dying women and children of gaza scream "where are the arabs" sunnis, muslim. Well, as every money loving prostitute, they are now with the best paying clients, the zionist and the west.

do the hypocrites think that the wrath of Allah will be less over them than it is being over the palestinians. Do the hypocrites have a deal with Allah that allows them prostirution with the west. They will not be left in their enjoiment forever. Same to the acursed so called Jews.

 47:25Indeed, those who relapse ˹into disbelief˺ after ˹true˺ guidance has become clear to them, ˹it is˺ Satan ˹that˺ has tempted them, luring them with false hopes.
47:28This is because they follow whatever displeases Allah and hate whatever pleases Him, so He has rendered their deeds void.

It is the time when all except a few are unbelievers. Muslim and Jew are not diferent.
The dirt called cristians has nothing to do with God. They follow what the demons inspired Paul, not the Gospels of Jesus.

Jew , Muslim, and asociators only differ in the outside, but inside are equaly rotten.

Note: there are no real Jews. they mixed their blood with the gentiles of the world, which they where forbiden to do.Just as the zionist rulers of europe and the world they are more european than jew. But, They are so mad that not even DNA tests have got them out of their delusion.

3:160If Allah helps you, none can defeat you. But if He denies you help, then who else can help you? So in Allah let the believers put their trust.

Questions/Comments on the Quran / HANYF and MILAT ABRAHYM
December 07, 2021, 10:05:00 AM
HANYF and  MILAT ABRAHYM

Hnf: root
Hnyf: adjective
Hnyfa: a Hanyf
Hnfay: noun

The words come from the root Hnf. Verses10:105,106;30:30; 22:30,31; and 98:5 contain part of the idea behind the noun Hnfay, and from that a clearer idea for the adjetive Hnyf. But it is dificult to find a word that enbraces/encircles the whole idea behind it, so it could be said that it is untranslatable.

Also, the other part of the idea behind the word Hnyf is found in Mlt Abrahym, 2:130-135; 3:67,95; 4:125; 6:74-79,161; 16:120-123:
Mll: root
Mlt: femenine noun (hot ashes/dictate/ sketch/creed)
Hot ashes seem to have a deeper meaning, because in the  hot ashes left after a fire, a person could find remains/evidence of what kind of fuel was fueling that fire, or even better, an amber to light his own fire.

Cleaned verses where the word Hnfay appears, and its meaning can be seen.
word by word:
22:30. That. And whoever he honoring [the] prohibitions [of] The God, then he/it [is] better for him near his Lord. And she/it has been allowed for you the cattle, except what He narrating on you. You shall avoid the abomination/filth of the idols, and you shall avoid to speak falsehood.
22:31. ¡Hnfay(monoteism/righteousness/etc.) for God, other than associators with Him. And who he asociating with The God, then [is] as if he has fallen from the heaven, and she/it grabbing him, the bird, or she blowing to him, the wind, to [a] place distant.
98:5. And not He has commanded except that they serve The God, devout/sincere for Him, the judgement/religion/way [that is] Hnfay, and [that] they shall establish the Salat, and they shall give the Zakat. And this [is the] judgement/religion/way,  the straight/constant.

It is imposible to put the white light of God in another language, because there is a lot of meaning lost just by changing the gender of a word which could be giving a metaphorical meaning of a related verse or idea. But God willing with these cleaned verses a believer can perceive some colors of the rainbow, istead of the darkness of the hypocrite sectarians.

May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

SALAT, GLORIFYING, STUDY OF QURAN, LYLT ALQDR
Copy, tranlate, and publish to any language you know, and watever you have access. Expose the hypocrites. They have forgotten even
how to do Salat. Brood of vipers, poisonous spiders, how will they scape from the wrath to come. Warn them perhaps they turnback.

These subjects are adressed together because the hypocrites have made a mess of all the related verses, creating huge contradictions.

Translated word by word using the less posible adition of prepositios, particles, and words. Word order/sequence is kept. And
any addition is between brackets. The / indicates a meaning between the words chosen, or different meanings.

Translated using information from Arabic english dictionary of quranic usage, Qurancorpus.com, grammar that my Lord has
shown me from the Quran itself, and most important of all, praying and being patient for The God to inspire the best meaning. After
years of being patient, when everything is put together, there are no contradictions.

those who dislike the dirty drink of the hipocrytes. They go to great lengths to burry the Quran under their pile of dirt. I am sharing the
clear water.

SALAT

The root of the word Salat literaly means the bones surroundind the root of the tail of an animal, or refers to that part. In the idea
expressed in the Quran it is not translatable, because it is a ritual that only exist in Islam. Moreover, in the literal meaning a sign is
hiding, but only if an animal is very sick the three protuberances of it's Salat could be seen. In this, there is something to meditate
about.
Direction
*2:144. Verily, we see [that] you return/twist your face to the heaven. But, we turning you to [an] direction/Qblt [that] you
approve/like her/it. So turn your face towards The place of postration, The forbidden. And, whatever you have been, turn
your face towards him/it. And certainly, those who heve received the scripture they know that him/it [is] the truth from their Lord.
And not [is] The God negligent of what they do.
Requirements
*4:43 Oh those who have believed, not you shall come near the prayer and you intoxicated, until you shall know what you
speaking, and not ابنج JUNUBA( to the side, unrelated, separated, estranger, distanced, remote), except ىراب ع
'ABaRY(traversing) road/path, until والس تغ ت TaGuTSiLWA( you have washed). if you are ill, or traveling, or one of you has excreted feces, or متس م لLAMaSTuM(you have had sex) with the women, but not you have found water, وامم ي ت ف F-TaYaMMWA (then you shall direct to/heat to), clean soil, then you shall rub in your faces and hands. God is Pardoning, Forgiving.
*5:6. Oh those who have believed, when you come to prayer, والسفٱغ F-AGuSiLWA(then you shall wash) your face, and your
hands to the elbow, and you shall wipe/caress/anoint your heads, and your feet to the ankle, and if you have been بانج JUNUBA( to
the side, unrelated, separated, estranger, distanced), وارهٱط ف FATaHaRWA(then you shall purify). if you are ill, or traveling, or one
of you has excreted feces, or متس م لLAMaSTuM(you have had sex) with the women, but not you have found water, وامم ي ت ف FTaYaMMWA (then you shall direct to/heat to), clean soil, then you shall rub in your faces and hands of it. Does not wants The God
to put over you dificulty. On the contrary, He wants for purifying you, and for making unique/completing His favor over you, perhaps you thanking/being grateful.
Obligatory schedule
*4:103. ...Certainly, the Salat has been over the believers prescribed [at] times determined.
Not for exhibition

*4:142. Verily, The hypocrites, ... When they have risen towards the Salat, they have risen lazily, Showing themselves [to] the men, and not they remember The God except litle.
Moderated voice
*7:205. And remember your lord in your soul suplicating/humbly and fearful, and without raising the voice, in the dawn and the dusk. And do not be of the negligent.
*17:110. Say: «¡Invoke The God or invoke the Compacionate! Whichever you invoke, For to Him the names, the most beautiful. And do not raise in the Salat and do not hide in her/it, and seek between this [a] path.
Appropriate attitude
*4:142. Verily, The hypocrites, they [are] deceiving The God, but He has deceived them. When they have risen towards the Salat, they have risen lazily, Showing themselves [to] the men, and not they remember The God except litle.
*9:54. And what has prevented to them that He had accepted their spending/donations, [is] only that they have not believed in The God and His messenger. And not they come to the Salat except, and them, lazily. And not they spend/donate excep, and them, disgusted/displeased.
*32:16. separated [from] their side where the bed [is], they invoke their Lord in fear and hope. And of what we have provided them they spend.
When to glorify during Salat
*50:40. ... ¡Then, glorify Him concluded the prostration!
*52;48. ¡Be patient for the decision/judgement [of] your Lord, for certainly you are in our sight! And glorify in praise [to] your Lord when you rise/stand up/get up!
Example of those in heaven/garden
10:10 Their invocation in her/it, "glory to you The God, " and their greeting in her/it, "peace," and the last/end of their invocation, "that the praise to God Lord of the ones with knowledge"
Exceptions
*2:239. And if you have feared, then walking or riding. But when you have protected/sheltered, then remember The God because He has taught you what never [for] you possible to know.
*4:43. ... and not بانج JUNUBA( to the side, unrelated, separated, ع ابرى except), remote, distanced, estranger
'AbaRY(traversing/across) road/path,...
*4:101. And when you have traveled in the earth, There is not over you sin if you shorten the Salat, if you have feared that attack you those who have rejected. Verily, the unbelievers have been for you an enemy declared.
*4:103. But, when/if you have annihilated/extirpated the Salat, then remember The God standing, sitting, or over your sides. Then, when you have tranquilized/calmed, then observe/rise [to] the Salat. Certainly, the Salat has been over the believers prescribed [at] times determined.
Process
1. Wash according to what is ordained, and if distant purify 4:43, 5:6.

*11:114. Rise to/establish the Salat [at] two ends/extremes [of] the day, but proximity of the night. Certainly the beauties/pieties remove the bad-deeds/sins. That [is a] reminder for the ones-whoremember/rememberers.

*62:10. Later, when she/it has finished, the Salat, ¡then, you shall disperse in the earth, and long for favor [of] The God. And you
shall remeber The God frequently. Perhaps you prospering/cultivating.

