Mirza Yawar Baig – Lessons from Hajj The Muslim is the one who responds to Allahs callsubmit

00:00:00 --> 00:00:05

			And then I'm very low salatu salam ala shuffelin below it he was heavy human well, about
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:10

			my brother's the I want to remind myself I knew
		

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

			that
		

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

			the Hajj
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:20

			is the epitome of Islam.
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

			It is it is the most powerful symbol of Islam.
		

00:00:26 --> 00:00:32

			Because Islam means a Muslim is the one who submits Islam is the meaning of submission
		

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

			and submission is to respond.
		

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

			That's gonna tell us a bit about Ibrahim alayhis salam
		

00:00:41 --> 00:00:46

			is called Allahu Rabu Muslim, Kala Aslam to the rebel Alameen.
		

00:00:48 --> 00:00:48

			Allah said
		

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

			when his Rob said to Him,
		

00:00:54 --> 00:00:57

			submit, he said I submit to Rabbil Alameen.
		

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

			So, the essence of Islam is submission.
		

00:01:04 --> 00:01:09

			The essence of Islam is to respond to the call of Allah subhanaw taala. And that is what the *
does.
		

00:01:11 --> 00:01:18

			And the caller was Renata has given for Hajj. The * responds and says love bake Allah Humala
bulk.
		

00:01:19 --> 00:01:39

			He says, Oh Allah, I am here. I am present Oh by Allah, I am present lebryk Allah Sharika kala bake,
I am present, there is no one worthy of worship except to there is no partner, you have no partners.
I am present in Alhambra or near Metallica, we're
		

00:01:40 --> 00:01:47

			all praise and thanks to you, and all blessing and glory and majesty to you and all sovereignty is
yours,
		

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

			Shadi Kolak, and there is no
		

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

			part in your,
		

00:01:57 --> 00:02:02

			in your, in your in your being worthy of worship and in your sovereignty and in your power and
glory.
		

00:02:03 --> 00:02:04

			So
		

00:02:05 --> 00:02:25

			this is the response to the hedge that your response. Ibrahim Ali Salam responded when I was one of
the told him to construct his house, he constructed the house. And Allah subhanaw taala, then made
that the symbol of Ibrahim alayhis salam, and the symbol of Islam itself. So the Muslim is the one
who responds.
		

00:02:27 --> 00:02:36

			The most typical and simple response of the Muslim on a daily basis five times a day is the response
of the Muslim to the other.
		

00:02:37 --> 00:02:45

			And therefore, it's not just a matter of saying, You celebrate when you go for Hajj, what do you do?
And the machine is calling higher Asara here, and
		

00:02:46 --> 00:03:11

			I was saying yesterday in the DUA, that somebody in Australia was there recently, and somebody was
telling me about the time they used to live in some Muslim country. And they said how wonderful it
was, and we used to hear the Zonda. Salatin failure as an we hear almost for 20 minutes, from all
the massages around we hear the sound of yoga. So I said mashallah, very nice. And then after that,
what do you do?
		

00:03:15 --> 00:03:19

			That is a question, what is the good of listening to the other for 20 minutes after that you go to
sleep.
		

00:03:20 --> 00:03:33

			Or even maybe you don't go to sleep, maybe you pray Fudger in your house, you still don't go to the
budget. The purpose of the Asana is not to wake you up to pray father in the house, the purpose of
the Asana is to wake you up to go to the masjid supervisor.
		

00:03:34 --> 00:04:06

			So the question is, are we responding to the call of Allah subhanaw taala This is the most simple,
most basic of the cost and then of course, there is the call of Allah subhanaw taala to obey Him, in
the whole of our lives, everything that we do, all that we say all that we do, how can we be aware
of Allah subhanho To Allah Jalla Jalla Lu, of what he wishes and how can we be aware of our DIA and
the near of the Muslim is to please Allah, there is no other near and that's why you
		

00:04:07 --> 00:04:16

			know, we have to learn in his book, Reza salah, in in the introduction chapter, he opens it by
saying, describing what is near
		

00:04:17 --> 00:04:28

			and he said Alizarin, near fearfully a man of equally acquired of equal Johann Alberto to a coffee,
he said, The is half the awareness of the near
		

00:04:29 --> 00:04:40

			the awareness of why you are doing something the awareness of intention, in everything we say, in
everything we do, and all the conditions that we find ourselves in life frequently.
		

00:04:41 --> 00:04:59

			Albear is that well coffee, whether some whether any of these are visible and open and allowed or
whether they are hidden. So condition of the art, whatever is happening there. Are we aware of Allah
subhanaw taala and what pleases Allah and we're in our business, in our families and so on and so
forth.
		

00:05:00 --> 00:05:35

			All that we say all that we do every single thing I imagine if somebody I ask Allah subhanaw taala
to enable all of us to live our lives on this way, but if somebody can live his life with this
awareness, that is Allah subhanaw taala please with me or not, and he carries this awareness in
every single thing he does. Now imagine what kind of a beautiful life the person will have, you will
have a life which is full of baraka and full of blessing because he will never do anything will
disobey Allah subhanaw taala and he will have a life which has the which has the help of Allah
subhanaw taala with him Inshallah, because of the same thing because he's doing it with the
		

00:05:35 --> 00:05:53

			intention to please Allah. So therefore the help of ALLAH has to come. And obviously this Nia also
prevents the person from doing anything which is wrong because you can't say I'm doing this to
please Allah and you are open to doing something which is Hara. You can do can be going to a bank to
to borrow money on interest, and you say I'm doing it to please Allah No.
		

00:05:55 --> 00:06:05

			So the just the awareness of the NEA itself is protection from sin. This is the beauty of Islam.
That is why in the Malama, Lavinia
		

00:06:07 --> 00:06:28

			The deed is dependent on the intention whatever is the reward for the deed is dependent on intention
because if the intention is clear, that obviously, a person cannot be doing something bad with a
good intention, it's a oxymoronic thing, it's obviously not possible, so to have a clear and good
intention, and then for the Muslims, there is only one intention, does it please Allah subhanaw
taala.
		

00:06:29 --> 00:06:39

			And that's why it's very important for us to keep this in mind that Islam means to respond. Islam
means to submit and the Hajj is a symbol of this ambition.
		

00:06:41 --> 00:06:44

			And that is not only for restricted to
		

00:06:45 --> 00:06:47

			to Arafat and to the
		

00:06:48 --> 00:07:08

			monastic of Hajj, but it is to be carried forward for our all our lives. Ask Allah subhanaw taala to
enable us to live with this awareness and to die with this awareness and to bless us with this
awareness that we only need to please Him Gela general who was some of the hara Anna Vil, Karim,
