Haj Committee - Smoking in Mecca
Mecca - A pilgrims from Turkey greeted us in a radius of 200 meters from the Grand Mosque, on Friday (5 / 11) after Fajr. Only one which he said: Have a cigarette. One of us who were smoking were soon stretched out his cigarette pack, give it a trunk and helped lit cigarette.
There is no right for us to smoke near the Grand Mosque. Anti-smoking poster posted at several locations around the Grand Mosque. Radius of five kilometers from the Grand Mosque is the area smoke-free. Selling cigarettes in this area was dilarng. This program began to be intensified this year. But, there are secretly in the courtyard of the mosque was they lit a cigarette.
"We need cooperation from the pilgrims to make the two Holy Cities into the lowest as tobacco consumed in the world," said Dr. Sameer Al-Sabban, executive director of the Anti-Smoking Campaign in Makkah, was quoted as saying "arabnews" beginning this November.
Because of the ban, looking for cigarettes in Makkah was not an easy job. Any shopkeeper who found, always shook his head when asked about the cigarette. Before you know the location where tobacco is sold, half an hour around Mecca not necessarily get a cigarette. One night, we even have to go to Mecca pekampungan slums inhabited by many people of Indonesia. Ketemulah cigarettes there.
Each met pilgrims who had just come from Indonesia, do not forget we asked about cigarettes. Then share your happiness if there is also carrying cigarettes. But, there are also pilgrims jutsru request to us. "We can not take it. All discarded while still in the hostel, because practically not allowed to bring cigarettes," said a pilgrim.
I am not a smoker, but my friends while in Makkah, most of the smokers. Of the 10 people, only two people yng not smoke. Before leaving, they are determined to quit smoking in the Holy Land. But, apparently it is hard to do. "If the mouth was seared, smoked any cigarettes, just to eliminate the sour taste has long since not smoking it," said a friend who smoked.
For Al-Sabban, Mecca is the ideal place to stop smoking. Each year, one million of five million people who died because of smoking, is a Muslim. "This is mainly because of their lavish lifestyle and lack of knowledge about the dangers of smoking," said Al-Sabban.
For people who realize the ill effects of cigarettes, said Al-Sabban, pilgrimage is an ideal opportunity to quit smoking. In Saudi Arabia, an estimated 35-40 percent over the age of 15 years has been a smoker. Of the total male students aged 13-15 years, about 24 percent are smokers.
For female students, there are an estimated eight percent were smokers. More than 15 cigarettes a mylar burned every year in Saudi Arabia. Value reached 168 million U.S. dollars.
The amount that makes Saudi Arabia as the country's fourth largest tobacco consumed in the world.
So, since 2005, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has joined in the agreement antitembakau.
Billboards and posters following the anti-smoking clinic information on anti-smoking and smoking bans fatwas posted in various places. Buses of pilgrims were attached information. A school which we had visited, I and a friend who is also non-smokers - also display a poster of the dangers of cigarettes on school walls.
A teacher then showed the ki poster and say how dangerous tobacco. I'm sure he shows it to us because we are from Indonesia. They know, Indonesian people are smokers. Indonesian pilgrims who much smoking, representing that notion. With direct straightforward we say, we were both non-smokers, so the teacher was immediately divert our attention from the poster.
Ministry of Health also provides six clinics antimerokok to help the pilgrims. Clinics that provide free services, for both men and woman smoker. This is also part of the anti-smoking campaign.
A scout team and health workers have been deployed in the Grand Mosque to help raise awareness about the dangers of tobacco. In Jamarat too, they have similar tugs. "Unfortunately, smokers gathered in the back side of the Great Mosque for a smoke, because it is harmful to the environment around the Holy City," said Al-Sabban.
Going to the Grand Mosque, cigarettes in the bag was checked. A friend found out at the top there is a pack of cigarettes. Because not being smoked, yes no problem smoking was still taken. (Priyantono Oemar / MCH mecca)

Hopefully that will be done Hajj rituals into one that can provide lessons and guidelines to enhance our faith and charity toward the street next to the chosen of God for our happiness in the world and the hereafter.

