HAJJ: Merits and Precepts - Entrance InTo The Precincts Of Haram

Entrance into the precincts of Haram is, in fact, the rarely allowed admission into the magnificent sanctuary of the Lord of Glory, the Sublime. One should enter these precincts with careful vital feelings of His megnificence and dignity. The preceding Prophets (peace be on them) and virtuous eminent people in the past have accustomed to walk from here onward bare-footed. If it was not from 'Zee-Tuwa', a place outside the city of Mecca, or at the most on entering the Holy city of Mecca (Hayatul Qulob of Makhdom Hashim Sindi). But nowadays, we generally travel by motor vehicles and a dropping of our own choice is not possible. Moreover, our luggage in the bus certainly keeps our mind attached to it. Hence we enter the Haram while travelling in a motor vehicle but at the time of entrance one should be particular about repeating Talbiya again and again and about craving mercy of Allah with utmost expression of humiliation.
