Haram Boundary(حدود الحرم) The delineated borders of the sacred precinct (Haram) of মক্কা মুকাররমা, within which special religious rules apply. The boundary extends various distances from the কাবা শরীফ in different directions and is marked by boundary stones and modern signage.
حدود الحرم
The Haram of মক্কা মুকাররমা is a sacred zone established by Prophet Ibrahim and confirmed by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon them). The boundaries were set by নবী করীম and are marked by stone pillars and modern road signs. The distances from the কাবা শরীফ to the boundary vary by direction: Tan'im (northwest, ~7.5 km), আরাফাত road (southeast, ~21 km), Ji'ranah (northeast, ~29 km), and Hudaybiyyah/Shumaisi (west, ~22 km). Within these boundaries: hunting land animals is prohibited for everyone (not just those in ইহরাম), cutting or uprooting trees and natural vegetation is হারাম, lost property can only be picked up to announce it (not to keep), and fighting is prohibited. The Haram boundary is distinct from the miqat boundaries — the miqat is where ইহরাম must be assumed for হজ্জ or উমরাহ, while the Haram boundary defines the sacred precinct itself. The area between the Haram boundary and the miqat is called the Hill.
