ESSENTIAL ITEMS TO TAKE WITH U…<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the five days of Hajj, and travelling between Mina, Muzdalifa, `Arafat, back to Mina and Makkah, you will require a small to medium lightweight bag that is easy to carry. A backpack is ideal. Anything larger is going to be awkward for you to carry around.<\/p>\n

However, before packing, let’s look at what you will be wearing for the five days of Hajj.<\/p>\n

Ihram is easy for a woman. You will need to set aside one full set of clothing that will be your ihram. Keep this on the side.<\/p>\n

INTO YOUR BAG WILL GO:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A second full set of clothing (underwear, pants, `abaya (loose fitting dress), hijab, socks, and so on). The emphasis on Hajj is to forget about your physical appearance, so extra clothing is unnecessary.
An under cap or short burka\u2026 for once u in the tents in mina you can wear and be comfortable as it\u2019s quite hot
Rehydrate sachets\u2026<\/p>\n

A small hand towel;<\/p>\n

an extra pair of slippers\/sandals for toilet<\/p>\n

Unscented lotion or Vaseline;<\/p>\n

Unscented sunscreen;<\/p>\n

A small umbrella: a light-collared one will reflect rather than absorb light;<\/p>\n

Small flashlight;<\/p>\n

Toilet paper;<\/p>\n

Tooth-brush, miswak and
Snacks, such as energy bars, dried fruit and nuts; biltong china fruit<\/p>\n

Refillable water bottles;<\/p>\n

A spray bottle is indispensable for making wudu\u2019 when getting to the taps is difficult in the crowd;
Plastic gloves for when u use the toilets in MINA
Power banks phone chargers
Empty packet
small packets or money bags for pebbles..<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

An old sheet; which many sisters have found useful as a cover as well as for dividing a tent and creating a barrier from men should the need arise;<\/p>\n

Essential medication and a small first-aid kit containing Band-Aids, painkillers, and so on;<\/p>\n

May Allah SWT accept your Hajj, give the best of rewards and make it easy for you. Ameen!<\/p>\n
