Transcript
Settle Debts Or Get Permission
- Pay off your debts before Hajj when possible and seek forgiveness spiritually for owed sins.
- If you must go while owing money, get the creditor's permission and ensure no payment delay will result.
Finalize Your Will And Carry Duas
- Prepare a legally valid will (wasiyah) before departing because Hajj mimics facing death.
- Carry a small dua handbook like Fortress of the Muslim for authentic prayers during Hajj and Arafah.
Pack Meds, Vitamins, And Vaseline
- Bring basic medications, immune boosters, and items like Vaseline for men in ihram to prevent chafing.
- Rest before the main Hajj days and avoid overexerting yourself to reduce getting sick.
