(Qiran) means that the pilgrim enters the state of Ihram for Hajj
and ‘Umrah together (i.e. to enter in a state of Ihram for both Hajj
and ‘Umrah) from the Miqat, completes the rituals of ‘Umrah, then
remain in the state of Ihram in Makkah till the 8th. of Dhul-Hijja,
which is the start of the Hajj. He performs the Hajj rituals then is
released from Ihram.
The Logical Plan available on the right hand side of the screen
explains step by step the stages performed by the (Qarin) pilgrim.
(Qiran) is so called because the pilgrim has joined together between
the Hajj and ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj in one trip and with
one intention.
Allah said:
“Indeed,
the first House [of worship] established for mankind was that at
Makkah – blessed and a guidance for the worlds. In it are clear
signs [such as] the standing place of Abraham. And whoever enters it
shall be safe. And [due] to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to
the House – for whoever is able to find thereto a way. But whoever
disbelieves – then indeed, Allah is free from need of the worlds.”
