Visiting the Blessed Rawda ﷺ First in Hajj Badal
Question
I am setting out for Hajj badal on the ship of 28 Shawwal al-Mukarram, which will reach Jeddah by 5 Dhu’l-Qa‘da. Because of the winter season, my intention was, instead of going first to Madinah, to enter ihram for ‘Umra and go to Makka. But it became known that the one performing Hajj as a proxy can only perform ifrad, and there is no scope for tamattu‘.
Answer
May your blessed journey be blessed! [ar]زہے سعادت بندہ کہ کرد نزول ٭ گہے بہ بیت خدا و گہے بہ بیت رسول ﷺ[/ar] “What good fortune for the servant who gets to alight now at the House of God, now at the House of the Messenger ﷺ!” May Allah Most High enable you to complete all the rites with great ease and well-being, keep you safe from every kind of violation (jinaya)
