11. Remain in the company of pious people throughout the journey. Such people will assist you to remain motivated and focused. If you are traveling in a group then appoint a person who is pious and knowledgeable as the ameer of the group.

12. Display good character before people throughout the journey. Overlook the faults of people and do not enter into arguments. Remember, at all times, that you are soon going to be the guest of Allah Ta‘ala in the mubaarak lands.

13. During the journey or when traveling between Makkah Mukarramah and Madinah Munawwarah, whenever you ascend a high area or hill, recite takbeer thrice, and whenever you descend a low area or hill, recite tasbeeh thrice.

14. Take sufficient wealth to last you throughout your journey. If Allah Ta‘ala has blessed you with wealth, then take extra wealth so that you may spend on the creation.

15. When spending in the path of hajj, do so with generosity and ease and not with miserliness and stinginess. For every Rand that a person spends in the path of hajj, the reward shall be that of seven hundred Rands. However, do not be extravagant. If a person spends more than he normally would in Makkah Mukarramah and Madinah Munawwarah on food etc. and his intention is to assist the people of Makkah Mukarramah, then this is a deed worthy of reward and is not extravagance.
