When You reach the gate of the Holy Ka’ba, pray for Muhammad and his holy progeny (a.s.) and say between Rukn-ul-Yamaani and the Black Stone: O Allah! grant me goodness in this world and the Hereafter and save me from the fire of Hell).

During tawaf, on reaching the door of the Kaaba in each circumambulation (round) recite this dua commencing with salwaat:

SAAILUKA FAQIIRUKA MISKIINUKA BIBAABIKA FATASADDAG ALAIHI BILJANNATI. ALLAHUMMA ALBAITU BAITUKA WALHARAMU HARAMUKA WALABDU ABDUKA WAHADHAA MAQAAMUL AAIDHIBIKAL MUSTAJIIRI BIKA MINANNARI FAATIQNII WAWAALIDAIYA WAAHLII WAWULDIYA WAIKHWANIYAL MUMININA MINANNARI YAA JAWADUU YA KARIMU.

And say during tawaf:

  Imam Sadiq (a.s.) has said that when Ali bin Hussein (a.s.) reached the Hijr (enclosure) of Ismail (a.s.) before reaching the Meezaab, he would raise his head and say while looking at the Meezaah:

ALLAHUMMA ADKHILNIIL JANNATA WA AJIRNII MINANNARI BIRAHMATIKA WAAFINII MINNASUQMI WAAWSIA ALAYYA MIARRIZKIL HALALI WADRA ANNII SHARRA FASAQATIL JINNI WALINSI WASHARAA FASAQATIL ARABI WALAJAMI.

It has been authentically reported from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) that when You reach the back of the Holy Ka’ba having passed the Hijr (enclosure), say:

It has been reported from Abul Hassan Ridha (a.s.) that on reaching the Rukn-ul-Yamaani, one should raise hands in supplication and say:

It has been reported from Abi Adillah (a.s.) that when the pilgrim completes the tawaf and reaches the ‘Mustajaar’ which is a little before the Rukn-ul-Yamaani, he must stretch his hands onto the Holy Ka’ba, cling to it and say:

(O Allah! this House is Yours and this creature is Yours and this is the place for taking refuge in You from the fire of Hell).

          Then make confession of your sins for there is no faithful who makes confessions to his Lord in this place without Allah forgiving him, Allah willing, and say:

(O Allah! comfort, success and health come form You. O Allah! my devotions are weak and so grant them strength and forgive me the sins which are so apparent to You but concealed from Your creatures).

Then seek refuge in Allah from the fire of Hell and engross yourself in supplication. Then hold the Rukn-ul-Yamaani as is stated in another report from him (a.s.). Then kiss the Rukn-ul-Yamaani and the corner where the Black Stone is placed and say:

(O Allah! grant me contentment in the sustenance You have provided me and bestow Your blessings on it).

It is recommended to hold on to each corner of the Holy Ka’ba in each tawaf and when holding the Black Stone say:

(I have discharged the trust reposed with me and fulfilled my promise so that You can be the witness of my fulfillment).

Then facing the front of Kaaba raising the hands say this:

ALHAMDULLAHIL LAZII SHARRAFKI WAAZZAMAKI WALHAMDULLILLAHIIL LAZII BAASA MUHAMMADAN NABIYYAN WAJAALA ALLIYUN IMAMAN. ALLAHUMMAHDI LAHU KHIYARA KHALQIKA WAJANNIBHU SHIRAARA KHALKIQA.

In the 7th round t Mustajar (behind Kaaba and a little before Rukh-e-Yamaani.) One must stop a little and spread both the hands on the walls of Kaaba and with the face and body touching the wall, should say the following dua:

ALLAHUMA ALBAITU BAITUKA WALABDU ABDUKA WAHADHAA MAQQAMUL AAIDHI BIKA MINNANNARI. ALLAHUMA MIN QIBALIKA-RRAWHU WALFARAJU WALAAFIYAUTU.

I am before You and my forelock is in Your hands. Forgive my sins for there is none to forgive major sins except You. Forgive me as I confess my sins against myself and none can avert cardinal sins except You).

          It is recommended to drink water from Zamzam before departing to Safa and say:  (O Allah! grant me useful knowledge, abundant sustenance and spare me all sickness and evil).

