Sheikh Abdulrahman bin Abdulaziz Al-Sudais, president of the general presidency, stated that the project, named after King Salman, seeks to emphasize Islam’s core values of religious tolerance, moderation, and peace.
All praises due to Allah, the most wise, the most aware, the most knowledgeable and the most capable. Allah, the Exalted stated, He probably covers the light of the day with the darkness of the night and has subjected the sun, the moon and the stars to His command.
To Him alone belong all creation and command. Blessed is Allah, the Lord of all creation. Allah, the Exalted further stated, That is Allah, your Lord, none has the right. Therefore, to worship him alone, he is in complete control of all affairs.
He sent down the Qur ‘an as an act of mercy to his creation, and in order to rectify the ways, Allah stated, this is a book whose eyes have been perfected, then further clarified by the one who is most wise and the most aware.
Indeed, this Qur ‘an guides to what is most upright and gives glad tidings to the people of Imaan who perform righteous deeds, that for them alone will be a great reward. I testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah alone, and I further testify that Muhammad is his worshipping servant and messenger.
As an act of kindness to his creation, Allah sent Muhammad ﷺ to them. As a caller to all that is beneficial and causes the mercy of Allah to descend upon them. In support of this, Allah stated-I will record my mercy in the hereafter for those who have taqwa, give zakah and have imaan in our signs. They are those who follow the messenger, the Prophet, whose description they find written in the Torah and the Injil they possess.He instructs them to do what is right, forbids them from doing wrong, permits good lawful things for them, prohibits them from doing wrong. them from all that is detestable and relieves them of the laws they were previously bound by.
Therefore, it is only those who have iman in him, honour him, support him, and follow the light sent down to him who are truly successful. Say, O mankind, I am Allah’s messenger to all of you. To him alone belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth.
None has their right to be worshiped except he who gives life and causes death. Therefore, have iman in Allah and his messenger, the unlettered Prophet who has iman in Allah and his speech, and follow him so that you may be guided.
Thus, may Allah’s salah and salaam be upon him, his family, his companion, and his followers. To proceed, Allah the Exalted stated, O mankind, observe Taqwa of your Lord and fear a day when no parent can avail their child or a child can avail their parent in any way. The promise of Allah is undoubtedly true. Therefore, do not be deceived by the life of this world and do not let shaytan deceive you regarding Allah. Indeed, whoever is from the people of Taqwa is assured of a good ending and certain success in both this life and the hereafter.
In support of this, Allah the Exalted stated, and Allah will deliver those who observe Taqwa to their place of ultimate success. No evil will touch them, nor will they grieve. Allah the Exalted further stated, whoever observes Taqwa of Allah, Allah will make a way out for them from every difficulty and grant them provision from where they never expected
Whoever puts their trust in Allah will find that he is sufficient. Whoever observes Taqwa of Allah, Allah will grant them ease in their affairs. Whoever observes Taqwa of Allah, he will pardon their sins and grant them an immense reward.
One of the obligatory acts of Taqwa is for the servant to single out the Lord in worship alone. This means not directing any act of worship to other than him. They’re absolutely perfect. In support of this, Allah the Exalted stated, the command is only for Allah.
He has commanded you to worship him alone. That is the true upright religion, even though most people are unaware. Allah the Exalted further stated, all mankind worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, so that you may attain Taqwa.
This is the meaning of the testimony of Taqwa, La ilaha illallah, which is the symbol of Islam and the cause of salvation. Allah the Exalted stated, and your deity is one deity. None has the right to be worshiped except him.him, Ar -Rahman, Ar -Rahim. Allah, the Exalted Father stated, He is the one who forms you in the wombs, however He wills. None has the right to be worshipped except Him, the Almighty and the Most Wise.
Alongside the testimony of Tawhid is the testimony of messengership that Muhammad is truly the messenger of Allah. In support of this, Allah, the Exalted, stated, Muhammad is not the father of any of your men.
