Hajj: The Journey of Hearts Prayyy
The
man was standing with Rasul Allah – sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam – when
he was thrown from his camel. The camel stomped and the man’s neck was
snapped. Dead.

“Bathe
his body with water and Sidr and bury him with both garments,” said
Allah’s Messenger. “Do not cover his head, nor touch him with Camphor
... for verily he will be returned (to Allah) on the day of resurrection
in the state of Talbiyah! (Labbayk Allahaahumma labbayk)” – Al-Bukhari
and Muslim ‘Amr ibn Al-‘Aas narrates, “When Islam entered my heart, I
went to the Messenger of Allah and said, ‘Give me your hand so that I
may pledge allegiance to you.’ The Prophet spread his hand, but I
withdrew mine. He said, ‘What is wrong ‘Amr?’ I said, ‘I want to make a
condition.’ ‘And what is that?’ he said. I said, ‘That Allah will
forgive me.’ Then the Messenger of Allah said, ‘Did you not know that
Islam wipes out what came before it, and that Hijrah wipes out what came
before it and that Hajj wipes out what came before it!” - Sahih Muslim

The Ultimate Reward
Rasul
Allah – sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - said, “And there is no reward for
an accepted Hajj … except Jannah!” What is the first verse that you
read in Surah Al-Hajj? It does not speak of Arafah, nor does it
pronounce the pillars of Nahr day. It simply says ...

[O
Mankind! Fear your Lord, indeed the eruption of the (final) Hour is a
horrific event. On that day that you shall see it, every nursing mother
will be engrossed away from that (child) she was nursing, and every
pregnant woman will abort her pregnancy, and you will see the people
(appearing) intoxicated, while they are not intoxicated; rather it is
the punishment of Allah, severe.]

Hajj
is not a journey of the body such as one may take to a vacation spot or
tourist attraction. It is a journey of the soul and heart. When one
pays a careful eye to the verses speaking of Hajj, they will find that
verse after verse concludes with a commandment of being conscious of
Allah’s presence, or a reminder of Allah’s bounteous favor upon us, or a
link between Hajj and the final day.

The Destination
Hajj: The Journey of Hearts Febr15In
the not-so-far-away days of old, whenever a journey was to be
undertaken proper provisions had to be prepared. The deserts were long,
hot, and harsh. Unmerciful. There were no gas stations to fill up with
chips and refreshments, or rest stops to slurp water from a fountain. In
fact, there was not a human in sight for miles upon miles of barren
sand dunes. Losing the way meant losing your life. Thus, you had to have
the provision with you before you made the journey. Enough food, enough
water, enough everything to carry you to your destination. From here,
in the verses dealing of Hajj, when everyone shall have to make some
sort of journey to reach the Ka’bah, Allah tuned the attention of His
slaves to another journey, a journey every soul is traveling, whether
they know it or care to just remain heedless. Allah turned their
attention to the journey to the Hereafter, to Paradise or Hell.

[And
take sustenance (with you) for the journey; verily the best sustenance
is Taqwa (piety and righteousness).] – Al Baqarah 2:197

On
the day Buhaym Al-‘Ajlee set out with his companion for Hajj, he looked
toward the endless desert awaiting them both and wept, his chest
soaking from the tears. “This is something,” said Buhaym, “that has made
me understand the most certain journey I must one day take to Allah!”

Hajj – The Journey Of Hearts
The Provider
There
is debate over whether someone who performs Hajj should be called a
Hajji. It is not something found in the Sunnah; rather it has an
interesting backround in our cultural history. In antique days, when
someone decided to perform the journey for Hajj, it was synonymous with
bidding farewell to life on earth. This was due to the treacherous
obstacles of traveling in the desert - trials such as sickness,
starvation, and the struggles of the separate situations. An entire
village might gather to bid those people farewell. When someone would go
through such a remarkable journey and return alive, they would dedicate
their lives to the worship and obedience of Allah. Gone was the
cheating, or the lying, or the missed Salah. He was now a Hajji. Today,
with the Jumbo jets and ocean liners and Mercedes busses, the
facilitation of performing Hajj has taken away the luster of the title
Hajji.

Some
might complain that there are no queen-size mattress beds in Mina, or
that the air conditioning motor is a tad too loud. But dear brothers and
sisters, who is it that provided us with all the blessing that we are
living in? It is the same Allah that has tested us here on the plains of
Arafah. The slave of Allah can only truly understand the favor of Allah
upon him when it is taken away.

[There
is no blame upon you for seeking bounty from your Lord (during Hajj).
But when you depart from Arafat, remember Allah at AlMash’ar AlHaram.
And remember Him as He has guided you, for indeed you were before that
among those astray.]

