The inner essence of Hajj consists of several stations: First station: The journey from the creation to the Truth (Min al-khalq ila al-Haqq), severing ties with everything other than Allah to connect with God; this station itself has several levels: First, Tawbah (Repentance): returning from the internal Satan and the external Taghut towards God; Second, Yaqzah (Awakening): complete awakening and awareness of the value and status of the sanctuary of God's house; Third, Takhliyah (Emptying): emptying the inner self of satanic qualities and replacing them with Rahmanic (merciful) qualities; Fourth, Tajliyah (Manifestation): purifying the heart and distinguishing values from anti-values. Second station: The journey from the Truth within the Truth (Min al-Haqq fi al-Haqq): the continuation and persistence of the connection with God and striving to strengthen it; this station involves several acts: 1. Ihram: entering a state/area where certain things become forbidden for the pilgrim; 2. Tawaf: this act is an imitation of the angels who are constantly circling around the Throne of God; 3. Prayer of Tawaf: when reaching the station of servitude, one must perform a prayer of gratitude; 4. Sa'i between Safa and Marwa: evoking the sweet memory of Ibrahim and embodying the hope of a woman in God's mercy who ultimately reaches her goal; 5. Taqsir: shifting attention from spiritual pleasures to physical pleasures, through which everything except pleasant scents and enjoyment of women becomes permissible for the pilgrim; 6. Movement towards Arafat: the place of confessing sins, gaining gnosis (Ma'rifat), and renewing monotheism (Tawhid); 7. Movement towards Mushaa'ir: a place where consciousness and intelligence are gained through the remembrance and invocation of God; 8. Movement towards Mina: the land of hope, mercy, gnosis, response to prayer, and seeking happiness in this world and the hereafter; 9. Stoning of the three Jamarat: stoning the internal Satan (the commanding self/Nafs al-Ammara), the external Satan (Iblis and his helpers), and the human Taghut, meaning the enemies of religion and Islam; 10. Sacrifice (Qurbani): an act that symbolizes passing and sacrifice in the path of the Beloved; 11. Halq or Taqsir: shaving or cutting away the remaining impurities and vices, and repairing the heart from the rust of selfishness, pride, and hypocrisy; 12. Tawaf al-Nisa: its symbol is that no matter how much a human reaches the station of servitude, their mastery over sexual instinct requires the grace of God. Third station: The journey from the Truth to the creation (Min al-Haqq ila al-khalq): of course, this station is more difficult than the first and second; because the first and second were about self-purification, but this station is about building others; meaning the pilgrim must transfer everything they have learned from Hajj to others.

Abstract The inner essence of Hajj consists of several stages: The first stage is the journey from the creation to the Truth (man al-khalq ila al-haqq), detaching from everything other than Allah to connect with God; this stage itself has several levels: First, Tawbah (Repentance): returning from the internal Satan and external Taghut towards God; Second, Yaqzah (Awakening): complete awakening and awareness of the value and status of the sanctuary of God's house; Third, Takhliyah (Emptying): emptying the inner self from satanic qualities and replacing them with divine (Rahmani) qualities; Fourth, Tajliyah (Manifestation): purifying the heart and distinguishing values from anti-values.
Tawaf al-Nisa: Its symbol is that no matter how much a person reaches the station of servitude, their mastery over sexual instinct requires the grace of God. The third stage: The journey from the Truth to the creation (man al-haqq ila al-khalq): Of course, this stage is more difficult than the first and second stages; because the first and second were about self-construction, but this stage is about construction for others; meaning the pilgrim must transfer everything they have learned from Hajj to others.
The first level, Tawbah (Repentance): Returning from internal devils and external tyrants toward God, returning from animalistic nature toward human nature, and turning away from whims, desires, and the inclinations of the commanding self (nafs al-ammara) toward spirituality and moral virtues.
For this reason, the same matter is mentioned in our traditions: "From Ja'far ibn Muhammad (peace be upon him): When one of you performs Hajj, let him conclude it with our visitation, because that is part of the completion of Hajj" (Wasail al-Shia, Vol. 10, p.
