One person came into the presence of Hazrat Junaid and he has asked from where he is coming.? He told him that “He is coming from Makkah after performing Hajj pilgrimage.” He told him “Whether you have performed Hajj pilgrimage then he has said “Yes.” And he has asked him that “When you have started Hajj pilgrimage journey whether you have left sins or not,”? And he told him that “ No.” Then he told him that “You did not travel from your place to Makkah”.Again he has asked him “When you have travel on the journey and you have stayed in the night in every destination. Whether you have crossed any destination of reality.? “And he told him “No.”When you have worn (Ahram) Hajj dress from Meqat (one of the four places in Arabic where pilgrims done prescribed robe) whether you have left humanly attributes. And that person told “ No.”He told him that “ Then you have not to wear Ahram”.Then he asked him “When you have stood in the mountain of Arafat whether you have felt the presence of your existence in the place of observation?.” And he told “No”.He told him that “Then you have not stood in the plain of Arafat. He has asked him “When your reached Muzdalfa and got your aim and have you left all your wishes.?” He told him that “No.” So he told him that “You have not stayed in Muzdalfa.” He has asked him “When you did the circumambulation of holy Kaba whether you have found by your eyes of innermost that Allah is free from all defects. And at this place have you observed elegance of the majestic of Allah.” He told “No.” He told him that “ You have not done circumambulation of the holy Kaba in Makkah.” He asked with him “When you did Sai (Sa’i is the ritualistic walking between the two mountains of Safa and Marwah which are the symbols of Allah. This is a ritual common to both the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimage.)

He told him that” You have not performed Sai in between the mountain of Safa and Marawah.” Then he has asked him “When you have reached Muna whether all your wishes were finished away or not.?” And he told him “No”. Then he has asked, “When you have sacrificed the animal whether you have also sacrificed the sensual desires ”?.He told him” No.” “So you have not sacrificed your animal.” Again he has asked, “When you have thrown pebbles at the Satan whether you have thrown pebbles on your sensual desires.?” He told him “No.” Hazrat Junaid told him that “You did not throw pebbles on the Satan nor you have got the facility of Hajj pilgrimage. You go back and perform the Hajj pilgrimage again as per the method shown by me.
