Default Re: Why is it akbari? - 12-29-2006



Some refer to it as Akbari Hajj when Yaum al 'Arafah is on Jum'uah, but there is no basis for that, so I think that is what she is talking about.

"The correct meaning of the term, as explained by a large number of the commentators of the Glorious Qur'aan is that, the UMRAH was generally called "Al Hajjul-Asghar" (the minor Hajj). In order to distinguish Umrah from Hajj, the latter (i.e. HAJJ) was named "Al Hajjul Akbar" (the greater Hajj). Therefore, every Hajj is a "Al Hajjul-Akbar" whether it is performed on a Friday or on other day. "
