The command
فِيهِ ءَايَٰتُۢ بَيِّنَٰتٞ مَّقَامُ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَۖ وَمَن دَخَلَهُۥ كَانَ ءَامِنٗاۗ وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ حِجُّ ٱلۡبَيۡتِ مَنِ ٱسۡتَطَاعَ إِلَيۡهِ سَبِيلٗاۚ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنِ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ其中有许多明证，如易卜拉欣的立足地。凡入其中的人都得安宁。凡能到它〔天房〕的人，都有为安拉而朝觐天房的义务。不归信的人，〔无损于安拉，〕因为安拉确是无求于众世界的。
وَأَذِّن فِي ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡحَجِّ يَأۡتُوكَ رِجَالٗا وَعَلَىٰ كُلِّ ضَامِرٖ يَأۡتِينَ مِن كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٖ你应当在众人中宣告朝觐，他们就从远道或徒步或乘着瘦驼，到你这里来，
The rites in brief
- Ihram from the miqat with the intention for Hajj and simple uniform garments.
- Tawaf around the Kaaba seven times, and sa‘i between Safa and Marwa seven times.
- Standing at Arafah (9 Dhul-Hijjah), spending the night at Muzdalifah, then stoning the pillars at Mina, the sacrifice and shaving or trimming the hair.
- Farewell tawaf before leaving.
Hajj versus Umrah
- Hajj: in set days of Dhul-Hijjah, includes standing at Arafah, and is obligatory once for those able.
- Umrah: any time, with ihram, tawaf, sa‘i and shaving or trimming; strongly recommended according to the majority (obligatory according to some).
The merit of Hajj
مَنْ حَجَّ لِلَّهِ فَلَمْ يَرْفُثْ وَلَمْ يَفْسُقْ رَجَعَ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُWhoever performs Hajj for God, and does not commit obscenity or transgression, returns like the day his mother bore him.
The next Hajj
Arafah is expected around 15 May 2027 and Eid al-Adha around 16 May 2027, subject to moon sighting.
