The goals and effects of Hajj
The Madinan Sanctuary / The Prophet’s Mosque in Medina
The goals and effects of Hajj are the spiritual and material results of the Hajj in the life of a Muslim, which are mentioned in religious texts. According to the Qur'an (verses 27 and 28 of Surah Hajj), the duty of Hajj has benefits for humans:
Ḥaram Madanī is an area of the city of Medina in the Hijaz that, in Islam, holds sanctity and has special etiquettes and rulings.
وَأَذِّن فِی ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلۡحَجِّ یَأۡتُوکَ رِجَالٗا وَعَلَیٰ کُلِّ ضَامِرٖ یَأۡتِینَ مِن کُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِیقٖ لِّیَشۡهَدُواْ مَنَافِعَ لَهُمۡ ... "and proclaim among men the Pilgrimage, and they shall come unto thee on foot and upon every lean beast, they shall come from every deep ravine(27) that they may witness things profitable to them and mention God's Name on days well¡known over such beasts of the flocks as He has provided them So eat thereof, and feed the wretched poor(28)"
This area extends from the east and west between the eastern lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Sharqiyya) and the western lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Gharbiyya), and from the north and south, from Mount Thawr to Mount ʿAyr.
 
The Madinan Sanctuary has rulings and etiquettes, such as the recommended act of performing ghusl and purification when entering it, and these are similar to the rulings and etiquettes of the Meccan Sanctuary.
In the hadiths of the Imams (a.s.), which have survived in Shiite texts, these "benefits" have been interpreted and considered to include worldly blessings and otherworldly benefits. In this article, some of the most important goals and results of Hajj are introduced based on Shia hadith and commentary texts. Repentance and forgiveness, self-improvement and piety, strengthening of faith, Tawalli and  tabarri  material benefits are among these goals and benefits.
Some have considered the reason for Medina being made a sanctuary to be the granting of protection to Medina and its inhabitants, while others have attributed it to the presence of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
==Repentance and forgiveness==
==Boundaries==
Based on a tradition, Imam Sadiq (a.s.) considered the main reason for the construction of the [[Ka'ba]] to be the repentance of the children of Adam and their purity from sin.<ref>Kulaynī, ''al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 188; Ḥurr al-ʿĀmilī, ''Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa'', vol. 13, p. 295.</ref> Imam Reza (a.s.) also said that the reason for the legalization of Hajj was Moving to God and repent of past sins and starting a new life.<ref>Ṣadūq, ''ʿIlal al-sharāʾiʿ'', vol. 1, p. 273; Ḥurr al-ʿĀmilī, ''Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa'', vol. 11, p. 13.</ref>Based on a narration, one of the instances of "benefits" in the verse:
The Madinan Sanctuary is an area within Medina in the Hijaz.
(وَ أَذِّن فی النَّاسِ بِالحْجّ… لِّّیشْهَدُواْ مَنَافِعَ لَهُمْ)<ref>Quran: 22:28</ref>{{enote|"And proclaim to the people the Hajj... that they may witness benefits for themselves."}} This is about seeking divine forgiveness and mercy.<ref>Kulaynī, ''al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 264.</ref>
This sanctuary lies, from the east and west, between the eastern lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Sharqiyya) and the western lava field (al-Ḥarra al-Gharbiyya).(1) al-Kulaynī ,"al-Kāfī,",vol. 4,p. 564-565. ,,, ibn Ḥanbal ," Musnad al-Imām Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal ",vol. 3,p. 23. ,,, al-Ḥajjāj al-Nīshābūrī Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim",vol. 4,p. 113.
 
And according to one narration, it extends from the north and south, from Mount Thawr to Mount ‘Ayr.(2) al-Ḥajjāj al-Nīshābūrī Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim",vol. 4,p. 115. ,,, al-Bukhārī , "Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī ",vol. 8,p. 10.  
==Taqwa==
According to a narration from Imam Reza (AS), one of the aims and effects of [[Hajj]] is self-improvement and eliminating unworthy traits.<ref>Ṣadūq, ''ʿIlal al-sharāʾiʿ'', vol. 2, p. 402; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 6, p. 96.</ref> Similarly, an account from Imam Ali (AS) mentions the purpose of Hajj as expelling vanity from hearts and replacing it with humility.<ref>Kulaynī, ''al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 201; ''Nahj al-balāgha'', kh, 192.</ref> The wisdom behind each [[ritual of Hajj]], as per narrations, is self-improvement.{{enote|According to a narration from Imam Sadiq (AS), the wisdom behind sacrificing the animal during Hajj is symbolic. Sacrificing represents the slaughter of carnal desires and greed, while the act of stoning the pillars symbolizes distancing oneself from lustful inclinations and wrongful deeds. Shaving or trimming the hair symbolizes removing both outward and inward flaws within a person.}}<ref>Al-mansūb ilā l-Imām al-Sādiq, ''Miṣbāḥ al-sharī'a'', p. 49;Nūrī, ''Mustadrak al-wasāʾil'', vol. 10, p. 173.</ref>
The Quran considers the objective behind legislating Hajj as the attainment of human consciousness towards God (taqwa).{{enote|﴿الْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌ مَعْلُوماتٌ… َ تَزَوَّدُوا فَإِنَّ خَیرَ الزَّادِ التَّقْوی وَ اتَّقُونِ یا أُولِی الْأَلْباب﴾
"Hajj is [to be performed in] known months... Seek provisions for yourselves, but the best provision is righteousness." Quran: 2: 197}} This goal is also referenced in two other verses.<ref>Quran: 2: 189,196; 5:96.</ref> Moreover, in various hadiths, the emphasis is placed on maintaining taqwa from the moment of assuming the state of [[Ihram]] until the completion of the [[Rites of Hajj al-Tamattu'|rituals]].<ref>Kulaynī, ''al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 338; Ṭūsī,''Tahdhīb al-aḥkām'', vol. 5, p. 296.</ref>
 
