蒙安拉的恩典,今晚玛格里布礼拜后,在先知寺(Masjid-e-Nabawi)里,(日期:2003年1月14日——伊历1423年都尔-喀尔德月13日),我决定撰写一本循序渐进的朝觐简易指南。本书将涵盖朝觐律例的主要方面、关于旅行、住宿的实用建议、在王国境内的办理程序、应做与不应做之事,使其成为一本便携的指南,并且,若安拉意欲,它将消除人们心中的隐忧,尤其是初次朝觐者的顾虑。对于那些已经完成此行的人,本书也将起到复习与更新的作用。

By the Grace of Allaah, tonight after Maghrib, in Masjid -e- Nabawi r, (date: 14th January 2003 - 13 Zil Qaadah 1423), I have decided to pen an easy step by step method on Hajj. This book will comprise of the major aspects concerning the laws of Hajj, practical tips about travel, stay, procedure in the Kingdom, what to do and what not do, so that it will serve as a handy guide and it will alleviate hidden fears especially for the first timer, Insha Allaah. For those who have already made this trip it will serve as a revision and also an update.
