Sa’i between Safa and Marwa

6 questions

Sa’i is walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwa, remembering how Hajar searched for water for her son Ismail. Men walk briskly between the green lights, women walk at a normal pace.

Shaving or trimming hair

4 questions

Men shave the whole head or trim hair from all over it. Shaving carries more reward: the Prophet ﷺ prayed three times for those who shave and once for those who trim. Trimming only part of the head is not enough.
