¹ *545) Syiar Allah adalah segala amalan yang dilakukan dalam rangka ibadah haji dan tempat-tempat mengerjakannya.

(Demikianlah) perintah itu (dan barang siapa mengagungkan syiar-syiar Allah, maka sesungguhnya hal itu) mengagungkan syiar-syiar Allah, yaitu menyembelih hewan kurban untuk tanah suci, seumpamanya hewan kurban itu dipilih yang baik dan digemukkan terlebih dahulu (timbul dari ketakwaan hati) dalam diri mereka. Hewan-hewan kurban itu dinamakan Sya'aair disebabkan kesyiarannya yakni kesemarakannya, disebabkan hewan-hewan tersebut telah diberi tanda yang menunjukkan, bahwa mereka untuk dikurbankan, yaitu seperti dicap dengan besi panas pada punggungnya, sehingga menambah semaraknya suasana hari raya.

Tafsir Surat Al-Hajj: 32-33 Demikianlah (perintah Allah). Dan barang siapa mengagungkan syiar-syiar Allah, maka sesungguhnya itu timbul dari ketakwaan hati. Bagi kalian pada binatang-binatang hadyu itu ada beberapa manfaat, sampai kepada waktu yang ditentukan, kemudian tempat wajib (serta akhir masa) menyembelihnya ialah setelah sampai ke Baitul 'Atiq (Baitullah). Ayat 32 Allah ﷻ berfirman: “Demikianlah. Dan barang siapa mengagungkan syiar-syiar Allah.” (Al-Hajj: 32). Yakni perintah-perintah-Nya. “Maka sesungguhnya itu timbul dari ketakwaan hati.” (Al-Hajj: 32). Yang antara lain adalah mengagungkan hewan hadyu dan hewan kurban, seperti apa yang dikatakan oleh Al-Hakam dari Miqsam, dari Ibnu Abbas, bahwa mengagungkan hewan hadyu dan hewan kurban ialah dengan cara menggemukkannya dan mengurusnya dengan pengurusan yang baik. Ibnu Abu Hatim mengatakan, telah menceritakan kepada kami Abu Sa'id Al-Asyaj, telah menceritakan kepada kami Hafs ibnu Ghayyas, dari Ibnu Abu Laila, dari Ibnu Abu Nujaih, dari Mujahid, dari Ibnu Abbas sehubungan dengan makna firman-Nya: “Demikianlah (perintah Allah). Dan barang siapa mengagungkan syiar-syiar Allah.” (Al-Hajj: 32). Yaitu menggemukkan hewan hadyu, mengurusnya dengan baik, dan membesarkannya. Abu Umamah telah meriwayatkan dari Sahl, "Kami dahulu menggemukkan hewan-hewan kurban di Madinah, dan semua kaum muslim melakukan hal yang sama." Atsar diriwayatkan oleh Imam Bukhari. Diriwayatkan dari Abu Hurairah, bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ pernah bersabda: “Darah (dari) hewan (kurban) yang berbulu kelabu lebih disukai oleh Allah daripada darah dua hewan kurban yang berbulu hitam.” Hadis riwayat Imam Ahmad dan Imam Ibnu Majah. Para ulama mengatakan bahwa 'afra artinya 'berbulu putih, tetapi tidak cerah, yakni kelabu.' Hewan kurban yang berbulu kelabu ini lebih baik daripada hewan kurban yang berbulu lainnya, sekalipun hewan kurban yang berbulu lain sudah dinilai cukup; karena berdasarkan apa yang telah disebutkan di dalam kitab Shahih Bukhari melalui sahabat Anas r.a., bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ berkurban dengan dua ekor domba yang berbulu putih berbelang hitam dan bertanduk. Diriwayatkan dari Abu Sa'id, bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ berkurban dengan seekor domba yang bertanduk, yang pada matanya terdapat belang hitam, begitu pula pada bagian mulutnya dan semua kakinya. Hadis diriwayatkan oleh ahlus sunan dan dinilai sahih oleh Imam Turmuzi. Di dalam kitab Sunan Ibnu Majah disebutkan sebuah hadis melalui Abu Rafi', bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ berkurban dengan dua ekor domba yang besar-besar lagi gemuk-gemuk, bertanduk, berbulu putih, berbelang hitam, yang kedua-duanya telah dikebiri. Hal yang sama telah diriwayatkan oleh Abu Daud dan Ibnu Majah dari Jabir, bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ berkurban dengan dua ekor domba yang bertanduk, berbulu putih berbelang hitam, yang kedua-duanya telah dikebiri. Menurut suatu pendapat, kedua domba tersebut buah pelirnya dihancurkan dan tidak dipotong. Hanya Allah-lah yang lebih mengetahui. Diriwayatkan dari Ali r.a. yang mengatakan bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ memerintahkan kepada kami agar memeriksa dengan teliti kedua mata dan kedua telinga hewan kurban, dan kami tidak boleh menyembelih hewan kurban yang muqabalah, mudabarah, syarqa, dan kharqa. Muqdbalah ialah hewan kurban yang bagian depan telinganya terpotong. Mudabarah ialah hewan kurban yang bagian belakang telinganya terpotong. Syarqa ialah hewan kurban yang telinganya terpotong secara memanjang. Demikianlah menurut