          If possible, on completing the prayer after tawaf, one should draw a bucket or two of water from Zamzam, drink a little and pour a little on the head, back and body and say the supplication mentioned above. Then one must proceed to the Black Stone and from there to Safa.

O Allah! deal with me as it befits You and if You would do so, You would have mercy on me. You are free from any need to punish me but I am in need of Your mercy, have mercy on me

O Allah! do not deal with me as I deserve, for if You do so, You will punish me without being unjust to me. I fear Your justice but have no fear of injustice from You. O One who is absolutely Just, have mercy on me

On the 4th step facing Kaaba recite the following duas:

ALLAHUMMA INNII AUDHUBIKA MIN ADHABIL QABRI WAFITNATIHI WAGHURBATIHI WA WAHSHATIHI WAZULMATIHI WAZIIQIHI WAZANKIHI. ALLAHUMMA AZILLINII FII ZILLI ARSHIKA YAWMA LAA ZILLA ILLA ZILLUKA

It has been reported from Abi Adillah (a.s.) that if one seeks to increase one’s wealth, one should wuqufat Safa longer. It is recommended to perform the sa’y by walking in peace and dignity. When men reach the first minaret, they should hasten the pace till the location of the second minaret. There is no such recommendation for women. Then one should continue to walk with peace and awe till one arrives at Marwah where one should repeat what was done at Safa and return from Marwah to Safa in the same manner. 

When reaching the Minara of Haarwalla (green pillar) recite the following:

BISMILLAHI WABILLAHI WAKKAHU AKBER WASALLALLAHU ALAA MUHAMMADIN WAAHLI BAITIHI. ALLAHUMMA IGHFIR WARHAM WATAJAWAZ AMMA TAALAMU INNAKA ANTAL AAZUL AKRAM WAHDINII LILLATII HIYA AQWAMU. ALLAHUMMA INNA AMALII ZAIIFUN FAZAAIFHU LII WATAQABBAL MINNII. ALLAHUMMA LAKA SAAYII WABIKA HAWLII WAQUWWATII WATAQABBAL MINNII AMALII YAMAN YAQBALU AMALAMUTTAQIIN.

On going beyond the second (green) pillar say the following:

YADHA MANII WALFAZLI WALKARAMI WANAAMAAI WALJUUDI IGHFIRLII DHUNUBII INNAHU LAA YAGHFIRUDDHUNUBA ILLA ANTA.

And on reaching Marwa (hill) recite all the duas which have been mentioned for Safaa and say this dua too:

ALLAHUMMA YAMAN AMARA BILAFWI YAMAN YUHIBBUL AFWA YA MAN YUATII ALAAL AFWI YAMAN YAAFUU ALAAL AFWI YA RABBAL AFWA ALAFWAL ALAFWA.

During Saee one must cry and recite this throughout:

ALLAHUMMA INNII ASALUKA HUSNA-ZZANI BIKA ALAA KULLI HAALIN WASIDKAN-NIYAATI FITTAWAKKULI ALAIKA.

              At the well of Zam Zam after puring water on the face and back and drinking it recite this:

ALLAHUMMAJALHU ILMAN NAAFIAN WARIZKAN WAASIAN WASHIFAAN MIN KULLI DAAIN WASUQMIN.

After this one should go to perform Saee and at Safaa (Hill) facing Khana-e-kaaba say 7 times:

LAA ILAHA ILLALLAH.

COURTESIES IN IHRAM DURING WUQUF AT ARAFAT

Whatever has been stated above in respect of the courtesies in a state of ihram during Umrah, apply equally to a state of ihram in Hajj.After wearing the Ehram for Hajj when one leaves for Arafat, then on nearing Mina recite the following:

ALLAHUMMA IYYAKA ARJUU WAIYYAKA ADUU FABALLIGHNI AMALII ASLIH LII AMALII.

On the way one must busy oneself doing tasbeeh and zikr of Allah and on arriving at Mina say the following dua:

ALLAHUMDULILLAHIL-LAZII AQDA MANIIHA SAALIHAN FII AAFIYATIN WABALLAGHANII HADHAL MAKANA. ALLAHUMMA HADHIHI MINAA WAHIYA MIMMA MANANTA BIHI ALAINA MINAL MANASIKI FAASALUKA AN TAMUNNA ALAIYYA BIMA MANANTA ALAA ANBIYAAIKA FAINNAMA ANA ABDUKA WAFII QABZATIKA.