GLORIFYING

The hipocrytes are always saying that the glory is to God (subhana allah) but they rarely glorify Him. Not even in Salat, much less in their daily lives. Instead, they give God's glory to worldly things/beings. The Lord has blinded them completely.
*38:18. We subjected the mountains with him, glorifying in the darkening and the clearing
*41:38 but if they seek to be arrogant; then, those who near your Lord glorify Him in the night and the day, and they not get tire.
Glorifying Is giving the credit/recognition/honor/distingtion/adulation/praise for every hapening to God, to whom it really belongs. Because God's hand is in every happening. There are many verses in Qurán, Psalms, etc. that speak/recognise/honor/praise God's influence in every earthly event, and that can be recited to actually glorify God.

STUDY OF QURAN

*3:113. They have not been [all] equal. Of the family/people [of] the book [there is a] community firm/straight : they read verses/signs [of] The God arrived the night, and they postrating.
*7:204. And when recited the Quran, listen to him/it in silence, perhaps you be shown mercy.
*16:98. When you have recited the Quran, seek refuge in The God from satan the condemned.
*17:79. And of the night stay awake for Him, [will be] booty/extra for you, perhaps He raise you [in] a place exalted.
*20:113. And thus we have descended him/it, a Quran in Arabic. And we have expounded in him/it of the promised. Perhaps they guard themselves, or causes to them an admonition.
*20:114. ¡exalted be The God, the master/king, the truth! And not you hurry in the recitation/Quran before He completes over you His revelation. And say; ¡Lord! ¡increase me [in] knowledge!
*25:64. And those who spend the night for their Lord, humbly and standing.
*39:9. Is [one] who he obedient, arrived the night [he is] humble/postrated, and firm/constant, conscious [of] the last [life], and waiting mercy [from] his Lord? Say; are equal those who know and those who do not know? Only he remember one endowed with nucleus/essence/intelect.
*51:17 It was little of the night what they sleeping.
*51:18. And for the enchantments/deceits/ilusions they asking forgiveness.
*73:1. ¡Oh, the wrapped one!
*73:2. ¡stand the night, except a litle!
*73:3. His/its half, or less than he/it.
*73:4. or add to him/it, and scrutinize the Quran properly!
*73:5. Certainly we will give you a word weighty.
*73:6. Certainly [in the] youth [of] the night, [in] her/it I fortify [the] step, and be attentive/establish what said.
*73:7. Verily for you in the day activity prolonged.
*73:20. Verily, your Lord knows that you stay up near two thirds [of] the night, or his/its half, or his/its third, and a group of those with you. And The God, He measures the night and the day. He has known that never you calculate him/it, so He has turned to you. ¡so you shall recite what easy for you of the Quran! He has known that there will be among you sick, and others traveling through the earth seeking the favor [of] The God, and others fighting in [the] path [of] the God ¡ so, you shall recite what easy of him/it! ¡and youshall establish the Salát! ¡and give the Zakat! And lend [to] The God a loan, a beautiful. And what you send forward for yourselves of good, you will find him/it near The God, him/it is better and magnific [the] reward. ¡And seek forgiveness [of] The God! Verily The God Forgiver, Compassionate.
*75:16. ¡Do not heat/let-loose in him/it your tongue to hurry in him/it.
*75:17. ¡Ciertainly, over us to reunite him/it and his/its reading.
*75:18. And when we have read him/it, then follow his/its reading.
*75:19. Later, verily, on us his/its clarification.

LYLT ALQDR/MBARKT

*2:184. Days counted. But, who be of you sick or on journey, then [same] number of days [in] another. And on those who bearing it, then conpensate [with] feeding a poor person...
*2:185. Month [of] Ramadan [in] which He has descended in him/it the Quran...And for you to complete the number. And so that you magnify The God over what he has guided you. Perhaps you thanking.
*2:187 ...And do not touch them while you [are] dedicated/retreated in the places of postration...
*76:26. ¡And of the night postrate for Him, and glorify for Him a night, a long one!
*44:2. ¡By the book, the clear one!
*44:3. Verily, we have descended him/it in [the] nocturnal (Mbarkt)blessed-one/That-is-a-herd-of-camels/one-that-lies-down-over-it's-chest! ¡certainly we, we have been [the] warners!
*44:4. In her/it He distinguishes/disperses each decree/affair wise.
*44:5. A decree from near Us. ¡ciertainly we, we have been [the] senders!
*44:6. Mercy from your Lord, verily He, He [is] The hearer, The omniscient.
*97:1. Certainly, we have descended him/it in [the] nocturnal (AlQdr)[of] the capacity/measure/limit/value.
*97:2. And what informs you what [the] nocturnal [of] the capacity/measure/limit/value.
*97:3. [the] nocturnal [of] the capacity/measure/limit/value [is the] best of [the] long month.
*97:4. Descend the angels and the Spirit in her/it, with permission of their Lord, with each decree.
*97:5. ¡Peacefulness/peace, she until visible the outflow/gush/dawn! It seems that there is an ordained night of postrating and glorifying, yet it is not related to Salat. It is a diferent ritual, it is a whole night of postrating, and reciting text that exalt the greatness of God. The night seems to be Lylat alqdr/Mbarkt. The related verses seem to indicate that Lylat alqdr is the last of Ramadan, since it is the one that indicates the measure/value/capacity of the month. Also, though sexual relationships are allowed during nights of Ramadan, in the dedicated/retreated night any sexual contact is forbiden 2:187. Moreover, the prohibition of sexual contact when dedicated/retreated gives more weight to the idea that it shall be done at night, since fasting/abstention form it is already ordained during daytime for the entire month.

Mslm: appeased one. Islam: appeasement. Be true to what you claim to be, be in. May your heart be Slym:peaceful. From my part Slam ^lykm: peacefulness on/to you all, for I am one who leans towards Slm:peace.

Pray God for wisdom to approach the flowing water, or you yourself will pollute it with the dirt around it. May God increase us in knowledge and give us wisdom.

Pilgrimage (Hajj) / THE TEMPLE OF GOD BY ITS SHAPE
March 03, 2020, 10:32:23 AM
peace.

The temple of God by its shape
copy and spread the message before the shaitans delete part of it or all.

Shaitan clowns do not stop claiming the nonsense that the temple in Meca is not the temple ordained by God for this generation of souls. Only and ignorant will accept the idea of a change of location of the temple, without creating a division on a community that spreaded from Spain to China, which would be seen tothis day. Not even the few Jews who were save from the destruction, and spreaded all over the world, forgot the site of the previous temple for almost 2000 years, much less a communitty of more than one thousand million muslims in 1400 years. Therefore, laugh at the shaitan clowns. Knowing the shape of the temples inspired by God will afirm your heart against the nonsense of the shaitan clowns.

Ezekiel 40:2 In the visions of  God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south... and, behold, a man, whose appearance was like brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed...and behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits by the cubit and an hand breatdth: so he measured the breadth(width) of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed...42:15-20 Now when he had made and end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect toward the east,and measured it round about...he measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.

By this vision of the prophet Ezekiel we can see a cubic like temple, inside a square.

Apocalipsis/revelation 21:10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God...and he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city...and the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the heigth of it are equal.

Even Zion in heaven is described as a cube.

In conclusion, the only temple existing today in the whole world fulfilling the shape of buildings inspired by, and dedicated to, The One and Only God, is the Kaba in Meca. Shaitans never stop creating confusionm an division, but they only lead further astray the already lost.

9:73 O informer, strive against the rejecters and the hypocrites and be firm against them. Their dwelling is Hell, what a miserable destiny!

Believers be cautious, the situation is worsening for us. Now, the chinese have entered the hunt for us, and are the most aggressive. See what they are doing to the Muslim Uighurs of north China. Believing brothers Kick/wipe out/erradicate those pagan animals out of your country, if you can. The old powers had at least a hypocrite christian foundation, but this are 100% perverted animals, believing only in money and power.

May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

The ink of the scribe is worth more than the blood of the martir. Really?

copy and spread the message before the shaitans delete part of it or all.

This verse helps the hypocrite muslim leaders/scholars/imams to glorify themselves and be praised by their sheepish followers. And also, helps them to stay at home cozy, warm, and with an honored status, the while others give their lives so that they can stay in power. The hypocrites always claim that the nonsense they preach was the word of the prophet. However, the true word the prophet preached was the qura'n, which is the word of God. And, if what the hypocrites claim create contradictions with Qura'n, then it was not from the prophet, for he was not preaching his will but the will of God.

3:194Our Lord, and grant us what You promised us through Your messengers and do not disgrace us on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, You do not fail in [Your] promise."
3:195And their Lord responded to them, "Never will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah , and Allah has with Him the best reward."
9:19 Have you made the watering of the pilgrim and the maintenance of the Restricted Temple the same as one who believes in God and the Last Day and he fights in the cause of God? They are not the same with God. And God does not guide the wicked people.
9:20 Those who believed and emigrated and strived in the cause of God with their money and their lives are in a greater degree with God. These are the winners.
9:88 But the messenger and those who believe with him have strived with their money and their lives. For them will be the good things, and they are the successful ones.


These verses mention the spending of wealth and life(martyrdom) to achieve a greater degree with God, and not ink. Seems that the hypocrite scribes have used their pen to elevate themselves too high. Think about it, if the ink of the scribe is worth more than the blood of the martyr, then what is the value of the blood of the scribe? Nonsense. Martyrdom according to 3:195 guarantees/assures the Garden, so fear not those who persecute us believing brothers, and put your trust in God.

If your leader is/was not in the frontline during the fight/war, then he is a hypocrite. And, the worse hypocrites are those who go to a foreign country during the war, and return only when the war is over to be the praised rulers/leaders.

9:73 O prophet, strive against the rejecters and the hypocrites and be firm against them. Their dwelling is Hell, what a miserable destiny!

Be cautious. May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

Economics Forum / AL-JiZYaT

ALJiZYaT
copy and spread the message before the shaitans delete part of it or all.

