ADVICE

Time Your Fajr And Departure Wisely

  • Pray Fajr at the very beginning of its time and generally wait until Fajr before departing Mina for Eid rituals.
  • Those who must leave earlier (women, elderly, sick) may go before Fajr but the group should usually stay together.
ADVICE

Prioritize Stoning, Sacrifice, Then Tawaf

  • On the day of Eid prioritize stoning Jamratul Aqaba and arranging the sacrifice before worrying about the main tawaf.
  • Exit ihram (shave/trim) after stoning and sacrifice; tawaf al-ifadah can be done over the next days.
ADVICE

Skip Tawaf On Eid If Possible

  • Avoid attempting the main tawaf on the 10th if possible because it's extremely crowded and difficult.
  • Plan to perform tawaf al-ifadah on the 11th–13th or arrange exceptions for the elderly and sick.
