Khan was in Chicago shooting Dhoom 3 and returned to India on Thursday morning. While addressing the press during the music launch of his upcoming film Talaash, the actor said: "I am leaving for Hajj and will be returning in the first week of November.''
According to the TOI report, Khan had recently asked his mother if he could get her a gift and she expressed her desire to perform Hajj.
Khan then promised his mother that he will make the trip to Mecca with her, the report stated.

Hajj, also known as the greater pilgrimage, is an amazing phenomenon which engulfs the hearts and minds of Muslims from all across the globe. It is an event which is indeed spectacular; a mass sea of human will and flesh surging along the path once traversed by Abraham (upon him be peace), the caller to Islamic monotheism. It is a pilgrimage that is centered around the prime maxim of monotheism, every action and ritual maintaining a direct relationship with it.

He may not be perfect but his simian is between him and God. Taking his mother is a noble duty and is more precious than the Hajj itself.
Your mother is your simian, your faith in Allah taking care of her is Islam.
Hope Amir bhai Jan has a blessed journey How dare anyone judge..
You without sin speak or forever keep your mouth shut.
@gp65: Who cares about 60s and 70s? I was talking about this age. And BTW, this article is not about Aamir vs Shahrukh (or any other actor), this article is about Aamir Khan performing a religious duty. My point is, that religion is not taken into consideration when it comes to entertainment and Love. But of course when Muslims from your so-called 'secular country' perform their religious duties you start hating them. I was laughing at this hypocrisy. P.S you don't know how to argue, calm down.
Hajj mubarak to mr.Amir khan Only one question? IF such a big super star like Mr,Dilip kumar was not allowed for Hajj coz of his film industry income then how amir khan can granted for hajj....
@sohaibzeshan: we cannot judge anybody
mashaalh...what a son .. he is fulfilling his mothers wish..aur maa ke pairoan talay jannat hai... Good amir Good.. Hope this wil follow by other Stars spl SRK & Sallu.. they are youth icon this will boost the awareness amount muslim youth ant defnetly they will go towords a right path.. all bless him with more fame & whealth ...ameen
subhan allah
masha allah
I will pray for him this hajj become riddance from vice field and he enters in Islam completly and keep long beard and become example for those who follows them.
I pray for him that this Hajj change his life completly he has got large beard after performing hajj
Mashaullah may Allah guid him on right path And I believe he will and his all friend jazzakallah
The fact that he was 'invited' by Allah swt to Baitullah before many of us shows that he protbably is among those beloved by Allah swt. May Allah accept his and all pilgrims hajj, dua and absolve them of all their worngdoings . Lets hope this doesn't end with Aamir and that many more Muslim actors make the journey.
masha allah
@sohaibzeshan: How are you able to judge that, sitting hundreds of miles away? Only Allah knows what's in your heart. Shame on you!
@indiangirl: looks like u dont have a knowledge of Islam If a car meets an accident, dont blame the car, blame the driver follow islam not its followers islam is the most secular relegion in this world read books and then cooment on islam
@DevilHunterX:
Actually I guess these are his fans over there who must act like an adult and responsible pilgrim.I wonder if all those people will start acting funny and requesting him for a snapshot.....And since Amir Khan has a unique set of played characters and ways to interact with fans,I hope he doesn't use the blessed days and the holy journey to promote his latest movie. During Hajj one needs to be very careful in terms of behaviour and code of conduct.
I would also say that Bollywood's Mahapurush is now finally visiting cities belonging to the Ultimate and Greatest Mahapurush of/for entire humanity.
@sh(india):
Who are you to say that?
may allah bless u your mum and all the hajis with his spritual blessing and guide u during this blessed journey at the most sacred place and accept your haj and honour u AMEEN
@Rabia A: I love you too!
@Raziq:
And All of you silly Muslim makers! He's not a Muslim. Period. Why don't you get it!
@Rani: You said several things which I am not sre how you came to the conclusion:
"Secular & Liberal Indians say these things about their superstars (Yes, those superstars who are the reason why rest of the world knows what is bollywood) just because of religious differences"
Bollywood is a 100 years industry. It is not known to the world only because of the Khans as you imply. In the 60s Raj Kapoor was known in Russia. In the 70s, Amitabh Bachan was known throughout the Arab world and Africa. And ofcourse today Shah Rukh has the same cachet internationally but totally wrong to say that Bolywood's fame is dependent on Khans. One individuals opinion being translated to the entire country is strange. These Khans including Aamir wouldnot have been stars in the first place if the only people to watch their movies had been Muslim. No producer could have taken the risk of alienating 80% of the audience. It is only because Indians go to watch movies and listen to music without paying heed to the religion of the actors that so many Muslim actors have been able to reach the top. While a government can make a tokenminister of minority faith, a 100 crore revenue at box office implies that Indians are voting for these stars with their pocketbook and not paying attention to their religion. Did you consider the fact that maybe the reason this person was cattyabout Aamir is because he maybe a Shah Rukh fan for instance and these 2 stars have a big rivalry going and that the coment is copletely unrelated to religion? In fact while there was thatone comment from an Indian on Aamir (which by the way is NOT religious in nature), there are so many comments from Pakistani Muslims which clearly have a problem with Aamir's religion since essentally they are quesioning whether he is a Muslim at all.So laugh all you want but the joke's on you lady.
