The Ruling on the Hajj of One Who Follows Another Scholar
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner (Muhammad A.) says: I performed the Hajj of Islam, but I did not know much about the rituals, and I was doing what my companions in Hajj were doing. Does that affect my Hajj, since the intention may not have been present?
Knowing that I have performed Hajj several times after learning the rituals, is the obligatory Hajj valid, even if it may have been incomplete, O Shaykh?
Answer:
Praise be to Allah. The principle is validity, and praise be to Allah. Even if you had some... as long as you did what the pilgrims do, and praise be to Allah. Yes, and leave aside the whispers of doubt. Yes.
Then, if the first Hajj was not completed, other Hajjs came after it, and praise be to Allah, each one is sufficient.
The point is: the first Hajj fulfilled the obligation, and the rest are voluntary. A believer should not indulge in whispers of doubt that harm him, anger Allah, and please Satan. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
