hajj

is there any thing in particular (farz/sunnah) one needs to learn before going for a hajj?? do i need to perform umra before hajj?

Re: hajj

No one knows about hajj ... interesting

Re: hajj

dude - check out www.islamqa.com for all your queries - the site is really detailed and fun to read if you find what you are looking for

I am sure they have described Hajj and umrah in detail aswell.

when do you intend on doing your hajj?

Re: hajj

Many thanks for the info, One thing i got from this site is: not to read just any site or link/article etc. ask, discuss and confirm by some one with knowledge. I am sure most of basic computer users know about google.

Inshallah this coming hajj; to my understanding its in december I wanted to know if there is some thing to learn so that I can start learning it now as I am a VERY slow learner.

Re: hajj

u do not need to do umra before hajj....

but if u r going for hajj, to hajj-e-tamatu' which is doing an umrah before hajj, because u cant travel to makkah often so better make best use of the visit....

hajj is fardh, umrah is not....

Re: hajj

Many thanks for your input Armughal. I got the answer for umra before hajj as well.

I read this article as well nice read. The good thing is nothing new to learn.

One more question. I heard inside makka (old) one can volunteer to do some small job and that way they can stay there for as long as they want, is it true??

Re: hajj
