The Three Types of Hajj and the Best of Them

Question:
The questioner asks, Shaykh, about the types of Hajj. He says: It is my first time wanting to perform Hajj, so what is the best of the types of Hajj? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
The best of the types of Hajj are three: tamattu', qiran, and ifrad. The best of them is tamattu' with 'Umrah to Hajj: one performs 'Umrah first, then waits until the time of Hajj arrives, and then performs Hajj. This is tamattu'.
One exits the state of ihram between the Hajj and the 'Umrah. As for qiran, one enters the state of ihram for both 'Umrah and Hajj together. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . This is qiran. And the best for one who enters the state of ihram as a qiran and has ample time is:
The best for him is to convert his qiran to tamattu'. He performs the 'Umrah and exits the state of ihram from it, and puts on his clothes, then waits until the eighth day, which is the Day of Tarwiyah, arrives. He enters the state of ihram for Hajj and goes out to Mina, then to 'Arafah, and performs the rites of Hajj on the days of Hajj. These are the three types of Hajj. Yes.
