Adab al-Haramayn

Revision as of 15:28, 12 February 2020 by Engineer (talk | contribs)

Ādāb al-Ḥaramayn (آداب الحرمين, rites of the two shrines) is the rights and wrongs of performing hajj and visiting Mecca and Medina Adāb (rites) is the plural of adab means the rites and manners[1] and technically is doing the mustahab deeds and refraining from the makruh ones. Al-Shafi'i and some others have defined it as doing good deeds whether mustahab or obligatory.[2] The word “haramayn” is the dual form of “haram” meaning the area around holy places.[3] which is used specifically for al-Haram al-Madani and al-Haram al-Makki.[4] and when the word “haram” used alone it means al-Haram al-Makki.[5] Medina, like Mecca, has a haram containing al-Masjid al-Nabawi and its surroundings, and its rulings differ from al-Haram al-Makki.[6] Adab al-Haramayn are the deeds and manners the visitor considers regarding the holiness of the two places.[7] and in sources of hadith and fiqh they are called mustahab deeds.[8] Each of the rites of hajj has its own manners which are mentioned in their respective entries; in this article we take a general look at the manners of hajj and haramayn. The manners are two types, common, and specific.
