Nigeria I only been outraged due to a lot of a lot of Peace and blessings on his last prophet
muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and and all those who follow the path of righteousness until
the last day.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:23
			Hajj
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			should be looked at within the context
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			of Islam as a whole.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:37
			Though I've been asked to speak about hedge,
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:44
			and many if not most of you are contemplating making hedge.
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:53
			It is important that we understand hedge within the context of Islam as a totality.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:01:22
			Because Hajj is not a separate entity from the rest of Islam. It is the fifth of the five pillars of
Islam. Prophet Muhammad, mega peace and blessings be upon him, informed us that Islam was built on
five pillars and Hajj was the fifth which he identified. Now, to understand Hajj
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			within this context,
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:35
			we have to understand fundamentally the the goals of the pillars of Islam because have only one of
five
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:43
			and it will share the same goals as all of the other Pillars of Islam
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			share.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:54
			We know fundamentally that whatever a law has prescribed for us,
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58
			he has not done so out of any need.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			That he has,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			that we can fulfill for him.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:16
			When Allah has prescribed for us, these fillers is prescribed them for us out of a need which we
have for the spirit.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:28
			So this is why it is fundamentally important to understand Hajj within the context of the pillars of
Islam, and the goal. The fundamental goals of these pillars
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:34
			and prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:39
			summed up all of the
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:46
			pillars of Islam the principles of Islam, the pillars of EMA and everything. He summed it up
