The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that whoever performs Hajj without engaging in sexual relations and obscene speech, or evil acts, he will return home sinless. Sinning also includes doing the things prohibited while being in ihram. If these things are avoided, he returns from Hajj with his sins forgiven, as a baby is born free from sin.Benefits
Although sinning is always prohibited, its prohibition becomes more emphatic during Hajj with respect to its rituals.
Every human being is born free from faults and sins; so, he is not responsible for the sins of others.