Aljzyt is something to be imposed on the unbelievers after a war. However, the word aljzyt is one of the words buried under layers of dirty lies that are very convenient to the hypocrites, lies that almost all of the sects agree upon. Then, what is the real meaning of  aljzyt, and when is right to apply it?

Let see first what the hypocrites say about it.
The next explanation found on Muhamad Assad M. of Quran embraces most of the nonsensical ideas going around in the hypocrite Muslim world:

The term jizyah, rendered by me as "exemption tax", occurs in the Qur'an only once, but its meaning and purpose have been fully explained in many authentic Traditions. It is intimately bound up with the concept of the Islamic state as an ideological organization: and this is a point which must always be borne in mind if the real purport of this tax is to be understood. In the Islamic state, every able-bodied Muslim is obliged to take up arms in jihad (i.e., in a just war in God's cause) whenever the freedom of his faith or the political safety of his community is imperiled: in other words, every able-bodied Muslim is liable to compulsory military service. Since this is, primarily, a religious obligation, non-Muslim citizens, who do not subscribe to the ideology of Islam, cannot in fairness be expected to assume a similar burden. On the other hand, they must be accorded full protection of all their civic rights and of their religious freedom: and it is in order to compensate the Muslim community for this unequal distribution of civic burdens that a special tax is levied on non-Muslim citizens (ahl adh-dhimmah, lit., "covenanted" [or "protected"] people", i.e., non-Muslims whose safety is statutorily assured by the Muslim community). Thus, jizyah is no more and no less than an exemption tax in lieu of military service and in compensation for the "covenant of protection" (dhimmah) accorded to such citizens by the Islamic state. (The term itself is derived from the verb jazd, "he rendered [something] as a satisfaction", or "as a compensation [in lieu of something else]" -cf. Lane II, 422.) No fixed rate has been set either by the Qur'an or by the Prophet for this tax; but from all available Traditions it is evident that it is to be considerably lower than the tax called zakah ("the purifying dues") to which Muslims are liable and which - because it is a specifically Islamic religious duty - is naturally not to be levied on non-Muslims. Only such of the non-Muslim citizens who, if they were Muslims, would be expected to serve in the armed forces of the state are liable to the payment of jizyah, provided that they can easily afford it. Accordingly, all non-Muslim citizens whose personal status or condition would automatically free them from the obligation to render military service are statutorily - that is, on the basis of clear-cut ordinances promulgated by the Prophet - exempted from the payment of jizyah: (a) all women, (b) males who have not yet reached full maturity, (c) old men, (d) all sick or crippled men, (e) priests and monks. All non-Muslim citizens who volunteer for military service are obviously exempted from the payment of jizyah. My rendering of the expression 'an yad (lit., "out of hand") as "with a willing hand", that is, without reluctance, is based on one of several explanations offered by Zamakhshari in his commentary on the above verse. Rashid Rida', taking the word yad in its metaphorical significance of "power" or "ability", relates the phrase can yad to the financial ability of the person liable to the payment of jizyah (see Manar X, 342): an interpretation which is undoubtedly justified in view of the accepted definition of this tax.

So, according to this nonsensical explanation, believers fight the unbelievers only to become their protectors, so that they can enjoy life. And believers will be willing to give their lives to protect the infidels for a few dinars. See how shaitan deludes the mind of the hypocrites.

First, in the judgement/law/dyn of God there is no compulsion in matters of faith, so nobody can be obliged to take up arms in jihad. Believer offer themselves willingly, and those who have to be left behind, stay behind crying for having nothing to give, God says in the Qura'n. Second, an unbeliever can never be part of the believer´s army, for in the Torah just as in Qura'n even those weak of faith are commanded to be left behind.

Believing brothers, let's leave behind all that nonsense of the hypocrites and better look at the truth:

Lit trans. 9:29 you shall fight those who not they believe in The God, and nor in the day the last, and not they forbid what has forbidden The God and His messenger, and not they judging/deeming(ydynwn)  with the true judgement/law(dyn) of  those who have been given the book, until they give/deal with/engage on/ donate/gift(y't.wa)  the requital/compensation/recompense/payment for something done(aljzyt)  willingly, and they subdued-ones(sagrwn).                                

Believing brothers, to have a deeper meaning of the word aljzyt , ask God for understanding, and analyze de root jzy which appears in 53:31, 31:33, 28:25, 20:15, 34:17, 31:33, 20:76, 9:82, 5:95.

In conclusion, aljzyt has nothing to do with the multilayered dirt the hypocrites are preaching. Aljzyt clearly seems to be either a war-debt that has to be imposed on the unbelievers until they pay for all the damages to life and property that resulted from the war they started, or the trial and punishment of death of those who financed and orchestrated the war, or both.

(31:21) and when they are told to follow that which God has bestowed from on high, they answer, "Nay, we shall follow that which we found our forefathers believing in and doing!" Why - [would you follow your forefathers] even if Satan had invited them unto the suffering of the blazing flame?
(37:69) for, behold, they found their forebears on a wrong way, (37:70) and [now] they make haste to follow in their footsteps'. (37:71) Thus, indeed, most of the people of old went astray before them, (37:72) although, verily, We had sent warners unto them: (37:73) and behold what happened in the end to those that had been warned [to no avail]!37:74EXCEPT for God's true servants.


Believing brothers be cautious, May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

Pilgrimage (Hajj) / WHAT MAKAH SHALL BE#2
July 16, 2019, 10:08:07 AM
WHAT MAKAH SHALL BE#2
Copy and spread the message before this shaitans delete again what causes trouble to their master.
•   The only place of pilgrimage for those who submit to God.
22:26 For, when we assigned unto Abraham the site of this Temple, [We said unto him:] "Do not
ascribe divinity to aught beside Me!"  - and: "Purify My Temple for the visiting-ones,   and the standing-ones, and those who will bow down the prostration." 22:27 Hence, proclaim thou unto all people the [duty of] pilgrimage:  they will come unto thee on foot and on every [kind of] fast mount, coming from every far-away point [on earth],

•   Makah shall be a sanctuary to which all persecuted believers can emigrate, and be patient until God gives them strength to return to their land and put their enemies at their feet.
(28:57) Now some say, "If we were to follow the guidance to which thou invitest us, we would be torn away from our very soil!" Why - have We not established for them a sanctuary secure, to which, as a provision from Us, shall be gathered the fruits of all [good] things? But most of them are unaware [of this truth].
28:57 And they said: "If we follow the guidance with you, we will be deposed from our land." Did We not establish for them a safe territory, to which all kinds of fruits are offered, as a provision from Us? Indeed, most of them do not know.

29:67Are they, then, not aware that We have set up a sanctuary secure, the while all around them men are being carried away/kidnaped/ despioled ? Will they, then, [continue to] believe in things false and vain, and thus God's blessings deny?
29:67 Have they not seen that We have established a safe territory, while all around them the people are in constant danger? Would they still believe in falsehood, and reject the blessings of God?

•   A headquarters for an army of believers ready to fight whoever dares to attack a believer's community anywhere in the world.
8:72 Those who have believed and emigrated and strived with their money and lives in the cause of God, and those who have sheltered and supported; these are the allies of one another. And those who believed but did not emigrate, you do not owe them any obligation until they emigrate. Yet, if they ask you for succour against religious persecution, then you must support them, except if it is against a people with whom there is a covenant between you and them. And God is Seer over what you do.
4:75 And how could you refuse to fight  in the cause of God and of the utterly helpless men and women and children who are crying, "O our Sustainer! Lead us forth [to freedom] out of this land whose people are oppressors, and raise for us, out of Thy grace, a protector, and raise for us, out of Thy grace, one who will bring us succour!"
4:85 Whoever rallies to a good cause shall have a share in its blessings; and whoever rallies to an evil cause shall be answerable for his part in it: for, indeed, God watches over everything.
2:191 And slay them wherever you may come upon them, and drive them away from wherever they drove you away – for oppression is even worse than killing.  And fight not against them near the Inviolable House of Worship unless they fight against you there first;  but if they fight against you, slay them: such shall be the recompense of those who deny the truth.

That is what Makah should be, but Makah is now a circus of Arab-Anglo/American madness. Infidels have again turned the House of worship into a cave of thieves, they have corrupted again the Holy city, just like the Jew-Roman did to Jerusalem. Middle East leaders have been and are all dogs of the Anglo/American empire since they orchestrated the fall of the ottoman empire in the beginning of the past century. Read your history. You can connect the dots even in wikipedia. The Anglo/Americans put the Arabs in power, that's why they are so loyal to them. Can't believe it? investigate King Faisal 1, CUP, Pan Arabism, the three pashas,etc. God knows best, and that is why He curses the Arabs in the Qura'n.

29:68 And who could be more wicked than he who attributes his own lying inventions to God, or gives the lie to the truth when it comes unto him? Is not hell the [proper] abode for all who [thus] deny the truth?
29:69 But as for those who strive hard in Our cause - We shall most certainly guide them onto paths that lead unto Us:  for, behold, God is indeed with the doers of good.

Believing brothers be very cautious, for most of these websites seem to be to identify and eliminate true believers. Haven't you seen how most of the serious people disappears, and only the same clowns remain posting.
May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

Pilgrimage (Hajj) / HAJ ACCORDING TO THE QURAN#2
July 16, 2019, 10:01:55 AM
THE PILGRIMAGE (HAJ)#2
Copy and spread the message before this shaitans delete again what causes trouble to their master.

