أسئلة عن الحج
As-Salamo Alaykom;
I have read your article that the way we perform Hajj is incorrect. I understood from your article that we have four months to perform it and I understood that we can go any day within these four months. My question is how many days should we stay there? Why do we go to Makah and Al-Madinah? According to what I understood from Quran, we should go to Makah only where Ka\'aba is. So why we also go to Al-madina (The Prophet \"PBUH\" Mosque). Is it a must that we go to both (Makah and Al-Madina) or we can avoid this and go only to Makkah. I understood from your article that it\'s a mistake to throw stones to the Shaitan. Can you please explain to me the correct way of performing Hajj, step by step (i.e. how many days should I stay, what I have to say/do in every day, etc.). Allah also ordered those who are only capable to perform Hajj. How do I know if I am capable or not? I know that we first must marry, then go to Hajj if we are financially capable and we must be healthy. Are there any other conditions? Regarding paying Zakat, why do we wait one year to pay it and not every month? What are the conditions for paying Zakat?
Thank you kindly for your time. May Allah guide all of us to the straight path.
As-Salamo Alaykom, Few hours ago, I sent you email regarding your article about Hajj. I forgot to mention that I also understood from your article that Hajj is for all mankind, not only for Muslims. But according to this verse, Allah ordered the believers to prevent Moshrekeen from entering Al-Haram Mosque. And we all know that for example that Christians Yoshreko (associate) Jesus (PBUH) as a partner with Allah. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّمَا الْمُشْرِكُونَ نَجَسٌ فَلَا يَقْرَبُوا الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ بَعْدَ عَامِهِمْ هَٰذَا وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ عَيْلَةً فَسَوْفَ يُغْنِيكُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ إِن شَاءَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ التوبة (28) Can you please explain why you said that all Mankind is allowed to go to Hajj i.e. Al-Haram Mosque. Thanks again,
Best Regards,
