Common mistakes in Hajj - In Tawaf

Common Mistakes You don’t want to Make 

In Tawaf:

• You do not have to say your intention out loud to begin Tawaf. Saying intentions out loud is something the Prophet (Sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam) never did except after Ihraam when he said, “Labbayk Allahuma Umrah wa Hajj.”
  
• 
  
• You do not have to touch the black stone for your Tawaf to be accepted. If it is crowded you may face your hand toward the stone and say Allahu Akbar.
  
• 
  
• Do not kiss the Yemeni corner. You may only touch it.
  
• 
  
• Do not worship the black stone. You are glorifying Allah by coming to this house and worshiping Him, following the Sunnah of Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam).
  
• 
  
• Do not follow those Dua books that make up dua for each time you go around the Ka’bah. Read Quran and make Dua from your heart and glorify Allah.
  
• 
  
• Make Dua by yourself, do not do it in a shouting group around the ka’bah.
  
• 
  
• Do not wipe the walls of the ka’bah during Tawaf. Rasul Allah did not touch anything other than the black stone and the Yemeni corner.
  
• 
  
• Do not hurt anyone to kiss the black stone.
  
• 
  
• Do not face your hand to the Yemeni corner and say Allahu Akbar. This is only for the black stone.
  
• 
  
• Do not push or hurt anyone during Tawaf
  
• 
  
• The Ka’bah should be to your left. Do not do Tawaf with your back to the ka’bah.
  
• 
  
• Do not stand at the black stone line for a long time. Move on.
  
• 
  
• Do not lengthen your 2 Rakas of Tawaf
  
• One should read suraatul Kafirun and al Ikhlaas (Say Allah is One), behind the Maqaam
• 
  
• There is nothing in the sunnah about: Dua Maqam Ibraheem. After you pray the 2 Rakas of Tawaf move on.