It also was an extraordinary sacrifice of convention-discharge ibadt other places of worship in our lives over the years, such as praying five times can be done in the home, the fan or air-conditioned rooms, as well as fast and even lie down, lie down to sleep in the room shall comfortable with not having to leave home.
Pilgrimages not allow one to achieve the requirements are so easy to worship with, we must bring ourselves to the Holy Land with the situation outside of the box. In other words, we must come out of convention and convenience received over the years, in which the situation in the Holy Land does not provide an opportunity for us to enjoy the comforts of home. We had to camp at Mina, Arafat and the whites in the desert memperkata and whispered something to ask God for forgiveness and a pleasure to return to Him.

Allah says in surah Al-Haj, verse 27 to 29, meaning: "And they invite people to perform Hajj, they will mendatangimu on foot and riding various lean camel. They come from all over the region, much to their saw many things of benefit to them, and they can remember the name of Allah on appointed days, because Allah has given them the animals as livestock for sacrifice.

Haj Committee - History of The Pilgrims
Historically, the pilgrimage was brought by the laws of our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW as renew and continue the teachings of Prophet Ibrahim AS Pilgrimages began compulsory for Muslims in the AH-6, according to the mashur haul with verse 97 of Sura Al-Imran says:
"And Allah requires that people do pilgrimage to the House of the wealthy and powerful who came to him and anyone who disbelieves the duty of the hajj, Allah is Rich, and does not require anything out of all creation."
In the Prophet Muhammad along with about 1500 people went to Mecca for pilgrimage, but can not do it because has been prevented by the Quraysh until establishing an agreement, called the agreement Hudaibiah.
The agreement paves the way for the development of Islam in which the following year (Year-on-7 Hijrah), Allah has been performing together in 2000 the Muslims. In the AH-9 did not perform Hajj can be performed in which the Prophet ordered Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, head of 300 Muslim pilgrims.
Prophet Muhammad Hajj
Our Prophet Muhammad SAW was pilgrimage once during his lifetime. Hajj is called "Hijjatul Farewell / Hijjatul Balagh / Hijjatul Hijjatuttamam Wal Kamal Islam or because after the pilgrimage was not long after he passed away. He has left for the day Madinatul Munawwarah Saturday, 25 Zulkaedah year 10 AH and his wife and his friends of over 90,000 people of Islam.
He had completed the recommended practices of Ihram, and intend to wear ihram ihram in Zulhulaifah, now known by the name of Bir Ali, 10 km from Madinah, and he arrived in Mecca on 04-Hijjah after taking the ninth day of the trip. He went to Mina at 08 Hijjah and staying there.
Next to Arafat for the 09-Hijjah berwukuf the fall on Friday. Prophet Muhammad had completed all the mandatory rule and the pilgrimage to 13-Hijjah. And the 14-Hijjah, the Prophet was leaving Makkah Al-Mukarramah heading back to Madinah Al-Munawwarah.
CURRENT EVENTS HIJJATUL WADA '
In the wukuf are some important events that may be holding and guide Muslims have occurred, among the following:
Prophet Muhammad on a camel milk to be viewed by the public that day that there is no fasting or not fasting on the day wukuf circumcision.
A friend fell from tunganggannya animals died, the Prophet ordered that the corpse was shrouded with 2 ihram cloth and not allow their heads and bodies covered or diwangikan kafannya. Holy Prophet at that time that the "Friends of the to be raised at the last day of the pilgrimage and Talbiah ".
Prophet Muhammad Najdi a question that asks "What is the Hajj?". Saying that means "Hajj is Arafat stopped." Who arrived at Arafat before dawn 10 Zulhijjah then he has performed the hajj.
This verse of Al-Karim Al-Quranul anymore, which means:
"On this day I have perfected your religion for you and completed My favor upon you, and I was pleased with Islam as a religion for us"
From a brief history and events that we try carefully how the Prophet Muhammad had completed the pilgrimage to his sacrifice with the companions who walked from Madinah Al-Munawwarah to Makkah Al-Mukarramah for 9 days from today we can fly to the Land Holy less than 9 hours. This matter should be contemplated when we encounter any difficulties in the Holy Land soon.

