It is said that the pilgrimage title is only used by people wither. No argument is required if after performing the Hajj should be given the title of Hajj / female pilgrim to Mecca. Even sahabah was nothing called Hajj.
History of the pilgrimage began awarding degrees in 654H, at a certain moment in the city of Makkah warring and fighting cause chaos and disrupt security slander Makkah.
Due to the unfavorable conditions, the relationship of Makkah with the outside world cut off, plus the turmoil, the pilgrimage that year can not be carried out at sekalai, even by the locals do not.
A year later after the situation began to improve, the Hajj can be performed.But for those who come from outside the city of Mecca in addition to mentally prepare, they also carry a complete weapon for protection against things that are not desirable. With this perengkapan URLs pilgrims would go to war.
On their return from the pilgrimage, they were greeted with a hero's welcome ceremonies like the greatness of the home from the war. With the festive welcome with drums and flutes, they were hailed as "Ya Hajj, Hajj Yes". Then started from there, every person who was given the title home hajj "pilgrimage".
Indonesia's Hajj degree
In the Dutch colonial era, the colonial government severely restricts the movements of Muslims in preaching, everything related to the spread of religion must first obtain permission from the Dutch government.

The problem is, a lot of leaders who returned home after Hajj brings change.An example is Mohammed Dervish who go to Hajj and when home established Muhammadiyah, Hashim Asyari the hajj and then set Nadhlatul Ulama, Samanhudi who go to Hajj and later founded the Islamic Trade Sarekat, Tjokroaminoto who also founded the pilgrimage and the SI.
Things like this are troubling the Netherlands. Then one of the Dutch efforts to supervise and monitor the activities and movements of these clerics is to require the addition of pilgrims in front of the title name of the person who has performed the pilgrimage and return to their homeland. The provisions set out in the Regulations Governing the Netherlands Government Gazette 1903.Colonial rule also specializes P. Onrust and P. Khayangan in the Thousand Islands so the main gate traffic perhajian in Indonesia.
So thus, the title Haji was first made by the colonial administration degree with the addition of the letter "H" which means the person has been on a pilgrimage to Mecca. As mentioned earlier, many of the figures that make a difference after Hajj, then use H title will make it easier for the colonial government to the people in case of rebellion.
Interestingly, the use of the title now instead be proud. It feels incomplete if not return pilgrimage called "Pak Haji" or "Madam Hajjah". Which changed the meaning of ritual worship to prestige? Ironic ...
