All journeys cause difficulties and require efforts. ImamGhazzali (r.a.) writes that whatever a person spendsduring Hajj he should spend it happily. One must bear allthe physical and material losses for it, as it is the sign ofacceptance of Hajj. Difficulties in Hajj are same as that inJihad. Hence there is a great reward for all the effort andthey won't go waste.According to a tradition, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) saidto Hazrat Aisha (r.a.), O Aisha, the reward of the Hajj isaccording to the effort undertaken by you.The reward of the Hajj is given according to the painstaken to complete this obligation. Therefore people bearall difficulties of Hajj quietly and do not even speak aword of distress. Neither do they relate their problems toanyone. Also people do not relate their problems toothers lest others get discouraged.When I was studying for Hajj before going for it, allscholars stressed only one point as to how to completethe Hajj. No one spoke as to how to face the difficultiesduring the 40 days' stay there. I felt during my 40 days'stay over there that many difficulties are caused due toour unawareness. It causes a great loss of our time, whichwould have been spent in worship. Hence I took up the job of writing this book. I want to give knowledge,guidance and suggestions to prospective pilgrims aboutthe problems and their solutions during Hajj.If pilgrims follow these advices, I hope they would beable to devote much of their time and energy in Allah'sworship.If you benefit from this book remember this sinnerQamruddin Khan also in your prayers. This book is writtenonly to avoid/solve problems faced during Hajj. Pleaseattend the Majaalis (Lectures/gatherings) organized bydifferent organizations for complete knowledge Hajjrites. By which one will be able to fulfill the right of thegreat worship like Hajj in a better way. May AlmightyAllah grant to you the favor of performing a good andacceptable Hajj.

Identity Cards And Their Importance

You get different identity cards and bracelets atdifferent stages of the journey. They are very importantand the careless pilgrims face a lot of trouble on losingthem. You should know their importance very well. Youshould keep them safely and use carefully.

An 'intimation letter' would be delivered to your homeafter you have filled you Hajj form. You will get your'cover number' along with lots of other information.

Thisnumber is very important for you. It is used for youridentification before and during the journey. None of yourformalities will be complete without this number. Hence,one should keep this letter safely and always rememberthe cover number. You will get your passport, airlineticket, identity card, bracelet etc. from Hajj Committeeonly on presenting this letter. Your draft would bereceived by Hajj Committee only on this number.

Importance of Passport

If you do not have a passport, there is no need toworry and even if you have one, it is not required. HajjCommittee issues a special passport for Hajj, which canbe used only once and only for Hajj. It has a white cover.You should not forget to carry it around with you duringthe journey. Your Muallim will take it from you onreaching Mecca and give it back to you at airport whilereturning.

Airline Ticket

You will get your airline ticket (boarding pass) alongwith passport from Hajj Committee. You will be allowed toboard the plane only on presenting this. Hence youshould keep it safe with utmost care till the time ofreturn. You should not hand it over to Muallim along withpassport.

Do not removeit even while bathing or going to toilet.

Foreign Exchange

The sixth thing that you get from airport before yourdeparture for Hajj is Saudi Arabia currency (Rial) or draft.It is your necessity as well as enemy of your life.