However, he is the messenger of Allah and the seal of the prophets and Allah is always in complete knowledge of all things. These two testimonies form the first pillar of Islam. The second pillar of Islam is establishing the prayer.
In support of this, Allah said and established the prayer as prescribed for indeed theprayer prevents immorality and wrongdoing. and the remembrance of Allah is greatest. Allah has complete knowledge of all what you do.
The third pillar is giving zakah. As Allah stated, take a portion of the wealth for charity which will cleanse and purify them of their sins and supplicate for them. As indeed, your supplication is a source of mercy and tranquility for them.
The fourth pillar is fasting the month of Ramadan. In support of this the exalted stated, the month of Ramadan is the one in which the Quran was sent down as guidance for mankind and as clear evidences that show the correct path and distinguish between right and wrong.
Therefore, whoever witnesses the month among you must fast it. The fifth and final pillar is to perform Hajj to the sacred house of Allah for those who are able to find the means. In support of this, Allah said, and proclaim Hajj to mankind.
When you do so, they will come to you on foot and every lean camel coming from every distant route. They will come so that they may witness things of benefit to them. In confirmation of this, the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam stated, Islam is to testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah to establish the prayer, give zakah, fast the month of Ramadan and to perform Hajj to the sacred house
If you are able to find the means, Iman is to have Iman in Allah, his angels, his books, his messengers, the final day and to have Iman in Allah’s decree, both the good and the bad of it. Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you can see him and although you cannot see him, he can certainly see you.
O people of Iman, this is the religion and legislation of Allah which he is pleased with for his creation. Through it, he has bestowed his mercy upon them by legislating that which brings them all forms of goodness and benefits whilst averting from them all forms of harm and evil.
For this reason, the following eye was revealed to the Prophet May Allah SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam be upon him on the day of Arafah. Today, I have perfected for you your religion, completed my favour upon you, and I am pleased with Islam as a religion of you.” Allah describes His Prophet, May Allah SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam be upon him with His statement, and we have not sent your Muhammad except as a mercy to the creation.
From these clear principles, their blessed Sharia has come to attain benefits and maximise them whilst preventing harm and minimising them. It has determined that preventing harm takes precedence over attaining benefits.
Additionally, it has come to achieve their highest benefits, even if it means forgoing lesser ones, and to commit the lesser of two evils, to avoid the greater one. When faced with a conflict, the higher benefit is chosen and the lesser harm is preferred.
The Sharia has also emphasised that harm should be eliminated without causing further harm. As in the hadith, there should be neither harm. no inflicting harm in return, hence harm should be avoided as much as possible.
To this end, the Sharia has enjoined everything that leads to growth and a prosperous life, and it has prohibited inflicting harm upon others. It commands justice, virtuous morals, being dutiful to one’s parents, maintaining family ties, truthfulness in speech, and protecting rights by handing it over to the rightful owners.
It also mandates fulfilling trusts, honoring contracts and covenants, and obedience to those in authority. In support of this, Allah the Exalted stated, indeed Allah commands justice, good conduct, and giving to relatives, and forbids immorality, bad conduct, and oppression.
He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded and fulfill the covenant of Allahwhen you have taken it, and do not break offs after the confirmation while you have made Allah a witness over you, indeed Allah knows what you do.
He the absolutely perfect further stated, indeed Allah commands you to render trust to whom they are due, and when you judge between people to judge with justice, excellent is that which Allah instructs you.
Indeed Allah is ever hearing and seeing, all you have iman obey Allah and obey the messenger, and those in authority among you. And if you disagree over anything, refer it to Allah and the messenger.
If you should have iman in Allah and the last day, that is the best way and the best in result. The Sharia has emphasized the obligation of preserving the five necessities which are unanimously agreed upon by all of Allah’s legislations.
The preservation of religion, life, intellect, wealth, and honor. The Sharia considers any violation of these necessities a crime that warrants punishment. Thus, preserving these necessities is from the causes for…
entering paradise and attaining the pleasure of Allah, the immensely merciful, as well as being a cause for stability, happiness, advancement and civilization in this world. Without them, life becomes imbalanced and the violation leads to punishment in the hereafter.