penafsiran Imam Syafii dan Imam As-mu'i. Adapun kharqa ialah hewan kurban yang daun telinganya berlubang. Hadis ini diriwayatkan oleh Imam Ahmad dan ahlus sunan, dan dinilai sahih oleh Imam Turmuzi. Mereka telah meriwayatkan pula melalui sahabat Ali r.a. yang mengatakan, "Rasulullah ﷺ melarang kami mengurbankan hewan yang tanduk dan telinganya terpotong." Sa'id ibnul Musayyab mengatakan bahwa kalau yang terpotong lebih dari separo, dinamakan 'adb. Sebagian ahli lughah (bahasa) mengatakan, jika tanduk bagian atas terpotong dinamakan qasma; adapun 'adb, maka yang terpotong adalah bagian bawahnya (yakni yang retak adalah bawahnya). Sedangkan kalau daun telinga 'adb, artinya hewan yang daun telinganya sebagian terpotong. Menurut pendapat Imam Syafii, berkurban dengan hewan-hewan tersebut dapat dinilai cukup, tetapi hukumnya makruh. Imam Ahmad berpendapat bahwa mengurbankan hewan yang terpotong daun telinga dan tanduknya tidak boleh (tidak mencukupi), karena berdasarkan hadis di atas. Imam Malik mengatakan, jika ada darah yang mengalir dari tanduknya yang terpotong, tidak cukup untuk dijadikan kurban. Tetapi jika tidak ada darah yang mengalir darinya, maka cukup untuk dijadikan kurban. Diriwayatkan dari Al-Barra, bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda: “Ada empat macam hewan yang tidak boleh dipakai untuk kurban, yaitu: Hewan yang buta, yang jelas butanya; hewan yang sakit, yang jelas parah sakitnya; hewan yang pincang, yang jelas pincangnya; dan hewan yang patah tulang kakinya, tak dapat disembuhkan.” Hadis riwayat Imam Ahmad dan ahlus sunan, dinilai sahih oleh Imam Turmuzi. Aib-aib ini mengurangi daging hewan yang bersangkutan, karena lemah dan tidak mampu mencukupi kebutuhan makannya, karena kambing-kambing yang sehat telah mendahuluinya merebut makanannya. Oleh sebab itu, hewan-hewan tersebut tidak boleh dijadikan kurban karena kurang mencukupi, menurut pendapat Imam Syafii dan imam-imam lainnya, sesuai dengan makna lahiriah hadis. Kalangan mazhab Syafii berbeda pendapat sehubungan dengan ternak yang sakit ringan. Ada dua pendapat di kalangan mereka. Abu Daud telah meriwayatkan melalui Atabah ibnu Abdus Sulami, bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ melarang mengurbankan hewan yang kurus, hewan yang terpotong tanduk (telinganya), hewan yang buta matanya, hewan yang lemah, dan hewan yang pincang. Aib atau cela yang telah disebutkan dalam hadis di atas menjadikan hewan tersebut tidak cukup untuk kurban. Tetapi jika aib atau cela tersebut terjadi sesudah hewan ditentukan untuk jadi kurban, maka tidak mengapa untuk dikurbankan. Hal ini menurut kalangan mazhab Syafii, berbeda dengan pendapat Imam Abu Hanifah. Imam Ahmad telah meriwayatkan melalui Abu Sa'id yang telah menceritakan bahwa ia pernah membeli seekor domba untuk kurban, kemudian ada serigala yang menyerangnya dan sempat memakan sebagian dari pantatnya. Kemudian Abu Sa'id menanyakan hal tersebut kepada Nabi ﷺ. Maka Nabi ﷺ bersabda: “Kurbankanlah domba itu.” Karena itulah dalam hadis yang telah disebutkan di atas dikatakan bahwa Nabi ﷺ memerintahkan kepada kami agar memeriksa mata dan telinga hewan yang hendak dikurbankan. Dengan kata lain, hendaknya hewan kurban itu harus gemuk, baik, dan berharga. Seperti yang telah disebutkan di dalam riwayat Imam Ahmad dan Imam Abu Daud melalui Abdullah ibnu Umar yang mengatakan bahwa Umar pernah mendapat hadiah seekor unta yang terbaik (unggul) seharga tiga ratus dinar. Lalu Umar datang menghadap kepada Nabi ﷺ dan bertanya, "Wahai Rasulullah, sesungguhnya saya diberi hadiah seekor unta yang terbaik seharga tiga ratus dinar. Bolehkah saya menjualnya, lalu hasilnya saya belikan unta biasa buat kurban," (dengan maksud agar dapat menghasilkan beberapa ekor unta). Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda: “Jangan, sembelihlah unta terbaik itu sebagai kurbanmu.” Ad-Dahhak telah meriwayatkan dari Ibnu Abbas, bahwa al-budn (hewan kurban) termasuk syiar Allah. Muhammad ibnu Abu Musa mengatakan bahwa wuquf di Arafah, Muzdalifah, melempar jumrah, mencukur rambut, dan berkurban termasuk syiar-syiar Allah. Ibnu Umar mengatakan bahwa syiar Allah yang paling besar ialah Baitullah. Ayat 33 Firman Allah ﷻ: “Bagi kalian pada binatang-binatang hadyu itu ada beberapa manfaat.” (Al-Hajj: 33) Yakni pada hewan-hewan kurban itu terdapat beberapa manfaat bagi kalian dari air susunya, bulunya, kulitnya, dapat pula dijadikan sebagai sarana angkutan sampai waktu tertentu. Miqsam telah meriwayatkan dari Ibnu Abbas sehubungan dengan makna firman-Nya: “Bagi kalian pada binatang-binatang hadyu itu ada beberapa manfaat sampai kepada waktu yang ditentukan.” (Al-Hajj: 33). Yaitu hewan ternak yang tidak dikhususkan untuk kurban. Mujahid telah mengatakan sehubungan dengan makna firman-Nya: “Bagi kalian pada binatang-binatang hadyu itu ada beberapa manfaat sampai kepada waktu yang ditentukan.” (Al-Hajj: 33). Maksudnya, dapat dinaiki, dapat diambil air susunya dan anaknya; tetapi apabila telah dinamakan budnah atau hadyu (yakni untuk kurban), maka semuanya itu tidak boleh lagi. Hal yang sama telah dikatakan oleh Ata, Ad-Dahhak, Qatadah, Ata Al-Khurrasani, dan lain-lainnya. Ulama lainnya mengatakan bahwa seseorang bahkan boleh memanfaatkannya sekalipun telah dinamakan hadyu jika memang diperlukan. Seperti apa yang telah ditetapkan di dalam kitab Sahihain melalui sahabat Anas r.a. yang mengatakan bahwa Rasulullah ﷺ melihat seorang lelaki sedang menggiring hewan budnah-nya. Maka beliau ﷺ bersabda: "Naikilah!" Lelaki itu menjawab, "Sesungguhnya ternak ini adalah untuk kurban.” Nabi ﷺ bersabda, "Celakalah kamu, naikilah, untuk kedua atau ketiga kalinya.” Di dalam riwayat Imam Muslim disebutkan melalui Jabir r.a., dari Rasulullah ﷺ yang telah bersabda: “Naikilah dengan cara yang makruf bila kamu terpaksa harus menaikinya.” Syu'bah ibnu Zuhair telah meriwayatkan dari Abu Sabit Al-A'ma, dari Al-Mugirah ibnu Abul Hurr, dari Ali, bahwa ia pernah melihat seorang lelaki sedang menggiring hewan budnah (kurban)nya yang telah beranak. Maka Ali berkata, "Jangan kamu minum air susunya kecuali lebihan dari sisa anaknya. Apabila telah tiba Hari Raya Kurban, sembelihlah unta itu bersama anaknya juga." Firman Allah ﷻ: “Kemudian tempat wajib (serta akhir masa) menyembelihnya ialah setelah sampai ke Baitul 'Atiq (Baitullah).” (Al-Hajj: 33). Yakni tempat tujuan terakhir dari hewan hadyu itu ialah Baitul 'Atiq (Ka'bah). Sama dengan pengertian yang terdapat di dalam firman-Nya: “Sebagai hadyu yang dibawa sampai ke Ka'bah.” (Al-Maidah: 95). Dan firman Allah ﷻ: “Dan menghalangi hewan kurban sampai ke tempat (penyembelihan)nya.” (Al-Fath: 25). Dalam pembahasan yang lalu telah disebutkan makna Baitul 'Atiq. Ibnu Juraij telah mengatakan dari Ata bahwa Ibnu Abbas pernah mengatakan, "Setiap orang yang telah melakukan tawaf di Baitullah (tawaf ifadah) berarti dia telah ber-tahallul." Allah ﷻ berfirman: “Kemudian tempat wajib (serta akhir masa) menyembelihnya ialah setelah sampai ke Baitul 'Atiq (Baitullah).” (Al-Hajj: 23)

Darihal Haji (2) Diperintahkan Tuhan bahwa di dalam mengerjakan ibadah haji itu hendaklah: “Dalam keadtran ikhlas karenaAllah." (pangkal ayat 31). Tidak ada cabang ingatan kepada yang lain. Ditegaskan: “Tidak mereka mempersekutukan yang lain dengan Dia." Karena telah kita ketahui sejak mula bahwa segala ibadat dan manasik yang kita kerjakan itu dan Ka'bah itu sendiri diperintahkan Tuhan mendirikannya kepada Nabi Ibrahim ialah untuk menyembah Allah. "Dan barangsiapa mempersekutukan yang lain dengan Allah," perkaranya adalah amat berat sekali, karena dosa mensyirikkan Allah itu tiada akan terampun lagi, kecuali dengan bertaubat yang seberianya serta kembali semula ke pangkuan Islam. "Maka adalah dia seakan-akan jatuh dan langit ialu disambar burung," melayang-layang di udara tidak ada kekuatan yang bertahan sehingga jadi bangsa burung terbang: “Atau diterbangkan dia oleh angin ke tempat yang amat jauh." (ujung ayat 31). Terlepas dari daya tank bumi sehingga tercampak di ruang angkasa, sehingga tidak tentu lagi ke mana terlempanya, jauh tak dapat dicari satu lagi perumpamaan yang tepat! Itulah orang yang kehilangan bumi tempat berpijak, kehilangan langit tempat berlindung. Itulah hidup yang kehilangan arti! “Demikianlah adanya!" (pangkal ayat 32). Bahaya begitulah nasib orang mempersekutukan yang lain dengan Allah, padahal yang lain itu alam belaka. Terlunta-lunta, terkatung-katung karena menggantungkan penghargaan bukan kepada tempatnya! “Dan barangsiapa yang menghormati syi'ar-syi'ar Allah, maka sesungguhnya itu adalah dari sebab ketakwaan hati." (ujung ayat 32). Sya'airullah, atau syi'ar-syi'ar Allah artinya ialah melakukan berbagai upacara di tempat-tempat yang tertentu. Di keliling Ka'bah kita tawaf. Di antara