How many times do we have to do the pilgrimage?
-
Peace Meteora,
It depends on what reference you're looking at. According to the sunna, it has to be performed once in a person's lifetime. However, it can be done as many times as desired... The Qur'aan doesn't directly talk about a pilgrimage at all, though, making it unrequired.
Peace,
Ahmad

...really? so what are the verses talking about that traditionalists say commands muslims to make hajj to mecca?
btw i think this whole mecca thing is like one of the worst idol worship-related things in islam! they might as well have a cow statue there for people to smooch.
but my intentional vs non-intentional shirk thread says it all when it comes to my opinion on shirk. that's why i think pretty much only the fabricators are going to hell.

People already smooch "some" lame pieces of the "black stone"
In a hadhith I read it says that the black stone was once white, but humanity's sins have caused it to become black.
