Performing Hajj according to Sunnah is of the utmost importance. So, how do you perform acts to meet the needs of Sunnah?
|
|
The Acts of Hajj are made up into two categories. These are The Pillars and Obligatory Acts. These categories are then split into separate parts.
The Pillars are acts that must be performed to ensure you don't invalidate your Hajj 2011. These pillars are comprised of:
Ihraam: This is having an intention or a meaning to begin the acts of worship for Hajj. Ihram begins at certain places called Meekats.
Standing at Arafah: To perform Hajj according to Sunnah, people have to stand at Arafah for a moment from mid day of the ninth day to the dawn of the tenth day.
Tawaaf al-Ifaadhah: This begins after standing at Arafah and to meet Sunnah requirements people must follow. This act demonstrates the unity of believers in one being.
Sa'y: This is the final pillar of Hajj and must be done to remember Ishmael's mother Hagar, who ran back and forth looking for a source of food for her children.
Obligatory Acts of Hajj: are acts that have to be done during Hajj according to Sunnah.
Ihraam: Pilgrims must start at the Sharee'ah-approved Meeqaats
Arafah: Pilgrims must stand at Arafah until the sun sets
Al-Muzdalifah: Pilgrims must spend the tenth night at Al-Muzdalifah. This is agreed on by most scholars.
Tashreeq: Spend the nights of the days of Tashreeq at Mina in the same way the prophet did
Stoning at the Jamraat: You must throw stones at the Jamraat in remembrance of the prophet at the pillars of Tashreeq.
Cutting your hair and shaving your beard. This is also very important and most religious preachers recognise this as obligitory
Circumbate Al- Bayt: This is the last thing that should be done before leaving.
If you don't do all of these tasks, it won't invalidate your Hajj 2011. However, a sacrifice must be offered.
Following these acts above are the recommended acts of Sunnah. It is not essential to do them, but it is good to imitate the Prophet by doing them.
To complete your Hajj Packages 2011 you must follow all the Pillars of Hajj and must try and follow all the obligatory Acts of Hajj. If the obligatory acts are not completed a sacrifice of a lamb must be made to make good the act not completed.
Following all of these should ensure you have a good and productive Hajj 2011.
