Imam W. D. Mohammed(ra) "Choose Allah the Better over the Lesser" 7/14/85 Camden

Imam Muhammad: Yes, those Imams that can serve as guides for the Hajjis from our community, they should be identified and they should be the ones to organize the Hajjis from our community and to work with the travel agents in making arrangements overseas. And you are right. If we have Imams with knowledge of the Hajj procedure, and who can lead them in their tawaf, and to the different ritual locations, and can lead them as a guide for the Hajjis, then why would we have to get Saudis envolved for? The rest of the Muslims don't do that. They arrange for the Hajj and they go there just like anybody else, and nobody comes from the government to meet them or anything. And they go right to their location and they do it. That's the way it should be done.
