Alhamdulillah I don’t think the Kabaah leaves anyone the same after the first encounter.
My immediate feelings after seeing the Kabaah were an infusion of love, faith and reverence for Allah. Then I thought, how wonderful it would feel to actually see Allah AlMighty, the Supremely Magnificent, the Lord of Kaabah Himself.
The House of Allah, the Kaabah, from which shone the light of Islam became the best place of worship.
Alhamdulillah this year when I came to Makkah, it felt like a long awaited and well deserved home-coming to my Creator.
(a) Praying Salah here, at the very spot where Jibreel (as) first taught the Prophet Muhammed saws how to pray
(b) Reading the Quran, at the very spot where the Quran was first revealed,
(c) retracing the footsteps of thousands of Prophets during Tawwaf and Saii was Alhamdulillah an enriching and uplifting experience.
It felt so fortunate, to be part of a holy legacy, much bigger than myself.
Alhamdulillah I was surreal saying each Beautiful Name of Allah in Duaa while gazing at the Kabaah.
In the chaos of our lives, faith becomes a distant and abstract concept but here at the House of Allah, when all responsibilities and distractions were set aside, and I tapped into the spiritual epicentre of my soul, Allah felt so close. His all-transcending, omnipotently sovereignity, His compassionate presence, His peaceful goodness and blessings felt so manifest.
I couldn't help but think, how wonderful it would feel to see the Ultimate Glory of Allah's Face, meet Him with all His Noor and Jaamal, without any hijab. Today, I just needed an Umrah visa to see the Kaabah, what can I do I can see the Face of the Lord of Kaabah, on the Last Day.
ππThe ultimate success that will never fade or be in vain is when a person is able to achieve Allah’s Approval and gaze upon His Countenance on the Last Day.
ππAllah will give the privilege and honour of meeting His acquaintance and bestowing the pleasure and delight of seeing His countenance to only those with whom He is well Pleased.
ππTo see Allah’s Face, we need to complete all our responsibilities with utmost sincerity for Him.
ππTry to imagine that we can see Him just as He Sees us every moment of every day. anyone who lives with this condition of ehsaan will be rewarded with Seeing Allah’s countenance on the Last Day
ππSalah, fasting, sacrifice, any form of remembrance and duaa, learning knowledge, meeting with family... any good deed imaginable, just for the sake of seeing Allah’s Face.
ππ Focus our thought process entirely onto Allah. Start this as an exercise first in Salah then transfer this habit to every activity.
ππAny Salah that is offered with total focus and humility and love and respect towards Allah, will be rewarded with total forgiveness of sins.
ππAny fast kept for the sake of Allah’s Face is rewarded with Jannah.
ππAny group of people who gather together to remember Allah for the sake of seeing His Face, Allah not only forgives their sins but also converts their sins into good deeds.
ππLearning knowledge for the sake of seeing Allah’s Face (allowing the knowledge to inspire
oneself to come closer to Allah in consciousness and in actions) should be our highest intention. Learning knowledge for the sake of this world alone will deprive one from even the scent of Jannah.
ππO Allah give us the grace and strength to seek Your Face behind everything we do aameen
