Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, father, Shaykh Salih, those who want to take Hajj out of its methodology and out of the methodology of the call to tawhid (the oneness of Allah)—Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk—what is the ruling on raising political slogans and other such things? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
This is among the matters of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. The people of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance used to exploit the season of Hajj to display their slogans, praise their tribes, and boast. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, prohibited that and freed the Muslims to thank Him, remember Him, obey Him, and perform the rites He prescribed for them. So the situation turned from this pre-Islamic age of ignorance to Islam, which is the religion of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, and which includes immediate and ultimate good,[Al-An'am 6:45]. Yes.
