Many pilgrims when they travel to Madinah, they pray to the graves.

They make du’aa’ to Rasul Allah (peace be upon him). This could not only

ruin their Hajj, it could nullify their Islam.

2. Do not rub graves for barakah.

3. Do not make du’aa’ to anyone except Allah ta’aala.

4. When going to Madinah, your initial intention should be to visit Masjid

An-Nabawee, the Prophet’s Masjid.









B- In Ihraam



1. Do not pass the Meeqaat without being in the state of Ihraam. If you

are landing in Jeddah and going to Makkah to perform Umrah directly,

you must be in a state of Ihraam before you land, as the plane shall enter

the Meeqaat. Jeddah is inside the Meeqaat.

2. If you are landing in Jeddah, you need your Ihraam towels with you on

the airplane in your carry-on bag.

3. Women may wear anything Islamically permissible for Ihraam.

4. Do not take pictures of yourself in Ihraam. You came to worship Allah

and taking pictures for showing others later may contradict your sincerity

of doing this for the sake of Allah.

5. Women in their menses must be in a state of Ihraam when they pass

the Meeqaat. They should shower and do talbiyah like everyone else.



6. Do not uncover your right shoulder until you reach the Ka’bah and be-

gin Tawaaf. This is the time that the Messenger uncovered his shoulder



and it is an act of Hajj, so we must follow when the Prophet did it.

7. You may change your Ihraam towels if they get dirty.

8. You do not enter into Ihraam by just wearing the towels. You must

make the intention to begin.

9. Do not shave your beard, whether before, during or after Ihraam.

10. You should wear sandals, but if you do not have sandals, you do not

have to walk barefoot. Wear what you have until you find a place to get

sandals.
