Duk wanda ke shirin yin Hajji ya kamata:

A potential Hajji should:

1.) Ku biya dukkan basussukanku kafin ku tafi aikin Hajji, ko kuma ku shirya yadda za a biya kason bashin a lokacin da ba ku nan, ko ku nemi izinin tafiya daga wanda kuke bi bashi. Ba abu ne mai kyau ba ku sami kanku kuna yin Tawaaf alhali kuma kusa da ku akwai wanda kuke bi bashin dubban kudi.

1.) Pay all debts before proceeding for Hajj or make adequate arrangements for instalments to be met in their absence, or seek permission of travel from whoever you owe money. It is not good to find yourself making tawaaf and near you is one whom you owe thousands .

2.) Idan ka cutar da wani, ka nemi gafararsa. Idan ka karɓi dukiyar wani, kuɗinsa ko kayansa, ka mayar wa masu haƙƙinsu duk abin. Ka zo gaban Allah a gaban Ka'aba da kuma a Arafat da zuciya tsarkakakkiya.

2.) If you have harmed someone, seek their forgiveness. If you have taken someone’s valuables, money or property, return everything to their rightful owners. Come before Allaah in front of the Ka’bah and in Arafaat with a clean slate.

3.) Ba wajibi ba ne a ziyarci dangi da abokai.

3.) It is not necessary to visit relatives and friends.

4.) It is a gross waste of money to have huge get-togethers, Hajj – farewell parties etc. With the amount of money spent on these shows one can send a poor person for Hajj.

5.) Bai dace ba ga Musulmi ya sanar ta talabijin, rediyo ko jarida cewa zai tafi Hajji a wata rana kaza kuma zai tashi daga gida zuwa filin jirgin sama a lokaci kaza; wannan roko ne.

5.) It is not becoming of a Muslim to advertise via television, radio or newspaper that one will be going for Hajj on a certain day and will be proceeding from the house to the airport at such and such a time, this is begging.

Baya ga jami'an filin jirgi da suke jin tsoro, ana aikata abubuwa da yawa na haram, kamar ɗaukar hoto, cuɗanya tsakanin maza da mata, rungumar mahramai, sallah kuma galibi ana rasa ta, sai mai niyyar zuwa Hajji ya fara tafiyarsa a kuskure. Abin takaici ne ƙwarai.

6.) One should discourage relatives and friends from coming to the airport. One couple goes for Hajj and half the village and tribe is there to see them off. Beside the airport officials getting nervous, many haraam activities take place such as photography, intermingling of sexes, hugging of namahrams, Salaat is generally missed and the potential Hajji starts off on the wrong footing. How sad.

7.) Ku yi tafiya da kayan da ba su yawa, mun samar da jerin kayan tafiya a ƙarshen littafin.
