The Hajj days at a glance
Hajj itself takes place from the 8th to the 13th of Dhul Hijjah. The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah's guide sets out the days like this:
- 8th (Tarwiyah): go to Mina and spend the day and night there.
- 9th (Arafah): stand at Arafah from after midday until sunset, then move to Muzdalifah for the night.
- 10th (Day of Sacrifice): stone Jamrat al-Aqabah, offer the sacrifice (hady) if it's due, shave or trim the hair, and perform Tawaf al-Ifadah (with sa'i if it's due).
- 11th–13th (Days of Tashreeq): stay in Mina and stone all three Jamarat each day, leaving on the 12th or the 13th.
- Before leaving Makkah: the farewell tawaf.
The pillars of Hajj, without which it isn't valid, are ihram, standing at Arafah, Tawaf al-Ifadah and sa'i. This World covers the 8th and 9th.
