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.