Shafa dan Marwah kita berjalan pergi dan kembali tujuh kali. Di Arafah kita wuquf. Di Masy'aril Haram atau Muzdalifah kita berhenti sejenak. Di Mina kita menyembelih had-yi dan melontar jahirah. Selesai manasik kita bergunting rambut atau bercukur. Semua itu nama syi'ar Allah dan semuanya kita laksanakan menurut aturan. Tidaklah kita melontar jamrah di bukit Shafa, atau berwuquf di dalam Masjid al-Haram. Ralau semuanya itu kita lakukan dengan patuh menurut aturan, maka bertambah suburlah ketakwaan kita kepada Tuhan. Itulah yang akan menyebabkan haji yang mabrur. Peringatan Tuhan di ayat 32 ini ialah untuk menjelaskan segala upacara yang kita lakukan itu sekali-kali bukanlah kita memuja dan menyembah tempat itu. Kita kerjakan semuanya itu tidak lain hanyalah karena taat melakukan perintah Tuhan. Jadi adalah semata-mata takwa kepada Allah. Ini dicontohkan Saiyidiria Umar sendiri, ketika beliau berdiri di hadapan “Hajar Al-Aswad" (batu hitam) akan menciumnya. Beliau berakta: ‘Hai batu, kalau bukanlah aku melihat Rasul Allah s.a.w. mencium engkau, tidaklah akan aku cium engkau, tidaklah akan aku cium engkau. Karena engkau hanya suatu batu, yang tidak memberi manfaat sesuatu pun dan tidak pula memberi mudharat." Maka semuanya itu hanya ucapan, bukan ibadat. Sebab itu tidaklah kita boleh datang wuquf ke Arafah lain dari 9 Dzul Hijjah dan tidak kita melempar jumrah lain dari hari Nahar dan hari tasyriq. Dan semuanya itu tidaklah tempat “keramat" atau “sakti" atau “angker" sebagai diperbuat setengah orang Islam yang telah tersesat terhadap orang-orang yang mereka anggap suci dan mereka anggap puja. “Adalah bagi kamu pada (binatang-binatang temak) itu beberapa manfaat," (pangkal ayat 33). Tiap-tiap mengerjakan umrah dan haji, terutama, senantiasalah membawa binatang temak, sebab sehabis haji sudah tentu akan menyembelih al-had-yu! Al-had-yu adalah nama yang diberikan kepada binatang-binatang temak yang akan disembelih berkenaan dengan manasik. Ada yang wajib, yang dinamai juga dam ketika haji tamattu' dan haji qiran. Atau pembayaran melanggar atau karena ketinggalan suatu wajib, yang sunnat talah kurhari atau adh-hiyah. Di dalam ayat ini diterangkan bahwa sebelum binatangbinatang itu diaembelih, boleh diambil manfaatnya lebih dahulu. mIsalnya diperah susunya dan diminum, atau dijadikan tunggangan dalam perjalanan menuju haji: “Sampai kepada suatu masa tertentu." Yaitu pada hari Nahar. "Yaumun Nahari" artinya ialah hari sembelih. “Kemudian itu tempatnya ialah (bila) sampai di rumah kuno itu." (ujung a,'rat 33). Yaitu tempat atau masa berhenti mengambil manfaat dan tiba waktu tertentu buat menyembelihnya ialah bila telah sampai di rumah kuno, di Ka'bah itu. Artinya tentu saja bukan menyembelih di dekat Ka'bah. Kalau demikian tentu kotor mesjid terutama tempat tawaf. Maksudnya ialah bahwa sembelihan itu dilakukan setelah selesai mengerjakan wuquf dan setelah melontar jumratul ‘aqabah. Waktu itu sudah tahallul! Artinya sudah halal kembali. Maka yang mula dikerjakan ialah menyembelih had-yu itu. “Dan bagi tiap-tiap umat telah Kami tentukan peribadatan." (pangkal ayat 34). Mansakan artinya peribadatan. Yang terutama dimaksud dalam ayat ini ialah menyembelih kurhari sebagai bagian dari ibadat. Sejak dart Habit dan Qabil, kedua anak dan Nabi Adam perintah berkurhari ini sudah dimulai. Kurhari yang seorang, yaitu Habit diterima Tuhan. Kurhari Qabil tidak diterima, hingga timbul dengki dan terjadi pembunuhan pertama dalam sejarah manusia. (Lihat Surat 5, al-Maidah ayat 27). Umat Nabi Musa juga menjalankan kurban. Kambing itu dibakar, dikatakan bahwa asap pembakaran yang menjulang ke langit itulah penghantarnya: “Supaya mereka menyebut nama Allah atas pemberian rezeki kepada mereka." Yaitu tanda syukur kepada Allah dengan menyebut segala puji-pujian kepadaNya; “Dan binatang-binatang temak." Yaitu tanda syukur itu ialah dengan menyembelih rezeki binatang-binatang temak anugerah Tuhan: “Maka Tuhan kamu itu adalah Yang Maha Esa." Tidak ada Tuhan selain Dia: “Dan kepadaNyalah hendaknya kamu berserah diri." Sehingga tujuan hidupmu itu jelas satu, tidak bercabang kepada yang lain. Lalu Allah menyuruh -NabiNya Muhammad s.a.w. supaya dIsampaikan kepada orang yang beriman: “Dan gembirakanlah orang-orang yang tertunduk." (ujung ayat 34). Di ayat 35 langsung diterangkan tanda-tanda dari orang-orang yang bertunduk kepada Tuhan, yang