till the completion of Hajj) will go straight to Mina. Hajj-Tamattu pilgrim (one who wears Ahram,
performs Umrah then removes Ahram to wear again for Hajj) & Hajj-Ifraad pilgrim (one who wears
Hajj Ahram and directly proceeds to Mina on 8th) will wear their Ahram now and proceed to Mina. back

this night of 10th Dhul Hajj. back

Collect Your pebbles (Stones) : If you are planning to stay for only two nights (11th & 12th) in Mina
then collect only 7+(7*3*2)=49 pebbles. You might want to collect a few extra pebbles to make sure
you have enough.back

Saee. back

12th Dhul Hajj. back
10th Zul-haj’s Night in Mina : It is important to stay for a major part of every night (11th,12th &/or
