Hajj 2022 update

Tawaf

Assalamu ‘Alaykum

We are working hard to finalize details of Hajj 2022. Alhamdulillah, we have received preliminary confirmations of some students who will be able to perform Hajj this year. However, few uncertainties still loom and due to which we are unable to provide complete confirmations.

What we know:

  • There are new regulations introduced to limit the number of local hujjaj this year
  • Cost of Qurbani / Udhiya has gone up since 2019 (the last time there was an open Hajj)
  • Hajj fees payable to Saudi Government and local authorities have gone up significantly (multiple times in some cases)

What we don’t know:

  • Added costs from the government or hajj authorities
  • Cost of new digital devices required for tracking of Hujjaj etc.
  • Any last minute rules/regulations forbidding some Makkah locals from performing Hajj

We are working hard to solve some of the above uncertainties as well as other logistical issues. We hope to be able to serve all those interested in Hajj Badal this year – if Allah allows.

Next update:

In Sha Allah we will post another update by June 10th, 2022.

Ramadan Umrah: Closed

Ramadan night Makkah

Due to historic amount of travellers to Makkah, most roads to the Masjid al Haram are now closed. The crowd of this size has never been seen before in Makkah.

As a result, we are unable to fulfill anymore Umrahs this Ramadan. If you wish to book Umrah Badal, In Sha Allah we can perform after the days of Eid-Al-Fitr 2022.

Eid Al-Fitr 2022 is expected to be on Monday May 2nd, 2022. We wish you and your families blessed remaining days of Ramadan and a joyous Eid.

Umrah Badal in last 10 nights of Ramadan!

Umrah picture

Alhamdulillah, we are blessed to have the opportunity to fulfill many Umrah Badals this Ramadan. We are on the first week of Ramadan and already completed over 10 Umrah Badals!

May Allah accept it from our brothers and sisters and reward those intended.

On the same note, we are now accepting requests to perform Umrah Badal in the last 10 days of Ramadan. Most of the Umrahs are performed at night (due to the heat), so it is possible that Umrah for your loved one may be performed on the laylatul Qadr!

Proofs of permissibility

From time to time, we get questions about whether this service is permissible according to the Shari’ah or not. For your convenience, we have gathered a number of resources for you to read. We welcome you to discuss the topic with your local imam as well. Our advisors consist of Imams who follow various schools of thoughts (Hanafi, Shafi’ee, etc.) and they have all approved this service.

From the Qur’an:
Allah Almighty says, “Hajj to the House is a duty owed to Allah by all mankind – those who can find a way to do it. But if anyone rejects, Allah is Rich beyond need of any being.” –QURAN: SURAT ‘ĀLI `IMRĀN (3:97)
This verse stipulates ‘Hajj as a duty to Allah for all of mankind.

From the Sunnah / ‘Ahadith:
It was reported from Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a woman from Juhaynah came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said:“My mother vowed to go for Hajj, but she did not go for Hajj before she died. Should I do Hajj on her behalf?” He said, “Yes, do Hajj on her behalf. Do you not think that if your mother was in debt you would pay it off for her? Pay off the debt that is owed to Allah, for Allah is more deserving that what is owed to Him should be paid off.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari, 1754).

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) heard a man saying “Labbayka ‘an Shubrumah (At your service, O Allaah, on behalf of Shubrumah).” The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Who is Shubrumah?” He said, “A relative of mine.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Have you ever done Hajj before?” He said, “No.” he said, “Do this Hajj for yourself, then do Hajj on behalf of Shubrumah.” (Narrated by Abu Dawood, 1811; Ibn Majah, 2903 – this version was narrated by him. The hadeeth was classed as saheeh.
