pilgrimage) is such a rite which was not
innovated by Islam. It had been rather performed by Prophet Abraham.
The Qur’an tells us that he was commanded to call on people to perform
Hajj. In the Qur’an, we read:
And
proclaim to the people the Hajj [pilgrimage]; they will come to you on
foot and on every lean camel; they will come from every distant pass (Al-Hajj 22:27)
There are three types of Hajj: Hajj
Tamatu` (which is performing `Umrah “minor pilgrimage” then Hajj), Hajj
Ifrad (which is performing Hajj only), and Hajj Qiran (which is
performing `Umrah and Hajj together)
The rituals of Hajj include Ihram,
Talbiyah, Tawaf, Sa`i, spending night at Mina, standing at Arafat,
spending night at Muzdalifah, throwing Jamarat (pebbles) at Mina, and
sacrifice. It is highly recommended to visit Prophet Muhammad’s Mosque.