And then on proceeding towards Arafat read this dua:

ALLAHUMMA ILAIKA SAMADTU WAIYYAKA-ATAMADTU WAWAJHAKA ARADTU ASALUKA AN TABARIKA LII FII RIHLATII WATAQZIYA LII HAAJATII WAAN TAJAALANII MIMMAN TUBAHII BIHIL YAWMA MAN HUWA AFZALU MINNII.

When one has worn the ihram for hajj and departed from Makkah, one must say the Talbiyah on the way but not in a loud voice till one reaches Abtah when it must be said aloud. When one heads for Mina, one should say:(O Allah! I place all my hopes in You and supplicate to You. Fulfill my hopes and put my actions in order).

Then proceed to Mina peacefully and with respect, engrossed in remembrance of Allah; on reaching there, say:(All praise is due to Allah who brought me to Mina in sound health and got me thus far).

Then say:(O Allah! this is Mina where You have graced us with performance of ceremonies. I beseech You for the grace You have bestowed on Your Prophets, for I am one of your servants and in Your power).

It is recommended that the eve of Arafat be spent in Mina in worship; its preferred form is prayer in the Mosque at Kheef. After dawn, one must continue in prayer till sunrise and then move to Arafat. When one turns to Arafat, one should say:(O Allah! I turn to You, repose trust in You and seek Your pleasure. I beseech You to bless my journey, fulfill my wishes and include me among those superior to me whom You honour today).

COURTESIES OF WUQUF AT ARAFAT

A number of matters have been recommended during the wuquf (stay) at Arafat and some of them are:

Eve of A'rafah | A'maal of the Day of A'rafah

Imam Hussain (as) 's A'rafah Dua |  Imam Sajjad(as)'s A'rafah Dua

1) Cleanlines (taharah) during the stay.(2) Ghusl at zawaal.(3) Continuous supplication and remembrance of Allah.(4) Wuqufon the flat land to the left of the mountain.(5) Joining the two prayer of Dhuhr and Asr with one adhan and two iqamaas (6) Recitation of supplication, the most famous of which is ones attributed to Imam Hussain (a.s.) and his son Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.) which will be set out.

          It has been authentically reported from Mu’awiyah bin Ammar that Abi Abdillah (a.s.) stated, “Hasten to your prayer and gather yourselves to indulge in supplications for it is a day of supplications and prayer. Then find yourself a place where you can have peace, and with solemnity praise and glorify the Oneness of Allah. Recite the Allahu Aakbar a hundred times, the Alhamda Lillah a hundred times, Subhanallah a hundred times. Then recite the Chapter of Ikhlas a hundred times, followed by supplications of your choice.

          One must make great effort to indulge in worship for it is a day for supplications and seeking refuge with Allah from Shaitan (Satan) who does not spare opportunity to divert your attention, especially on that day. One must not engage in looking at others, but be concerned with oneself and say:

ALLAHUMA INNII ABDUKA FALA TAJAALNII MIN AKHYABI WAFDIKA WARHAM MASIIRII ILAIKA MINAL FAJJIL AMLIQ. ALLAHUMA RABBAL MASHAAIRI KULIIHA FUKKA RAQABATII MINANNARI WAAWSIA ALAIYYA MIN RIZQIKAL HALALI WADRAA ANNII SHARRA FASAQATIL JINNI WALINSI. ALLAHUMMA LATAMKUR BII WALA TAKHDAANII WALA TASTADRIJNII. ALLAHUMMA INNI ASALUKA BIHAWLIKA WAJUDIKA WAKARAMIKA WAMANNIKA WAFAZLIKA. YA ASMAASSAMIIN. YA ABSARAN-NAZRIIN. YA ASRAAL HAASIBIN. YA ARHAMARRAHIMIN. AN TUSALLI ALAA MUHAMADIN WAALI MUHAMMADIN WAAN TAFALBII.

          O Allah! I am Your servant. Do not include among those who do not hope to be close to You. Have mercy on my having traveled to You from far-flung nook.O Allah! the Sustainer of all the places for the ceremonies. Spare me the fire of Hell, increase my sustenance from lawful sources and keep me away from harm, from the evil ones among the jinn and mankind.O Allah! I ask You by Your power, generosity, charity, favour and bestowal, O the Best of the Listeners, the Greatest of those who see, the Quickest in taking account and the most Merciful of the merciful, shower Muhammad and his progeny with Your blessings and grant me (and then ask your wishes).

