Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam, obligatory once in a lifetime for every able Muslim who can afford the journey (Qur'an 3:97), and its rites follow a fixed sequence across six days of the Islamic lunar month of Dhul Hijjah. The order pilgrims follow today mirrors the Prophet Muhammad's own Farewell Hajj, in which he instructed the assembled pilgrims, "Take your rites of Hajj from me" (Sahih Muslim), establishing Mina on the 8th, the standing at Arafah on the 9th, the night at Muzdalifah, stoning the Jamarat, sacrifice and shaving on the 10th, and the days of Tashreeq that follow. Because so many rites happen across different locations in a short window, pilgrims — especially first-timers — often lose track of exactly what comes next or which steps they have already completed. This interactive guide breaks the entire itinerary into clear daily checklists so nothing gets missed, while your progress is saved automatically as you move through the days of Hajj.
For millions of pilgrims each year, Hajj compresses a lifetime of anticipation into roughly six intense days of worship, movement, and remembrance. Unlike Umrah, which can be completed in an hour or two, Hajj unfolds across several distinct locations around Makkah — Mina, Arafah, Muzdalifah, and back to Mina again — each tied to a specific day and a specific set of rites that build on one another in a fixed, well-documented order.
The itinerary begins on the 8th of Dhul Hijjah, known as Yawm al-Tarwiyah, when pilgrims enter the state of Ihram and travel to Mina to spend the day and night in worship ahead of the pilgrimage's central rite. That central rite arrives on the 9th, Yawm Arafah: standing anywhere within the vast plain of Arafah from midday until sunset. Scholars across every school of thought agree this standing is the one truly indispensable pillar of Hajj — a Hajj without it, absent a valid excuse, is not considered complete.
As the sun sets on Arafah, pilgrims move to Muzdalifah for a night largely spent gathering pebbles and resting under the open sky, praying Maghrib and Isha together. Before or shortly after sunrise on the 10th, Eid al-Adha, they proceed to Mina to stone Jamarat al-Aqabah, arrange for the sacrifice, and shave or trim their hair — three acts that lift most of the restrictions of Ihram. Many pilgrims also perform Tawaf al-Ifadah and Sa'i that same day, though this can be delayed if crowds or logistics require it.
The days that follow, the 11th through 13th, are known as Ayyam al-Tashreeq, spent largely in Mina stoning all three Jamarat each afternoon in a fixed order — the small, then the middle, then the large pillar — seven pebbles at each. Pilgrims may choose an earlier departure after the second day's stoning or remain for a third round on the 13th, both options accepted across the major schools. The itinerary closes, for every pilgrim except women in a state of menstruation or postpartum bleeding, with Tawaf al-Wada: a final farewell circuit of the Kaaba performed as literally the last act before leaving Makkah, so that a pilgrim's final image of their pilgrimage is the House of Allah itself.
Keeping track of which rite belongs to which day, especially while managing crowds, heat, and long walks between sites, is one of the most common practical challenges pilgrims report. A simple day-by-day checklist — one that remembers what has already been completed even if you close your phone for hours at a time — removes a real source of stress from what should remain, first and foremost, an act of devotion.
Hajj rituals run from the 8th to the 13th of Dhul Hijjah. Day 8 is spent in Mina, Day 9 (Arafah) is the standing at Arafah, the night of 9-10 is spent in Muzdalifah, Day 10 (Eid al-Adha) includes stoning Jamarat al-Aqabah, sacrifice, shaving, and Tawaf al-Ifadah, and Days 11-13 (Ayyam al-Tashreeq) involve stoning all three Jamarat in Mina before a final Tawaf al-Wada.
Standing at Arafah on the 9th of Dhul Hijjah, any part of the time between midday and dawn the next day, is the single obligatory pillar (Rukn) of Hajj. Most scholars agree that missing it entirely without a valid excuse invalidates that year's Hajj, so a pilgrim in this situation should consult a knowledgeable scholar immediately.
Yes. Most scholars permit an early departure (Ta'ajjul) after completing the stoning on the 12th of Dhul Hijjah, provided the pilgrim leaves the boundaries of Mina before sunset that day. Otherwise, the pilgrim stays for a third stoning on the 13th.
Most scholars consider Tawaf al-Wada obligatory (Wajib) for pilgrims leaving Makkah after Hajj, performed as the very last act before departure with no Sa'i afterward. Women who are menstruating or bleeding after childbirth are exempted from this requirement by the majority view.
