me
last time, it took me literally less than two minutes, just the
way it worked. I just went in there. Now I was waiting. I went
in the machine, I've got Chris that came out. The second time, it
took a bit more stability, you know, being stable and standing
there. But again, the other way is better, where you find the right
time.
I won't do this all the time. I only do at least once just so I
get my case. What's harmful is to push people out the way and like
go in and you know, like, throw people don't do that.
But our flow is heavily perfumed, how does it affect your firearm?
By the time people's feet are gone on there, I don't think you worry
about the perfume anymore. Because if there was any perfume there,
people walking over it, they've taken it already. So unless you
can definitely smell. And again, if it's just a part of your foot
is a sadhaka if it's the whole foot, then it's done. It's done.
We'll go for Mr. Leader do we stay until after sunrise? No, the woof.
You don't have to send it after sunrise. You only have obliged to
stay for some time of Fudger time, then you can get out before
sunrise. Is it better to break up or sooner while on our hatch trip?
How about when we return? Of course. I'm just saying that
because you're in a religious state to down and you have lots of
time and you're wondering what worship to do. It's my
encouragement is my personal encouragement that get your color
out of the way estimate how many solids you've missed in your life
from the time you become mature. Because one of the your ways to
recovery and get close to Allah and get out of anything wrong is
to remove the balance of prayers we miss. Very important.
Is it better to do the PSH and tawaf on 10th or
split over two days, it's up to you. The I think the process and
did everything on the same day, if I'm correct, generally most people
are able to do that it's not difficult to do that, especially
now that they've enlarged the pelting area.
Where do you pay sadaqa you can give it to any poor person
yourself. Or if there's any other person in the area or you find a
local person that knows someone, you'll just have to figure it out.
If you return home without paying sadaqa you send it later on, you
can send it through someone else somebody else is going for
Amarante you can do that.
It has to be the sadaqa has to be given there. I did want to mention
to you safety aspect
in our hedge last time in 2001 Somebody with us lost $2,300 How
he lost it
it was a because one person was doing all the pain as a as a
collective he was paying and then we pay him back what happened is
this person had a tight a haram on
with a belt, the money was in the belt zipped then he had two or
three folds of a haram on top so he thought no problem a mistake he
made was he should have left it in the hotel safe don't carry money
with you except the little bit you need is the biggest lesson from
this they are professional people
and I believe the best place for them to pick pocket is around that
our
because it's such a crush them there's no way you can find out
I'll tell you how they do it as well because I did some research
on this afterwards. So this person he didn't check his money all
through Minar finished out of finish was verify that the pelting
on the first day then he remembered he's got some solder
company in there as well and he saw some faux pas then I need to
start paying yourself I'm going to finish them
he looks zip is open money's gone.
He'd made the offer sub the day before in our offer quite an
intense suburb dua. He had no problem. He was quite calm about
it. But it was the loss of his phones helped him out timeouts.
But they are professional. The way they do it is this the only will
always work in pairs or groups. So what they do is they'll come
and they'll just tell you
what they'll come even if it's out on the street Oxford Street
wherever they'll come and just tell you
what happens if you're carrying valuables and somebody just as
your what do you do
your your your hand goes to where your valuables are, like that's
why I've always made it a habit that if I'm checking my phone, I
always check a few other things now as well. So like
and then and then what I'll do is the part where I've got nothing
I'll say
especially if I'm carrying some values. So one guy will just said
you the other guys watching you now he knows that your money is
here.
So of course in the Haram everybody knows where your money
is.
So they come next to you and they just pull down. Stand next to you
can't feel you everybody's pushing around you you're pushing around
how you're gonna feel them and they open it up. So cut proof
doesn't mean that they can't go you know that they can't open it.
That's why don't carry too much money with you.
Of course you can use ATMs for small amounts of money you want or
if you are taking some cash put in the hotel safe. That's that's a
big, very important. Is Vaseline allowed? Yes unscented. Vaseline
normal lessening? It has a scent base like this petroleum cement is
fine. You can't have any fragrant Vaseline. Can you? So when I say
fragrant doesn't have to be like even water has a smell. Do you
understand? It's a fragrant smell added fragrance? Can we look at
the Kaaba without facing it during the laugh? No, you don't look at
the Kava.
How do we do ill disarm if we can't face the Kaaba after your
tawaf your militarism and all of these special places that after
you finish it or you don't do it in between, there's no time for
that.
Unless you disturb your tawaf and then carry on again if you just
found that opportunity. I'm not going to get that opportunity
again let me just do it as different
should Can I do it is on the rest of the Kaabah between hydro and
the door they not really that's really never see anybody else
doing it anywhere else not it's that part because that's their to
do it because that's where the profit or loss on Linux
sunglasses are allowed
because they sit on your nose they don't touch your face.
What are rulings for Juma Salah during holidays?
You almost soccer so there's going to be no July for you. You pray
God in your tent unless you get to the masjid
But
when you're traveling Joomla is not followed on you anyway. The
haram for Hajj
as easier when should you make intention before you reach me now
you just do it from your hotel room as easier.
