Verily all praise is for Allaah, we praise Him and seek His aid, and we ask for His forgiveness,

and we seek refuge in Allaah from the evils of our own selves and from our evil deeds.



Whomsoever Allaah has guided, none can misguide him, and whomsoever Allaah has mis-

guided, none can guide him, and I testify that none has the right to be worshipped except



Allaah, without any partner, and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.

To proceed,

Verily the desire to make Knowledge easily accessible to the public has called me to explain

the rites of Hajj and to do that by extracting these from my original book: "the Hajj of the

Prophet as narrated by Jaabir " - in the same way that I produced an abridgement

of my book on th Prophet's manner of Prayer - except that I have herein included many

important additions not found in the original - and I have been careful to record their source

and authenticity - along with other additions with I have added in accordance with the method

used in my other books as regards quoting the standard Hadith along with its source - in

abridged form - while usually referring the reader to my other books - some of which have

been published and some of which have not. As for what is to be found in my original book on

Hajj, then I have not quoted the sources in full herein - regarding it as sufficient that reader

should refer back to the original as it is widely available to the honourable readers - so

anyone who wishes to check on such a point will find it easy to refer back to and I will refer to

it as 'The Original'. And to add to the usefulness of the book I have ended it with a brief

mention of the innovations connected with Hajj and visiting Madinah.

And I have called it "The Rites of Hajj and 'Umrah" from the Book and the Sunnah and

Narrations from the Pious Predecessors.
