KA'BAH

Kk


Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam. Muslims must make the pilgrimage to Makkah at least once in their lifetime.

Although people can visit Makkah anytime, we can only perform the Hajj in the Month of Zul Hijjah.

During Umrah and Hajj, we walk around the Ka'bah seven times then we drink some zam zam.

We then walk between the two hills of Safah and Marwah (Sa'i), 7 times. We then cut our hair or shave our head

During Hajj (8th til 13th Zul Hijjah), we spend time in Mina, Arafah and Muzdalifa. We do the Ramy of Jamarat.

During these days, Hajjis wear the Ihram- two pieces of white unstiched cloth. Women just wear simple clothes.

HAJJ

k


Whenever Muslims pray,they face the direction of the Ka'bah. The Ka'bah is in Makkah in Saudi Arabia.

The Ka'bah was the first house for the worship of Allah. Millions of people come to Makkah annually.

The Ka'bah forms the shape of a cube. It has no windows. The door is about two meters from the ground.

The Ka'bah has a Hateem (looks like a small semi-circular wall) near it. It was originally part of the Ka'bah.

People go around the Ka'bah seven times. They recite duas as they walk. They also kiss the Hajar-e-Aswad.

The Hajar-e-Aswad is a stone which came from heaven. It was white but the sins of mankind have made it black.

KA'BAH FACTS

k


The day of Arafah is the most important day of Hajj. The Prophet (pbuh) said that Hajj is Arafah.

People stand from noon til sunset in the plains and slopes of mount Arafah. They make dua to Allah.

Many people weep and ask Allah for forgiveness and other such favours. Allah listens to all duas.

Its like a scene from the last day where all humans will stand before Allah, awaiting their fate.

The day of Arafah is on the 9th day of Zul Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic year.

After the day of Arafah, the rest of the Muslim world have a special day called Eid-ul-Adha.

REPENTDUAUMRAHQUR'AN


And proclaim amongst the people (about observing) Hajj (pilgrimage),

they shall come to you on foot and on every lean camel, they shall come

from every deep and distant (mountain highway)..

The command came to Prophet Ibrahim (as) to tell the people to perform the Hajj to this noble house (i.e. the Ka'bah). So the Hajj was started by Ibrahim (as) which was many hundreds of years before Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) time.

The people come from all corners of the world to perform the Hajj. Every town and city in the world seems to be sending Hajjis every year to Makkah. Millions of Hajjis make pilgrimage every year. People come to Hajj on different types of transport such as ships, planes, buses and by walking.

al qur'an

Muhammad (pbuh) is the last and final messenger of Allah. Muhammad (pbuh) brought the Qur'an to us and taught us how to live our lives according to the will of Allah.However, we also believe and respect the thousands of prophets that came before Muhammad (pbuh). We still love and respect Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) and follow the command Allah had given him to call people to Hajj.

The 'Sihah Sittah' are the six most authentic Hadith collections. They are listed below and are used widely by the Muslim Ummah.

Bukhari and Muslim are the top two Ahadith collections. They were extensively researched and also have the toughest criteria for Sahih Hadith.

Other Hadith collections are also referred to and used by the scholars.

The oldest collection is the Muwatta of Imam Malik.

al hadith

The Hadith are the second most important source of information after

the Qur'an. They help us understand the will and command of Allah

better. The Ahadith contain the sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh).

The Hajj is a very important act of worship. If we do the Hajj without breaking any of the guidelines, Allah will forgive all our sins. We will be sinless just as a baby when it is born.

Any good action has the effect of removing or cancelling our sins. However, we must have the correct intention and do it according to the teachings of Islam.

Whenever we do any good deed we should think about the reason we are doing it. Are we doing it for Allah or for some other reason? We learn about right and wrong by studying Islam.

Abdullah went to Hajj and got lost.

Help him get back to Mina.

Mina is often called 'tent city' because when the Hajjis go there, they stay in tents. There are millions

of Hajjis so you can imagine how many tents there would be. They arrive in Mina on the first day of Hajj from Makkah and spend the day there. They spend a total of three days in Mina. It is easy to get lost in Mina because it is so big and the tents look similar.

Ibrahim (as) was a great prophet. Once he came to visit his son, Ismael, in Makkah. He had not met Ismael for a while and was longing to see him. Ismael had grown up into a young man with his own small family. Ismael was returning home from hunting when they both met. Ibrahim (as) and Ismael both embraced each other and were so overjoyed.

The command was given to Ibrahim to build a house, dedicated to the worship of Allah. Together Ibrahim and Ismael started building this Masjid, known as the Ka'bah. They built it near the spring of Zamzam, close to the hillocks of Safah and Marwah.

As they were building the Ka'bah, they were unable to reach the higher parts of the wall. The stone Ibrahim was standing on would rise up and down, allowing the wall to be built. To finish the walls, they were needing a corner stone, but could not find one suitable. Jibrael brought them a pure white stone from Jannah to complete the building.

Ibrahim and Ismael completed the building and fixed the corner stone. Ibrahim, by the command of Allah, then invited the whole of Mankind to make the pilgrimage to this holy place.

For many years Makkah remained a city of peace and goodness. Later, evil crept into the community and soon the people began to put idols in and around the Ka'bah.

Ibrahim had dedicated this building to Allah, the one and only true God of mankind. Mankind had polluted this pure truth by putting false gods in this holiest of places.

It was only when Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) came did he restore it back to its original state. However, the people have been doing the pilgrimage to Makkah from the time of Ibrahim until today. Billions of people have visited this holiest of places.

Ibrahim was a prophet of Allah. Even today he is respected by all revealed religions of the world. There are many great stories in his life and many lessons to learn from this great man. There is one story in particular which has great significance today.

Ibrahim had a dream in which he was commanded to sacrifice his son to Allah. Ibrahim was very worried because he loved his son so much. This dream appeared to him a few times and he knew that this dream was true. He was also a prophet and their dreams are equal to revelation.

He spoke to his son Ismael who replied, “Do as you have been commanded.” Ibrahim decided that he would carry out the command to sacrifice his son, just as he had been commanded to do in his dream.

Ibrahim set off with a heavy heart towards the place of sacrifice. He travelled with his beloved son, Ismael, as he made his way through the land. Suddenly, the Shaytan appeared to him and tried to stop him from obeying Allah’s command. Shaytan tried many things such as reminding him how much he loved his son.

The Shaytan appeared to Ibrahim three times and each time Ibrahim chased him away by throwing small stones at him. Finally, Ibrahim arrived at the place of sacrifice; he blindfolded himself so that he would not see the face of his beautiful son whom he loved dearly.

After the sacrifice he removed the blindfold. Ibrahim was overjoyed when he saw his son standing there and a sheep had been sacrificed instead. Allah had saved his son from harm and Ibrahim’s sacrifice was also accepted. The dream was a test from Allah to see if Ibrahim could sacrifice everything for Allah. Ibrahim had passed this difficult test.

During Hajj, the pilgrims still throw small stones at a place called the Jamarat. They throw seven stones at each of the three pillars, which represent the shaytan. They make a sacrifice afterwards just as Ibrahim did. This is all part of Hajj. In every country, Muslims make Qurabani (sacrifice) and distribute the meat to the poor, their family and friends. This special Qurbani is on this day of Eid ul Adha.

Many children get gifts on Eid. Draw your favourite toy.
