Every Muslim wants to go for Hajj, yet it is an act that some Muslims do not understand, and many may never get to fulfill. For the lucky few who would make that sacred journey, Abdus-Salam Aladodo’s Simplified A – Z Guide on Hajj and ‘Umrah would be a valuable companion to observing the Hajj successfully.
The guide highlights everything a pilgrim needs to know. It covers every step from leaving your home to arriving in Madeenah, doing the Hajj rites, and returning home as a new person, enriched with the lessons and blessings of Hajj. The chapters answer questions on what pilgrims should do, what to say, where to go, and how to perform various Hajj rites. The language is measured–simple enough for everyone to understand, and delivered in a manner that does not dilute the message. The inclusion of pictures of landmark sites in the Holy Land adds to the book’s appeal. It’s well-balanced, adequate to educate readers without overwhelming them.
Abdus-Salam’s experience in da’wah shines through the book, which promises to be an illuminating read for everyone. He didn’t just only the fundamentals of Hajj from authentic Islamic traditions, he also used his native knowledge to make the book an engaging and informative read.
