Hajj (Pilgrimage) Allah said in the Qur’an: Wa lillahi ^alan-nasi hijjul-bayti mani-stata^a ilayhi sabila. • Ayah 97 of Al ^Imran means that Allah made it an obligation on the capable person to make Hajj to Makkah where the Ka^bah is located. Hajj is one of the most important matters of Islam. The person who has the capability to perform it has to perform it once in one’s lifetime. Hajj has six integrals and it is not valid without one completing all of them. These are: 1- Ihram, which is the intention to perform Hajj. 2- To be at ^Arafah at a specific time. 3- To go around the Ka^bah (Tawaf) seven times in due time observing its required conditions. 4- To walk between Safa and Marwah seven times. 5- To remove the hair by shaving or trimming, i.e., the man removes all or some of his hair even if it is three hairs. The woman trims her hair only and does not shave it. 6- To observe the order in most of these integrals.
