Re: Hajj
Hi Umer,
I haven't performed the Hajj yet, but my sister in law and her family went when her sone was 2 years old, and also we all went to Umrahh together with my sister in laws 2 children, boy of 4 and daughter who was 16 months.
My sister in law when she went for Hajj took one of those child restraints that you tie round your wrist and the childs waist and said that it came in very useful. Also, they took with them a baby sling so that they could carry my nephew easily.
in Umrahh it wasn't as crowded obviously, but we again used the restraint for my niece as by then nephew was 4 and old enough to understand and keep up.
Also, it helps if you are in a big family group as you can all take turns to look after the little ones.
When we went for the Umraah we were lucky that my mum and aunt (who is my sister in laws mother in law) had hired their wheelchairs (in the UK) as the kids could go in their laps.
Insha Allah, I hope that your experience of Hajj is the best of your life!
