⚫The importance and excellence of Hajj in the light of Quran and Sunnah.
Obligatory worship
The Holy Qur'an has made Hajj obligatory on every person who has the ability to pay the expenses of Hajj, as Allah Almighty has said, and Hajj to the House of Allah is obligatory on people for the pleasure of Allah, whoever can afford to go there.Affordability of Hajj means that the person has the ability to bear the financial expenses incurred on Hajj and in his absence, his family members do not suffer financially, i.e. food and drink and the necessities of life are available and Hajj So that there is no obstacle in reaching the House of Allah, the following are some of the sayings of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, about the virtues of Hajj.
1.Reward of Hajj Mabarur(مقبول)
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) explained the importance of Hajj and said that whoever performs Hajj and his Hajj is accepted in the presence of Allah, the only reward for Hajj is Paradise.

Bukhari:1773
2.Guests of Allah(اللہ تعالی کے مہمان)
While describing the importance and virtues of Hajj, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) described the Haji as a guest of Allah. Just as the honor and respect of the guest is done by the host and the host does a lot for the happiness of the guest. Similarly, Allah Ta'ala also fulfills the good wishes of the Haji and accepts the prayers.
(Those who perform Hajj and Umrah are guests of Allah, He accepts what they pray to Allah and if they seek forgiveness from Him, He will forgive them.) Ibn e Maja:2892
3.Forgiveness of sins(گناہوں کی معافی)
According to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), a person who performs Hajj and his Hajj is accepted, becomes pure and clean from sins like a child born from its mother's womb without any sins.
(Whoever performs Hajj and avoids sins and evils during Hajj, he will return as pure and clean as if he was born from his mother's womb) Sahi Bukhari:1521
