For the sake of that physically disabled, may Allah grant us yearning to make ḥajj ourselves!

اٰمِیْن بِجَاہِ النَّبِیِّ الْاَمِیْن صلَّی اللہ عَلَیْہِ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم

Three hadith discussing the virtue of ḥajj

1.   As narrated by the Companion Abū Hurayrah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ, the final Prophet of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم explained, “Whoever performs ḥajj of the Kaʿbah and does not engage in obscenity or sin during it, will return as his mother gave birth to him.”^[1]

2.   It is stated in Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī:

وَالحَجُّ المَبْرُورُ لَيْسَ لَهٗ جَزَاءٌ اِلَّا الْجَنَّةُ اَلْعُمْرَةُ اِلَى الْعُمْرَةِ كَفَّارَةٌ لِّمَا بَيْنَهُمَا

One ʿumrah to another is expiation for the sins between them, and reward for an accepted ḥajj is nothing but Paradise.^[2]

3.   It is stated in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, اِنَّ الْحَجَّ يَهْدِمُ مَا كَانَ قَبْلَهٗ - “Certainly, ḥajj causes previous sins to be forgiven.”^[3]

Fulfilling the rights of people is necessary even after ḥajj

O those who love Allah’s Messenger! We have learnt that faith and good deeds lead to sins being forgiven.

Scholars of Islam add, “Performing ʿumrah leads to minor sins being forgiven, and there is full hope an accepted ḥajj leads to forgiveness for major sins.”
