| موضوع: HAJJ: Merits and Precepts-Hajj Is One Of the Fundamentals Of Islam-2 السبت أكتوبر 16, 2010 8:39 am | |
| A Very Important Warning : The attainment of all these virtues and blessings is subject to the accomplishment of all the 'Fara'idh'. Wajibat' and Sunna of Hajj Pilgrimage must be abstained from ; otherwise if one is at all relieved of the obligation of Hajj, deprival from its virtues and blessings is however indisputable. Hajj Pilgrims are usually careless in this respect. They do not care to acquire knowledge of dictates about Hajj and visiting sacred places and the religious instructions regarding them.
On reaching the holy place they are put under the charge of inexperienced servants of Mu'allims. Neither they care for the correct fulfillment of Wajibat (obligatory acts) of Hajj nor they are vigilant about refraining from sins during "Ihram.
It may place be noted that after wearing Ihram for Hajj or Umra one comes under certain restrictions imposed by Shariat violation of which is a grievous sin.
Moreover for a sin committed in the Haram of Mecca, the punishment is also extremely severe. After performing Hajj these ignorant people start reckoning that they have returned after being purified from sins and that they have stored plenty of divine rewards for the life hereinafter.
But what happens in fact is that they return with a store of sins due to contravention of Wajibat and Sunnan of Hajj and with a stock of penalties for the omission of Wajibat of Ihram.
Possibility is there of course that all these misdoings are forgiven by Allah out of His endless mercy and for the innumerable blessings of "Haramain Sharifain" but we have no right to be careless about them.
Besides, sin not taken seriously and committed carelessly has less possibility of forgiveness. That is why the 'Ulama' of every age have purposely composed the necessary dictates of Hajj after rendering them easy or the sake of Hajj after rendering them easy for the sake of Hajj pilgrims, only out of their well wishing and sympathy towards them.
If these are kept under continuous study before the start of the journey as well as throughout its duration, if Almighty Allah wills, the Hajj will be accorded approval by Him | |
