  • يا حجاج بيت الله الحرام أكثروا من الدعاء في هذا اليوم المبارك (يوم عرفة) ورددواهذا الدعاء :لا اله الا الله وحده لاشريك له له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيئ قدير فهو خير الدعاء كما قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
  • This place marks Arafat mount for Hajjis, there is no other significance to it other than that. the white pillar at the top is just a mark no more.

  • سُوۡرَةُ البَقَرَة ٱلۡحَجُّ أَشۡهُرٌ۬ مَّعۡلُومَـٰتٌ۬‌ۚ فَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ ٱلۡحَجَّ فَلَا رَفَثَ وَلَا فُسُوقَ وَلَا جِدَالَ فِى ٱلۡحَجِّ‌ۗ وَمَا تَفۡعَلُواْ مِنۡ خَيۡرٍ۬ يَعۡلَمۡهُ ٱللَّهُ‌ۗ وَتَزَوَّدُواْ فَإِنَّ خَيۡرَ ٱلزَّادِ ٱلتَّقۡوَىٰ‌ۚ وَٱتَّقُونِ يَـٰٓأُوْلِى ٱلۡأَلۡبَـٰبِ (١٩٧) Al-Baqara The pilgrimage is (in) the well-known months, and whoever is minded to perform the pilgrimage therein (let him remember that) there is (to be) no lewdness nor abuse nor angry conversation on the pilgrimage. And whatsoever good ye do Allah knoweth it. So make provision for yourselves (Hereafter); for the best provision is to ward off evil. Therefore keep your duty unto Me, O men of understanding. (197) Surat Al Baqoroh : 197 [Musim] haji adalah beberapa bulan yang dimaklumi,[1] barangsiapa yang menetapkan niatnya dalam bulan itu akan mengerjakan haji, maka tidak boleh rafats [2] berbuat fasik dan berbantah-bantahan di dalam masa mengerjakan haji. Dan apa yang kamu kerjakan berupa kebaikan, niscaya Allah mengetahuinya. Berbekallah, dan sesungguhnya sebaik-baik bekal adalah takwa [3] dan bertakwalah kepada-Ku hai orang-orang yang berakal. (197) Do’a to Allah SWT., for yourself, mu’minin wal mu’mintat, muslimin wal muslimat and also for me too, Jazakallooh khoiron katsiiron. Prepared by H.
