Remember Allah during Hajj



 Understanding the Qur'an

Commentator: Maulana Syed Abul Ali Maududi


سورۃ نمبر 2 البقرة

Verse number 200


عَعُوذُ بِاللّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ

In The Name of Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful


Faza qzytm mnasكkm fazkrua God كzكrكm abaءkm zkra fmn and desperate people from the world uma Him yqul Aatina per min per alakrة klaq ۞


Translation:

Then, when you have performed the rites of your Hajj, remember Allah as you used to remember your forefathers, and even more. But there is a great difference between those who remember Allah. There is only one of them who says, "Our Lord, give us everything in this world." Such a person has no share in the Hereafter


Interpretation:

سورة الْبَقَرَة 221

After completing the Hajj, the Arabs used to hold meetings in Mina, in which the people of each tribe proudly narrated the deeds of their forefathers and boasted of their greatness. It is being said that leave these ignorant things, spend the time you used to spend in vain, now spend it in the remembrance of Allah and His remembrance. This dhikr refers to the dhikr of the time of semen.

This might have seemed odd for the people of that time as there was no science to prove it but today, science proves this fact which Quran mentioned 1400 years ago.

Confusing Modesty with Modernization?

Lets imagine to take plants out of sand and fishes out of water to show them our world. Why not? They also have a right to see our world too, live happily and see all the adventures of earth. Will it be possible for any plant to continue living after coming out of  sand  or any fish to see outside world after coming out of water? Literates would say of course not! No life is possible of its start living after coming out of their boundary.  Similarly mine and yours life is also not possible and would become disgusting if we cross our limits set by our creator and the key component of this living is MODESTY. Now a days we are confusing modesty with modernization. modesty should be in our eyes and heart, no matter what is our dressing and appearance while going out from home. these views are very common and end result of such prospective are rape cases sadly. Instead of protesting against rapers, its high time to take step and improve yours and relatives appe...

The Identity in Finger Tips.

Allah says in Quran: Yes, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers. (Quran 75:3-4) In this Ayah, the emphasis on fingerprints has a very special meaning. This is because everyone's fingerprint is unique to himself. Every person who is alive or who has ever lived in this world has a set of unique fingerprints. But the importance of fingerprints was only discovered in the late 19th century. Before then, people regarded fingerprints as ordinary curves without any specific importance or meaning. However in the Quran, Allah points to the fingertips, which did not attract anyone's attention at that time. Now the importance of fingertips (fingerprints) is finally understood in our day.