It's all fine. You can make the love sorry you can make your Iran
intention from anywhere.
If your group do qurbani and no text call from what is the best
option? Well, they should give you some ideas. Maybe add one or two
hours more than that.
Just be precautious can I make dua in English while doing tawaf? Yes,
you can.
Because you follow Hanafi school you don't combine gone unanswered
prayers in our efforts. If you read by yourself, you read the
Sunnah of the yes, you can. But you can of course it's all part of
your worship there anyway, and then make do afterwards. Can you
do is the bra tissue around your private parts while in Iran? Yes,
you can. Because there's not really clothing and you're doing
that for purity. There's just tissue. But how are you going to
keep it there? I don't know.
Because you can't have you can't have underwear.
Best place to put on Iran. That's, I don't know. That's, I mean,
anyway, anyway, monka in your hotel room is wasteful,
convenient. You can just go anywhere and do it is wherever is
convenient.
Don't feel afraid, I don't know who you are. So if you feel that
I'm
making fun, I'm not making fun of you and just lightening up the
atmosphere at your expense, but we don't know who you are. So it's
okay.
If one wants to perform multiple cameras consecutively, can one
then do the same multiple times together afterwards? No. Because
then you will be what technically what you'll be doing is you're in
one Iran, you've done toe off, then without finishing this off
because you can't do cutting hair without doing it. If you do that,
you pay a penalty. So what you do is you go and add another firearm
on so you like including one firearm on to another and it gets
very complicated like compound. Don't do that. And to be honest,
you do a few cameras. But it's more rewarding to do more DevOps
generally. Because in aamra, it takes you long to go out, come
back, shave the hair. Sorry, you're better off doing what the
wives do if you really want to do maybe one or two cameras, or one
every day if you want to. But the Olimar Don't say that. You should
do more cameras over the the novelty laughs nothing to watch
you get more done in the messages. You get more reward for being in
the masjid. Are you allowed to have a shower? Yes, you are
allowed to have a shower. You just can't use soap. You can go in
there to cool yourself down and just shower.
Have the water come over you and then go back out. I was told you
only have to pay one dime for all your mistakes. I don't know where
that offer is being offered.
Can male and female wear rubber gloves to clean toilets?
Males Can't they can put something around their hand but they can't.
Why would you be cleaning rubber gloves? Well, so if somebody might
want to mashallah to clean the toilets there so they fall
thinking mashallah for everybody else. But no, you use a cloth to
use something else you can't man with men cannot wear women can.
Men can wear rubber gloves.
And you're gonna say that's very misogynist here. We allow women to
wear it to clean, but not men. If you are not sure that you had made
a mistake, should you pay a penalty? There's no point on being
over the
particular about this. If you genuinely think that you made a
mistake. You are now clarified with an Ireland.
Are you allowed to wear a belt on top of the haram? Yes. If you are
unhedged, do you need to be Kobani? At home? If you're a
massage? No, you don't. But then it's still good to if you're going
to do it for your family members anyway.
Are you required to ask forgiveness from all people around
you in London before you go for Hajj, this is a point that I
should have. I need to include this is very important. get
forgiveness from anybody you have an issue with you go hudge you get
forgiveness that Allah doesn't forgive until people forgive you.
If you've aggressed against anybody, you've got problems with
someone.
So I should have really emphasized that, but that is very important.
Go and make an effort to sort things out with people. Do you
don't have to become Buddy Buddy again, but just at least get
forgiveness at least show from your side. They may be very harsh
and they may not from their side, you just have to do your part.
Then you go because you go there you do work on yourself. But then
you've got a problem with someone and you haven't made amends at
least from your side. You should definitely do that. Otherwise,
you're missing so much on your hedge. So much performed we'll do
before traveling and put on socks you can wipe over your socks up
To perform will do again on the plane. Yes if the socks are of
leather or waterproof the other waterproof ones that you get, it's
a very good idea but not for men. If they enter haram for women this
will be what this will work for men and a haram is not going to
work because you're not allowed to wear socks.
Dumb or extra cold money can be done in UK. Quarterback it can be
done anywhere in the world but dumb has to be done in the Haram
is qurbani allowed in by es Quran is also allowed by buying the
tickets in Makkah.
wheelchairs can be used Absolutely, you can use
wheelchairs, you can track the progress I was in trouble on the
camera. So I said I was considering a Segway not not for
myself, but
you are allowed to have a wheelchair many you'll see many
wheelchairs, their
hair cutting, how many times do we have to cut our hair in total?
