One might say \"He Hajj-ed to the place\", meaning he intended for that place and arrived at it. However, in Islamic terminology, it refers to the intention to visit the Sacred House of Allah in Makkah Al-Mukarramah during the month of Dhu al-Hijjah of the Arabic calendar to perform specific acts of worship on appointed days. These acts of worship are known as the rituals of Hajj.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This article will provide a general background on Hajj to explain the nature and importance of Hajj certificates, which Muslims have taken as a testament to the completion of Hajj rituals, analyse them technically and present some classic and contemporary examples of artistic Hajj certificates.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-haydan-assoendawy-2895295-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/@haydan-as-soendawy-730525\/\">Haidan Sundowe's lens<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hajj in the Quran \u2013 The Beginning of the Hajj Story&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pilgrimage dates back thousands of years before the Prophethood, specifically to the time of Abraham, the Friend of God. When Sarah did not bear Abraham a child, she gifted him her maid, Hagar, who then bore him Ishmael, peace be upon him. Sarah was overcome with jealousy, as women sometimes are, so God Almighty commanded Abraham to settle Hagar and her son Ishmael <strong>\u201cIn a barren valley, near Your forbidden House.\u201d<\/strong> And Ibrahim called upon his Lord: <strong>\u201cAnd make the hearts of people incline towards them\u201d<\/strong> The call of the Friend of God has been answered, as people flock year after year in ever-increasing numbers to the Sacred House of God, responding to God's call to perform Hajj and pilgrimage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And in the Almighty's saying in Surat Al-Imran: <strong>\u201cVerily, the first House appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah, a blessed place, a guidance for all worlds. In it are manifest Signs: the Station of Abraham. And whoever enters it is safe. And pilgrimage to the House is a duty unto mankind for the sake of Allah, for whoever can find a way thereto.\u201d<\/strong> The intention of the first line of the noble verse is that the Sacred House of God is the first house established for the pure worship of God Almighty. The verse generalizes <strong>\u201cIt has been decreed for mankind\u201d<\/strong> All of them, and did not specify a particular category of people. Whoever entered this sacred house was safe in all respects, and this was a sign of God Almighty's signs and the reason for people's love for this house. The obligation of Hajj was ordained by the Almighty's saying <strong>\u201cAnd [due] to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House.\u201d<\/strong> It was truly a divine obligation upon people to perform it, however, Allah Almighty lightened the burden on people by stipulating the condition of being able to do so, and there is no excuse for those who cannot find a way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The number of pilgrims for the Hijri year 1444 (2023 AD) stood at 1,845,045 from within and outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; 21% of whom were from Arab countries; 63.5% from Asian countries; 13.4% from non-Arabic-speaking African countries; and 2.1% from Europe, the Americas and Australia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The wisdom behind legislating Hajj<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Holy Quran has urged pilgrimage for its worldly and religious benefits, as God Almighty said <strong>\u201cSo that they may witness advantages for themselves and mention the name of Allah on allocated days for what He has provided them of cattle, so eat from them and feed the miserable poor.\u201d<\/strong> As Hajj is a gathering of Muslims from all over the land, east and west, in one place, the primary life benefit is getting to know each other, cooperation, exchanging experiences, and trade. For example, pilgrims from East Asian countries would meet Silk Road merchants and form trade relations with them. Not to mention that the city of Jeddah, located north of Mecca, is an important commercial centre as it lies on the coast.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for the religious benefit, it is to turn to God Almighty with a feeling of humility and need for Him, however harsh the circumstances of the journey may be. This is a return of the human being to himself through contemplation, so hearts soften, minds remember, and souls humble themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/haidan-IAwnp88Fz8Y-unsplash-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/IAwnp88Fz8Y\">Through the lens of Hidan<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hajj certificates<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given the greatness of the Hajj pilgrimage in Islam, and the honour a pilgrim receives from visiting the Sacred House, Muslims have shown artistic visual interest in the Hajj ritual through Hajj certificates. A Hajj certificate is a written or drawn document showing the pilgrim's itinerary of holy places visited during their journey to Mecca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every Hajj document testifies to the owner's performance of the Hajj rituals. It must include the pilgrim's name, and if it is on behalf of another person, it must include the name of the person represented, which will be detailed in the section on examples of Hajj certificates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the primary destination for pilgrims, Mecca and its revered Kaaba were the main element in Hajj certificates. For instance, in the Hajj certificate below, the Kaaba is at the centre of the scroll, and all depicted sacred scenes are oriented towards the Kaaba, indicating it as the central pole and the centre of attraction located in the heart of the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"64\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-1024x64.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-1024x64.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-300x19.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-768x48.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-1536x95.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-2048x127.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-18x1.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/10-1-600x37.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below is the manuscript, divided into two sections for clarity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-1024x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-1024x168.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-300x49.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-768x126.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-18x3.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7-600x98.jpg 600w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/7.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-1024x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-1024x168.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-300x49.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-768x126.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-18x3.