An Easy Step By Step Method On Hajj. by Shaykh Mufti Afzal and Hossen Elias

Rami has to be made of all three Jamaraats(3x7). Do this after Zawaal as on the previous day. As explained earlier, the Mustahab time for the performance of this rite is from after Zawaal until sunset. From sunset to pre dawn of the next day is Makrooh, except for the women and the weak.

If Qurbaani or Tawaaf has NOT been done upto now, then it is necessary to do so BEFORE the setting of the sun. The Rami for this day also has to be performed before sunset.

After the Rami of the twelfth, one has the choice of:

1) Moving out of Mina before sunset and proceeding to Makkah. In this case there is no necessity to perform Rami on the thirteenth.

2) Staying in Mina for the Rami of the thirteenth. In this case, one will spend the night of the twelfth in Mina and perform Rami of all three Jamaraats (3x7) on the thirteenth.

3) If one happens to be in Mina after sunset, then it is Makrooh to leave without performing Rami of the thirteenth. Similarly if one happens to be in Mina on the morning of the thirteenth, then also it becomes Waajib to perform Rami of the thirteenth. If one moved out without doing so, then Damm becomes Waajib.

The best thing to do is to remain in Mina willingly until after sunset and to perform the Rami of all three Jamaraats on the thirteenth, after Zawaal and then to proceed to Makkah, even though it is permissible to move out on the twelfth.

The method of performing Rami this day, is the same as that of the previous day but the time for performing it is less. Rami cannot be performed after sunset as on the other days. The time for this Rami ends at sunset of the thirteenth. If one did not do so after it had become Waajib to do so by sunset, then one will have to give Damm.

If someone made Rami after Pre dawn and before Zawaal, on the thirteenth of Zil Haj, then although it is valid it will be Makrooh.

However, no Damm is Waajib due to this detestment. After the Rami of the twelfth, or, if one had stayed over, then go to Makkah on the thirteenth and remain engaged in righteous acts. Perform as many Tawaafs as possible and also, if one wishes, perform Umrahs, but more Tawaafs is better than more Umrahs, so the more Tawaafs the better. If one does perform Umrahs, then do so after the thirteenth.

LAWS FROM KITAABUL HAJJ Do not spoil your Hajj by last minute fighting etc. Today people get excited and want to go to pelt Satan on their own. They want to leave the group. They may do so provided one knows the procedures of safety. It is permissible to perform Tawaaf e Widaa, immediately after Tawaaf e Ziyaarat.

Go, preferably in a group. The advice of the above is applicable here also. It is best to pelt after Asr, then cross the border into Makkah.

The border of Mina is just after the big Jamaraat. So pelt, no duaa and leave. If you want to stay for the 13th Zil Hajj, the 6th Day you may do so. These days there are many who so. It is makrooh to leave, Mina to Makkah after sunset and necessary to stay in Mina if you are there during Subhe Saadiq (pre-dawn) time. If you are staying, go back to your tent and relax. Make Ibaadat a lot and increase in Zikr. If you are going to Makkah or Mina then increase making Zikr and reciting Quraan.