Haj Committee - Definition Hajj
Hajj is a treatment that Muslims worship a lot of symbolic submitted to us in the form of self-assertion, or declaration of demonstrations, not to claim something that is kebendaaan or mundane, but the demonstration to express unity with slogans and cries of the holy word, Allahhu Press, Allah is Great , over and over again with confidence and faith in, the recognition of a clear and firm though not deny.
Declaration of faith is clear and the call of the firm is simultaneously the name of Allah, "Allah Humma Labayk Labbyk, Labbaykka La Syarikalak Labbayk, Innal Hamda al-Ni'mata Laka Wa wa al-Mulk, La Syarikalak", touted not because of a shortage, but expressions of worship in the form of a demonstration against polytheism, injustice and human error by not mentauhidkan God.
The attitude and stand firmly in the 'ubudiah that the teachings of the Anbia 'since time-immemorial have clearly declared that never shirk or not to engage with tanghut.
On the other hand worship Allah alone - myself, thinking, physical properties and nawaitunya only to God alone. Any form of distraction, polytheism or worship of the system that led to the false gods must be avoided.
Islam does not claim to respond to the attitude of the pervert faith, but to be Muslims, kindness and peace. However, if they often and continue to divert people from Allah mentauhidkan then created a religious practice in the overt forms of protest against the work of those who lost even though the pagans, the kuffar and not like munafiqun.

Haj Committee - Mina
1. Talk to others about their Mina experience before you leave for The Holy Land. It is better to be forewarned and prepared for the conditions that you may encounter.
2. "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong." Keep this principle in mind when you leave for Mina from Arafat. Staying in a tent that is next to the toilets, sleeping in a part of the tent which is besides the area where foul smelling garbage is piled up, half of the toilets without water supply in your tent area (happened to my group), pilgrims from countries with low civic consciousness messing up the toilets, overcrowded tents - these are some of the conditions that you may have to put up with during your 3-day stay in Mina. Some survival tips are listed below:a. plan your diet so that you don't have to go to the toilet frequently;
b. avoid idle talk which consists mostly of a tirade against the authorities for various shortcomings;
c. immerse yourself in various types of worship - reading The Qur'an, zikr, and duah. While these are not only the right things to do in Hajj, they will also help to keep your mind from being distracted by the shortcomings there;
d. you'll be able to spot individuals in your tent who are knowledgeable about Islam. Get close to them and seek clarifications about matters that are not clear to you. In the long run, you'll remember these meetings more than the difficulties your encountered in Mina.
e. remember to bring along a little pail. In the event of water supply failure to the toilets, you can use the pail to fetch water from other sources. (We relied on water from a fire hydrant hose).
Haj Committee - Arafah
1. Submission to Allah (swt) in Arafah does not have a prescribed outward act. You have to be there on the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah from Zuhr to sunset, that's all!
Wuquf (standing/staying) in Arafah in Hajj is really our second wuquf. Do you know about our first wuquf?
2. Some pilgrims miss out from reaping the full benefit of wuquf in Arafat during those approximately 5 1/2 hours.

2. Some pilgrims miss out from reaping the full benefit of wuquf in Arafat during those approximately 5 1/2 hours.
Most pilgrims pray, recite The Qur'an, zikr, and du'a in Arafah during those hours but some also chat, smoke or take a nap. There is a fair amount of such wasteful activities caused by a lack of understanding of wuquf. The quotes on the right side of this page should be sufficient inducement to pilgrims to regard their presence in Arafat as among the most precious times in their lives.
Read about a good way to prepare for The Day of Arafah.
4. Pilgrims should not fast on Arafah Day. It is not Sunnah.
5. Some Hajj groups skip Mina and proceed straight to Arafah to escape the traffic nightmare. You'll have to pack accordingly to meet your needs for a night and a day's stay in Arafah.
6. Bring along the following when you depart for Arafah: an extra pair of Ihram clothes; extra pair of glasses, mosquito repellent; foldable hand fan; foldable mat; plastic sheet (2 1/2' square); foldable umbrella; 2 bottles of 1 1/2 liter mineral water; torch and snacks.