Aamir Khan is a legend indeed. That is because he is in secular India and were he in Pakistan then nobody would have known him. That includes Dilip Kumar, SRK, Nargis, Mohd Rafi, Saif Khan and the list is endless. Surprisingly nobody in Pakistan (also the land of pure) talks about big Amitabh Bachchan who is regarded by Guiness Book of Records as the most succesful bollywood star of all time. Is it because he is a kafir?
Salam!
Tariq Jameel's jamat is going to be with him to change his life. So, hope to see some good output, InshAllah! :)
@sohaibzeshan: They are not atheist, but secular. Respect every religion and belief in the world, we are all humans.
If a star who is Hindu can go to temple or for pilgrims then why star whose religion is Islam cannot go for Hajj, which is must to do for them!!!
Aamir is a person with good thought, he has done so many good things for the society in past, by Satyamev Jayate he has changed so many people's life! his good works are maybe rewarded by this, God made him to be close to him !!
AAmir meet u in mecca
@sohaibzeshan:
It seems the only muslims in the world are from Pakistan. Who are you to judge somebody's belief.....
@sohaibzeshan: so according to you only pakistan muslims are true muslims and indian muslims who work for ISI are also true muslims...............GET A LIFE, LOW LIFE.
Aaamir must go to perform the Hajj........................
mashallah
Self righteous and holier than thou former Hindus judging someone's personal faith is the height of hypocrisy. I guess most Pakistanis have never heard of Jihad al Nafs. The most ostentatious Muslims live in the land of the pure and their condescending attitude is nauseating.
One of the above comment made by an Indian "plz dont come back to india"!!
What a shameful Secular India!!
God bless you Khan!
Aamir. i love youuuuuuuuuuu!
This is the problem with the people of Pakistan they think they are the only good muslims, please first find out what does muslim means if you think just doing Namaz and Roza is being a good muslim then may God help you , they are so many people killed in Pakistan in the name of religon everyday you never hear about that during the Ramzan time the prices are the highest where as in Christmas they drop the prices also the corruption bribery what is all that wake up before nothing is left and Amir is lucky that he can take her mother to Hajj may Allah be with them, .
@Truth Detector: OMG that's Hilarious! Secular & Liberal Indians say these things about their superstars (Yes, those superstars who are the reason why rest of the world knows what is bollywood) just because of religious differences. I laughed so hard! But Anyways who cares, May God bless Mr.Khan.
Who are we to judge who is a good muslim or not? Im sure anyones better than those who are peddling religion for monetary gains or those who incite and commit killings in the name of Allah.
after reading pakistanis... I guess everyone is a mullah who can pass the certificate of a good or bad muslim... why don't you people live in peace with yourself ?
Every action should be to please Allah and to get closer to Allah. Its just so unfortunate that terrorists have hijacked our religion and most people in the world are so misguided about our religion.
Islam is not a part time thing, its a way of life. Amir Khan is lucky that he is getting the opportunity to perform Hajj and I pray that he finds the true purpose of life while he is there.
@sohaibzeshan
Yes, They are not Muslims. They are Indians . Only Pakistanis are Muslims on earth.
Reflections of liberal & secular India !!!!
maybe some ummi brother in disguise
religion is a very private matter and most of the people understand this.it is very unfortunate that some people think that they have the right to declare somebody better muslim or lesser muslim.why cant be a person a secular muslim?is it a crime to give respect other religions in islam.if it is really a crime according to islam then i am sorry but i dont respect such islam.
Good hope other Khans will also think about it. This a mandatory part of Islam to perform it at least once in a life !
I dont know whether he is good muslim or not but certainly he is a good human being than most of these intolerant maulanas & mullas who think they are the holiest in the world
Mashallah....Keep it up
Reflections of liberal & secular India !!!!
congratulation...may allah bless u and accept your hajj
plz dont come back to india
I know he might not seem like such a great muslim...but we shouldnt say bad tyhings about him..bit iA we sghould pray hajj goes well for the both of them, and that they increase in faith. Ameen.
Please don,t compare his profession to his religion. Both have different identities and will be treated separately.
His Ima'an and the authenticity of his faith is between him and his God, nobody is to judge the actuality of it. We need to see ourselves first and see how good of Muslims we are before we point fingers at him. Many congratulations to him and his mother though.
@sohaibzeshan: Even so, he is taking his mother. For all we know, that deed itself can be enough for him. Only God almighty knows. May his mother and Khan have a blessed Hajj and a start for becoming a better muslim.
He's in Dhoom 3?! I guess I finally will watch a Dhoom film
What a great mom and son......may ALLAH (SWT) accept your Hajj....ameen summah ameen
Congratulations to Haji Aamir Khan.
May Allah guide him to the right path
Mashallah
I didn't know any of the khans were Muslims in Bollywood.
mashaAllah
