Differences Between The Different Types of Hajj
Differences Between The Different Types of Hajj
Before performing the rites, the pilgrim should decide whether he/she will
only perform Hajj (Al-Ifrad), (single), or he/she will make a combination
between Hajj and Umrah (Hajj Al-Tamattu, Al-Qiran). Hajj Al-Ifrad means
entering into Ihram only for the Hajj.
Hajj Al-Tamattu means entering into Ihram for the Umrah, taking Ihram off after
performing the Umrah, and then entering into Ihram again for the Hajj. Hajj Al-Qiran
means entering into Ihram for both Hajj and Umrah at the same time not taking off
for the Ihram until the 8th of Dhul-Hijjah.