7. The toilet facilities in the tent area that I stayed were adequate. It is still advisable to carry a mini pail with you to fetch water from other places just in case the tap runs dry in your place. (This happened in Mina in our tent area).
You may want to consider a diet of water, dates and fruits in Arafah as this will reduce the need to go to the toilet frequently. This diet may also help to keep you more alert and not make you feel 'sleepy'. You will thus have more time for ibadah.8. After Arafah, the next Hajj rite is at Muzdalifah. Prepare yourself psychologically for the possibility that you may not be able to perform this part of the Hajj rite. Instead of leaving Arafah after sunset, you may find yourself stranded in Arafah until the next morning because the bus to pick up your group did not turn up as planned.
9. If you are physically fit, consider walking to Muzdalifah. A two to three-hour walk is definitely better than an eight-hour imprisonment in a bus!
Haj Committee - Hajr Al Aswad
1. During the peak Hajj period, DO NOT attempt to kiss The Black Stone. The risk to your body is just too high. I've seen pilgrims coming out of this attempt dehydrated and in a daze; and I've been told some sustained injuries.
2. Even during the non-peak Hajj period, your chances of succeeding in this attempt within a 1 1/2-hour period are less than 50% even after midnight.
3. I hope the Saudi authorities will consider setting aside at least two days of the week exclusively for women who wish to touch/kiss this Stone. In the current circumstances, it is impossible for the majority of women pilgrims to do this.2. Even during the non-peak Hajj period, your chances of succeeding in this attempt within a 1 1/2-hour period are less than 50% even after midnight.
4. Kissing Hajr-al-Aswad for a fee of SR 450!!! I do not know whether this is a con job or a service provided by a syndicate. Some pilgrims have been approached discreetly by individuals offering this service. DO NOT accept this offer. Just make a niyah to kiss Hajr-al-Aswad. If it is in the will of Allah s.w.t. for you, it will happen.
I hope the authorities will take appropriate measures to root this out. When demand exceeds supply, "black market" will creep in and sadly, the Hajr-al-Aswad has not been spared this.
5. Between the Yamani corner and Hajr-al-Aswad, pilgrims recite the "Rabbana ... " du'a.
Haj Committee - A Good Pilgrim

Haj Committee - Hajj Expenses
1. The amount prepaid for the Hajj package usually includes return airfare, accommodation, meals, and internal bus trips. Get from your Hajj tour company the full details of all the services they provide.
2. Bring additional cash/travelers cheques for:
a) Telephone calls (cards and IDD booths);
b) Purchase of medicines and related items;
c) Laundry;
d) Food / snacks / drinks;

j) Charity;
k) Some additional cash to cover emergencies (for example, due to a crisis at home, the pilgrim may have to return immediately which may require additional airfare expenses); and
l) Purchase of clothes and other essentials if your baggage is lost in transit.
As can be seen from the above, a pilgrim needs a substantial amount of money to cover various expenses during his stay in The Holy Land.
The amount needed depends on several factors including the number of days the pilgrim will be staying in The Holy Land.
In budgeting for your expenses, you should talk to those who performed The Hajj the previous year. Use the list of expenditure categories provided above so that you can talk specific figures.
Below are some price indications (2002 prices).
1. Dates. The price of dates vary from SR 10 to SR 120 per kg. A good quality date called "Amber" can be purchased for SR 30 per kg.
2. Dam for tamattu / korban: The price of goat is in the range of SR 350 to SR 400.
3. Souvenirs / gifts. Prayer rugs, tasbih and prayer caps are the most commonly bought items. Prices of prayer rugs range from SR 5 to over SR 100 per piece. You can buy a reasonably good quality prayer rug for SR 15. Prices of prayer caps range from 3 pieces for SR 5 to SR 5 for one. Tasbih prices range from a dozen pieces for SR 5 to SR 15 for one. Of course, there are very, very expensive tasbih as well.
4. Excess luggage: SR 20 per kg. Saudi Airlines allows the pilgrim traveling economy class to carry up to 30kg of check-in luggage and another 5kg of hand carried luggage.
5. Laundry. There are many laundry service centers near The Holy Mosques. They take about 24 to 48 hours to return your clothes. SR 2 for a shirt and SR 3 for a pant.
6. Telephone calls: expenses depend on the frequency, length and destination of the calls.
Use the rates prevailing in your country as rough guide in budgeting for this expense.
7. Charity. The minimum amount given to a street beggar is SR 1. You'll find near both Mosques and other places many physically challenged persons begging. A significant number of the beggars are women carrying infants and young girls. One wonders whether this is a reflection of underlying social problems.

