now people say and ask I want to do Haj
I want to do om what should I
learn number one you have to learn that
this ritual is unlike any other
ritual so you have to do your due
diligence before you travel for
Hajj now when we want to travel to Hajj
we have to assume what is known
as to enter the state
ofam for example if I want to pray I
have to enter in the state
of
purification where I would uplift any
major or Min minor ritual impurity by
doing or by doing wood so I've entered
in this state likewise in
the state
of now I'm in the state of
Halal meaning I can cover my head I can
wear my shirt I can wear my shoes I can
put perfume I could clip my nails I
could trim my mustache I could shave my
head
Etc when I want to enter the state
ofam I have to refrain from all of that
which we will talk about later on but in
order for me to enter the state ofam I
need to know the
mikat what is the
mikat
mik is
singular is
plural mik linguistically refers to the
Limit or to the
boundary and
it relates to either time bound or place
Bound Again what do you mean
for you do not
require time
mik you could perform your om 24 hours 7
days a week 30 days a month 12 months a
year anytime you can perform per your
there's no time limits for
that as for Hajj no it's different for
Hajj there are a particular time where
when where you can perform the rituals
of Hajj beginning of the first day of
sha shaal is the 10th month of the
calendar in Hijra year the ninth month
is Ramadan
so we fast Ramadan until the
30th usually and then the first day of
the following month is the first of sha
which is this is the day that those
wanting to perform Haj can assume
their
on and it
ends at the last day of
Haj though we know that there are 10
days of the beginning beginning of
Haj the day the 10th day is theid the
11th 12th and 13th
are but still one can complete his
rituals until the last day
of and it's an issue of dispute so these
are the mikat related to time the month
of shawal the month of and the month
of very well let's move on to the ma
related to T to place so the ma these
are places that a person wanting to
assume the state ofam must not exceed
must not pass without assuming
hisam and they're five according to the
prophets
designation or designating
them Abbas may Allah be pleased with him
said that the prophet
Sall defined the mik
of for the people of
Medina so those living in Medina wanting
to go and travel to mecca for omra or
for Hajj there is a place
called nowadays is known as
they must not exceed that without
assuming the S
of and then they go on the people of
sham or Syria the lavant area they have
a village known as
Al the people of n
have and the people of Yemen have
y and those from Iraq
they have a place called
that and everyone knows these
places so they when they're coming it's
like a ring surrounding the holy shrines
the sacred shrines those coming from the
East those coming from the north those
coming from the south those coming from
the West Etc now the astonishing part
is when the prophet sallallahu alhi
wasallam named these
maak the 11th area countries Lebanon
Jordan Palestine
Syria and the
likes were not
Muslim they did not accept
Islam it was conquered by the
byzantian yet the prophet Salli wasallam
said when people come
to perform or from this that region they
have to assume their
from
Al and this shows you that the prophet
knew sallallahu alaihi wasallam that the
whole area would accept Islam like Iraq
and the likes and that Muslims would
come in their hundreds of thousands and
millions to perform Hajj every single
year so
these places designated
places it is 420 kilomet away from Mecca
and it's known
as it is the mik for the people coming
from uh the 11 countries from Turkey
from Egypt from Morocco and the likes so
it is close to a city known as
and it's about
186 kilometers away from Mecca nowadays
nobody inhabits
ala
and the inhabitants of alah at the time
of the Prophet were disbelievers and the
prophet asked Allah to take the
illness that people caught whenever they
traveled to Medina from outside of
Medina in to take it and throw it at ala
so the people of ala so happened to have
perished and now nobody lives there so
nowadays people assume their from a city
a bit further away from Mecca known
as number three the people of Yemen
coming from the south have the mik of
Y and is 120 km away from
Mecca and it is known
as today so people coming from the south
they perform
their there as for the people from the
east from n from and those who come
adjacent to it they do their from it's
about 75 kilometers away from Mecca and
known today as a saale
Al and finally the people coming from
irq and the likes there's a Valley known
as that and it's 100 kilometers away
from Mecca and it's
called or something like that these are
the designated locations and it is not
recommended to perform
youram way way before that that is not
something from the sun it's Mak so if
someone coming from London and he says
okay I'm going to wear my and say my T
from my home in East
London or from
Cairo itself which is couple of hours
maybe
more before reaching the mikat this is
not recommended yes you can wear youram
but still in the state of halal you can
clip your fingernails you can uh trim
your uh hair you can wear perfumes
though you look as if you are on your
pilgrimage but you're not yet state in
the state ofam intentionally so there's
no problem in uh uh doing that but once
you come to theam you have to assume
youram there a little bit while flying
the uh Captain would announce that we're
one minute before the Zone this is when
you
say or you
say and Allah Knows Best
