00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			Listen to verse number 94 of Surah Al
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			Maidah. Very interesting.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			Oh, you who believe in the condition of
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			Ihram which is a certain condition
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			that those engaging
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			in the pilgrimage need to get into. Allah
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			says in that condition,
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34
			we will test you by
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:37
			some of the hunting animals that will be
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			so close
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			close range of your hands as well as
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			your spears. It will be so easy, so
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			tempting for you to hunt. And we prohibited
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			hunting for you in that condition.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			So Allah says when you're in that condition
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			of Ihram, you're not allowed to hunt.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			Why? Because Allah said so. That's it. You
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			must busy yourself
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			trying to remember Allah and engaging in other
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			acts of worship. It's not all about running
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			behind the hunting animal in that particular condition.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			So Allah says, but
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			in order to test you, who from amongst
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			you really fears Allah or is conscious of
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			Allah or has developed the correct relationship with
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			Allah, He will test you by letting those
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			animals come right close to you. SubhanAllah.
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			And Allah says,
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			in order to know who is conscious of
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			Allah, who fears Allah
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			when no one is watching besides Allah. Amazing.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			So those who stay away, they have the
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			correct relationship with Allah. May Allah grant us
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			that comfort and the goodness.
