🔖A couple of beautiful and motivational reminders🔖 🌀For those who are not able to do Hajj this year, reflect on the beautiful words of Imaam Rajab (Raheemahullaah) who said: _*"Whoever is not able to stop at 'Arafah, then stop at the limits Allaah has set.*_ _*Whoever is not able to spend the night at muzdalifah, let him spend the night in obedience to Allaah to come close and attain nearness to Him.*_ _*Whoever is not able to slaughter at Mina, then let him slaughter his desires so by it he can reach his objective.*_ _*Whoever was not able to reach the house because it is far, then proceed towards the Lord of the Ka'bah, for He is closer to him than his jugular vein."*_ [Lataa'if al-Ma'aarij, p.g. 6] 🌀Know that: _*Allaah's Divine descent is in the last third of the night (every night), except for on the day of 'Arafah.*_ _*On the evening of the day of 'Arafah, Allaah descends to the lowermost heaven in a way that befits Him, most High & Praised is He.*_ _*The early Muslims used to save their needs and requests until the duaa of the day of 'Arafah, as innumerable requests and hopes and yearning and earnest prayers are answered on the Day of 'Arafah.*_ _*In Ramadaan, we might miss Laylatul Qadr, for we don't know when it is. In Dhu'l Hijjah, Allaah informs us of the Day of 'Arafah - will we neglect it?*_ 🍀One of the righteous people has said: _*“I swear by Allaah, I did not make a du'aa on the day of 'Arafah, except that I saw it (the answer to the du'aa) as clear as day break, before the passing of a year.”*_ 🍀 So do good to yourself and do not forget the Muslim Ummah in your du'aa.
