Rites overview

A short classroom-style outline of the journey. This is educational support, not a fatwa. Follow your teacher and the official manasik you are given in tarbiyat.

Ihram and Talbiyah

Hujjaj enter Ihram from the miqat with the intention of Haj, recite the Talbiyah, and keep the restrictions of Ihram until they are released after the rites.

Tawaf and Sa'i

Circumambulation of the Ka'bah and the walk between Safa and Marwah are practised in class so first-time Hujjaj know the direction, the duas, and how to stay with the group.

Arafat

The standing at Arafat is the heart of Haj. Training stresses presence, dua, hydration, and staying within the announced group movement.

Muzdalifah and Jamarat

Overnight at Muzdalifah, collection of pebbles, and the stoning at Mina are explained with safety and patience, especially for elders and women.

Tawaf al-Ziyarah and farewell

The remaining tawaf, the shaving or shortening of hair, and the farewell tawaf complete the manasik taught in our weekend sittings.