          Then, raising your head towards the sky, say:

ALLAHUMMA HAAJATII ILAIKAL-LATII IN AATAITANIIHA LAM YAZURRANII MAA MAHAATA WAIN MANAATANIHA LAM YANFAANII MAA AATAITA ASALUKA KHALAASA RAQABATI MINANAAR.

   O Allah! I have a wish which if You grant will not affect what You have refused me but if You reject that wish, I will not benefit from anything else You grant me. I pray to You to spare me the fire of Hell). O Allah! I am Your slave and belong to You, my forelock is in Your hands, my destiny is in the domain of Your knowledge. I seek that I do what would please You and accept from me the performance of the rituals which You showed to Your friend, Ibrahim (a.s.), and, by them, guided Your Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.). O Allah! include me among those whose actions have pleased You, whose lives You have elongated and granted them life after death pure lives).

Then say the following supplication taught by the Holy Messenger (s.a.w.) to Ali (a.s.) as reported by Muawiyah bin Ammar from Abi Abdillah (a.s.):

WALLAHU AKBERU WAMA SHAALLAHU LAA QUWWATA ILLAA BILLAHI ASHHADUAN LAA ILAHA ILLALLAHU WAHDAHU LAA SHARIKA LAHU LAHUL MULKUL WALAHUL HAMDU YUHYII WAYUMIITU WAHUWA HAYYUN LAA YAMUUTU BIYADIHIL KHAIRU WAHUWA ALAA KULLI SHAIIN QADIR.

There is no God but Allah, He is One without any partner. Al properly belongs to Him, all praise is due to Him. He grants life and death and death and life. He is eternally living and does not die. All good is in his hands and He has power over all things. All praise is due to You as You state, for what You state is better than any other statement. O Allah! my prayer, worship, living and death are for You. All the power with me is from You and all my strength is from You. 

O Allah! I seek refuge in You from poverty, wicked intentions, adversity of affairs, the fire of Hell and the torments of the grave. O Allah! I seek from You the goodness that comes from the wind, and seek refuge from the evil caused by the wind, and the goodness from the day and night).

Among the supplications reported by Abdullah bin Maymoon from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) is that, during his wuqufin Arafat, the Holy Messenger (s.a.w.) used to say at the time of sunset before departure:

ALLAHUMMA INNII AUDHUBIKA MINAL FAQRI WAMIN TASHATTUTIL AMRI WAMIN SHARRI MAA YAHDISU BILLAILI WANNAHARI AMSAA KHWAFII MUSTAJIIRAN BIAMAANIKA WAAMSAA DHULLII MUSTAJIRAN BIIZZATIKA WAAMSAA WAJHIYAL FAANI MUSTAJIRAN BIWAJHIKAL BAAQIL YA KHAIRA MAN SUILA WAYA AJWADA MAN AATAA YA ARHAMA MANI-STURHIMA JALLILNII BIRAHMATIKA WASRIF ANNII SHARRA JAMIIE KHALQIKA.

   O Allah! I seek refuge in You from poverty, adverse affairs, the evils of night and day. Let my transgressions be sheltered by Your forgiveness, my fear by Your security, my abasement by Your honour and my mortality by Your eternity. O the Best from whom to seek and the Most Generous to give, envelope me with Your mercy, clothe me with health from You, and keep away from me the evil of all your creation).

      Abu Basir has reported from Abi Adillah (a.s.) that the following be said when the sun has set on the day of Arafat:

ALLAHUMA LAA TAJALHU AAKHIRAL AHDI MIN HADHAL MAWAQIFIL WARZUQNIIL AWDA ABADAN MAA ABQAITANII WAAQALIBNIIL YAWMA MUFLIHAN MUNJIAN MUSTAJAABAN LII MARHUUMAN MAGHFUURAN LII BIAFZALI MAAYANQALIBU BIHIL YAWMA AHADUN MIN WAFDIKA WAHUJJAJI BAITIKAL HARAMI WAJAALNIIL YAWMA MIN AKRAMI WAFDIKA ALAIKA WAATINII AFZALAL MAA AATAITA AHADAN MINHUM MINAL KHAIRI WALBARAKATI WARRAHMATI WARRIZWAANI WALMAGHFIRATI WABARIK LII FII MAA ARJIU ILAIHI MIN AHLIN AWMAALIN AWQALLIILIN AWKASIRIIN WABARIK LAHUM FIYAA.

