Ihyaaud Deen An Effort to Revive Deen in Totality
The obligation of Hajj is an obligation of a lifetime as this obligation is only fardh (compulsory) upon an individual – who has the means to fulfil it – once in his life.
Those who are blessed by Allah Ta’ala to undertake this momentous journey will be constantly reminded of Hazrat Ebrahim (alayhis salaam), his wife, Hazrat Haajar (alayhas salaam), and their son, Hazrat Ismail (alayhis salaam).
When one examines the obligation of Hajj, one realizes that nearly every aspect of Hajj has a direct link with Hazrat Ebrahim (alayhis salaam) and his noble family. Hence, it may be aptly said that Hajj is from the legacy of Hazrat Ebrahim (alayhis salaam) and his illustrious family.
If we, the ummah of Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), wish to acquire the true legacy of Hazrat Ebrahim (alayhis salaam) and his illustrious family, then it is not sufficient for us to merely fulfil the rituals of Hajj. Rather, together with that, we will also need to wholeheartedly embrace the spirit of sacrifice which they displayed, as this was the catalyst and the essential element which caused them to gain acceptance in the court of Allah Ta’ala.
