Fard(فَرْض) Fard is an wajib religious duty in Islam, commanded by Allah. In the context of Haji, Fard acts (also called Arkan/pillars) are essential rites without which the ibadah haji is invalid.
فَرْض
Fard represents the highest level of obligation in Islamic jurisprudence. An act classified as Fard must be performed, and its omission is sinful unless there is a valid excuse recognized by Shariah. In Haji, the Fard acts (called Arkan or pillars) are those without which the Haji is completely invalid and cannot be rectified by a penalty sacrifice. The Arkan of Haji menurut jumhur ulama are: Ihram (entering the sacred state with intention), Wuquf at Arafah (standing at Arafah on the 9th of Dzulhijjah), Tawaf al-Ifadah (the essential circumambulation), and sa'i between Safa and Marwa. The Hanafi school distinguishes between Fard (established by definitive evidence from Al-Al-Quran) and Wajib (established by strong but secondary evidence), while the other three schools generally treat Fard and Wajib as synonymous. This distinction has practical implications: in the Hanafi school, missing a Wajib can be compensated with Dam, while missing a Fard invalidates the act entirely.