Alhamdulillaah.
Indeed
the greatest blessing that Allah has favored us with is Islam, and it
alone suffices as favor. Allah knows we are going to get dusty during
Hajj, Allah knows it. So don’t be surprised when that dust blows,
instead turn to Allah and hit back with patience and a whisper of
gratitude to Allah.

[Then let them end their untidiness, fufill their vows, and perform Tawaf around the ancient House.] – Surah Hajj 22/29
Ibn Al-Qayyim wrote a Qasidah about this journey of the hearts, here is only a glimpse of some of the Arabic verses:
[He says, My slaves have come to Me (for Hajj) out of love for Me
And I am merciful to them, bounteous and loving
Glad tidings O participants of that stand (on Arafah)
a moment when Allah forgives all sins and showers His mercy]
Abu
Hurayrah narrates: I heard the Prophet say, “Whoever performs Hajj and
does not commit any Rafath (obscenity) or Fusooq (transgression), he
returns (free from sin) as the day his mother bore him” – Al-Bukhari

Getting The Heart In Shape
Hajj: The Journey of Hearts Hajj16Many
years ago, as the Hujjaj swept through the valley of Muzdalifah, a man
remarked out loud, “My look at the number of Hujjaj!” The wise man
replied, “Nay, the passengers are many, but the Hujjaj are few.” I once
heard the story of a man who was blessed with the opportunity to join
the caravan for Hajj regularly. However, his shortcoming was that he
could never control his anger during the days of Hajj, and would snap
cursing others. Well, one person had an idea for him. His inspiration:
Instead of cursing Muslims during Hajj, write all your bad comments on a
piece of paper - fold it - and then when you get mad at someone, just
hand him the paper. On the top of the tiny envelope write, ‘Do not open
until after Hajj’. The man agreed. As incident after incident assailed
him, the man would simply smile, then frown and hand out the tiny
envelopes to the provoking party. Everything was going smoothly until
the day when he was walking to the Jamarat and someone stomped his toes.
He lost all control. Teeth gritting, he snarled and took out his
briefcase of envelopes and dumped it on that poor guys head.

In
Hajj I have seen people who snatch for patience and the reward of Allah
during those trying moments, like a man pan handles for gold. I asked
myself, what is different from them and those who spend their breath in
criticism and argumentation? It finally dawned that it was not the body
of Zayd or ‘Amr that I was witnessing, but it was the hearts of Zayd and
‘Amr. Some people come to Hajj prepared financially. Others come with a
prepared heart – that is what’s essential. Whether the grindstone
grinds us to dust or polishes us up depends on what we are made of.

Now - How To Get That Heart In Shape For Hajj?
Firstly:
Attend lectures and workshops dealing with Hajj Hajj is one of the
pillars that Islam is built on. When someone intends to perform this
rite it a must upon them that they learn it well. Rasul Allah – sal
Allahu alayhi wa sallam – said, “Seeking knowledge is obligatory on
every Muslim.” Imam Al-Bukhari writes in his Saheeh, ‘Chapter: knowledge
comes before statements and actions.’ He then quoted the verse of
Allah:

[So Know, that there is no deity except Allah and ask forgiveness for your sin.] - Surah Muhammad, 47/19
Secondly: Establish Salah and Perform Qiyaam ul-Layl
When
Rasul Allah – sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam – was preparing his heart for
the mission of conveying this Deen, Allah ordered him to prepare using
Qiyam ul-Layl. Allah ta’ala says:

[O you who wraps himself / Arise (to pray) the night, except for a little] – Surah Muzzammil, 73/1,2
A
student once slept over at Imam Ahmad’s house, rahimahullah. Imam Ahmad
had left a vessel of water for him, and upon arriving at Fajr time,
found the vessel still full of water. He was shocked and remarked, “How
can a person be a Talib Al-‘Ilm (student of Islam) and not stand for
Qiyam ul-Layl!” Some said to Ibn Mas`ood, may Allah be pleased with him,
"We are unable to wake up to perform Qiyam ul-Layl." He told them, "You
are distancing yourselves from it by your sins."

Thirdly: Repentance to Allah and Dua
It
was during the days of Tashreeq when Jirbreel – alayhis salam – came to
Rasul Allah – sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam – with the words of Allah:

[When
the victory of Allah has come and the conquest / And you see the people
entering into the religion of Allah in multitudes / Then exalt Him with
praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him. Indeed, He is ever
Accepting of repentance.] Surah An-Nasr

This was the culmination of 23 years of Da’wah, Jihad, and work; here now was the farewell pilgrimage. What did it end with?
[Then exalt Him with praise of your Lord (Tasbeeh) and ask forgiveness of Him]
Subhaanak Allaahumma wa bihamdika, Allahumma ighfir-lana / Glory be to you O Allah, and may You be praised. O Allah, forgive us!
