Atlas of Hajj and Umrah history and jurisprudence

Indeed, everyone whom Allah honored with performing the pilgrimage or Umrah during recent decades returned having seen and witnessed types of behaviors and conduct among some pilgrims and visitors that are not befitting a Muslim who believes that revering the rites is from Taqwa of the hearts, and that it helps renew the covenant with Allah the Almighty, and purifies the soul from its impurities and burdens, and stirs its Islamic innermost feelings and emotions towards further remembrance of Allah's greatness and feeling humility before Him. The unfortunate and notable observation is that there is a great ignorance of the rulings and etiquettes of Hajj among many groups of Muslims, which has led to significant damages among the pilgrims and has given an image unworthy of this great nation. Therefore, the author has strived through this atlas to introduce this generation to the nature of the names in Mecca and the Holy Sites from a Sharia, historical, linguistic, and geographical perspective, with references to texts, maps, and images in the jurisprudence section, so that the pilgrim or visitor can perform this great ritual with an authentic cultural background.