tidak banyak cingcong di dalam melaksanakan titah Ilahi. “(Yaitu) orang-orang apabila disebut Allah, gentarlah hati mereka." (pangkal ayat 35). Yang menyebabkan gentar hati kita mendengar nama Allah disebut ialah tersebab di dalam jiwa iman sudah tumbuh dengan subur. Bila Allah disebut terbayanglah kekuasaanNya yang tidak terbatas! Terbayang kuat kuasaNya menaikkan orang yang tadi di bawah, atau menjatuhkan orang yang menyangka atau dIsangka orang tidak akan jatuh lagi karena teguh kekuasaan dan kedudukannya."Dan orang-orang yang bersabar alas apa yang menimpa mereka." Karena iman jualah yang menyebabkan dia sabar; Iman jua yang menyebabkan dia yakin bahwa kesusahan hari ini akan berganti dengan kemudahan besok; atau dalam mushibah yang menimpa itu terkandung rahasia nikmat Ilahi yang tinggi, yang kemudian pasti akan terbuka rahasia itu. Sebab orang beriman telah sampai kepada keyakinan bahwa tidak ada satu mushibah yang tidak baik akibatnya: “Dan mereka mendirikan sembahyang." Dan sembahyang adalah tiang dan kehidupan. Sembahyang adalah tali yang tidak putus dengan Tuhan. Sehingga Tuhan tidak akan pernah dilupakan untuk pelita bagi jiwa. "Dan rezeki yang Kami berikan, mereka belanjakan pula." (ujung ayat 35). Artinya bahwa mereka tidak bakhil menahan rezeki Allah untuk diri sendiri, berat member pertolongan kepada fakir dan miskin. Dan lantaran bakhli juga mereka pun enggan mengerjakan ibadat haji. “Dan binatang-binatang kurban itu Kami jadikan dia untuk kamu sebagai sebagian dart syi'ar-syi'ar Allah." (pangkal ayat 36). Di sini disebut wal-budna: yang kita artikan menurut maksudnya yaitu binatang, terutama unta yang telah disediakan buat kurban. Di ayat ini dijelaskan sekali lagi bahwa penyembelihan kurban itu termasuk di dalam syi'ar-syi'ar Allah juga. Ada haji ada kurban. Kalau tuan lihat bergelimpangan unta, sapi, kambing dan domba di tempat penyembelihan di Mina. di hari Nahar, karena memang hari raya itu ialah hari upacara kurban, hari syi'ar Allah yang bernama kurban. Hari rayanya bernama ‘Idul Adhha, artinya ialah Hari Raya berkurban. Dia termasuk ibadat: “Untuk kamu padanya adalah kebaikan." Artinya kamu diberi pahala mengerjakannya. "Maka sebutlah nama Allah atasnya dalam keadaan berbaris-baris." Artinya mereka menyembelih itu atas nama Allah. “Dengan nama Allah, Allah adalah Yang Maha Besar. Ya Tuhan. Kurhari ini adalah anugerah dari Engkau, dan kembali kepada Engkau." Dan aturlah penyembelihan itu dengan tersusun baik. Kalau unta supaya diikat kakinya yang kiri, hingga dia diaembelih sedang berdiri dengan tiga kaki. Itulah maksud berbaris menurut keterangan Ibnu Abbas yang dirawikan oleh al-Hakim. “Maka apabila dia telah gugur," artinya telah mati karena telah putus urat lehernya (marih) dipotong pIsau tajam, niscaya dikuliti dan diambil dagingnya buat dimakan. "Makanlah daripadanya," di sini jelas bahwa orang yang empunya sembelihan dianjurkan makan sebagian dari daging itu: “Dan beri makanlah fakir yang menahan diri," artinya dia patut dapat bagian tetapi dia tidak mau meminta bagian. Entah karena malu, entah karena merasa aib pergi meminta: “Dan fakir yang meminta." Dalam ayat ini jelas sekali Tuhan menyuruh mengutamakan terlebih dahulu yang tidak mau meminta itu daripada yang datang meminta: “Demikianlah telah Kami mudahkan dia bagi kamu," sehingga kamu tidak ragu lagi mengambil sebagian bust kamu makan bersama keluargamu ala kadanya, dan mendahulukan orang patut-patut yang tidak mau menadahkan tangan meminta-minta: “Supaya kamu barsyukur." (ujung ayat 36) atas baiknya peraturan Tuhan itu. “Tidaklah akan mencapai Allah daging-dagingnya dan tidak darah-darahnya, tetapi yang akan sampai kepodaNya ialah takwa daripada kamu." (pangkal ayat 37). Dengan ini dijetaskan kurhari menurut Islam. Dia bukanlah membakar daging kurhari lalu asapnya naik ke langit, sebagai persangkaan orang-orang dahulu, tetapi dipotong dan dagingnya dibagikan kepada yang mtskin. Yang menyampaikannya kepada Tuhan ialah jika benar hatimu ketika menyembelih benar-benar karena Allah. Demikianlah Kami mudahkan dia bagi kamu," sehingga tidak kesulitan atau kesukaran: “Supaya kamu membesarkan Allah atas apa yang telah diberiNya petunjuk kepada kamu," atas bagaimana caranya beribadat yang dapat diterima Tuhan: “Dan hendaklah engkau gembirakan."wahai Nabi: “Akan orang-orang yang berbuat kebajikan." (ujung ayat 37).