==Strengthening faith==
In narrations, the phrase "set up for mankind" in the verse about Kaaba being a place of standing for people is understood to mean the establishment of religion and sustenance for people. Hence, one of the aims of Hajj is considered the establishment of religion. Another narration links the establishment of religion to the existence of the Kaaba. Hajj is also considered Islam's banner and a means of elevating faith and reforming people's beliefs.
 
Spiritual connection with divine leadership (Tawalli):
The Quran mentions Ibrahim's duty to call people to Hajj so that they come to him; therefore, one of the aims of Hajj is strengthening friendship and a connection with divine leaders. Some narrations interpret "my descendants" in Ibrahim's plea to God as referring to the Ahl al-Bayt (AS). Another narration sees completing Hajj and Umrah as an opportunity to meet Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the Imams (AS).


In the narrations, other various expressions have also been mentioned for determining its northern and southern boundaries.(3) al-Kulaynī ,"al-Kāfī,",vol. 4,p. 564. ,,, al-Majlisī ,"Marāʾat al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl ", vol. 18, p. 279. ,,, Najafī," Jawāhir al-Kalām fī Sharḥ Sharāʾiʿ al-Islām " ,vol. 20, p. 75. ,,, ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
==Why it became a Haram==
Various reasons have been mentioned for why the city of Medina was made a sanctuary (ḥaram).
Some of them are as follows:
• Providing protection to Medina and its inhabitants;(4) al-Ḥajjāj al-Nīshābūrī Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim",vol. 4,p. .117-118  ,,, al-Bayhaqī ," al-Sunan al-Kubrā " ,vol. 5, p. 198. ,,, al-Ṭabarānī ,  " al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr " ,vol. 6, p. 92. ,,, ibn Ḥanbal ," Musnad al-Imām Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal ",vol. 4, p. 55-56. ,,, al-Haythamī , “Majmaʿ al-Zawāʾid wa Manbaʿ al-Fawāʾid " ,vol. 3, p. 306. ,,, al-Ṭūsī , "Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām fī Sharḥ al-Muqnaʿah li al-Shaykh al-Mufīd ",vol. 10, p. 216.
• Showing reverence to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him);
• The witnessing of divine lights by the Prophet (peace be upon him) within this area;
• The descent of the angels who guarded the Prophet (peace be upon him) in this area;
• The sanctity of the place where the Prophet (peace be upon him) is buried. [5] al-Samhūdī , "Wafāʾ al-Wafāʾ bi-Akhbār Dār al-Muṣṭafā ",vol. 1, p. 117-118.
==Etiquettes and Rules==
Main Article: Etiquettes of the Two Sanctuaries
According to Shia hadith sources, the Medina sanctuary has etiquettes and rulings similar to the Mecca sanctuary; such as the virtue of performing ghusl (ritual purification) and maintaining cleanliness upon entering Medina and when visiting the Prophet’s sanctuary (peace be upon him).
Some Sunni jurists have also issued rulings recommending ghusl upon entering the Medina sanctuary.(6) al-Ḥaskafī , "al-Durr al-Mukhtār " ,vol. 1, p. 184. ,,, al-Majmūʿ Sharḥ al-Muḥadhdhab ",vol. 8, p. 273. ,,, Fatḥ al-Wahhāb, vol. 1, p. 257.
In Shia narrations, regarding hunting and cutting trees, there are narrations permitting(7) al-Ḥumayrī ," Qurb al-Isnād ", p. 301.
And narrations indicating non-permissibility.(8) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
They indicate this. In narrations from the Sunni tradition, cutting the trees of the Haram Madani (the Sanctuary of Medina) has been deemed forbidden.(9) ibn Bābawayh ," Maʿānī al-Akhbār ",p. 337.