2:197 The pilgrimage shall take place in the well-known months. And whoever undertakes the pilgrimage in those [months] shall, while on pilgrimage, abstain from lewd speech/ sexual intercourse, from all wicked conduct, and from quarrelling; and whatever good you may do, God is aware of it. And make provision for yourselves - but, verily, the best of all provisions is God-consciousness: remain, then, conscious of Me, O you who are endowed with insight!
5:1 O YOU who have attained to faith! Be true to your covenants! Lawful to you is the beast from the cattle, save what is mentioned to you (cattle not sacrificed in a halal way);, save what is mentioned to you; but you are not allowed to hunt while you are in the state of pilgrimage. Behold, God ordains in accordance with His will.
5:2 O you who have attained to faith! Offend not against the symbols set up by God, nor against the sacred month, nor against the garlanded offerings, nor against those who flock to the Inviolable Temple, seeking favour with their Sustainer and His goodly acceptance...
3:97 full of clear messages. [It is] the place whereon Abraham once stood; and whoever enters it is secure. Hence, pilgrimage unto the Temple is a duty owed to God by all people who are able to undertake it. And as for those who deny the truth - verily, God does not stand in need of anything in all the worlds.

*It is said that those months are 10, 11, and the first ten days of month 12. But, why only the first ten days of month twelve, that it is not in the Quran, and it sound like something twisted/invented. Furthermore. The well known months could also mean the sacred months 11, 12, 1, and 7, when fighting is forbidden and it is safer to travel in the land.
* The only land meat allowed during Haj is bovine, ovine, caprino , and camellidus, sacrificed in a halalway. All water meat is allowed, sacrificed in a halal way.
* Al-Haj (Pilgrimage/ ritualized visit) is during the well known months, and it is a duty owed to God at least once in a lifetime, if the believer has the resources, or as many times as wished after the first one, if the believer wills.
* Al-Umrat (the tending/ maintenance/ visit) can be done at any time of the year, and as many times as wished. It carries no restriction if is done outside the Haj months, but if it is performed during the Haj months 2:196 the visitor shall sacrifice an animal or fast 10 days if he/she does not have the resources.
* 5:2 offend not against the sacred month seems to mean that no wickedness is acceptable during the sacred month in which the Haj is being performed. However, seen 5:2 from a different perspective means accepting that the corrupters corrupted the Quran in 2:197 by adding an alif to the word ShHR turning month into months, for reasons that only God knows. Moreover, Believing that ShHR in 2:197 is singular instead of plural will limit Haj to be performed only in the month of Haj. But, this will still mean that a pilgrim has a whole month to perform Haj, and not only the first ten days as corrupters claim.
* Breaking the restrictions nulls Haj (pilgrimage) and turns it into an Umrat (visit)

2:196       وَأَتِمُّواْ  And you shall complete/ perform    ٱلْحَجَّ the pilgrimage/ ritualized visit     وَٱلْعُمْرَةَ  and the tending/ maintenance/ visit    للَّهِ to/for God.     فَإِنْ  But, if    أُحْصِرْتُمْ  you have been prevented/ unable,     فَمَا then what     ٱسْتَيْسَرَ asked easy/ easily obtainable   مِنَ   of   ٱلْهَدْى * offering.  وَلاَ  And  not   تَحْلِقُواْ you shall shave    رُؤُوسَكُمْ  your heads   حَتَّىٰ until    يَبْلُغَ he(it) reaching/ attaining     ٱلْهَدْىُ the offering    مَحِلَّهُ his(its) acceptability/ lawfulness;    فَمَن but, who    كَانَ  be   مِنكُم of you  مَّرِيضاً    sick/ ill,     أَوْ or    بِهِ in him    أَذًى injury/ ailment    مِّن of    رَّأْسِهِ  his scalp,  فَفِدْيَةٌ then ransom/ redemption    مِّن of       صِيَامٍ  fast,   أَوْ or    صَدَقَةٍ  charity,   أَوْ or    نُسُكٍ act of worship,  فَإِذَآ  thus when   أَمِنتُمْ you have become safe/ feel well .   فَمَن Then, who [of]   تَمَتَّعَ  you are enjoying/ benefiting  بِٱلْعُمْرَةِ for/in the tending/ maintenance/ visit إِلَى  on/over   ٱلْحَجِّ the pilgrimage/ ritualized visit   فَمَا   then what ٱسْتَيْسَرَ  asked easy/ easily obtainable      مِنَ  of   ٱلْهَدْىِ * offering.  فَمَن  Then, who      لَّمْ definitely not    يَجِدْ he finds,     فَصِيَامُ then [shall] fast     ثَلاثَةِ   three   أَيَّامٍ days     فِى  in    ٱلْحَجِّ the pilgrimage,     وَ  and   سَبْعَةٍ   seven   إِذَا when     رَجَعْتُمْ you have returned.     تِلْكَ That,  عَشَرَةٌ   ten [days]      كَامِلَةٌ complete.     ذٰلِكَ    This,   لِمَن for whom     لَّمْ  not/ never    يَكُنْ he(it) being     أَهْلُهُ his family     حَاضِرِى  settled/ residing   ٱلْمَسْجِدِ the Masjid (place of prostration/worship)   ٱلْحَرَامِ the forbidden/ sacred.  وَٱتَّقُواْ    And, you shall fear     ٱللَّهَ The God,    وَٱعْلَمُواْ and you shall know    أَنَّ that    ٱللَّهَ The God    شَدِيدُ  severe one [in]  ٱلْعِقَابِ the retribution.         
     
2:196 And, you shall perform the Haj (pilgrimage/ ritualized visit) and the Umrat (tending/ maintenance/ visit) for God, but if you have been prevented/ unable, then whatever easily obtainable of offering. And, you shall not shave your heads until the offering attains its acceptability/ lawfulness; but, who be of you ill, or has an injury on his scalp, then he shall redeem/ ransom himself by fasting, or charity, or act of worship; thus, when you have become safe. Then, who of you are enjoying/ benefiting for the visit over the pilgrimage, then [shall give] whatever easily obtainable of offering; but, whoever does not find, then he shall fast three days in the pilgrimage, and seven when you have returned, that is ten [days] complete. This is for whom his family does not reside at the sacred Masjid. And, you shall fear God, and you shall know that God is severe in retribution.

*The Haj, or the Umrat, whichever a believer wishes to perform, are every year for those who have the resources. As for those who are unable, they are only required to sacrifice an offering they can easily afford, and eat and feed the poor in their hometowns.
*Those living at the Sacred Masjid (which here seems to mean the entire valley of Mecca) seem to be exempted from pilgrimage, because they are the intended beneficiaries of the sacrificed offerings, either by eating their meat, or by wealth generated from the sell of sacrificial livestock. It seems that one purpose of pilgrimage is to sustain the persecuted believers that emigrated to the safe city set up by God 28:57 Now some say, "If we were to follow the guidance to which thou invitest us, we would be torn away from our very soil!" Why - have We not established for them a sanctuary secure, to which, as a provision from Us, shall be gathered the fruits of all things? But most of them are unaware.  And, another one, to fulfill a petition made by P. Abraham: 14:37 "our Sustainer! Behold, I have settled some of my offspring in a valley in which there is no arable land,  close to Thy sanctified Temple, so that, our Sustainer, they might devote themselves to prayer: cause Thou, therefore, people's hearts to incline towards them  and grant them fruitful sustenance, so that they might have cause to be grateful.
*Pilgrims, Men and woman, shall shave their heads after the offering is made lawful, which is after the offering has been eaten by them and the poor people in Mecca, except those with a head illness. For them, ransom by fasting, or charity, or act of worship, when feeling well.
* Whoever does not bring during Haj, or cannot afford/find an offering, shall do fasting. However, if a person has spent all his/her resources, then he/she would be considered poor, and it seems that he/she is eligible to ask for food after they break their fast during the night.

2:198 you will be committing no sin if you seek to obtain any bounty from your Sustainer. And when you have surged/ rushed downward from 'Arafat, remember God at the holy landmark/ place(one of the places of pilgrimage between Arafat and Mina, a plain called Muzdalifa, or an area on the mountain of Quzah at the extreme end of Muzdalifa) , and remember Him as the One who guided you after you had indeed been lost on your way;
* For somebody who runs out of provisions during the pilgrimage, doing business or even working seems to be acceptable.
* All pilgrims are required to enter Mecca through Arafat.
* Tanking God for the guidance received is the next step after the pilgrims surge downward from 'Arafat. And, by the way it is written, it seems that the holy landmark is located right after Arafat, which seems to point to the plain of Muzdalifa.

2:199 and surge onward together with the multitude of all the other people who surge onward, and ask God to forgive you your sins: for, verily, God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.
*After performing what they are commanded, the pilgrims are ready to leave the plain of Muzdalifa, and go into the valley of Mecca for the next rituals.

2:203And bear God in mind during the appointed days; but he who hurries away within two days shall incur no sin, and he who tarries longer shall incur no sin, provided that he is conscious of God. Hence, remain conscious of/ fear God, and know that unto Him you shall be gathered.
* Performing the rituals shall take at least two days from when the pilgrims surge downward in multitudes from 'Arafat. However, as stated in 2:203, the phrase, "provided that the pilgrim fears God," seems to remark that it is preferable to keep the number of days as low as possible. Therefore, the pilgrims have at least two days, if they did not bring an animal with them, to locate an offering, find a place to sacrifice it, and prepare a feast.

22:28   لِّيَشْهَدُواْ  So that they witness  مَنَافِعَ   benefits  لَهُمْ  to them,  وَيَذْكُرُواْ  and  they mention ٱسْمَ  name (of) ٱللَّهِ  the Godفِيۤ    in  أَيَّامٍ  days مَّعْلُومَاتٍ   known/ appointed  عَلَىٰ   over  مَا   what  رَزَقَهُمْ He has provided them  مِّن   of بَهِيمَةِ  beast (of)  ٱلأَنْعَامِ  the cattle.   فَكُلُواْ   Then, they have  eaten   مِنْهَا  of her(it)  وَأَطْعِمُواْ   and they have fed    ٱلْبَآئِسَ   the unfortunate  ٱلْفَقِيرَ the poor.                 

