The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said: “O Allah, forgive the Pilgrim
and those for whom the Pilgrim seeks forgiveness!”
It is related that Ali ibn Muwaffaq made several Pilgrimages on behalf of the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, He said: “I then saw the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, in a vision and he asked me:
„Ibn Muwaffaq, did you make Pilgrimage on my behalf?‟ When I said „Yes‟, he
said: „And you cried „labbayk‟ (Obedient to You my Lord) on my behalf?‟ I
confirmed this and he said: „Then I shall reward you for it on the Day of
Resurrection, I shall take you by the hand at the waiting place and lead you into
Paradise, while all creatures are in dread of the Reckoning‟.”
According to Mujahad and other scholars, when the Pilgrims reach Makkah they
are met by the angels, who salute those riding camels, shake hands with those
riding donkeys, and embrace those walking on foot. Al-Hasan says that anyone
who dies just after Ramadan just after a holy campaign or just after a Pilgrimage,
dies a martyr. Umar said: “The Pilgrim is forgiven, as are those for whom he
and those for whom the Pilgrim seeks forgiveness!”
