Hajj Guide 

Hajj is one of the greatest forms of worship, a pillar from the pillars of Islam, and a unique opportunity to seek Allah’s forgiveness and to make a new start in our lives. Such is the status of Hajj, that the Prophet (s) said, “The reward for an accepted Hajj in nothing less than Paradise.” It is therefore imperative that anyone contemplating performing this “journey of a lifetime” makes the necessary effort to learn how to perform hajj according to the Sunnah of the Prophet (s) such that it is accepted by Allah.

At Friends Travel, we make every effort to ensure that we have an effective programme of lectures so that you are able to attain maximum benefit from this blessed journey. Before we leave the UK we invite all of our pilgrims to attend a “Pre-Hajj Seminar” in order to mentally prepare everyone for Hajj, provide important practical guidance and also religious instruction. This is also a golden opportunity to ask any questions that you may have.