The Reward of the Believers When Allah tells us about the state of the people of Hell -- we seek refuge with Allah from that state of punishment, vengeance, burning and chains -- and the garments of fire that have been prepared for them, He then tells us about the state of the people of Paradise -- we ask Allah by His grace and kindness to admit us therein. He tells us: إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُدْخِلُ الَّذِينَ امَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الاَْنْهَارُ Truly, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous good deeds, to Gardens underneath which rivers flow, means, these rivers flow throughout its regions, beneath its trees and palaces, and its inhabitants direct them to go wherever they want. يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا wherein they will be adorned (-- with jewelry --), مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَلُوْلُوًا with bracelets of gold and pearls, means, on their arms, as the Prophet said in the agreed-upon Hadith: تَبْلُغُ الْحِلْيَةُ مِنَ الْمُوْمِنِ حَيْثُ يَبْلُغُ الْوَضُوء The jewelry of the believer (in Paradise) will reach as far as his Wudu' reached. وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ and their garments therein will be of silk. in contrast to the garments of fire worn by the inhabitants of Hell, the people of Paradise will have garments of silk, Sundus and Istabraq fine green silk and gold embroidery, as Allah says: عَـلِيَهُمْ ثِيَابُ سُندُسٍ خُضْرٌ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٌ وَحُلُّواْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن فِضَّةٍ وَسَقَـهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ شَرَاباً طَهُوراً إِنَّ هَـذَا كَانَ لَكُمْ جَزَاءً وَكَانَ سَعْيُكُم مَّشْكُوراً Their garments will be of green Sundus, and Istabraq. They will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give them a pure drink. (And it will be said to them):Verily, this is a reward for you, and your endeavor has been accepted. (76:21-22) In the Sahih, it says: لَاا تَلْبَسُوا الْحَرِيرَ وَلَاا الدِّيبَاجَ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ لَبِسَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا لَمْ يَلْبَسْهُ فِي الاْاخِرَة Do not wear fine silk or gold embroidery in this world, for whoever wears them in this world, will not wear them in the Hereafter. Abdullah bin Az-Zubayr said, Those who do not wear silk in the Hereafter are those who will not enter Paradise. Allah says: وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ (and their garments therein will be of silk). And He tells us وَهُدُوا إِلَى الطَّيِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ And they are guided unto goodly speech. This is like the Ayat: وَأُدْخِلَ الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ الصَّـلِحَاتِ جَنَّـتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا الَانْهَـرُ خَـلِدِينَ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِمْ تَحِيَّتُهُمْ فِيهَا سَلَـمٌ And those who believed and did righteous deeds, will be made to enter Gardens under which rivers flow -- to dwell therein forever, with the permission of their Lord. Their greeting therein will be:Salam (peace)! (14:23) جَنَّـتُ عَدْنٍ يَدْخُلُونَهَا وَمَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ ءَابَايِهِمْ وَأَزْوَجِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ وَالمَلَـيِكَةُ يَدْخُلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِّن كُلِّ بَابٍ سَلَـمٌ عَلَيْكُم بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ And angels shall enter unto them from every gate (saying):Salamun `Alaykum (peace be upon you!), for you persevered in patience! Excellent indeed is the final home! (13:23-24) لَا يَسْمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغْواً وَلَا تَأْثِيماً إِلاَّ قِيلً سَلَـماً سَلَـماً No evil vain talk will they hear therein, nor any sinful speech. But only the saying of, Peace! Peace! (Salaman! Salaman!). (56:25-26) They will be guided to a place in which they will hear good speech. وَيُلَقَّوْنَ فِيهَا تَحِيَّةً وَسَلَـماً Therein they shall be met with greetings and the word of peace and respect. (25:75), unlike the scorn which will be heaped upon the people of Hell by way of rebuke, when they are told: ذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ الْحَرِيقِ (Taste the torment of burning!). (22:23) وَهُدُوا إِلَى صِرَاطِ الْحَمِيدِ and they are guided to the path of Him Who is Worthy of all praises. to a place in which they will give praise to their Lord for all His kindness, blessings and favors towards them, as it says in the Sahih Hadith: إِنَّهُمْ يُلْهَمُونَ التَّسْبِيحَ وَالتَّحْمِيدَ كَمَا يُلْهَمُونَ النَّفَس They will be inspired with words of glorification and praise, just as they are inspired with breath. Some scholars of Tafsir said that, the Ayah, وَهُدُوا إِلَى الطَّيِّبِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ (And they are guided unto goodly speech), refers to the Qur'an; and it was said that it means La ilaha illallah or words of remembrance prescribed in Islam. And the Ayah: وَهُدُوا إِلَى صِرَاطِ الْحَمِيدِ (and they are guided to the path of Him Who is Worthy of all praises), means, the straight path in this world. These interpretations do not contradict that mentioned above. And Allah knows best. A Warning to Those Who hinder Others from the Path of Allah and from Al-Masjid Al-Haram and Who seek to do Evil Actions therein Allah rebukes the disbelievers for preventing the believers from coming to Al-Masjid Al-Haram and performing their rites and rituals there, claiming that they were its guardians, وَمَا كَانُواْ أَوْلِيَأءَهُ إِنْ أَوْلِيَأوُهُ إِلاَّ الْمُتَّقُونَ and they are not its guardians. None can be its guardians except those who have Taqwa. (8:34) In this Ayah there is proof that it was revealed in Al-Madinah, as Allah says in Surah Al-Baqarah: يَسْـَلُونَكَ عَنِ الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ قِتَالٍ فِيهِ قُلْ قِتَالٌ فِيهِ كَبِيرٌ وَصَدٌّ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَكُفْرٌ بِهِ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَإِخْرَاجُ أَهْلِهِ مِنْهُ أَكْبَرُ عِندَ اللَّهِ They ask you concerning fighting in the Sacred Months. Say, Fighting therein is a great (transgression) but a greater (transgression) with Allah is to prevent mankind from following the way of Allah, to disbelieve in Him, to prevent access to Al-Masjid Al-Haram, and to drive out its