*the next ritual in the pilgrimage is the sacrifice of the animal-s brought as offering, and making a banquet/ feast in which the pilgrims eat and feeds the poor people in Mecca. And thus, "22:28 ...they have eaten and they have fed the unfortunate poor" would be the legalization/ acceptability/ lawfulness of the offering. Then, as stated in 2:196, "...And do not shave your heads until the offering reaches/attains its legalization/ acceptability/ lawfulness ...", only after eating and feeding the sacrificed offering to the poor, the pilgrims can finally shave their heads.  Pilgrims, both men and women, have to shave their head before they can complete the next step on their pilgrimage. There is only one exception for shaving the head, " 2:196... but he from among you who is ill or suffers from an ailment of the head shall redeem himself by fasting, or alms, or [any other] act of worship..." 

22:29   ثُمَّ   Thus,  لْيَقْضُواْ so that they consummate/ carry out تَفَثَهُمْ  their cutting the hair   وَلْيُوفُواْ  and so that they complete/ fulfill/ honour  نُذُورَهُمْ their vow/ pledge/ oath   وَلْيَطَّوَّفُواْ  and so that they (can) appear/ go about/  go arround بِٱلْبَيْتِ  in the house ٱلْعَتِيقِ  the ancient. 
48:27 ...  most certainly shall you enter the Inviolable House of Worship, if God so wills, in full security, with your heads shaved, and modest, without any fear...

* this verses give the clear idea that a pilgrim is not to go around the temple, but, that he has to get into the temple in order to complete his/her Haj.
* Pilgrims are only allowed to get into the sacred temple/ Ka'bah after they have completed the required rituals, and have had their heads shaved. Therefore, getting into the temple seems to be the last ritual of pilgrimage. Then, after that, pilgrims are good to go back home.

2:158 behold, As-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the symbols set up by God; and thus, no wrong does he who, having come to the Temple on pilgrimage or on a pious visit, strides to and fro between these two: for, if one does more good than he is bound to do - behold, God is responsive to gratitude, all-knowing.
*this could be done, if the pilgrim wills to do it, after fulfilling all the Haj rituals.

2:200And when you have performed your acts of worship, bear God in mind as you would bear your own fathers in mind - nay, with a yet keener remembrance! For there are people who [merely] pray, "O our Sustainer! Give us in this world" - and such shall not partake in the blessings of the life to come. (2:201) But there are among them such as pray, "O our Sustainer! Grant us good in this world and good in the life to come, and keep us safe from suffering through the fire": (2:202) it is these that shall have their portion [of happiness] in return for what they have earned. And God is swift in reckoning.

Pilgrimage is something simple, and in which the most Merciful did not put any difficulties. Glory be to God, the Most Merciful, for He is showing the truth to His humble servants, and He is exposing the corrupters.

As you can see believing brothers, in the pilgrimage/ Haj, there is no such thing as spending days in special places, wearing especial clothing, being obliged to be in Mecca ten days in the moth of Haj, sacrificing the animal in a special date, stoning devils, being chased by crazy people on camels, kissing stones, staying in expensive hotels owned by infidel corporation, running between the now flattened Al-Safa and Al-Marwah inside an air conditioned run way, taking the offering meat back home, etc. All those things are inventions of those who have gone far astray from the righteous path. The corrupters would claim that they are doing pilgrimage just the way P. Muhamad did it, but the Quran is evidence against them, just as the Torah was evidence against the Pharisees that claimed to P. Jesus that they were doing things just the way of P. Moses did them. Once people go astray, every generation after them adds layers of dirt on top of the dirt their fathers put on the clean ways of God. Only God can clean the circus the corrupters are doing in Mecca. If those corrupters are not stopped, God knows, maybe in the future pilgrims will be turning around the Kabah on an electric carousel, with casinos around the Sacred House, and tended by pagan hindu inmigrants.

Most verses on this article are from Muhammad Assad's interpretation of Quran. However, some key words, phrases, and full verses, are corrected to their literal meaning, because M. Assad was Sunni, and as Sunni he interpreted the Quran based on the Sunni traditions.


May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.












VERSES RELATED TO HAJ:

2:189 THEY WILL ASK thee about the new moons. Say: "They indicate the periods for [various doings of] mankind, including the pilgrimage." However, piety does not consist in your entering houses from the rear, [as it were,] but truly pious is he who is conscious of God. Hence, enter houses through their doors, and remain conscious of God, so that you might attain to a happy state.
2:196 And, you shall complete/ perform the pilgrimage and the visit for God, but if you have been prevented/ unable, then whatever easily obtainable of offering. And, you shall not shave your heads until the offering attains its acceptability/ lawfulness; but, who be of you ill, or has an injury on his scalp, then he shall redeem/ ransom himself by fasting, or charity, or act of worship; thus, when you have become safe. Then, who of you are enjoying/ benefiting in the visit on the pilgrimage, then [shall give] whatever easily obtainable of offering; but, whoever does not find, then he shall fast three days in the pilgrimage, and seven when you have returned, that is ten [days] complete. This is for whom his family does not reside at the sacred Masjid. And, you shall fear God, and you shall know that God is severe in retribution.
2:197 The pilgrimage shall take place in the months appointed for it. And whoever undertakes the pilgrimage in those [months] shall, while on pilgrimage, abstain from lewd speech, from all wicked conduct, and from quarrelling; and whatever good you may do, God is aware of it. And make provision for yourselves - but, verily, the best of all provisions is God-consciousness: remain, then, conscious of Me, O you who are endowed with insight!
2:198 [However,] you will be committing no sin if [during the pilgrimage] you seek to obtain any bounty from your Sustainer. And when you surge downward in multitudes from 'Arafat,  remember God at the holy place (at the kaba/ or once in the valley of meca), and remember Him as the One who guided you after you had indeed been lost on your way;
2:199 and surge onward together with the multitude of all the other people who surge onward, and ask God to forgive you your sins: for, verily, God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.
2:203And bear God in mind during the appointed days; but he who hurries away within two days shall incur no sin, and he who tarries longer shall incur no sin, provided that he is conscious of God. Hence, remain conscious of God, and know that unto Him you shall be gathered.
2:158 behold, As-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the symbols set up by God; and thus, no wrong does he who, having come to the Temple on pilgrimage or on a pious visit, strides to and fro between these two: for, if one does more good than he is bound to do - behold, God is responsive to gratitude, all-knowing.

