Call from ALLAH to perform Umrah or Hajj
Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,
As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:
ASSALAMO ALAIKUM... dear brother i have a question that often we hear people say jab ALLAH ka bulawa aye tab hi umrah naseeb hota hai.. can you please clarify it more that how much right is that? Is it correct to say like this and not bay adbi?
(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)
Answer:
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
The fact is that the invitation from Allah swt has to come for His slave to perform the pilgrimage. Without that it is absolutely not possible. Having said that the invitation does not come by card etc.. One has to yet make duaa and intention and strive to make it happen. If Allah swt wills then He will accept your striving and make the pilgrimage possible. There is no bey adabi in saying what you stated.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