This is why the farewell sermon of the Prophet may Allah and Salaam be upon him during Hajwas, because, indeed, your blood, your wealth and your honor are sacred to you, like the sanctity of this day of yours, in this city of yours, in this month of yours.
Religion is a necessity, as humans cannot do without obedience to the Lord and worshipping Him for which they were created. Allah the Exalted said, and I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship me
He, the absolutely perfect, also said, say, my Lord has commanded justice and that you maintain your spirit. Selves in worship of him at every place of worship and invoke him sincere to him in religion
Just as he originated you you will return and he said and we certainly sent to every nation a messenger saying Worship Allah and avoid tahrut and among them were those whom Allah guided and among them were those upon whom era was Deservedly decreed so proceed through the earth and observe how the end of the deniers was Allah the exalted also said affirming the necessity of preserving life and forbidding forbidding the evil
Forbidding the unjust taking of life and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden Except by right and he also said and do not kill yourselves or One another indeed Allah is to you ever merciful and whoever does that is in aggression and injustice Then we will drive him into a fire and that for Allah is always easy He the absolutely perfect also said affirming the necessity of preserving wealth
All you have all you who have a man do not consume one another’s wealth unjustly But only in law for business by mutual consent Regarding the the necessity of preserving intellect.
He the exalted said all you have Eman indeed intoxicants gambling Sacrificing on stone altars and divining arrows about evil from the work of shaytan So avoid it that you may be successful shaytan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through Intoxicants and gambling and to ever avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer So you will not abstain
The text of the Quran and Sunnah have also prohibited attacking people’s honor a lot and those who harm the men and women of Iman for something other than what they have earned have certainly borne upon themselves a slander and manifest sin.
He the absolutely perfect also said, indeed those who falsely accused, chased and unaware women of Iman are cursed in this world and the hereafter and they will have a great punishment. He the majestic and exalted further stated, or you have Iman, do not let a people ridicule another people.
Perhaps they may be better than them, nor let women ridicule other women. Perhaps they may be better than them, and do not insult one another and do not call each other by offensive nicknames. Wretched is the name of disobedience.
after one’s iman and whoever does not repent then it is those who are the wrongdoers or you have iman avoid much negative assumption indeed some assumption is sin and do not spy or backbite on one another would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead you would detest it and observe taqwa of Allah indeed Allah is ever accepting of repentance and ever merciful that which complements this is that me that means that have the same rulings as the goals that which is necessary to complete a command is itself commanded with and that which is necessary to fulfill an obligation is self obligatory
therefore whatever means lead to the preservation of the objectives of Islam are themselves command commanded with Islam since the objective and necessary benefits cannot be achieved except by causes and paths leading to them their paths and causes follow follow them in their rulings therefore every person of iman must try to protect their five necessities that lead to the well -being of creation the stability of life the spread of security and enable them to achieve their religious and worldly interests one must also cooperate with others in this seeking to draw closer to Allah by doing so and hoping for his reward in the hereafter
every Muslim should prevent wrongdoers from attempting to influence the objective objectives of Islam in protecting these necessities we all have a responsibility towards this each according to their responsibility work and position we must all nurture our souls and in particular the souls of the younger generation to respect these necessities while while it is obligated to protect these five necessities in every place and time the obligation becomes even more emphasized in these noble sites as Allah the exalted states whoever intends to deviate from the truth by doing injustice while within it we will make them taste from a painful torment.
During Hajj there is a manifestation of the rights of worship that are defining marks of Allah’s religion as well sincerity in worshipping Allah. It is not a place for political slogans or partisanship.
It is incumbent upon pilgrims to adhere to the regulations and instructions that ensure the safe and tranquil performance of their rights and defining marks of Hajj. Hajj pilgrims to Allah’s sacred house, you are in Arafah, in a grand position where Allah boasts of you to His angels.
