Hajj In Light Of The Quran And Hadith not performed Hajj. Should he borrow for Hajj?” He replied, “No.” (Musnad al-Shafi’i, Hadith No. 745) 17. ‘When a man sets out for Hajj with pure provisions, and he places his foot in the stirrup (footrest), saying, “Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk” (Here I am, O Allah, at Your service), a caller from the heavens calls out, “Labbayk and Sa’dayk (May you be joyous in response), your provision is lawful, your con-veyance is lawful, and your Hajj is accepted, free from sin.” But when he sets out with impure provisions and places his foot in the stirrup, saying, “Lab-bayk,” a caller from the heavens calls out, “No Labbayk, no welcome. Your provisions are unlawful, your wealth is unlawful, and your Hajj is not accept-ed.”’ (Al-Mu’jam al-Awsat by Al-Tabarani, Hadith No. 5228) 18. “O Allah, we ask You for piety and righteousness on this journey, and such deeds that are pleasing to You. O Allah, You are the Companion in the journey and the Guardian of the family.” (Sunan al-Kubra by AlBayhaqi, Hadith No. 10316) 19. “Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Verily, all praise, grace, and sovereignty belong to You. You have no partner.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith No. 1549; Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 1184) 20. “O Allah, make this Hajj an accepted one, and a means of forgiveness for my sins.” (Musnad Ahmad, Hadith No. 4061)