inhabitants. (2:217) And Allah says here: إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ Verily, those who disbelieved and hinder (men) from the path of Allah, and from Al-Masjid Al-Haram, meaning, not only are they disbelievers, but they also hinder people from the path of Allah and from Al-Masjid Al-Haram. They prevent the believers who want to go there from reaching it, although the believers have more right than anyone else to go there. The structure of this phrase is like that to be found in the Ayah: الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَتَطْمَيِنُّ قُلُوبُهُمْ بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ أَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ تَطْمَيِنُّ الْقُلُوبُ Those who believed, and whose hearts find rest in the remembrance of Allah, verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest. (13:28) Not only are they believers, but their hearts also find rest in the remembrance of Allah. The Issue of renting Houses in Makkah Allah says: الَّذِي جَعَلْنَاهُ لِلنَّاسِ سَوَاء الْعَاكِفُ فِيهِ وَالْبَادِ which We have made (open) to (all) men, the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there. meaning that they prevent people from reaching Al-Masjid Al-Haram, which Allah has made equally accessible to all in Shariah, with no differentiation between those who live there and those who live far away from it. سَوَاء الْعَاكِفُ فِيهِ وَالْبَادِ the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there, Part of this equality is that everyone has equal access to all parts of the city and can live there, as Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn Abbas concerning the Ayah: سَوَاء الْعَاكِفُ فِيهِ وَالْبَادِ (the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there), he (Ibn Abbas) said: Both the people of Makkah and others can stay in Al-Masjid Al-Haram. سَوَاء الْعَاكِفُ فِيهِ وَالْبَادِ the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there, Mujahid said, The people of Makkah and others are equally allowed to stay there. This was also the view of Abu Salih, Abdur-Rahman bin Sabit and Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam. Abdur-Razzaq narrated from Ma`mar, from Qatadah who said: Its own people and others are equal therein. This is the issue about which Ash-Shafi`i and Ishaq bin Rahwayh differed in the Masjid of Al-Khayf, when Ahmad bin Hanbal was also present. Ash-Shafi`i was of the opinion that the various parts of Makkah can be owned, inherited and rented, and he used as evidence the Hadith of Usamah bin Zayd who said, I said, O Messenger of Allah, will you go and stay tomorrow in your house in Makkah? He said, وَهَلْ تَرَكَ لَنَا عَقِيلٌ مِنْ رِبَاعٍ Has Aqil left us any property? Then he said, لَاا يَرِثُ الْكَافِرُ الْمُسْلِمَ وَلَاا الْمُسْلِمُ الْكَافِر A disbeliever does not inherit from a Muslim and a Muslim does not inherit from a disbeliever. This Hadith was recorded in the Two Sahihs. He also used as evidence the report that Umar bin Al-Khattab bought a house in Makkah from Safwan bin Umayyah for four thousand Dinars, and made it into a prison. This was also the view of Tawus and `Amr bin Dinar. Ishaq bin Rahwayh was of the opinion that they (houses in Makkah) could not be inherited or rented. This was the view of a number of the Salaf, and Mujahid and Ata' said likewise. Ishaq bin Rahwayh used as evidence the report recorded by Ibn Majah from Alqamah bin Nadlah who said, The Messenger of Allah, Abu Bakr and Umar died, and nobody claimed any property in Makkah except the grazing animals. Whoever needed to live there would take up residence there, and whoever did not need to live there would let others take up residence there. Abdur-Razzaq recorded that Abdullah bin `Amr said, It is not allowed to sell or rent the houses of Makkah. He also said, narrating from Ibn Jurayj: `Ata' would not allow people to charge rent in the Haram, and he told me that Umar bin Al-Khattab did not allow people to put gates on the houses of Makkah because the pilgrims used to stay in their courtyards. The first person to put a gate on his house was Suhayl bin `Amr. Umar bin Al-Khattab sent for him about that and he said, `Listen to me, O Commander of the faithful, I am a man who engages in trade and I want to protect my back.' He said, `Then you may do that.' Abdur-Razzaq recorded from Mujahid that Umar bin Al-Khattab said, O people of Makkah, do not put gates on your houses, and let the Bedouins stay wherever they want. He said:Ma`mar told us, narrating from someone who heard `Ata' say about the Ayah, سَوَاء الْعَاكِفُ فِيهِ وَالْبَادِ (the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there), They may stay wherever they want. Ad-Daraqutni recorded a saying reported from Abdullah bin `Amr: Whoever charges rent for the houses of Makkah, consumes fire. Imam Ahmad took a middle path, according to what his son Salih narrated from him, and he said, They may be owned and inherited, but they should not be rented, so as to reconcile between all the proofs. And Allah knows best. A Warning to Those Who want to commit Evil Actions in the Haram Allah says: وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong, him We shall cause to taste from a painful torment. بِظُلْمٍ (or to do wrong), means, he aims deliberately to do wrong, and it is not the matter of misunderstanding. As Ibn Jurayj said narrating from Ibn Abbas, This means someone whose actions are intentional. Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said, The evil action of Shirk. Al-`Awfi reported that Ibn Abbas said: The evil action is allowing in the Haram what Allah has forbidden, such as mistreating and killing, whereby you do wrong to those who have done you no wrong and you kill those who have not fought you. If a person does this, then he deserves to suffer a painful torment. بِظُلْمٍ (or to do wrong), Mujahid said, To do some bad action therein. This is one of the unique features of Al-Haram, that the person who is about to do some evil action should be punished if this is his intention, even if he has not yet commenced the action. Ibn Abi Hatim recorded in his Tafsir that Abdullah (i.e., Ibn Mas`ud) commented about the Ayah, وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ (and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong), If a man intends to do some evil action therein, Allah will make him taste a painful torment. This was also recorded by Ahmad. I say, (its) chain is Sahih