INTRODUCTION
Indeed all praise is due to Allaah, we praise Him, we seek His help and His
forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah from the evil of ourselves and the evil
of our actions. Whomsoever Allaah guides no one can misguide him, whom
soever He misguides no one can guide him. I testify that there is no deity
worthy of worship except Allaah alone and that He has no partners and I
testify that Muhammad ~ is His slave and Messenger. Peace and prayers be
upon him, his Family and Companions and those who follow them in good
ness up to the Last Day.
To proceed: This is a concise book containing the merits, the manners and the
®.
rulings of Hajj, 'Umrah and the visit to the Prophet's Masjid It clarifies
all the needs of the pilgrim from the time he leaves his house until he returns
to it safe and sound, insha'allaah.
All the points are backed with evidences from the Qur'aan and the Sunnah.
Whatever is correct is from al-Waahid (The One), al-Mannaan (The
Benefactor), and wharever is incorrecr is from me and Shaytaan, Allaah and His
Messenger ($ )are indeed free from him.
The matters which were difficult for me were clarified from the rulings of
Shaikh 1\bd ul-'Azeez bin 'Abdullaah bin Baaz, hafidhahu.llaah, may he be
raised in status, and I took from what he had concluded. May Allaah reward
him with goodness. Then this book was reviewed from the beginning to the
end by Shaikh 1\bdullaah bin 'Abd ur-Rahmaan al-Jibreen. His work was both
excellent and beneficial, may Allaah reward him with good.
I ask AJiaah that He makes this effort sincere for His Noble Face and brings
together the author, the reader, the primer and the distributor as companions

in Paradise. I ask that it benefits me in this life and also after my death, by
benefiting all those who read it. For Allaah is the best of those who take
account and the One able to fulfil the hopes. He will indeed judge us and bless
us for He is al-Wakeel (The Trustee).
All praise is due to Allaah, Lord of the worlds, peace and prayers be upon
our Prophet Muhammad r upon his Family, his Companions, and those who
follow them in goodness up until the last day.

CHAPTER
HAJJ IS AN OBLIGATORY ACTION
The Linguistic Meaning Of Hajj:
It means the qasd (the aim) however in the Sharee'ah and in traditional usage,
it commonly means the Hajj (pilgrimage) to the House of Allaah, the Most
High, and its performance.
It is not generally understood, except in this particular form because it has
become a well known legislation by it.
The Sharee'ah Meaning Of Hajj:
It is the name given to a particular set of actions, times, places and people. It is
one of the five pillars which Islaam is built upon. Its obligation is shown from
the Qur'aan, the Sunnah and the Ijmaa'(the consensus).
Allaah, the Most Mighty and the Most Majestic, Says:
Hajj to the House is a duty that mankind owes to Allaah for those who can
afford the trip, and whoever disbelieves, then Allaah stands not in need of
any of the mankind and jinn.l
