Episode notes
Hajj Post-Conquest
- Muslims did not perform Hajj in the eighth year of Hijra after conquering Makkah due to security concerns.
- The Prophet (PBUH) appointed a local Makkawi convert as governor because Muhajirun could not return to Makkah.
Prophet's Absence from Hajj
- In the ninth year of Hijra, the Prophet (PBUH) sent Abu Bakr to lead Hajj, but did not participate himself.
- The Prophet (PBUH) refused to perform Hajj while Mushrikeen practiced tawaf naked.
Tawaf Naked
- Some pre-Islamic Arabs performed tawaf naked, justifying it as returning to their original state or avoiding wearing clothes they sinned in.
- This practice wasn't universal, and some saw it as a sign of piety, while Meccans considered themselves exempt.