Haj Committee - Death and Hajj
It is a very emotional scene in many places when pilgrims bid farewell to their families and friends in their homes or at the airport. Many cry.
To a few pilgrims, it is really their final farewell. Some pass away even before they reach The Holy Land, some pass away in the middle of their Hajj rites, and others after completing their Hajj rites but before their return journey.
It is very important that the pilgrim wears his identification tag at all times he/she is out of his place of accommodation. It is easier to live with the news of the death of a loved one than to be told that the identification of several dead pilgrims could not be ascertained and your loved one could be one of them.
Though the Haj tour operator and other authorities will have your home address and contact details, it is important that those closest to you during the pilgrimage also have these details. It is always more comforting to your loved ones to hear about your condition from those who had been closest to you.
If someone who had been close to you during the pilgrimage passes away in The Holy Land, please make it a point to contact the deceased's family in person (if their place is not too far away from yours) and spend time sharing the good companionship you had with the deceased. What you say will be amongst the memories that they will carry of their loved one. It will be a great source of comfort to them and may The Almighty reward you for the good deed.
Though funeral arrangements are usually handled by the Haj tour operator and other Saudi authorities, there are also private companies that provide this service. One such company is "SAMIA - Private Undertaking Transportation Services, Tel: 5705000 (Mecca). The service costs approximately SR 1,000.

Haj Committee - Health Problems
1. You'll leave home ready to immerse yourself in worship. This optimism will be dampened by the health problems you'll have to cope in The Holy Land. Don't push yourself. Your body needs lots of rest to cope with these problems. Do what you can and move on. Your worship did not begin with The Hajj and is not going to end with it.
2.Most pilgrims will suffer from one or more of the following: sore throat, coughing, frequent sneezing, runny nose and fever. Bring enough supplies of over the counter medication. This will reduce the need to make frequent trips to the pharmacy and also your out of pocket expenses.
3. Take multivitamins daily as you may not be eating a balanced diet there.
4. If you have asthma, consult your doctor on the extra precautions you need to take as it is very dusty in many of the places you'll be visiting.
5. Avoid applying perfumes with strong smell when you go to The Mosque. Have a heart for those with medical conditions like asthma and migraine. Strong smells are associated with migraine and asthma attacks. When you consider the well-being of others in your actions, The Almighty will be pleased and insha Allah, reward you. [Perfumes are prohibited in the state of ihram.]
6. The Hajj pilgrimage involves a lot of walking. If you don't go for daily walks, begin it well before your journey to The Holy Land. This will reduce the likelihood of getting muscle pulls and cramps. The tawaf, sa'ee, and the frequent daily walks to The Mosque will help to improve your health. Do not stop this habit of walking when you return home. You must to be in the best of health to concentrate fully on your worship wherever you are.
7. You are never more than a foot from another pilgrim when you are in Mecca during the peak period of the pilgrimage. Cover your nose and mouth with a mask when you leave your hotel/apartment to reduce the likelihood of infection. You can get a good quality washable mask (Price SR 7 to SR 9 per piece) at the pharmacies there.
8. If you wear glasses, bring along an extra pair, preferably one with a plastic frame. The likelihood of your glasses falling down and being stepped on by sudden movements of the crowd are high. As an additional cover, bring along your glass prescriptions as well. There are optical shops near The Mosque.
9. Flatulence (passing of wind) is an important cause of the loss of wudu. In the crowd packed Holy Mosques, this can be a big problem. Avoid or reduce the intake of food that contribute to this problem. If this is a serious problem for you, consult your doctor. Both herbal and other medications [antacid antiflatulent] are now available to reduce the occurrence of flatulence.
10. The majority of pilgrims will be staying in rooms that will have 4 to 10 persons per room. If you snore loudly and continuously, you can make life miserable for you roommates. Don't expect them to show the same tolerance that your wife has shown all these years! Medication and treatment are now available for this condition. Consult your doctor.
2.Most pilgrims will suffer from one or more of the following: sore throat, coughing, frequent sneezing, runny nose and fever. Bring enough supplies of over the counter medication. This will reduce the need to make frequent trips to the pharmacy and also your out of pocket expenses.
3. Take multivitamins daily as you may not be eating a balanced diet there.
4. If you have asthma, consult your doctor on the extra precautions you need to take as it is very dusty in many of the places you'll be visiting.