3:96 Behold, the first Temple ever set up for mankind was indeed the one at Bakkah: rich in blessing, and a guidance unto all the worlds,
3:97 full of clear messages. [It is] the place whereon Abraham once stood; and whoever enters is secure. Hence, pilgrimage unto the Temple is a duty owed to God by all people who are able to undertake it. And as for those who deny the truth - verily, God does not stand in need of anything in all the worlds.
5:1 O YOU who have attained to faith! Be true to your covenants! Lawful to you is the beast from the cattle, save what is mentioned to you (cattle not sacrificed in a halal way); but you are not allowed to hunt while you are in the state of pilgrimage. Behold, God ordains in accordance with His will.
5:2 O you who have attained to faith! Offend not against the symbols set up by God, nor against the sacred month, nor against the garlanded offerings, nor against those who flock to the Inviolable Temple, seeking favour with their Sustainer and His goodly acceptance; and [only] after your pilgrimage is over are you free to hunt. And never let your hatred of people who would bar you from the Inviolable House of Worship lead you into the sin of aggression: but rather help one another in furthering virtue and God-consciousness, and do not help one another in furthering evil and enmity; and remain conscious of God: for, behold, God is severe in retribution!
5:94 O YOU who have attained to faith! Most certainly God will try you by means of the game which may come within the reach of your hands and your weapons [while you are on pilgrimage], so that God might mark out those who fear Him although He is beyond the reach of human perception. And as for him who, after all this, transgresses the bounds of what is right-grievous suffering awaits him!
5:95 O you who have attained to faith! Kill no game while you are in the state of pilgrimage. And whoever of you kills it intentionally, [shall make] amends in cattle equivalent to what he has killed - with two persons of probity giving their judgment thereon - to be brought as an offering to the Ka'bah; or else he may atone for
his sin by feeding the needy, or by the equivalent thereof in fasting: [this,] in order that he taste the full gravity of his deed, [while] God shall have effaced the past. But whoever does it again, God will inflict His retribution on him: for God is almighty, an avenger of evil.
5:96 Lawful to you is all water-game, and what the sea brings forth, as a provision for you [who are settled] as well as for travellers, although you are forbidden to hunt on land while you are in the state of pilgrimage. And be conscious of God, unto whom you
shall be gathered.
5:97 God has laid down that the Ka'bah, the Inviolable Temple, shall be a symbol for all mankind; and [so, too, is the sacred month [of pilgrimage] and the garlanded offerings [are symbols] meant to make you aware that God is aware of all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth, and that God has full knowledge of everything.
9:19 Do you, perchance, regard the [mere] giving of water to pilgrims and the tending of the Inviolable House of Worship as being equal to [the works of] one who believes in God and the Last Day and strives hard in God's cause? These [things] are not equal in the sight of God. And God does not grace with His guidance people who [deliberately] do wrong.
22:26 And, when we assigned unto Abraham the site of this Temple, [We said unto him:] "Do not ascribe divinity to aught beside Me!" - and: "Purify My Temple for those who will walk around it, and those who will stand before it [in meditation], and those who will bow down and prostrate themselves [in prayer]."
22:27 Hence, [O Muhammad], I proclaim thou unto all people the [duty of] pilgrimage: they will come unto thee on foot and on every [kind of] fast mount, coming from every far-away point [on earth],
22:28 that they might experience much that shall be of benefit to them, and that they might extol the name of God on the days appointed (for sacrifice], over whatever heads of cattle He may have provided for them [to this end]: eat, then, thereof, and feed the unfortunate poor.
22:29 Thereafter let them bring to an end their state of self-denial, and let them fulfill the vows which they [may] have made, and let them walk [once again] around the Most Ancient Temple.
22:30 All this [is ordained by God]; and if one honours God's sacred commandments, it will redound to his own good in his Sustainer's sight. And all [kinds of] cattle have been made lawful to you [for sacrifice and food], save what is mentioned to you [as forbidden]. Shun, then, [all that God has forbidden and, most of all,] the loathsome evil of idolatrous beliefs and practices; and shun every word that is untrue,
22:31 [inclining] towards God, [and] turning away from all that is false, without ascribing divine qualities to aught beside Him: for he who ascribes divinity to aught but God is like one who is hurtling down from the skies whereupon the birds carry him off, or the wind blows him away onto a far-off place.
22:32 This is [to be borne in mind]. And anyone who honours the symbols set up by God [shall know that,] verily, these [symbols derive their value] from the God-consciousness in the [believers'] hearts.
22:33 In that [Godconsciousness] you shall find benefits until a term set [by Him is fulfilled], and [you shall know that] its goal and end is the Most Ancient Temple.
22:34 And [thus it is:] unto every community [that has ever believed in Us] have We appointed [sacrifice as] an act of worship, so that they might extol the name of God over whatever heads of cattle He may have provided for them [to this end]. And [always bear in mind:] your God is the One and Only God: hence, surrender yourselves unto Him.
And give thou the glad tiding [of God's acceptance] unto all who are humble –
22:35 all whose hearts tremble with awe whenever God is mentioned, and all who patiently bear whatever ill befalls them, and all who are constant in prayer and spend on others out of what We provide for them as sustenance.
22:36 And as for the sacrifice of cattle, We have ordained it for you as one of the symbols set up by God, in which there is [much] good for you. Hence, extol the name of God over them when they are lined up [for sacrifice]; and after they have fallen lifeless to the ground, eat of their flesh, and feed the poor who is contented with his lot [and does not beg], as well as him who is forced to beg. It is to this end that We have made them subservient to your needs, so that you might have cause to be grateful.
22:37 [But bear in mind:] never does their flesh reach God, and neither their blood: it is only your God consciousness that reaches Him. It is to this end that We have made them subservient to your needs, so that you might glorify God for all the guidance with which He has graced you. And give thou this glad tiding unto the doers of good:
22:38 Verily, God will ward off [all evil] from those who attain to faith; [and,] verily, God does not love anyone who betrays his trust and is bereft of gratitude.

Pilgrimage (Hajj) / WHAT MAKAH SHALL BE
April 19, 2018, 12:08:06 PM
WHAT MAKAH SHALL BE

?   The only place of pilgrmage for those who submit to God.
22:26 For, when we assigned unto Abraham the site of this Temple, [We said unto him:] "Do not
ascribe divinity to aught beside Me!"  - and: "Purify My Temple for the visiting-ones,   and the standing-ones, and those who will bow down the prostration." 22:27 Hence, proclaim thou unto all people the [duty of] pilgrimage:  they will come unto thee on foot and on every [kind of] fast mount, coming from every far-away point [on earth],


?   Makah shall be a sanctuary to which all persecuted believers can emigrate, and be patient until God gives them strengt to return to their land and put their enemies at their feet.
(28:57) Now some say, "If we were to follow the guidance to which thou invitest us, we would be torn away from our very soil!" Why - have We not established for them a sanctuary secure, to which, as a provision from Us, shall be gathered the fruits of all [good] things? But most of them are unaware [of this truth].
28:57 And they said: ?If we follow the guidance with you, we will be deposed from our land.? Did We not establish for them a safe territory, to which all kinds of fruits are offered, as a provision from Us? Indeed, most of them do not know.


29:67Are they, then, not aware that We have set up a sanctuary secure, the while all around them men are being carried away/kidnaped/ despioled ? Will they, then, [continue to] believe in things false and vain, and thus God's blessings deny?
29:67 Have they not seen that We have established a safe territory, while all around them the people are in constant danger? Would they still believe in falsehood, and reject the blessings of God?


?   A headquarters for an army of believers ready to fight whoever dares to atack a believer's community anywhere in the world.
8:72 Those who have believed and emigrated and strived with their money and lives in the cause of God, and those who have sheltered and supported; these are the allies of one another. And those who believed but did not emigrate, you do not owe them any obligation until they emigrate. Yet, if they ask you for succour against religious persecution, then you must support them, except if it is against a people with whom there is a covenant between you and them. And God is Seer over what you do.
4:75 And how could you refuse to fight  in the cause of God and of the utterly helpless men and women and children who are crying, "O our Sustainer! Lead us forth [to freedom] out of this land whose people are oppressors, and raise for us, out of Thy grace, a protector, and raise for us, out of Thy grace, one who will bring us succour!"
4:85 Whoever rallies to a good cause shall have a share in its blessings; and whoever rallies to an evil cause shall be answerable for his part in it: for, indeed, God watches over everything.
2:191 And slay them wherever you may come upon them, and drive them away from wherever they drove you away ? for oppression is even worse than killing.  And fight not against them near the Inviolable House of Worship unless they fight against you there first;  but if they fight against you, slay them: such shall be the recompense of those who deny the truth.


That is what Makah should be, but Makah is now a circus of Arab-American madness. Infidels have again turnet the House of worship into a cave of tieves, they have corrupted again the Holy city, just like the Jew-Roman did to Jerusalem.

29:68 And who could be more wicked than he who attributes his own lying inventions to God, or gives the lie to the truth when it comes unto him? Is not hell the [proper] abode for all who [thus] deny the truth?
29:69 But as for those who strive hard in Our cause - We shall most certainly guide them onto paths that lead unto Us:  for, behold, God is indeed with the doers of good.


May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.

Pilgrimage (Hajj) / HAJ ACORDING TO QURAN
April 19, 2018, 12:01:59 PM
THE PILGRIMAGE (HAJ)
fully clear for those to whom their lord is guiding.

RULES-PURPOSE:

2:197 The pilgrimage shall take place in the well-known months. And whoever undertakes the pilgrimage in those [months] shall, while on pilgrimage, abstain from lewd speech/ sexual intercourse, from all wicked conduct, and from quarrelling; and whatever good you may do, God is aware of it. And make provision for yourselves - but, verily, the best of all provisions is God-consciousness: remain, then, conscious of Me, O you who are endowed with insight!
5:1 O YOU who have attained to faith! Be true to your covenants! Lawful to you is the beast from the cattle, save what is mentioned to you (cattle not sacrificed in a halal way);, save what is mentioned to you; but you are not allowed to hunt while you are in the state of pilgrimage. Behold, God ordains in accordance with His will.
5:2 O you who have attained to faith! Offend not against the symbols set up by God, nor against the sacred month, nor against the garlanded offerings, nor against those who flock to the Inviolable Temple, seeking favour with their Sustainer and His goodly acceptance?

3:97 full of clear messages. [It is] the place whereon Abraham once stood; and whoever enters it is secure. Hence, pilgrimage unto the Temple is a duty owed to God by all people who are able to undertake it. And as for those who deny the truth - verily, God does not stand in need of anything in all the worlds.

*It is said that those months are 10, 11, and the first ten days of month 12. But, why only the first ten days of month twelve, that it is not in the Quran, and it sound like something twisted/invented. Furthermore. The well known months could also mean the sacred months 11, 12, 1, and 7, when fighting is forbidden and it is safer to travel in the land.
* The only land meat allowed during Haj is bovine, ovine, caprino , and camellidus, sacrificed in a halalway. All water meat is allowed, sacrificed in a halal way.
* Al-Haj (Pilgrimage/ ritualized visit) is during the well known months, and it is a duty owed to God at least once in a lifetime, if the believer has the resources, or as many times as wished after the first one, if the believer wills.
* Al-Umrat (the tending/ maintenance/ visit) can be done at any time of the year, and as many times as wished. It carries no restriction if is done outside the Haj months, but if it is performed during the Haj months 2:196 the visitor shall sacrifice an animal or fast 10 days if he/she does not have the resources.
* 5:2 offend not against the sacred month seems to mean that no wickedness is acceptable during the sacred month in which the Haj is being performed. However, seen 5:2 from a different perspective means accepting that the corrupters corrupted the Quran in 2:197 by adding an alif to the word ShHR turning month into months, for reasons that only God knows. Moreover, Believing that ShHR in 2:197 is singular instead of plural will limit Haj to be performed only in the month of Haj. But, this will still mean that a pilgrim has a whole month to perform Haj, and not only the first ten days as corrupters claim.
* Breaking the restrictions nulls Haj (pilgrimage) and turns it into an Umrat (visit)

