The Categories of Hajj and Their Order of Superiority
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
You mentioned that Hajj has three categories, and you mentioned ifrad. Is there a disagreement among scholars regarding ifrad?
Some scholars say: Tamattu' is obligatory, and qiran is not permissible except with bringing the sacrificial animal, and ifrad is not permissible except with bringing the sacrificial animal; however, this opinion is weak.
And the correct view is: All three types of Hajj are permissible, but they differ in superiority. Tamattu' is the best, qiran is better for the one who brings the sacrificial animal, and ifrad is the last of them.