Haj Committee - Women
1. Over the years, there has been a substantial increase in the number of women performing The Hajj. There is a need for a paradigm shift in policies and provision of facilities for women.
Women must be represented in all Hajj decision-making bodies (in Saudi Arabia and in other countries) so that that their interests and needs are well articulated.
2. The prayer space allocated to women in the Prophet's Mosque is grossly disproportionate. Women who wish to pray inside the mosque have to be there earlier than men.

3. In the airport, there is no gender segregation in the customs and the waiting areas. But in the immigration area, you'll be separated from your spouses before you are united again in the customs area. This causes a lot of inconvenience to families as they have to wait for the husband/wife to turn up for customs clearance.
4. Many aspects relating to woman pilgrims require in-depth presentation. I hope a knowledgeable and observant Hajjah will consider developing a site titled "Women and The Hajj". I'm prepared to offer the space in my site to host such a site.
5. 20.4% of the pickpockets arrested in Makkah in 2007 were women who target women pilgrims. Take care.

Haj Committee - Shopping
1. Most shops in the areas near the two Mosques do not accept credit cards. Do not arrive in The Sacred Land in the hope that you can survive with your credit cards. About the only places where credit cards can be used are five-star hotels and some jewellery shops. Visa and MasterCard stickers can be seen in these places. Diners and Amex are not popular here
2. To cash travellers cheques, you must produce your purchase receipt of these cheques and your pilgrims identification tag. Remember to bring along the purchase receipt.
3. Generally, expect customer 'unfriendly' service. One can cite several reasons (big crowd, language problem, etc) but at the end of the day it presents a bad image of the country. The Saudi authorities should look into both structural and attitudinal factors, and take corrective action.
4. Price haggling is the norm. Pilgrims from countries where this is NOT the norm are clearly at a disadvantage.
5. Goods with price stickers/tags are a rare sight. This makes shopping very difficult. The Saudi authorities should look into this problem. In the long run, price stickers will help to increase sales.
6. Food products: 'expiry dates' are printed mostly in Arabic numerals. Familiarize yourself with Arabic numerals so that you don't end up buying 'expired' products.
7. Coins are never used, although Saudi currency coins exist. If you pay SR 3 for SR 2.50 product, you'll be given one or two tiny packets of chewing gum as "change". Of course, it works one way only - the shops won't accept SR 2 and chewing gum from you for a SR 2.50 purchase! The Saudi authorities should act against this practice of not using the coins.
8. Pirated products, particularly pirated watches, are widely sold by street vendors and others. It is vital that Saudi authorities move quickly against the import and sale of such products to protect the shoppers and to maintain the image of The Holy Land as a place for honest commerce.
9. The Saudi authorities should encourage the setting up of hypermarkets (similar to Carrefour) in Mecca and Medina so that shoppers can buy a good part of their needs under one roof and without price haggling.
10. Beware of pickpockets. Despite the tough laws, the crowded environment of The Hajj provides easy opportunities for these criminals.
11. You have to know Arabic, Urdu, Hindi or Malay to do your shopping in The Sacred Land. Use of English is very rare.
12. Some shops have bilingual signboards (Arabic and English). In 8 out of 10 signboards, the English words are wrongly spelt. I hope the local authorities in The Sacred Land take appropriate measures.
13. If you wish to buy snacks, groceries, etc in a posh setting, there are several supermarkets near The Sacred Mosques.
