What is Hajj?

Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is both a financial and physical worship. Hajj is obligatory once in a lifetime for the person who has the conditions. Even if his financial situation is suitable, if his health is not suitable until the end of his life, he sends a proxy. Hajj is to intend to visit the places to be honoured in lugat. Islamic jurisprudence;

It is to visit the special place (the Ka’bah and the holy places around it) at a special time (in the months of Hajj; Shawwal, Dhu’l-Qa’dah, Dhu’l-Hijjah), with a special act (Hajj menasiki; the obligations, wajibs and sunnahs of Hajj). Our Prophet (S.A.V) said that Islam is founded on five basic principles. These are the testimony that there is no god but Allah (swt) and that Muhammad (pbuh) is the Prophet of Allah (pbuh), prayer, giving zakat, fasting in Ramadan and pilgrimage to the Ka’bah.
