The Most Important Pracitce Of The 10th ZilHijja
Other than Ihram there are only two fundamentals and Fardh obligations
of Hajj. The First is Waqof-e-Arafat and the 2nd is Tawaf-e-Ziyarat of
10th Zilhijja. According to Sunnat this Tawaf is to be performed after
your being free from Rami, sacrifice and Halq ; but the Fardh stands discharged
even if Tawaf-e-Ziyarat is performed prior to all these practices.
Rule Of Action
The preferable time for Tawaf-e-Ziyarat is the 10th Zilhijja, but it is
permissible upto the 12th Zilhijja before sunset. In case of delay beyond
the 12th Zilhijja a Dam will stand obligatory and even then the Tawaf
obligation will remain undischarged. This Tawaf can neither be nullfied
in any case nor it can be discharged by any substitution. In deed, it
remains obligatory throughout your life and until it is rendered discharged
your enjoying a sexual intercourse or kissing and embracing with your
wife will remain unlawful and forbidden (Haram) (Ghunya).
Rule Of Action
On your being free from Tawaf-e-Ziyarat all the abstinances of your Ihram
are rendered lawful (Halal). Having a sexual intercourse with your wife
is also rendered lawful.
Rule Of Action
For a woman who is with menses or a blood discharge of a child birth,
Tawaf is not permissible. If the menses or blood discharge of child birth
commences on the 10th Zilhijja and she does not attain to cleanliness
till the 12th Zilhijja, she will have to postpone Tawaf-e-Ziyarat and
no Dam will be obligatory for her on this postponement. Tawaf-e-Ziyarat
is not possible until she attains to cleanliness and without Tawaf-e-Ziyarat
she cannot go back to her homeland. In case she returns home, even then
this obligation will stand undischarged throughout her life and at last
she will have to be present again in Mecca and perform Tawaf. It is therefore
necessary to wait till she attains to cleanliness from menses and birth-blood
discharge.
