(Tamattu‘) means that the pilgrim enters the state of Ihram for
‘Umrah from the Miqat of his country, completes the ‘Umrah, then later
enters the state of Ihram for Hajj from Makkah.
The pilgrim is then called (Mutamatti‘) because during the period
between ‘Umrah and Hajj, he is allowed to enjoy what is normally
forbidden due to Ihram, such as wearing normal clothes, perfume, contact
with wife…
The Logical Plan available on the right hand side of the screen
explains step by step the stages performed by the (Mutamatti‘) pilgrim.
Allah said:
“Indeed, the first House [of
worship] established for mankind was that at Makkah – blessed and a
guidance for the worlds. In it are clear signs [such as] the standing
place of Abraham. And whoever enters it shall be safe. And [due] to
Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House – for whoever is able
to find thereto a way. But whoever disbelieves – then indeed, Allah is
free from need of the worlds.”