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1-600x98.jpg 600w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/8-1.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The illuminated city of Medina gained its visual importance in Hajj testimonies due to its historical role in Islam as the first capital of Islam and the burial place of the final prophet, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In contrast, Jerusalem, which was cosmically and eschatologically closer to Mecca and was the qibla (direction of prayer) before the Kaaba, thus gained its spatial significance in Hajj testimonies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each of the three cities: Makkah Al-Mukarramah, Madinah Al-Munawwarah, and Jerusalem, formed a two-dimensional visual group drawn with various materials. An example of this will be mentioned in the paragraph on examples of Hajj testimonials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The holy sites that a pilgrim passes differ from one person to another depending on their journey. Some pass through the shrines of the Levant and Iraq, while others limit themselves to the holy sites of the Hijaz. However, the common site in all Hajj manuscripts is the revered Kaaba in Mecca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paper scrolls were the most famous type of documentation for the Hajj journey as they were easy to carry. Many pilgrims used them to document their own Hajj journey by visually depicting places and writing about the stations they stopped at. Hand drawings were the most common at the time, and in some cases, hand printing. The optics of paper scrolls show drawings of Mecca and Medina, as they are two main routes in the Hajj journey, and in rare cases, Jerusalem. While Hajj certificates document the holy sites visited by the pilgrim on their journey, some rare certificates documented the precise journey with all its stops from the pilgrim's homeland to Mecca, and back to the homeland again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paper scrolls from the Islamic Middle Ages depicted various sacred sites of Mecca such as Mount Arafat, Muzdalifah, and Mina, drawn in black ink with a fine quill and coloured with watercolours and gold leaf in some cases, with the drawings being characterised by their single perspective. An example of one such testimony is that of Al-Hajjah Maymuna bint Muhammad bin Abdullah in the year 1433 CE, which will be mentioned in detail below in the paragraph on examples of pilgrimage testimonies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the early twentieth century, printed Hajj certificates became widespread. These were usually produced in Mecca, Medina, and Cairo, featuring rich colours and simple artistic designs, typically including images of the three most important mosques in Islamic history: Al-Masjid al-Haram, Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, and the Dome of the Rock. Below is a visual example of such certificates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-1024x709.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1008\" style=\"width:839px;height:581px\" width=\"839\" height=\"581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-1024x709.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-300x208.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-768x531.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-18x12.jpeg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9-600x415.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/9.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 839px) 100vw, 839px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>A printed Hajj certificate among the possessions of the National Library of Qatar<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hajj Certificate Samples&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wherever they settle and depart, people are accustomed to searching for something that reminds them of their journeys. So what if it's a spiritual journey that may only happen once in a lifetime?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To document this spiritual journey, Muslims were keen on the subject of Hajj certificates and documenting their journeys on scrolls of paper that they carried with them wherever they went during their pilgrimage to Mecca. The Muslims' interest in Hajj certificates and documenting their journeys is merely a reflection of their devotion to the Hajj ritual.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below are some classical and contemporary examples of pilgrimage certificates, which we will examine from an artistic perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">01<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"909\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1009\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1-165x300.jpg 165w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/1-7x12.jpg 7w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>A hand-drawn pilgrimage certificate in the collection of the Aga Khan Museum, 1778 CE.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Hajj certificate from the year 1778 attests to the owner Bibi Khanum, who paid Mr. Ali Wali to perform the Hajj on her behalf. The visual of the certificate shows a drawing of the Masjid al-Haram from a single-point perspective, flattening the three-dimensional real-life scenery. The drawing also depicts scenes of the Kaaba, such as the Holy Kaaba, Hijr Ismail, the Well of Zamzam, the Station of Ibrahim, and other existing stations at the time, as well as the mosque's minarets and gates. Considering this certificate, it also serves as a spatial documentation of the holy sites of the Kaaba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The general colours of the painting depend on red, brown and grey on brown paper. It is noted that the Kaaba is the primary element of the document, occupying the center of the page in its square shape, differing from the rest of the triangular shapes, and all the minarets and stations in the Haram are oriented towards it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The certificate was painted using ink, watercolour and silver, and it is in the Aga Khan Museum's collection of Islamic art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">02<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"727\" src=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1024x727.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1024x727.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-1536x1091.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3-600x426.jpg 600w, https:\/\/socofujairah.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>A printed Hajj certificate among the possessions of Barry Lawrence Ruderman for rare maps.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;The art form that relied on frames and decorations and the use of Arabic calligraphy, and usually contained images of the three most important mosques in Islamic history: the Grand Mosque, the Prophet's Mosque, and the Dome of the Rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Hajj certificate from 1930 displays an illustration of the three holy mosques in Islam, based on the noble Hadith: \u201cJourneys should not be undertaken except to three mosques: the Sacred Mosque, my mosque (the Prophet's Mosque), and Al-Aqsa Mosque.\u201d Above each mosque's illustration is a Quranic verse, emphasizing the significance of these holy sites.
