The Rites of Hajj
Discover step-by-step the rituals of this extraordinary pilgrimage.
Ihram
Begin your Hajj by making the sincere intention to enter the state of Ihram. Recite the Talbiyah and wear the Ihram garments.
Tawaf Al-Qudum
Upon arriving in Mecca, perform the Tawaf of Arrival by circumambulating the Kaaba seven times. Following this, offer a two-Rak'ah prayer behind Maqam Ibrahim.
Sa'i between Safa and Marwah
Perform Sa'i by walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwah, starting from Safa and completing at Marwah.
Mina (The Day of Tarwiyah)
Head to Mina on the morning of the 8th of Dhul-Hijjah. Spend the day and night there in prayer and devotion.
Arafat (The Peak of Hajj)
On the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah, assemble at the plain of Arafat. Spend the day entirely in supplication until sunset.
Muzdalifah
After sunset, move to Muzdalifah. Spend the night under the stars and collect pebbles for the upcoming throwing rituals.
Stoning (Jamrat Al-Aqabah)
On the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah (Eid Day), return to Mina and stone the largest pillar (Jamrat Al-Aqabah) with seven pebbles.
Adhahi (Animal Sacrifice)
Fulfill the sacrifice requirement. Local agencies ensure the meat is shared with those in need worldwide.
Shaving/Triming the Hair
Shave or cut your hair. Following this act, you can exit the restrictions of Ihram and wear normal clothes.
Tawaf Al-Ifadah
Return to Mecca and perform the mandatory Tawaf Al-Ifadah (seven times around the Kaaba), concluding with a prayer.
Stoning the Three Jamarat
Over the next 2-3 days in Mina (the Days of Tashreeq), cast pebbles at all three Jamarat.
Tawaf Al-Wadaa (Farewell Tawaf)
Before departing Mecca to return home, perform a final, farewell circumambulation around the Kaaba.
