This volume details the jurisprudence of Hajj and Umrah, establishing the conditions for their obligation, the methods for their performance, and the regulations governing the state of Ehraam. It defines the boundaries of the Meeqaat and the Haram, while outlining the essential, necessary, and sunnat actions required for a valid pilgrimage. The text further addresses the specific rituals of Tawaaf, Sa’ee, the Wuqoof at ‘Arafaat and Muzdalifah, and the pelting of the Jamraat. It provides comprehensive guidance on expiations for ritual offences, the performance of Hajj by proxy, and the protocols for visiting the sacred sites in Madina Tayyibah.

## Key topics & takeaways

### Conditions and Obligations
- **Conditions for Hajj to be compulsory** — the work holds that Hajj is fard upon a Muslim who is free, sane, adult, healthy, and possesses the financial means to cover the journey and the maintenance of their dependents during their absence.
- **Conditions for the soundness of Hajj** — the text specifies that the performance must occur within the designated time and at the designated locations, and the pilgrim must be in the state of Ehraam.
- **Fard actions of Hajj** — the work identifies three fard actions: the state of Ehraam, the Wuqoof at ‘Arafaat, and the Tawaaf e Ziyaarat ([page 63](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=63)).
- **Waajib actions of Hajj** — the text lists several waajib acts, including the Sa’ee between Safa and Marwah, the Wuqoof at Muzdalifah, and the Rami of the Jamraat ([page 10](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=10)).

### Ehraam and Prohibitions
- **Haraam actions in Ehraam** — the work prohibits wearing sewn garments, applying fragrance, removing hair, trimming nails, hunting, and engaging in sexual intimacy or related acts ([page 11](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=11)).
- **Permissible actions in Ehraam** — the text permits bathing, using an umbrella, wearing a ring, and using an unscented miswak.
- **Differences between genders** — the work notes that while men must avoid sewn clothing and covering the head, women are permitted to wear sewn garments and must keep their faces uncovered unless there is a fear of fitna ([page 137](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=137)).

### Rituals of Makkah
- **Method of Tawaaf** — the text instructs that Tawaaf must begin at the Hajar al-Aswad, be performed while in a state of wudu, and consist of seven circuits around the Kaa’ba ([page 162](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=162)).
- **Sa’ee at Safa and Marwah** — the work holds that Sa’ee must be performed after a valid Tawaaf, beginning at Safa and ending at Marwah, totaling seven laps ([page 196](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=196)).
- **Wuqoof at ‘Arafaat** — the text states that the essential time for Wuqoof begins from the zawal of the 9th of Zil-Hijjah until the dawn of the 10th ([page 63](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=63)).
- **Rami of the Jamraat** — the work details that seven pebbles must be thrown at the Jamraat, and it lists twelve specific actions that are considered makruh during this ritual ([page 259](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=259)).

### Expiations and Special Cases
- **Expiation for offences** — the text provides a detailed schedule of dam (sacrifice), sadaqah, or fasting required for violations such as applying perfume or cutting hair while in Ehraam.
- **The Muhsar** — the work defines the Muhsar as one who is prevented from completing Hajj due to illness or enemy action, detailing the procedure for exiting the state of Ehraam through sacrifice.
- **Hajj e Badal** — the text holds that Hajj by proxy is permissible if the person is physically unable to perform it themselves, provided the proxy has already performed their own fard Hajj ([page 123](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=123)).

### Madina Tayyibah and Ziyaarat
- **Virtues of Madina** — the work affirms the immense spiritual status of Madina Tayyibah and warns against any form of ill-treatment toward its residents.
- **Etiquette of Ziyaarat** — the text provides specific guidance for visiting the Raudha e Aqdas, emphasizing the importance of humility, reciting Durood, and offering Salams to the Prophet ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص ([page 392](https://noorenabi.org/knowledge-base/k-introduction-by-3?page=392)).
