ARFAT.. ===================== حج کی آمد ہے --------------------- حج سے مطلق ' اھلا' کا ایک نیا معلوماتی سلسلہ ----------------------------------------------------- فرام دی ڈیسک اف خاکروب حرمین شریفین وسیم احمد صدیقی خاکی پاینر ویب سائیٹ ' اھلا' ' ahlanpk.org ----------------------------------- ARFAT... 1 . This is the field (open air ground) where the largest and the greatest gathering of Muslims takes place every year on 9th of Zilhija (last month of islamic hijra calander). It is called "WAQOOF -E- ARFAT" (stay in Arfat). Muslims offer two combined prayers here under one Azan (Call for Prayer) on Haj Day.The QASAR of (shortened )Zuhar and Asar are offered here jointly just after concluding khtuba-e-haj. If anybody does not attend the gathering of Arfat on 9th Zilhija, his haj will not be considered valid. Haj is actually the name of Waqoof-e-Arfat (stay in arfat on 9th zilhigah) as there is no substitute or penalty (DAAM) If someone does not attend the stay of ARFAT on 9th of zilhija... Rest of the elements of Haj are not so important as it is. Fine ( daam ) may be given against other haj elements, if they are not performed by a pilgrim but Waqoof-e-Arfat is essential at every cost. 2 . As per Muslims beliefs, Arfat will be the ground of accountability on the "Day of Judgement" and every human being has to present himself before Almighty Allah with their acts what they had done during his life. 3 . "Masjid-e-Nimra"----the central mosque of Arfat and the famous historical "Mercy Mount" are also situated in this ground, where the last historic sermon was delivered by Prophet Muhammad (S. A. W.). 4 . For the comfort of pilgrims a number of trees have been planted in this ground which give shades to thousands of faithful in hot weather during Haj Sermon every year. Artificial light drizzle through fountains is showered over pilgrims to minimize the temperature. Yellow coloured high polls pitched to recognize the area of"Arfat". Excellent permanent arrangements of bathrooms and water supply has been made for lacs of muslims during haj. It is really a great achievement of Saudi Government. 5 .A Pilgrim of haj must has to visit Arfat but for a pilgrim umra this visit is not required. However the pilgrims of umra should try to visit this holy land of Arfat just to see.. Taxis and coaches take pilgrims of umra to show all places of ziara in makkah including Arfat. Taxis and coaches stop here in the bottom of mercy mount and let passengers to go outside.
