Ep. 9 - Amongst the People | His Hajj Story Jul 18, 2021

Show notes

A major theme of the Prophet’s directions on how to perform Hajj was flexibility. He knew that, just as Allah never places a burden upon anyone beyond what they can handle, Hajj was also meant to be something every individual could handle. He reminded his Companions to be flexible and to remember that honoring each other was even more important than the holy pilgrimage itself.

Ep. 8 - The Day of Arafah | His Hajj Story Jul 17, 2021

Show notes

On the most blessed day of all in the Sight of Allah, the Prophet (s) did two things: speak to the people and speak to Allah.

Ep. 7 - The Farewell Hajj | His Hajj Story Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

The journey of the Prophet ﷺ began with rejection, as he stood atop a hill in Makkah to declare a message that few accepted. But many years later came a moment of redemption, when a crowd of 144,000 believers joined him in his farewell Hajj. The example he set in his final pilgrimage is one we still follow today.

After the Battle of Hunayn in the 8th year after Hijrah, the Prophet (s) performed his third Umrah.

Ep. 5 - Forever An Ansari | His Hajj Story Jul 14, 2021

Show notes

The opening of Makkah was a momentous event, but it was immediately followed by challenges. After the Battle of Hunayn, whisperings of discontent arose among the Ansar. But in a speech that left everyone present in tears, the Prophet ﷺ reassured the hearts of the people of Madinah, affirmed his abiding love for them, and chose them even over his own homeland.

Ep. 4 - The Day Of The Conquest | His Hajj Story Jul 13, 2021

Show notes

After the Treaty of Hudaybiyah was broken by the Quraysh, the Prophet ﷺ and the Muslims embarked on the long-awaited journey back to their homeland of Makkah.

Ep. 3 - A Dream Before Umrah | His Hajj Story Jul 12, 2021

Show notes

Sometimes a sign can lead to good things that we didn’t expect. For the Prophet ﷺ, the truth of a dream of performing Umrah was assured, but it was not to be fulfilled immediately. Instead, it re-directed to a lasting good: the Treaty of Hudaybiyah.
What did the eventual journey to Umrah and the first homecoming back to Makkah look like for the Messenger ﷺ and his Companions?

Ep. 2 - Falling In Love With Madinah | His Hajj Story Jul 11, 2021

Show notes

Forced out of the only home they knew, the Prophet ﷺ and the Companions missed Makkah dearly.

Ep. 1 - Growing up in Makkah | His Hajj Story Jul 10, 2021

Show notes

Before Islam, the Quraysh knew the Ka’bah was special, but they misused the holy site in pursuit of idolatry. As a result, the Prophet ﷺ avoided the Ka’bah in his early years, wishing to stay away from shirk and obscenity. But that would change once he received revelation. As he learned about what the Ka’bah truly stood for—a symbol of monotheism in a lost world—he began to spend more time there to establish the rituals of Hajj.
