محمل الحج كان من المظاهر المشهورة عند المسلمين، فقد ظهر في العهد المملوكي للدلالة على الكسوة المعدة للكعبة الشريفة والمصنوعة في مصر، وكان يتم الاحتفال في مصر بخروج المحمل يحضره الأعيان والأمراء والحكام والقاضي، وبعد عودة المحمل من الحج نجد العامة من المسلمين يتبركون بالمحمل، فيحضرون أولادهم ليروا المحمل ويلمسوه حتى يبارك لهم، لأنه في اعتقادهم أن المحمل وضع داخل المسجد الحرام فأرادوا التبرك بمحمل يزور الأماكن المقدسة. ولما كان التبرك محل نظر بين العلماء من حيث حكمه، فكان لزاما العمل على منع المحمل خاصة مع ما يصاحبه من فرق موسيقية كانت تطوف بالحرم وفي أماكن الحج، والتي لا تصح في أوقات العبادة، وهذا كله يعارض ما حذرنا منه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وقد كان عليه السلام حريصا أشد الحرص على حماية جانب التوحيد وسد كل طريق يؤدي إلى الشرك، فعلينا اتباعه صلى الله عليه وسلم.
The Mahmal of the pilgrimage (a strecher with a canopy carried by camels) was very famous among Muslims, as it appeared in the Mamluk era to signify the cover prepared for the Holy Kaaba and made in Egypt, and a celebration used to take place in Egypt with the departure of the Mahmal attended by the dignitaries, princes, rulers and the judge. After the return of the Mahmal from the Hajj , the Muslim public used to take blessings from the Mahmal. Moreover ,they started to bring their children to see and touch the Mahmal for blessing as it had been placed inside the Sacred Mosque and had visited holy places. And since taking blessing could be legal and could be heresy, it has been found that taking blessing of the Mahmal in that way is kind of the heresy blessing that the scholars had warned of, and that it was among the heresies that lead to polytheism, so it was imperative to work to prevent it, especially with the accompanying music bands that were roaming In the Haram and in places of Hajj, which are not accepted in times of worship, and all of this contradicts what the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, warned us of, and he, peace be upon him, was most keen on protecting the aspect of monotheism and blocking every path that leads to polytheism. So we must follow it, may God bless him and grant him peace.