This is an honorable place and a virtuous time where good deeds are multiplied, sins are forgiven and ranks are elevated. Show Allah your adherence to Sunnah, emulate the noble Prophet May Allah Salah and Salaam be upon him, who delivered a sermon at this very sight, then ordered Bilal to call the Adan and give the Iqamah.
The Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam prayed two rakats of Dhuhr, then Bilal gave the Iqamah, and the Prophet May Allah Salah and Salaam be upon him prayed two rakats of Asr, combining and shortening the two prayers.
He then remained on his camel, remembering Allah and supplicating him until the sunset. After that, he went to Muzdalifah, advising his companions to observe tranquility, dignity and gentleness. He prayed three rakats of Maghrib and two rakats of Aisha, combined at Muzdalifah and slept there until he got up to pray Fajr.
He then supplicated until the sky became bright and headed towards Mina, where he threw seven pebbles at Jamrat al -Aqaba, offered his sacrifice, shaved his head, performed tawaf al -ifada around the Kaaba, and then returned to Mina
He remained in Mina during the days of Tashriq, frequently remembering Allah by saying Allahu Akbar, Alhamdulillah, and la ilaha illallah. He stoned the three Jamrat with pebbles every day after zawal and supplicated after stoning the small and middle Jamrat.
He gave concessions for those with valid excuses so that they would not have to spend their nights in Mina. The sunnah of messenger of Allah, may Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam be upon him, is to stay in Mina until the 13th of Dhul Hijjah, and it is preferable to do so.
However, he permitted leaving early on the 12th. When he, may Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam be upon him, completed his hard intent into travel, he performed tawaf around the noble Kaaba. Hachpurgams to Allah, sacred house.
The messenger of Allah, may Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam be upon him, upon him was present in Arafah without fasting to assist him in remembering Allah and supplicating him. He may Allah Salah and Salaam be upon him was present in Arafah remembering Allah and supplicating him.
Therefore emulate him may Allah Salah and Salaam be upon him. As Allah stated call upon your Lord in private and with full humility. He certainly does not love those who violate the bounds of he has set.
Allah also stated call upon Allah with fear and hope. Indeed Allah’s mercy is near to those who have yasan. Supplicate Allah for yourselves, your parents and those related to you. Whoever prays for his brother in his absence, the appointed angels say, Amen.
And may Allah grant you the same. Pray for our brothers and sisters in Palestine who have been afflicted with harm and suffered pain due to their enemies, enemies who spill blood, cause corruption in the land and prevent the provisions they need, such as food, medicine, nourishment and clothing.
Among those who most deserve our supplications are those who perform good deeds and carry our acts of Ihsan, including those who serve their two holy mosques and strive for the comfort of the guests of our Rahman.
Foremost among them is the custodian of the two holy mosques, King Salman ibn Abdul Aziz and his crime prince. O Allah, the ever living, the self -sufficient, sustainer of all, the owner of all majesty and honor, we ask you by your bounty and kindness to guide the custodian of the two holy mosques, King Salman ibn Abdul Aziz and his crime prince, Prince Muhammad ibn Salman, to all that is good.
O Allah, aid and support them. O Allah, reward them with the best of rewards for the great efforts they have made and continue to make for Islam and Muslims. O Allah, magnify and increase their rewards and be pleased with them.
O Allah, accept the Hajj of the Hajj pilgrims, make their affairs easy and return them to the countries safe and sound, return them having forgiving the sins, accept their repentance and fulfill their needs.
O Allah, forgive the Muslim men and women and the men and women of Iman, protect them from all evil, preserve for them their religion, their safety, their lives, their wealth, their minds and their honor.
Grant them all types of benefits and goodness and ward off from them all. All types of evil and misdeeds, our Allah rectify their hearts, grant them safety in their countries, satisfy their hunger, bless them in their provisions, and take care of all of their affairs.
Our Allah rectify their hearts, grant them safety in their countries, satisfy their hunger, bless them in their provisions, and take care of all their affairs. Your Lord, the Lord of all might is absolutely perfect, exalted above every falsehood people may ascribe to Him.
He grants protection to all of His messengers, and all praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of all creation.
