Hajj is the 5th pillar of Islam. For those Muslims who are physically able and financially capable, doing Hajj at least once in their lives is obligatory. There are three types of Hajj. These types include the following:
1, Hajj Tamattu
2. Hajj Qiran
3. Hajj Ifrad
Generally, the three types of Hajj differ in how they combine or separate the rituals of Umrah and Hajj and their requirements for sacrifice. Hajj Tamattu is the most common and recommended type of Hajj for international pilgrims, which separates Umrah and Hajj. Hajj Qiran combines both Hajj and Umrah in one, continuous, and demanding Ihram, while Hajj Ifrad is Hajj only, intended for local residents.
The short overview of the key differences in the three types of Hajj is below:
Hajj Tamattu
During Hajj Tamattu, pilgrims perform Umrah during the months of Hajj (e.g., Dhul-Hijjah) and exit Ihram. Then, they enter a new state of Ihram to do Hajj on 8 Dhul-Hijjah. A sacrifice (Hady) is required.
Hajj Qiran
During Hajj Qiran, pilgrims wear Ihram for both Umrah and Hajj simultaneously or add Hajj to Umrah before the Tawaf. There is no exit from Ihram between Hajj and Umrah. It also requires sacrifice (Hady).
Hajj Ifrad
During Hajj Ifrad, pilgrims enter Ihram for Hajj only. No Umrah is performed. No sacrifice (Hady) is required
