Hajj and Umrah

What Prophet Muhammed ﷺ taught us

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us to put our absolute trust in the power of dua+qadr and to never underestimate duas made at Tahajjud.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that before we complain, We should count our blessings and thank Allah ﷻ .

Gratitude is the single most powerful personality trait that can change our duniya, deen and akhira.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that all hardships are blessings in disguise, a means of attaining higher levels of jannah and Allah's unlimited mercy and forgiveness.

Perhaps in the absence of a hardship We would attain the first level of Jannah but our hardships will ensure we are given a Palace of pearl in Jannatul firdous al alaa right beneath Allah's arsh.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that at some point in time everyone is going to leave you except Allah ﷻ.

You will lose loved ones, friendships and during your darkest hours only Allah ﷻ will remain. And that as long as You have Allah in your life nothing can harm you.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that worry doesn't change anything.

The only two things that can bring about real change is patience and prayer.

That Allah's no is a redirection and His delays are not His denials. To never lose hope in Allah's perfect plan for you.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us to be kind, to say a good word or remain silent, that smile is charity, to help our brothers and sisters if We want Allah's help.

To depend on Allah alone. That Allah Alone is sufficient for us and Only HE can grant our requests.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that we are travelers, this is not our final abode.

He taught us to prepare for our grave and for the day of judgment.

He taught us that only our good deeds will accompany us when We die.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us that worry doesn't change anything.

The only two things that can bring about real change is patience and prayer.

That Allah's no is a redirection and His delays are not His denials.

To never lose hope in Allah's perfect plan for you.

☝️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 us to be shy, modest, gentle and kind, but also capable of retribution, standing up against injustice and for justice when Allah's sacred law is broken.

🤲 May we uphold the beautiful Sunnah of our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and may Allah forgive us for our transgressions, for times we have uttered the lip service of loving Rasool Allah ﷺ but failed in action.

Once the Prophet ﷺ went to visit Fatima his daughter and found her at home alone, he asked where Ali was, she told him that they were upset with each other and that Ali has left the house.

The Prophet ﷺ went to look for Ali and found him sleeping in the masjid covered in dust.

The Prophet ﷺ woke him while wiping away the dust saying, qum aba Turab ( “get up the father of dust”) He did not even ask them what they fought about and instead told Ali,

“O Ali come back to your home with me”.

Ali afterwards was proud of this nickname
Even though Fatima and Ali were poor they still had a happy marriage.

The Prophetﷺ would go to visit them and he would hear their laughter from outside.

They had four children, Hasan, Hussayn, Muhsin (who died very shortly after birth) and Umm-Kulthoom.

Sayyidah Khadijah said when she was a young lady,

she was sitting in Makkah with her friends when a man from the People of the Book came to them and said,

'The time for the final Prophet is soon so whoever among you is able to marry him should do so...'

Lady Khadijah said that all her friends told him to go away and they began to tell him off, for they were women of extreme shyness.

She said, 'Everyone told him off except for me...

I stayed quiet and it was at that moment it struck my heart that I was going to be the one who will marry him.' - Life went on,

she forgot about that day, she got married twice, had children, lost both husbands, and then Allah blessed her with the greatest man Allāh ever created, Rasūlullāh. ﷺ

Don't underestimate the mercy of Allāh and what He has destined for you no matter how impossible it may seem.

People talk about love stories and forget that Allah chose for you a spouse before you were even born and made you travel through life just so that one day you could find each other, connect, and fulfil the destiny of Allah.

The Prophet says he saw a vision of Jahannam,

it was full of women. One easy sin that easily takes women to hell is Al-tabarrij. Meaning, nudity or immodesty.

Sometime you deliberately left your hair open, despite knowing Allah says Angels are cursing you until you close it.

Sometimes you wear see-through cloths, you know how offensive that is to Allah, but you choose to ignore.

When you can't get a husband you say Allah has forgotten you.

How can Allah remember you, when you your self also forgot Allah when you were cat walking half naked.

Sister, be careful with how you make use of your beautiful. Beautiful is for you and your husband.

Allah made you beautiful for a reason.

The Prophet (ﷺ) was born in the lap of a woman.

He was delicately wrapped up and nursed by a woman.

The first person to see His beautiful and illuminated smile was a woman.

When His mother passed away in Abwa, He tearfully came back to Makkah with a woman.

When He returned from Hira, the first person who covered Him was a woman and the first person He spoke to was a woman.

A woman was the first to believe in Him.

A woman was the first to pray with Him.

A woman was the first to die for Him.

When He (ﷺ) delivered the Khutba, a woman was the first to build a minbar for Him.

When He left the world, He left resting His head on a woman. His lineage continued through a woman;

and from His final words were, “I give you counsel that you be good to your women.”

So it amazes me how some of us still don’t know the rank of our women.

Brothers and Sisters,

As much as we love our beloved prophet (Prophet Muhammed ﷺ) I know the struggle is not easy,

but we should try as much as possible to follow his teachings & Hadith.

May the Almighty make this duniya easy for us.

Advice to Non-Muslims,

If you want to learn about Islam,

go study Islam,

don't study the Muslim's.

Because we have Muslims who don’t even practice what Prophet Muhammed ﷺ taught us.

But prove they have love for him.

And for some, they say Allah ﷻdid a mistake.

SubhanAllah 💔

A’ishah (radhiAllahu ‘anha) narrated:

“Once, when I saw the Prophet in a good mood,

I said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah! Supplicate to Allah for me!”’

So,

he said:☝️

'O Allah! Forgive ‘A’ishah her past and future sins, what she has hidden, as well as what she has made apparent.’

So,

I began smiling, to the point that my head fell into the lap of the Messenger of Allah (sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) out of joy.

The Messenger of Allah said to me:☝️

'Does my supplication make you happy?’

I replied:

'And how can your supplication not make me happy?’

He then said:

'By Allah, it is the supplication that I make for my Ummah in every prayer.’
ﷺ

imagine someone praying for you infront of Kaba'ah
That's the purest form of love I'd say.
