Going to mina
You
are going to mina for staying five days at mina, arafat &
Muzdalifah. Carry only the essential things. A foam bed & one
pillow is given to every hajjis at the tent. Take some dry food &
necessary medicine. Take one extra piece of ihram cloth with you. You
will be there wearing ihram before hair cutting on the 10th Dh-Hijja
. After that you will be in normal dress for next two days, 11th
Dh-Hijja & 12th Dh-Hijja till after noon, but it is sunnah to
stay at mina till 13th Dh-Hijja after noon .
Stay at mina
Tamuttu
hajjis who are staying at Makkah go to mina by wearing ihram at their
home/hotel on the 8th Dh-Hijja . Normally hajj package managers carry
hajjis to mina by bus on on 7th Dh-Hijja from afternoon to avoid
crowd. It is necessary ( sunnah ) to stay at mina on 8th Dh-Hijja
day after night. hajjis stay in tent at mina the tents are air
conditioned but lot of hajjis are accommodated in every tent so there
is a crowded situation. Share your experience of staying at tent at
mina.
Food-stuff at mina
All
kind of foods are not available at mina as like as Makkah. Over all
hygiene & sanitation of mina is not so good. So there is a chance
to be ill by food borne diseases. Be careful to eat food &
strictly maintain personal hygiene. Share your experience of taking
food at tent at mina.
Tent location
All
the tents & roads at mina are mostly identical, so it is very
difficult to identify own tent when go out from tent for any purpose.
Map of mina with road name & tent number is very important tool
to locate own tent. Before go to mina card with tent number &
address is given to every hajjis. So try to locate your tent in the
map, see the road name beside your tent. Make a study about all
neighboring road name & how to go from one road to another &
how to go jamarat from your tent & how to come back from jamarat.
It is also important to locate the bus or taxi station near to your
tent & how to go that station to go to Makkah. When you come back
from Makkah by bus or taxi at that time the station is not the same
from where you go to Makkah . It is another bus station at other
location. So make a study about the bus station location & how to
come back from there to your tent. Try to find out local bus or taxi
route at mina, arafa & Muzdalifah. Many hajjis face problem to
come back to own tent.
