Hajj, - Hukm al-Hajj wa'l-'Umrah (rulings on Hajjand 'Umrah), Dought & clear, - * Repeating Hajj

Is it good to repeat Hajj every year for the one who wants to do that
and for whom it is not difficult, or is it better to do it every three
years or every two years?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Allaah has enjoined Hajj upon every adult accountable Muslim who is
able to do it once in a lifetime. Anything more than that is voluntary
and is an act of worship by means of which he may draw closer to
Allaah. There is no report that specifies a particular number for
voluntary Hajj, rather the number of times it is repeated depends on
the person's financial situation, his health and the circumstances of
other around him such as his relatives and the poor, and other
interests of the ummah, how much of his time and money he devotes to
supporting the ummah, on his position within the ummah and whether it
is of more benefit for the ummah for him to stay or to travel for Hajj
etc.. So each person should look at his own circumstances and what is
better for him and the ummah, and give precedence to that.
And Allaah is the Source of strength.

Hajj, - Hukm al-Hajj wa'l-'Umrah (rulings on Hajjand 'Umrah), Dought & clear, - * Hajj is not obligatory for a person who does 'Umrah during the months of Hajj

Before the begining of the month of Haj, I did my umrah before the
month of Haj, some one told me that Haj is wajeeb on me now , although
I have already did haj 2 years back, please clarify the same?.
Praise be to Allaah.
What this person told you is not correct, because Hajj is only
obligatory once in a lifetime, because of the hadeeth of Ibn 'Abbaas,
which says that al-Aqra' ibn Haabis asked the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him): "O Messenger of Allaah, is Hajj (to
be done) every year or only once?" He said: "One once, and whoever
does more than that, it is a voluntary (act of worship)." Narrated by
Abu Dawood, 1721; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani.
Since you did Hajj before that, then you do not have to do Hajj again.
There are three months of Hajj: Shawwaal, Dhu'l-Qi'dah and
Dhu'l-Hijjah. Perhaps this person understood from the fact that they
are called the months of Hajj that whoever does 'Umrah during these
months is obliged to do Hajj. But this is incorrect, rather the reason
why they are called the months of Hajj is that Hajj must happen during
these months, not before or after them.
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about a
man who did Hajj tamattu', then after doing 'Umrah he went back to his
city and did not do Hajj - does he have to do anything (offer any
expiation or ransom)?
He replied: You do not have to do anything, because if a person is
doing Hajj tamattu' and enters ihraam for 'umrah, then decides not to
do Hajj before he enters ihraam for Hajj, then he does not have to
offer any expiation or ransom, unless he vowed to do Hajj this year.
If he made such a vow then he is obliged to fulfil his vow.
Fataawa Ibn 'Uthaymeen, 2/679.

Hajj, - Hukm al-Hajj wa'l-'Umrah (rulings on Hajjand 'Umrah), Dought & clear, - * Should he do more Hajj or is once enough?

Is it good to do more than one hajj or is it better to do only one hajj?.
Praise be to Allaah.
With regard to what is obligatory, Hajj is only required once in a
lifetime. It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of
Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) addressed us and
said: "O people, Allaah has enjoined Hajj on you, so perform Hajj." A
man said: "Is it every year, O Messenger of Allaah?" He remained
silent until (the man) said it three times. Then the Messenger of
Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "If I said
yes it would be obligatory and you would not be able to do it." Then
he said: "Be content what I leave with you, for those who came before
you were destroyed because they asked too many questions and argued
with their Prophets. If I tell you to do something then do as much of
it as you can, and if I tell you not to do something then abstain from
it." Narrated by Muslim, 1337.
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbaas that al-Aqra' ibn Haabis asked the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): "O Messenger of
Allaah, is Hajj every year or just once?" He said: "It is only once,
and whoever does more than that, it is a voluntary (act of worship)."
Narrated by Abu Dawood, 1721; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani.
With regard to what is preferable, the more a Muslim does of Hajj, the
better, even if he can do Hajj every year. There are reports which
encourage doing Hajj a great deal, such as the following:
1 - It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was asked: which deed is
best? He said: "Believing in Allaah and His Messenger." He was asked:
Then what? He said: "Jihad for the sake of Allaah." He was asked: Then
what? He said: "An accepted Hajj." Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 26;
Muslim, 83.
2 - It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him)
said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah
be upon him) say: "Whoever does Hajj for the sake of Allaah, and does
not utter any obscenity or commit any immoral action, will go back
(sinless) as on the day his mother bore him." (al-Bukhaari, 1449;
Muslim, 1350).
3 - It was narrated that 'Abd-Allaah ibn Mas'ood said: The Messenger
of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Make the
Hajj and 'Umrah follow each other closely, for they remove poverty and
sins as the bellows removes the dross of iron, gold and silver, and an
accepted Hajj brings no less a reward than Paradise."
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 810; al-Nasaa'i, 2631. Classed as saheeh by
Shaykh al-Albaani inal-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 1200.
And Allaah knows best.

Menstruation and Post-Natal bleeding, - Dought& clear, - * There is nothing wrong with a menstruating woman entering al-Madeenah al-Munawwarah

Is it permissible for a woman to enter the sanctuary of Madeenah when she is menstruating? What should she do if she is menstruating and she enters the city of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Menstruating women are not forbidden to enter Makkah or Madeenah. There is nothing in the texts to suggest that they are not allowed to enter these cities. Rather the texts indicate the opposite. The women who come for Hajj and ‘Umrah can be menstruating and the only thing that they are not allowed to do is to circumambulate the Ka’bah. ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) was with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) during the Farewell Pilgrimage and she got her menses before she entered Makkah, but he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not tell her not to enter the city until she became pure (her period ended)! Rather he told her to do all the rituals of Hajj except for Tawaaf around the Ka’bah, which she was to delay until she became pure. He (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Do everything that the pilgrims do, but do not circumambulate the House until you become pure.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 305; Muslim, 1211.
Don’t the women who live in Madeenah also menstruate? Do they go out of the city at that time? The point is that there is nothing wrong with a menstruating women entering Makkah or Madeenah and staying there. It is very clear and there is no need to look for evidence.
With regard to a menstruating woman entering the mosque (whether it is al-Masjid al-Haraam in Makkah, or the Mosque of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in Madeenah, or any other mosque, we have explained in the answer to question no. 33649that it is not permissible for a menstruating woman to enter the mosque.
And Allaah knows best.
