And, may Allah make it an accepted Hajj
for all of us.
The easiest thing for me to do actually
to share
an incident that just happens.
1 of the things that
we're learning in the moment is that when
it comes to the
and the lessons we learned from the prophet,
we don't just have to back project to
the companions of the prophet.
Sometimes you see those living lessons in front
of you. The
people of Gaza have given us that now,
over the last 8 months.
But I just got back. 1 of 1
of the members who is with us, doctor
Ahmed, was saying that,
he had to actually give someone their shahadah
as they breathe their last right now after
they finished their tawaf and qaba.
And he was sharing the story, subhanallah, and
if it was really moving,
the hajji was from Palestine,
and he passed out
right after
still
in his. And,
the the ambulance took an hour to come.
By the time the ambulance came, he had
already passed away.
So the man's last moments
were looking at the Kaaba saying that, after
doctor Ahmed, as he breathed his last.
And we just pray Janaz on him
right now because this happened,
this morning.
If you were to talk to this man
and say to him, you know, hey, The
bus is gonna be 2 hours late.
Hey. You don't have a hotel room for
the next 5 days. Hey. You know, some
of these logistical things that we have to
kinda get used to and adjusted to here
in Hajj,
then maybe we get annoyed.
But someone told you that, by the way,
the angel of death is going to arrive
within 20 minutes.
Logistical announcement.
How would you react?
And just to remind everyone, I know this
is close to Sheikh Jarrah as well. May
Allah have mercy
on Yahshid and accept him as a martyr
and accept all of the and
everyone else on behalf of his brother Yahshid.
This is an exercise of death.
This is an exercise of death. And that's
not to depress you. That's to actually say,
Alhamdulillah, Allah brought you to the best place
to
enact that process so that you can connect
to him and have purpose in your life.
And there is no such thing as injecting
purpose into your life without
understanding the imminence of death. And so
it's something I just heard now, and it's
the first thing that comes to mind within
2 minutes that as you're doing your and
you're thinking logistical, logistical, logistical,
there's a logistical announcement that Medica notes
is on his way to any 1 of
us at any given time, and we don't
know when. So while you're waiting for a
train, or you're waiting for a bus, or
you're waiting for this, or you're waiting for
that,
realize that we are all waiting for something
else, and that that is indeed what should
be
what guides our thoughts, guides our practices
in this blessed moment of Hajj. So may
Allah accept
our and may Allah
grant us as well as shahada.
Grant us the reward of it, and Allah
grant us an accepted Hajj. Ask Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala to bless all of you and
to accept every dua dua'at that you made
in Arafah for yourself and for your family,
for your friends, and for your ummah.
And ask Allah to grant us all the
best of this life and the next to
protect us from the
