When planning a Hajj, you need to consider many points. Firstly, decide what to bring with you, but at the same time, you need to minimize the number of things so as not to overload your luggage with unnecessary things.
Secondly, you need to determine which items are most important on the trip, such as documents and medicines. You should leave everything that will distract you from the main purpose of your trip since the hajj is to leave worldly entertainment. After all, you don’t want to take unnecessary things with you on the most important journey of your life.
It should be small but it is a sturdy ragbag that you can put on your waist. It is best to wear it under ihram for reasons of safety and protection against thieves. Keep the most important documents here, including:
1. Flight ticket.
2. Copy of passport and visa.
3. Certificate of Shahada (if you are converted to Islam in a non-Muslim country).
4. Hotel address. (in English and Arabic)
5. Cash.
6. Medication.
7. Glasses, contact lenses.
The Hajj journey is based on five days, each pilgrim has to travel between Mina, Muzdalifa and Arafat, Mina and Mecca. You need a medium-sized suitcase that will be easy to move to. An ideal option is a backpack in which your desire items are included. Before packing, think about what you will wear for 5 days of the hajj. Put the Ihram dress at the top, because you have to wear it throughout the journey. Here is some essential item that you can bring in your suitcase:
1. A couple of casual clothes (linen, trousers, abaya, hijab, socks, etc.).
2. Hand towel.
3. Pair of sandals or slippers.
4. Odorless lotion or Vaseline.
5. An umbrella that absorbs sunlight.
6. Flashlight.
7. Toilet paper.
8. Toothbrush, Miswak, and Toothpaste.
9. Snack food, like dried fruits, nuts, etc.
10. Water bottles.
11. A small copy of the Qur'an, books from the dua, etc.
12. Check with your tour operator for lunch.
13. Blankets essential medicines, painkillers, and ambulance kit.
14. Personal hygiene products.
15. Surgical mask.
16. Prayer rug.
17. Folding stool.
Hajj takes place in Dha-ul Hijjah that is the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar. Those who intend to perform the Hajj during these months should not engage in sexual intimacy, commit sins and engage in controversy during the Hajj. Whatever you do good, Allah knows about it. Take supplies with you, but the best supply is fear of God.
Another essential supply for the Hajj is not what you pack in your suitcase, but what you take with you in your heart is god-fearing, obedience and awareness.