Well, it depends on how many cameras and hygiene you do, how
much you do it once. And if you do an ombre before that, you'll cut
it once there as well. So minimum, you'll have to do two if you're
doing tomato. And if you do any more home runs, then you'd have to
do more. If you're worried about shortening your head too much than
in your home or just cut one quarter of your hair one inch of
one quarter of your hair or one half of it and in your house, then
cut the other half of it and then just treating it up. My hair nails
are fragile. hair falls a lot nails chip a lot. If my hair falls
while performing voodoo or sunnah whistle while in Iran, what
happens? I said, if it's a lot, you pay a sadaqa. It's not going
to be a quarter of your head. If it's a quarter or more you have to
pay them. If it's less than that. But more than a few, you pays two
pounds, three pounds. And if it's just one or two heads, then you
pay a
small amount of sadaqa. Can you throw pebbles with the left hand I
have a problem with the right hand. If you can't do it with your
right then yes, maybe with the left, but you don't have to like
throw with any kind of strength if you go just close and just kind of
drop it in there if you just kind of throw it. But yeah, if you've
got a bit major problems different. I read in a book that
we must expose that part of the face that we went for do. Can I
cover my forehead with hijab Walsingham.
Every part of the face that can be seen when you face someone is the
part that needs to be not covered. So you can't cover down to your
eyes or down to your eyebrows? Or cover your chin? You can't do
that. You can I said, put a cover over it in the way we explained.
But you can't touch any cloth over your forehead.
Of course, a bit below the hairline is fine. Because it's
very difficult to be right on the hairline a bit below that it's
fine. But generally what they say is the part that can be seen of
somebody's face is what needs to be uncovered. How many people do
pick 70? How many pebbles do you pick 7049. I read in another book,
it's 49. Well, let's let's see how many we need to pick the first
date seven. The second day, it's seven times 320 1/3 day it's 21.
So what we got 42 plus seven is 14. And so that's the minimum but
you might lose a few here or there because when you go in there, you
can lose a few. So pick a few extra when I say 70 is because we
are assuming that you're going to stay for the extra 21 For the last
day. But yeah, pick around 50 or so just pick a few extra
do we carry our suitcases with us? Well, travel light take a smaller
rucksack from your hotel to Mina.
Right? You go to Mina, you take an extra pair of clothes, etc. Then
you leave your extra pairs of clothes every minute. And you only
take your sleeping bag and a few snacks and things to other fun was
delivered and you come back to me now have a hostel after your
haircut. And then you change that then you go back so don't take a
big suitcase. If you don't have a rucksack you can take like a cabin
bag. Whatever small kind of bag you've got that can fit what you
need in the
after head staying in Makkah can we do as many dogs as possible and
what is the reward of doing it the off each tawaf holds the greatest
and most superior worship to be done that exactly what kind of
reward I don't know. From Allah subhanaw taala it's, you're going
around the Kaaba each time. It's your it's your obedience to Allah
subhanho wa Taala and it's showing your respect and honoring him.
After after the head, yes, you can do as many cameras as you want.
For your family members if you want to. If you can't, if you
can't memorize the two hours, is it okay to read them by looking at
the book? Yes, you can do that. But don't forget to make your
person to us as well. Can you make different intentions and different
doors every time you drink? Zum zum Yes, absolutely. Just sit
there and drink and make doors and intentions as many as you like.
Your creativity is
Is, is your martial that your creativity is your strength? Can
scented wipes be used to clean toilets while in State of Iran?
Yes, but you can't use your hands on them. Because if they touch
your hand, it's a problem. So if you're somehow able to do it
without touching them, then it's fine. If a woman has to perform
her toe office era on the 10th, before pelting in case of
menstruating, has her Muharram have, her mom can accompany that
the wife doesn't have a routine, the work can be done any time so
even the man can go is better for him not to do that. But if he's
accompany his wife, please go ahead and do so.
He won't miss Awaji by doing that, the order has to be observed by
both men and women for the S T.
H, PS PSH pelleting.
Sacrifice and head don't make it pelting stoning and hair. Because
then you get double pelting. Right PSH we chose this weird words to
make sure that the unique
spectacles that change into sunglasses, are you allowed during
Hajj Of course, you're talking about the photochromic
reactionless? Absolutely. They're very good. They're they're very
good because then they become sunglasses. People going one or
two days before the end of the nature do you have to do Amara if
you stay in as easier? Well, you don't have to. But what how long
are you going to put on is you're around them for a fraud just for
Hajj. Absolutely. Even just going one or two days before, then it's
up to you. If you don't think you've got enough time to go and
do tawaf and you know an overall beforehand and just to if rather
than stay in Accra.
Personally, I would think that's the best option to go into a
Koran. Because then you go and do it off. And a Saturday for your
ombre. You stay in Iran Zopa and coming out of it. And the next day
you're or the day after you're in Hajj. But you can do anything. You
can do anything. It's what you want to do. In the State of Iran,
how much dumb do you have to pay if one beard strand falls off? My
shoulder this person is really thinking very deeply. One big
strength I already mentioned, how much you have to pay
to summon some sadaqa and finally, the last question, if I'm in
Makkah performing Hajj and do a sacrifice, is it fine for me to
pay a charity for my wife, it's usually eat sacrifice, as you will
not be Makkah before I leave London. Absolutely. If you're the
head of the house and you manage the Quran every year, manage that
as normal. What I'll generally do is I'll send for my whole family
to India or somewhere a qurbani for them anyway, so that's getting
done, and I'll do my own in Hajj.
