Dear Quran Lovers,
Let us continue to recite surah 2 Al-Baqoroh, synopsis of Islam. Please refer to the text:
أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(103) فَمَن تَعَجَّلَ فِى يَوْمَيْنِ فَلَآ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ = "Fa Mant~Ta-'aj-ja-la Fi~ Yau-mai-ni Fa La~~ Ith-ma 'A-lai-hi",  "Fa" = Then, "Man" = who, "Ta-'aj-ja-la" = to hurry, "Fi" = after, "Yau-mai-ni" = two days, "Fa" = then, "La~" = no, "Ith-ma" = sin, " 'A-lai" = upon, "Hi" = him,
وَمَن تَأَخَّرَ فَلَآ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ = "Wa Mant~Ta-akh-kho-ro Fa La~ Ith-ma 'A-lai~h".  "Wa" = and, "Man" = who, "Ta-akh-kho-ro" = delay, "Fa" = then, "La~" = no, "Ith-ma" = sin, " 'A-lai" = upon, "Hi" = him.
"Fa Mant~Ta-'aj-ja-la Fi~ Yau-mai-ni Fa La~~Ith-ma 'A-lai Hi Wa Mant~Ta-akh-kho-ro Fa La~~ Ith-ma 'A-lai~h".  = Then he who wants to hasten (to leave Mina) after two days (stay), incurs no sin. And he who delays/stays longer, incurs no sin too.
ج = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
لِمَنِ اُتَّقَى = "Li Ma-nit-Ta-qo~".  "Li" = For, "Ma-ni" = who, "it-Ta-qo~" = fear and devoted to.
"Li Ma-nit-Ta-qo~" = (that is) for he who fears and is devoted to (Allah).
قلى = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
وَاُتَّقُواْ اُللهَ وَاُعْلَمُواْ~ أَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ = "Wat-Ta-qul-Loha Waa-la-mu~~ An~na Kum I-lai Hi Tuh-sya-ru~~n".  "Wa" = And, Thus, "it-Ta-qu~" = fear and be devoted to, "Al-Loha" = Allah, "Wa" = and, "ii-la-mu~" = be informed, "An~na" = that, "Kum" = you (pl.), "I-lai" = to, "Hi" = Him, "Tuh-sya-ru~na" = you (pl.) be gathered together.
"Wat-Ta-qul-Loha Waa-la-mu~ An~na Kum I-lai Hi Tuh-sya-ru~~n".  =  Thus, fear and be devoted to Allah, and be informed that you (pl.) will be gathered (before Allah s.w.t. on the Judgment Day).
(This verse means that when a person had stayed two days during the 2 Tasy-riq Days (i.e. the 11th and the 12th days of Dzul-Hijjah), he leaves Mina for Mecca on the 12th of Dzul-Hijjah, (this is called "Nafar Awwal"/first hasten), incurs no sin, but he must make sure to be back to Mina before sunset on that 12th of Dzul-Hijjah, or he waits till the 13th of Dzul-Hijjah, then leave Mina for Mecca, (this is called Nafar Thani/second hasten), incurs no sin too, thus may be chosen (either to take the Nafar Awwal or the Nafar Thani) by those who fear and are devoted to Allah s.w.t. Allah s.w.t. reminded mankind that they should fear His punishment and that they should obey His commandments and leave those acts that He s.w.t. prohibited. For He s.w.t. will gather all mankind before Him s.w.t. on the Judgmenmt Day, to be judged).
                                                         oooo000oooo
Let us now continue to look into the Rules and Regulations of rites for Hajj:
(ii) Wajibat Hajj/rites that are obligatory to be performed:
  (a) Ihrom/to be in a state of ritual consecration/become holy beginning at the "Miqot Makani"/meeting point of Hajj, and on the "Miqot Zamani"/times of Hajj.
  (b) To be at Muz-dalifah on that evening (Wukuf at Arafah), after sunset until after midnight.
  (c) To perform Stones Throwing at the Jamrotul 'Aqobah on the 'Idd/the Feast of Immolation Day.
  (d) Stones Throwing at the three Jamroh, the first Jamroh, the second Jamroh and the third Jamroh/'Aqobah on the 11th, 12th, and the 13th of Dzul-Hijjah. Each Jamroh, one must throw seven small stones, and it must be done each day at Zhuhur time and after.
  (e) To spend a night in Mina.
  (f) To perform Towaf Widaa/farewell Tawaf.
  (g) To avert one self from committing things that are forbidden in Hajj.
       Should any one of the above failed the be performed, the Hajj is valid, but one must make redemption by "Dam"/blood/sacrifice a goat.
  (B)  'Umroh/Umra: (to be continued).
Until we meet again in the next session, see you all Quran Lovers later.
