عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: سمعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول:
«مَنْ حَجَّ لِلهِ فَلَمْ يَرْفُثْ وَلَمْ يَفْسُقْ رَجَعَ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ».

[صحيح] - [متفق عليه] - [صحيح البخاري: 1521]

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) say:
"Whoever performs Hajj without engaging in rafath (sexual relations or obscene speech) or sinning will return like the day his mother gave birth to him."

[Authentic hadith] - [Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim] - [Sahih Bukhari - 1521]

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that whoever performs Hajj without engaging in sexual relations and obscene speech, or evil acts, he will return home sinless. Sinning also includes doing the things prohibited while being in ihram. If these things are avoided, he returns from Hajj with his sins forgiven, as a baby is born free from sin.

Benefits from the Hadith

  1. Although sinning is always prohibited, its prohibition becomes more emphatic during Hajj with respect to its rituals.
  2. Every human being is born free from faults and sins; so, he is not responsible for the sins of others.
