This was a note personally scribed by our beloved @MuftiEbrahim RA. He was one of the most humble, modest & sincere teachers. His love & care would melt the hardest of hearts. The value & blessing of such a teacher is, unfortunately, appreciated only after they've gone.
This concludes excerpts from the 24 part audio series on the Tafseer of Surah Hajj by Mufti Ebrahim Desai Rahimahullah. Audio series of Mufti Sahebs Majalis, Heelatun Naajizah, Islamic finance, Hadith lessons & others can all be accessed on the https://t.co/eUby4c0M17 website
Dear pilgrim,

Dear pilgrim,
Today is 12th Dhul Hijjah. As yesterday, time for rami starts from zawal - after which, you may now return to Makkah as a Haji! You may stay an additional day in Mina &, before leaving, pelt all 3 Jamarat. If not done yet, perform Hajj Tawaf before today's sunset.
Dear pilgrim,
Today is 11th Dhul Hijjah, among 'the greatest days to Allah.' You will proceed to pelt (rami), AFTER zawal, all 3 Jamarat ×7, while declaring takbir with each pebble & making dua after 1st & 2nd Jamarat. Perform rami before [ideally] sunset or [latest] subh sadiq.
Dear pilgrim,
Today is 10th Dhul Hijjah. On leaving Muzdalifa, you'll proceed to Mina just before sunrise. Here, you'll pelt big jamarat only ×7 → slaughter an animal → shave/cut hair, & head to Makkah for tawaf ziyarah & sa'i. Don't delay in returning to spend night at Mina.
Dear pilgrims,
Today is 8th Dhul Hijjah. You will have left Makkah & reached Mina, whilst talbiyah echoes in ears, & tongues moisten with it. Remain here the day & night - performing Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha & Fajr. Engage in Qur'an, durud, Istighfar, zikr, learning & teaching.
