AFTER HAJJ

Do not delay the Fardh Hajj
When Allah bestows His Favour on any fortunate person to perform Hajj, he should not delay at all in the execution of that duty; particularly the Fardh Hajj. Under no circumstances should it be postponed unnecessarily, because this only affords Shaytaan the opportunity to involve one in unnecessary activities which will keep him so busy that the journey to the Blessed Places is postponed or cancelled.

Learn The Details and Masaa'il Of Hajj

It is compulsory for a person who wishes to perform Hajj to learn the necessary Masaa’il well before the time of Hajj. When a firm intention is made then first learn the necessary Masaa’il, or acquire these from a reliable and recognized Aalim (scholar).
It is the duty of every intending Haajjee to learn the details and Masaa'il of Hajj. Ibne Ameer-ul-Haajj rahmatullahi alayh writes that for a Haajjee it is of great importance to learn everything he is required to do before proceeding for Hajj, during Hajj, and after Hajj, as Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam  has made it obligatory on every person to seek knowledge. For this reason it is necessary that one should learn all that which is fardh, Sunnah, Makrooh and haraam in Hajj.
