Allaah The Almighty blessed me with Hajj last year. With regards to the day of slaughtering, I still harbor doubts that while throwing pebbles at the Kubra Jamrah (the big pillar), two or three pebbles did not fall in the pit; although my colleague confirmed the opposite: that the pebbles did indeed fall in the pit and that my doubts are only caused..

I performed Hajj on behalf of the deceased father of one of my friends. His family insisted that they give me the expenses that I had during Hajj. I took them upon their insistence but I do not want the money because I feel that I took the reward of Hajj from people while in fact I want the reward from Allaah.

I have a question about Ihraam. Should I perform two Rak‘ahs after entering the state of Ihraam or are these two Rak‘ahs simply recommended and not obligatory? One more question, if I apply Vaseline before entering the state of Ihraam so as to prevent inflammation, will this invalidate Ihraam, given that the Vaseline remains after bathing and.. More
It was my first time to go for ‘Umrah some time ago and I was not aware of the rulings of ‘Umrah. While circumambulating the Ka‘bah in the second and the third rounds I was not sure whether I made any Athkaar or supplications or not. Therefore, I made two rounds to substitute the second and third rounds. I recited some reported supplications.. More
We intended to make ‘Umrah on the first night of Ramadhaan. Therefore, we traveled to Makkah on the 26th of the month of Sha’baan and assumed Ihraam (ritual consecration) at Qarn Al-Manaazil, our due Meeqaat (designated point for assuming Ihraam), then we maintained the state of Ihraam until the month of Ramadhaan started. Hence, are we liable.. More
