The Chief Imam of Area 10 Mosque, Abuja, Sheikh Yahya Al-Yolawi, on Friday reportedly advised intending pilgrims to settle their debts and leave their wills behind before travelling to Saudi Arabia.
The Abuja-based Islamic scholar, while delivering Jumma’at sermon titled ‘Essential tips for Hajj Preparations’, said the need to leave a will behind was because the journey to Holy land may be the final journey for some pilgrims.
He explained that it was an invitation from Allah to the most famous acts of worship, adding that hajj was a unique and extra ordinary journey in the life time of all pilgrims.
Al-Yolawi said, “An intending pilgrim should settle his debts and leave behind him a clear record as well as writing all his wills or what he intends to pass to his family.
“Journey to hajj requires high level of patience, because it was always accompanied with difficulties ranging from fatigue to physical and social abnormalities as well as intolerance from other pilgrims.
“One should not allow Shaitan (devil) to hijack him and spoil his hajj out of ignorance or annoyance. This emphasises on the importance of piety as first ingredient of one’s journey to Mecca, which means to maintain good relationship with your Lord by devoting yourself to obey him.”
According to the cleric, the intention behind one’s journey to hajj must be for the sake of Allah alone as, whoever, performs any act of worship in order to please people or gain popularity has done wrong.
While admonishing pilgrims that they should ensure that their sources of income are clean and legitimate as that would please Allah, the cleric said, “Prophets Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: learn your rituals from me, for I do not know whether I would be performing Hajj after this Hajj of mine,” (Muslim Hadith no 1297).”
On taking photographs, Al-Yolawi warned that it was wrong to take photographs for whatever purpose while observing hajj rites, saying that such action could contradict pilgrims’ sincerity of performing hajj for the sake of Allah.
He, however, prayed to Allah to continue to protect Islam and safeguard Nigerian pilgrims as they take off to Saudi Arabia, saying, “May the Lord accept their Hajj, prayers, grant their supplications and bring them back to us in peace and safety.”
Wtf hell no
Nonsense, if you don’t know anything please don’t make a stupid article. Don’t make any falsehood to others

Nigerians and their ignorance. They will never read the full content of a news before commenting. Even the pic and headline doesn’t match the content, Bloggers n their cheap ways of seeking attention.
If you guys don’t understand why he said prepare to die, why don’t you ask before any silly comments
The people commenting rubbish about this accident
You can’t know it because you are not a muslim
lmao wai where is hajj?…why are you commenting when you dont know what it is about
They won’t bother to ask or confirm. Religion fights n tribalism has ruined Nigerians.

Lol, where’s hajj?
Oscar Ossy,you are very stupid and indiscipline,,,why not we respect one another even if we dont share the same religion..The funniest disease that is in all of you is stupidity.If you know religion very well,you would have carved your words and not to call our prophet terrorist.Jesus christ is a noble prophet and very close to God,we the muslims belief that he is a prophet and we belief. in his book..Our difference is you dont belief in the noble and the last prophet Muhammed (PBUH).People used to hate the prophet but enemies like youn name the prophet after the trustworthy.He was a role model and if anyone is criticising islam whether directly or indirectly,the final day will come to you soon..
Foolish he goat,smelling thing. go slaughter ur family idiot.
See this boko haram of boy called drammeh. What are u saying. Kill your parent first na if their meat is not enough for u your siblings are very close to u too. You can start slaughtering them. Animal in human body like u. Cow

You are much young and talk carelessly, try and seek for knowledge then you will be in best position to judge
Haba Malam soboda Allah. The world is complaining about intolerance of Muslims and you wanna slaughter someone because of his opinion?
Fools die like fools that the are.
No amount of mudsliging and propaganda will ever undermine Islam. I can understand the intent behind this post but notwithstanding we shall keep our cool. ALLAHU AKBAR!
THEY WILL GO To SEE ALLAH

Rubbish ,even if you are in your house &its your time to die you can’t stop death
Try to be a good Christian. What u r saying here dnt make u one
I’m moving to the moon
i think this’s pretty simple, the Imam hard a prophecy and stated it out. that the content of the phrase, but our angry brda’s are annoyed due to the rapid confusion being cos world widely by the wrong orientation in the Quran we all know the word’s of God and the world of a War Load, i think Mohamed was a war Load and not a prophet, cos prophet’s are know for meekness not violent ways, let me give u guys a brief story about my linage. my forefather’s were Muslims from Edo state in Nigeria, up to my grandfather but my father turned the christian way but still bears Muslim names Yasufu. what am i trying to say, we have to be wise or be use by the devil. cos that what he is doing using the Muslims as his foot step. my Muslims brdas is time to choose the true religion cos i know not as a christian but as a human that Muslim is a wrong believe take it or leave it i am not perfect doe only, God.
Guys listen if they bring a drug dealer here and Isis which will be your first to kill among d two.Mohamed Drammeh u are a Isis indeed.

Try to be a good Christian. Jesus love us
I am a proud ANTI-CHRIST..!
And so what..?
Jesus never existed..!
Mohammed is a mosquito..!
Religion is a trap..!
Return to your root all you africans..!
The white men brainwashed our Ancestors into believing in nönesensé just to put us behind.
There’re so many versions of buybull.
Most of you only have one version.
You have not even read it from beginning to end.
You only read the part that justify your downfall.
The people Who gave us CHRISTIANITY and ISLAM and buybull and Jesus Rice and m’mary and Mohammed, etc, are the same people who sponsor terrorism, wars, sickness, food poisoning, and every EVil thing you can imagine.
They made us to believe that ANTI-CHRIST will come because they know some of us will eventually find out the game they played on us.
So I am a proud ANTI-CHRIST..!
All religion is crap and Rūbbish..!
If you are fighting somebody because of jesus or Mohammed, it means you are a terrorist.. Because that was how religion started in the Olden days..!
People were killed just to usher in religion.
And people are going to be kïlled just to realize it’s a scam..!
It’s an eye for an eye..!
You don’t have to believe me but get ready to join other fools in the grave if you are still a Fool..!
All pastors are thïevès thïevès thïevès thïevès..!
Church is a Business enterprise..!
Our traditional Spiritual ways is the truth..!
Be proud of you..!
Those who are not proud of their root are not fit to live..!
You can call me whatever,
But only the truth can set us free..!
So wen u bow it means u are performing Islam… Ur brain is on transfer.
