Types of hajj

These three types of Hajj offer flexibility to pilgrims based on their circumstances and preferences. Each type has its own specific rituals and requirements, but all aim to fulfill the sacred pilgrimage to the holy sites in Mecca.
  • 1. Hajj al-Tamattu
  • 2. Hajj al-Qiran
  • 3. Hajj al-Ifrad

What is Hajj al-Tamattu?

This type of Hajj involves performing Umrah during the months of Hajj (Shawwal, Dhu al-Qa'dah, and the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah), followed by performing Hajj. Pilgrims performing Hajj al-Tamattu' enter into the state of Ihram for Umrah, complete the rituals, exit Ihram, and then enter into Ihram again for Hajj.

What is Hajj al-Qiran?

In this type of Hajj, pilgrims combine the rituals of Umrah and Hajj without exiting Ihram between them. They enter Ihram with the intention of performing both Umrah and Hajj together.

What is Hajj al-Ifrad?

This type of Hajj involves performing only the rituals of Hajj without performing Umrah. Pilgrims undertaking Hajj al-Ifrad enter into the state of Ihram with the intention of performing Hajj alone.