Do not make this my last wuquf in this place and grant me future visits to this place so long as I live and make my wuquf successful and providing for me salvation, mercy and forgiveness better than the day has provided to the other guests and pilgrim to Your Holy House. Make me today the most honourable of Your visitors, grant me more goodness, prosperity, mercy and forgiveness more than You have granted any of them. On my return, bless me with children, wealth little or more, and make me a blessing for them too).

On the day of Arafat after saying Zohrain prayers at awal-e-waqt (on exact time) facing Qibla:

ALLAHU AKBER. ALHAMDULILLAHI. SUBHANALAHI. LAA ILAHA ILLALLAHU – AYATUL KURSI – INNA ANZALNAHU – LA HAWLA WALA QUUWATA ILLA BILLAH – QUL HUWALLAH. (RECITE EACH OF THESE A 100 TIMES)

Then recite the last verse (Ayat) of Sura –e- Hashr and the following :

ASALUKU YA ALLAHU YA RAHMANU BIKULLI ISMIN HUWA LAKA WAASALUKA BIQUWWATIKA WAIZZATIKA WAJAMIIE MAA-AHAATA BIHI ILMUKA WABI ARKANIKA KULLIHA WABIHAQQI RASULIKA SALWAATUKA ALAIHI WAALIHI WABISMIKAL AKBERIL AKBER WABISMIKAL AZIIMIL-LAZII MAN DAAKA BIHI KAANA HAQQAN ALAIKA AN LAA TARUDDAHU WAAN TUATIYAHU MAA SAALAKA AN TAGHFIRALII JAMIA DHUNUUBII FII JAMIIE ILMIKA FII.

repeat this very often: ALAHUMA AATIQNII MINANNAR.

O Allah! Lord of the Holy Mash’ar, spare me the fire of Hell, increase my lawful sustenance and keep me away from the harm of the evil ones among the jinn and mankind. O Allah! You are the best to turn to, the best to beseech, and the best to be supplicated to. There is a reward for every visitor, and in this place, I aspire that my reward be that You forgive my slips, accept my plea, forgive my sins, and make piety my provision from this world).

I have not brought today a weighty load of good deeds while approaching You nor do I hope from intercession of other people, but I turn to You, confessing the wrongs I have done to myself without an excuse. I implore You, as You are worthy, to send Your blessings on Muhammad and his progeny, grant me what I seek to gain from You. Forgive my wrongs, fulfil my wishes, and do not return me rejected, denied or disappointed. O Great, O Great, O Great! I have great hopes in You and beg You, O Great! to forgive my grave sins There is no God, but You).

          It is recommended to say three times (Allahu Akbar) at the time of emerging from the Holy Ka’ba, saying this du’a (supplication):         (O Allah! do not afflict us with tribulations. O our Sustainer, do not let our enemies rejoice at our misfortunes; verily, You are the one to bring damage and benefit).Then come out of Holy Ka’ba and, facing it with the ladder to the left, say two raka’as by the ladder.

FAREWELL TAWAF

It is recommended that, upon leaving Makkah, the pilgrim perform a tawaf of farewell. (tawaf-ul-widaa). In each round he should salute the Hajar-ul-Aswad and Rukn-ul-Yamani. He should perform the recommended acts already set out on reaching the Mustajaar. He should state his wishes. He should then salute the Hajar-ul-Aswad and press his abdomen to the Holy Ka’ba. He should hold the Hajar-ul-Aswad with one hand and the door of the Holy Ka’ba with the other. Then he should thank and praise Allah, pray for the Holy Prophet and his progeny and then say:

O Allah! have mercy on Muhammad, Your slave, Messenger, Prophet, Trusted, Beloved, Noble and the best of Your creation. O Allah! just as he delivered Your message, fought in Your cause, accomplished Your commands and worshipped You to his last, O Allah! turn my fortunes around by granting me success, salvation,
