Hajj is a life-changing journey, one that millions of Muslims undertake each year to fulfill their religious obligation. It is a path of devotion, patience, and unity. To make this sacred pilgrimage memorable and spiritually rewarding, it’s essential to understand the steps from preparation to arrival in Makkah.
The journey begins with intention and preparation. Start by purifying your heart and making the niyyah (intention) for Hajj. Gather the necessary travel documents, Ihram clothing, and essential items for your stay. Learn about the rituals of Hajj in detail, so you can perform them with understanding and devotion.
As you set out on your journey, recite the
Dua for travel:
“سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ”
(Glory to Him Who has subjected this for us, and we could not have [otherwise] subdued it; and indeed, to our Lord, we will return).
Keep your focus on Allah, and engage in constant dhikr and dua throughout the trip. Before reaching the Miqat, put on your Ihram and make your intention for Hajj:
“لَبَّيْكَ اللَّهُمَّ حَجًّا”
(O Allah, I am here for Hajj).
From this point, recite the Talbiyah continuously as you approach the holy city of Makkah:
” لَبَّيْكَ اللَّهُمَّ لَبَّيْكَ، لَبَّيْكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ لَبَّيْكَ. إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ وَالنِّعْمَةَ لَكَ وَالْمُلْكَ، لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ.”