2:196       وَأَتِمُّواْ  And you shall complete/ perform    ٱلْحَجَّ the pilgrimage/ ritualized visit     وَٱلْعُمْرَةَ  and the tending/ maintenance/ visit    للَّهِ to/for God.     فَإِنْ  But, if    أُحْصِرْتُمْ  you have been prevented/ unable,     فَمَا then what     ٱسْتَيْسَرَ asked easy/ easily obtainable   مِنَ   of   ٱلْهَدْى * offering.  وَلاَ  And  not   تَحْلِقُواْ you shall shave    رُؤُوسَكُمْ  your heads   حَتَّىٰ until    يَبْلُغَ he(it) reaching/ attaining     ٱلْهَدْىُ the offering    مَحِلَّهُ his(its) acceptability/ lawfulness;    فَمَن but, who    كَانَ  be   مِنكُم of you  مَّرِيضاً    sick/ ill,     أَوْ or    بِهِ in him    أَذًى injury/ ailment    مِّن of    رَّأْسِهِ  his scalp,  فَفِدْيَةٌ then ransom/ redemption    مِّن of       صِيَامٍ  fast,   أَوْ or    صَدَقَةٍ  charity,   أَوْ or    نُسُكٍ act of worship,  فَإِذَآ  thus when   أَمِنتُمْ you have become safe/ feel well .   فَمَن Then, who [of]   تَمَتَّعَ  you are enjoying/ benefiting  بِٱلْعُمْرَةِ for/in the tending/ maintenance/ visit إِلَى  on/over   ٱلْحَجِّ the pilgrimage/ ritualized visit   فَمَا   then what ٱسْتَيْسَرَ  asked easy/ easily obtainable      مِنَ  of   ٱلْهَدْىِ * offering.  فَمَن  Then, who      لَّمْ definitely not    يَجِدْ he finds,     فَصِيَامُ then [shall] fast     ثَلاثَةِ   three   أَيَّامٍ days     فِى  in    ٱلْحَجِّ the pilgrimage,     وَ  and   سَبْعَةٍ   seven   إِذَا when     رَجَعْتُمْ you have returned.     تِلْكَ That,  عَشَرَةٌ   ten [days]      كَامِلَةٌ complete.     ذٰلِكَ    This,   لِمَن for whom     لَّمْ  not/ never    يَكُنْ he(it) being     أَهْلُهُ his family     حَاضِرِى  settled/ residing   ٱلْمَسْجِدِ the Masjid (place of prostration/worship)   ٱلْحَرَامِ the forbidden/ sacred.  وَٱتَّقُواْ    And, you shall fear     ٱللَّهَ The God,    وَٱعْلَمُواْ and you shall know    أَنَّ that    ٱللَّهَ The God    شَدِيدُ  severe one [in]  ٱلْعِقَابِ the retribution.         
     
2:196 And, you shall perform the Haj (pilgrimage/ ritualized visit) and the Umrat (tending/ maintenance/ visit) for God, but if you have been prevented/ unable, then whatever easily obtainable of offering. And, you shall not shave your heads until the offering attains its acceptability/ lawfulness; but, who be of you ill, or has an injury on his scalp, then he shall redeem/ ransom himself by fasting, or charity, or act of worship; thus, when you have become safe. Then, who of you are enjoying/ benefiting for the visit over the pilgrimage, then [shall give] whatever easily obtainable of offering; but, whoever does not find, then he shall fast three days in the pilgrimage, and seven when you have returned, that is ten [days] complete. This is for whom his family does not reside at the sacred Masjid. And, you shall fear God, and you shall know that God is severe in retribution.


*The Haj, or the Umrat, whichever a believer wishes to perform, are every year for those who have the resources. As for those who are unable, they are only required to sacrifice an offering they can easily afford, and eat and feed the poor in their hometowns.
*Those living at the Sacred Masjid (which here seems to mean the entire valley of Mecca) seem to be exempted from pilgrimage, because they are the intended beneficiaries of the sacrificed offerings, either by eating their meat, or by wealth generated from the sell of sacrificial livestock. It seems that one purpose of pilgrimage is to sustain the persecuted believers that emigrated to the safe city set up by God 28:57 Now some say, "If we were to follow the guidance to which thou invitest us, we would be torn away from our very soil!" Why - have We not established for them a sanctuary secure, to which, as a provision from Us, shall be gathered the fruits of all things? But most of them are unaware.  And, another one, to fulfill a petition made by P. Abraham: 14:37 "our Sustainer! Behold, I have settled some of my offspring in a valley in which there is no arable land,  close to Thy sanctified Temple, so that, our Sustainer, they might devote themselves to prayer: cause Thou, therefore, people's hearts to incline towards them  and grant them fruitful sustenance, so that they might have cause to be grateful.
*Pilgrims, Men and woman, shall shave their heads after the offering is made lawful, which is after the offering has been eaten by them and the poor people in Mecca, except those with a head illness. For them, ransom by fasting, or charity, or act of worship, when feeling well.
* Whoever does not bring during Haj, or cannot afford/find an offering, shall do fasting. However, if a person has spent all his/her resources, then he/she would be considered poor, and it seems that he/she is eligible to ask for food after they break their fast during the night.

BEGINING:

2:198 you will be committing no sin if you seek to obtain any bounty from your Sustainer. And when you have surged/ rushed downward from 'Arafat, remember God at the holy landmark/ place(one of the places of pilgrimage between Arafat and Mina, a plain called Muzdalifa, or an area on the mountain of Quzah at the extreme end of Muzdalifa) , and remember Him as the One who guided you after you had indeed been lost on your way;
* For somebody who runs out of provisions during the pilgrimage, doing business or even working seems to be acceptable.
* All pilgrims are required to enter Mecca through Arafat.
* Tanking God for the guidance received is the next step after the pilgrims surge downward from 'Arafat. And, by the way it is written, it seems that the holy landmark is located right after Arafat, which seems to point to the plain of Muzdalifa.

2:199 and surge onward together with the multitude of all the other people who surge onward, and ask God to forgive you your sins: for, verily, God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.
*After performing what they are commanded, the pilgrims are ready to leave the plain of Muzdalifa, and go into the valley of Mecca for the next rituals.

2:203And bear God in mind during the appointed days; but he who hurries away within two days shall incur no sin, and he who tarries longer shall incur no sin, provided that he is conscious of God. Hence, remain conscious of/ fear God, and know that unto Him you shall be gathered.
* Performing the rituals shall take at least two days from when the pilgrims surge downward in multitudes from 'Arafat. However, as stated in 2:203, the phrase, ?provided that the pilgrim fears God,? seems to remark that it is preferable to keep the number of days as low as possible. Therefore, the pilgrims have at least two days, if they did not bring an animal with them, to locate an offering, find a place to sacrifice it, and prepare a feast.

22:28   لِّيَشْهَدُواْ  So that they witness  مَنَافِعَ   benefits  لَهُمْ  to them,  وَيَذْكُرُواْ  and  they mention ٱسْمَ  name (of) ٱللَّهِ  the Godفِيۤ    in  أَيَّامٍ  days مَّعْلُومَاتٍ   known/ appointed  عَلَىٰ   over  مَا   what  رَزَقَهُمْ He has provided them  مِّن   of بَهِيمَةِ  beast (of)  ٱلأَنْعَامِ  the cattle.   فَكُلُواْ   Then, they have  eaten   مِنْهَا  of her(it)  وَأَطْعِمُواْ   and they have fed    ٱلْبَآئِسَ   the unfortunate  ٱلْفَقِيرَ the poor.                  

*the next ritual in the pilgrimage is the sacrifice of the animal-s brought as offering, and making a banquet/ feast in which the pilgrims eat and feeds the poor people in Mecca. And thus, ?22:28 ?they have eaten and they have fed the unfortunate poor? would be the legalization/ acceptability/ lawfulness of the offering. Then, as stated in 2:196, ??And do not shave your heads until the offering reaches/attains its legalization/ acceptability/ lawfulness ??, only after eating and feeding the sacrificed offering to the poor, the pilgrims can finally shave their heads.  Pilgrims, both men and women, have to shave their head before they can complete the next step on their pilgrimage. There is only one exception for shaving the head, ? 2:196? but he from among you who is ill or suffers from an ailment of the head shall redeem himself by fasting, or alms, or [any other] act of worship?? 

22:29   ثُمَّ   Thus,  لْيَقْضُواْ so that they consummate/ carry out تَفَثَهُمْ  their cutting the hair   وَلْيُوفُواْ  and so that they complete/ fulfill/ honour  نُذُورَهُمْ their vow/ pledge/ oath   وَلْيَطَّوَّفُواْ  and so that they (can) appear/ go about/  go arround بِٱلْبَيْتِ  in the house ٱلْعَتِيقِ  the ancient. 
48:27 ?  most certainly shall you enter the Inviolable House of Worship, if God so wills, in full security, with your heads shaved, and modest, without any fear?


* this verses give the clear idea that a pilgrim is not to go around the temple, but, that he has to get into the temple in order to complete his/her Haj.
* Pilgrims are only allowed to get into the sacred temple/ Ka'bah after they have completed the required rituals, and have had their heads shaved. Therefore, getting into the temple seems to be the last ritual of pilgrimage. Then, after that, pilgrims are good to go back home.

2:158 behold, As-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the symbols set up by God; and thus, no wrong does he who, having come to the Temple on pilgrimage or on a pious visit, strides to and fro between these two: for, if one does more good than he is bound to do - behold, God is responsive to gratitude, all-knowing.
*this could be done, if the pilgrim wills to do it, after fulfilling all the Haj rituals.

2:200And when you have performed your acts of worship, bear God in mind as you would bear your own fathers in mind - nay, with a yet keener remembrance! For there are people who [merely] pray, "O our Sustainer! Give us in this world" - and such shall not partake in the blessings of the life to come. (2:201) But there are among them such as pray, "O our Sustainer! Grant us good in this world and good in the life to come, and keep us safe from suffering through the fire": (2:202) it is these that shall have their portion [of happiness] in return for what they have earned. And God is swift in reckoning.

