The signs of an accepted Hajj or 'Umrah


Question: Are there any signs which appear upon those whose performance of the Hajj or the 'Umrah is accepted?

Response: It is possible for there to be signs for the one whose Hajj, fasting, charity or prayer has been accepted by Allaah and they are: the opening of the heart (to good), happiness of the heart and a lighted face. Certainly, for worshipping (Allaah) there are signs that appear on the body, signs that are visible and signs that are hidden. Some of the Pious Predecessors have mentioned that from the signs that a good (act) has been accepted (by Allaah) is that he will be granted the towfeeq to do (yet) another good (act). Certainly the towfeeq of Allaah for him to do more good (acts) after it, is evidence that Allaah ('Azza wa Jall) has accepted his previous good (acts). He has made it easy for him to do another good act and is happy with him for it.

We'll never know if our deeds have been accepted or the opposite. We just try to get better.

Having a certain dream usually is another sign. After I went to umrah I had a beautiful dream and I interpreted it (using a book) and it meant that my ''sheet'' has been wiped clean, i.e. my sins were forgiven. I hope this was true!