Pilgrimage is something simple, and in which the most Merciful did not put any difficulties. Glory be to God, the Most Merciful, for He is showing the truth to His humble servants, and He is exposing the corrupters.

As you can see believing brothers, in the pilgrimage/ Haj, there is no such thing as spending days in special places, wearing especial clothing, being obliged to be in Mecca ten days in the moth of Haj, sacrificing the animal in a special date, stoning devils, being chased by crazy people on camels, kissing stones, staying in expensive hotels owned by infidel corporation, running between the now flattened Al-Safa and Al-Marwah inside an air conditioned run way, taking the offering meat back home, etc. All those things are inventions of those who have gone far astray from the righteous path. The corrupters would claim that they are doing pilgrimage just the way P. Muhamad did it, but the Quran is evidence against them, just as the Torah was evidence against the Pharisees that claimed to P. Jesus that they were doing things just the way of P. Moses did them. Once people go astray, every generation after them adds layers of dirt on top of the dirt their fathers put on the clean ways of God. Only God can clean the circus the corrupters are doing in Mecca. If those corrupters are not stopped, God knows, maybe in the future pilgrims will be turning around the Kabah on an electric carousel.

Most verses on this article are from Muhammad Assad?s interpretation of Quran. However, some key words, phrases, and full verses, are corrected to their literal meaning, because M. Assad was Sunni, and as Sunni he interpreted the Quran based on the Sunni traditions.


May God increase our knowledge and give us wisdom.












VERSES RELATED TO HAJ:

2:189 THEY WILL ASK thee about the new moons. Say: "They indicate the periods for [various doings of] mankind, including the pilgrimage." However, piety does not consist in your entering houses from the rear, [as it were,] but truly pious is he who is conscious of God. Hence, enter houses through their doors, and remain conscious of God, so that you might attain to a happy state.
2:196 And, you shall complete/ perform the pilgrimage and the visit for God, but if you have been prevented/ unable, then whatever easily obtainable of offering. And, you shall not shave your heads until the offering attains its acceptability/ lawfulness; but, who be of you ill, or has an injury on his scalp, then he shall redeem/ ransom himself by fasting, or charity, or act of worship; thus, when you have become safe. Then, who of you are enjoying/ benefiting in the visit on the pilgrimage, then [shall give] whatever easily obtainable of offering; but, whoever does not find, then he shall fast three days in the pilgrimage, and seven when you have returned, that is ten [days] complete. This is for whom his family does not reside at the sacred Masjid. And, you shall fear God, and you shall know that God is severe in retribution.
2:197 The pilgrimage shall take place in the months appointed for it. And whoever undertakes the pilgrimage in those [months] shall, while on pilgrimage, abstain from lewd speech, from all wicked conduct, and from quarrelling; and whatever good you may do, God is aware of it. And make provision for yourselves - but, verily, the best of all provisions is God-consciousness: remain, then, conscious of Me, O you who are endowed with insight!
2:198 [However,] you will be committing no sin if [during the pilgrimage] you seek to obtain any bounty from your Sustainer. And when you surge downward in multitudes from 'Arafat,  remember God at the holy place (at the kaba/ or once in the valley of meca), and remember Him as the One who guided you after you had indeed been lost on your way;
2:199 and surge onward together with the multitude of all the other people who surge onward, and ask God to forgive you your sins: for, verily, God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.
2:203And bear God in mind during the appointed days; but he who hurries away within two days shall incur no sin, and he who tarries longer shall incur no sin, provided that he is conscious of God. Hence, remain conscious of God, and know that unto Him you shall be gathered.
2:158 behold, As-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the symbols set up by God; and thus, no wrong does he who, having come to the Temple on pilgrimage or on a pious visit, strides to and fro between these two: for, if one does more good than he is bound to do - behold, God is responsive to gratitude, all-knowing.

3:96 Behold, the first Temple ever set up for mankind was indeed the one at Bakkah: rich in blessing, and a guidance unto all the worlds,
3:97 full of clear messages. [It is] the place whereon Abraham once stood; and whoever enters is secure. Hence, pilgrimage unto the Temple is a duty owed to God by all people who are able to undertake it. And as for those who deny the truth - verily, God does not stand in need of anything in all the worlds.
5:1 O YOU who have attained to faith! Be true to your covenants! Lawful to you is the beast from the cattle, save what is mentioned to you (cattle not sacrificed in a halal way); but you are not allowed to hunt while you are in the state of pilgrimage. Behold, God ordains in accordance with His will.
5:2 O you who have attained to faith! Offend not against the symbols set up by God, nor against the sacred month, nor against the garlanded offerings, nor against those who flock to the Inviolable Temple, seeking favour with their Sustainer and His goodly acceptance; and [only] after your pilgrimage is over are you free to hunt. And never let your hatred of people who would bar you from the Inviolable House of Worship lead you into the sin of aggression: but rather help one another in furthering virtue and God-consciousness, and do not help one another in furthering evil and enmity; and remain conscious of God: for, behold, God is severe in retribution!
5:94 O YOU who have attained to faith! Most certainly God will try you by means of the game which may come within the reach of your hands and your weapons [while you are on pilgrimage], so that God might mark out those who fear Him although He is beyond the reach of human perception. And as for him who, after all this, transgresses the bounds of what is right-grievous suffering awaits him!
5:95 O you who have attained to faith! Kill no game while you are in the state of pilgrimage. And whoever of you kills it intentionally, [shall make] amends in cattle equivalent to what he has killed - with two persons of probity giving their judgment thereon - to be brought as an offering to the Ka'bah; or else he may atone for
his sin by feeding the needy, or by the equivalent thereof in fasting: [this,] in order that he taste the full gravity of his deed, [while] God shall have effaced the past. But whoever does it again, God will inflict His retribution on him: for God is almighty, an avenger of evil.
5:96 Lawful to you is all water-game, and what the sea brings forth, as a provision for you [who are settled] as well as for travellers, although you are forbidden to hunt on land while you are in the state of pilgrimage. And be conscious of God, unto whom you
shall be gathered.
5:97 God has laid down that the Ka'bah, the Inviolable Temple, shall be a symbol for all mankind; and [so, too, is the sacred month [of pilgrimage] and the garlanded offerings [are symbols] meant to make you aware that God is aware of all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth, and that God has full knowledge of everything.
9:19 Do you, perchance, regard the [mere] giving of water to pilgrims and the tending of the Inviolable House of Worship as being equal to [the works of] one who believes in God and the Last Day and strives hard in God's cause? These [things] are not equal in the sight of God. And God does not grace with His guidance people who [deliberately] do wrong.
22:26 And, when we assigned unto Abraham the site of this Temple, [We said unto him:] "Do not ascribe divinity to aught beside Me!" - and: "Purify My Temple for those who will walk around it, and those who will stand before it [in meditation], and those who will bow down and prostrate themselves [in prayer]."
22:27 Hence, [O Muhammad], I proclaim thou unto all people the [duty of] pilgrimage: they will come unto thee on foot and on every [kind of] fast mount, coming from every far-away point [on earth],
22:28 that they might experience much that shall be of benefit to them, and that they might extol the name of God on the days appointed (for sacrifice], over whatever heads of cattle He may have provided for them [to this end]: eat, then, thereof, and feed the unfortunate poor.
22:29 Thereafter let them bring to an end their state of self-denial, and let them fulfill the vows which they [may] have made, and let them walk [once again] around the Most Ancient Temple.
22:30 All this [is ordained by God]; and if one honours God's sacred commandments, it will redound to his own good in his Sustainer's sight. And all [kinds of] cattle have been made lawful to you [for sacrifice and food], save what is mentioned to you [as forbidden]. Shun, then, [all that God has forbidden and, most of all,] the loathsome evil of idolatrous beliefs and practices; and shun every word that is untrue,
22:31 [inclining] towards God, [and] turning away from all that is false, without ascribing divine qualities to aught beside Him: for he who ascribes divinity to aught but God is like one who is hurtling down from the skies whereupon the birds carry him off, or the wind blows him away onto a far-off place.
22:32 This is [to be borne in mind]. And anyone who honours the symbols set up by God [shall know that,] verily, these [symbols derive their value] from the God-consciousness in the [believers'] hearts.
22:33 In that [Godconsciousness] you shall find benefits until a term set [by Him is fulfilled], and [you shall know that] its goal and end is the Most Ancient Temple.
22:34 And [thus it is:] unto every community [that has ever believed in Us] have We appointed [sacrifice as] an act of worship, so that they might extol the name of God over whatever heads of cattle He may have provided for them [to this end]. And [always bear in mind:] your God is the One and Only God: hence, surrender yourselves unto Him.
And give thou the glad tiding [of God's acceptance] unto all who are humble ?
22:35 all whose hearts tremble with awe whenever God is mentioned, and all who patiently bear whatever ill befalls them, and all who are constant in prayer and spend on others out of what We provide for them as sustenance.
22:36 And as for the sacrifice of cattle, We have ordained it for you as one of the symbols set up by God, in which there is [much] good for you. Hence, extol the name of God over them when they are lined up [for sacrifice]; and after they have fallen lifeless to the ground, eat of their flesh, and feed the poor who is contented with his lot [and does not beg], as well as him who is forced to beg. It is to this end that We have made them subservient to your needs, so that you might have cause to be grateful.
22:37 [But bear in mind:] never does their flesh reach God, and neither their blood: it is only your God consciousness that reaches Him. It is to this end that We have made them subservient to your needs, so that you might glorify God for all the guidance with which He has graced you. And give thou this glad tiding unto the doers of good:
22:38 Verily, God will ward off [all evil] from those who attain to faith; [and,] verily, God does not love anyone who betrays his trust and is bereft of gratitude.