according to the conditions of Al-Bukhari, and it is more likely Mawquf than Marfu`. And Allah knows best. Sa`id bin Jubayr said, Insulting a servant and anything more than that is (counted as) wrongdoing. Habib bin Abi Thabit said: وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ (and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong), Hoarding (goods) in Makkah. This was also the view of others. وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ (and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong), Ibn Abbas said, This was revealed about Abdullah bin Unays. The Messenger of Allah sent him with two men, one of whom was a Muhajir and the other from among the Ansar. They began to boast about their lineages and Abdullah bin Unays got angry and killed the Ansari. Then he reverted from Islam (became an apostate) and fled to Makkah. Then these words were revealed concerning him: وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍ (and whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong), meaning, whoever flees to Al-Haram to do evil actions, i.e., by leaving Islam. These reports indicate some meanings of the phrase evil actions, but the meaning is more general than that and includes things which are more serious. Hence when the owners of the Elephant planned to destroy the House (the Ka`bah), Allah sent against them birds in flocks, تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍ مِّن سِجِّيلٍ فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَّأْكُولِ Striking them with stones of Sijjil. And He made them like (an empty field of) stalks (of which the corn has been eaten up by cattle). (105:4-5) means He destroyed them and made them a lesson and a warning for everyone who intends to commit evil actions there. Hence it was reported in a Hadith that the Messenger of Allah said: يَغْزُو هَذَا الْبَيْتَ جَيْشٌ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِبَيْدَاءَ مِنَ الاَْرْضِ خُسِفَ بِأَوَّلِهِمْ وَاخِرِهِم This House will be attacked by an army, then when they are in a wide open space, the first of them and the last of them will be swallowed up by the earth Building of the Ka`bah and the Proclamation of the Hajj This is a rebuke to those among Quraysh who worshipped others than Allah and joined partners with Him in the place which from the outset had been established on the basis of Tawhid and the worship of Allah Alone, with no partner or associate. Allah says: وَإِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لاِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مَكَانَ الْبَيْتِ And (remember) when We showed Ibrahim the site of the House (saying): Allah tells us that He showed Ibrahim the site of the `Atiq House, i.e., He guided him to it, entrusted it to him and granted him permission to build it. Many scholars take this as evidence to support their view that Ibrahim was the first one to build the House and that it was not built before his time. It was recorded in the Two Sahihs that Abu Dharr said, I said, `O Messenger of Allah, which Masjid was the first to be built?' He said, الْمَسْجِدُ الْحَرَام (Al-Masjid Al-Haram) . I said, `Then which?' He said, بَيْتُ الْمَقْدِس (Bayt Al-Maqdis). I said, `How long between them?' He said, أَرْبَعُونَ سَنَة (Forty years). And Allah says: إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ لَلَّذِى بِبَكَّةَ مُبَارَكاً Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah), full of blessing, (3:96) until the end of following two Ayat. Allah says: وَعَهِدْنَأ إِلَى إِبْرَهِيمَ وَإِسْمَـعِيلَ أَن طَهِّرَا بَيْتِىَ لِلطَّأيِفِينَ وَالْعَـكِفِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ and We commanded Ibrahim and Ismail that they should purify My House for those who are circumambulating it, or staying (I`tikaf), or bowing or prostrating themselves. (2:125) And Allah says here: أَن لاَّ تُشْرِكْ بِي شَيْيًا Associate not anything with Me, meaning, `Build it in My Name Alone.' وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِيَ and sanctify My House, Qatadah and Mujahid said, And purify it from Shirk. لِلطَّايِفِينَ وَالْقَايِمِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ for those who circumambulate it, and those who stand up, and those who bow, and make prostration (in prayer). means, `and make it purely for those who worship Allah Alone, with no partner or associate.' What is meant by those who circumambulate it is obvious, since this is an act of worship that is done only at the Ka`bah and not at any other spot on earth. وَالْقَايِمِينَ (and those who stand up), means, in prayer. Allah says: وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ and those who bow, and make prostration. Tawaf and prayer are mentioned together because they are not prescribed together anywhere except in relation to the House. Tawaf is done around the Ka`bah and prayer is offered facing its direction in the majority of cases, with a few exceptions, such as when one is uncertain of the direction of the Qiblah, during battle and when praying optional prayers while traveling. And Allah knows best وَأَذِّن فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ And proclaim to mankind the Hajj, meaning, `announce the pilgrimage to mankind and call them to perform pilgrimage to this House which We have commanded you to build.' It was said that Ibrahim said:O Lord, how can I convey this to people when my voice will not reach them It was said:Call them and We will convey it. So Ibrahim stood up and said, O mankind! Your Lord has established a House so come on pilgrimage to it. It is said that the mountains lowered themselves so that his voice would reach all the regions of the earth, and those who were still in their mothers' wombs and their fathers' loins would hear the call. The response came from everyone in the cities, deserts and countryside, and those whom Allah has decreed will make the pilgrimage, until the Day of Resurrection: At Your service, O Allah, at Your service. This is a summary of the narrations from Ibn Abbas, Mujahid, Ikrimah, Sa`id bin Jubayr and others among the Salaf. And Allah knows best. This was recorded by Ibn Jarir and by Ibn Abi Hatim at length. يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالاًأ وَعَلَى كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel, This Ayah was used as evidence by those scholars whose view is that Hajj performed on foot by those who are able, is better than Hajj performed riding, because the phrase on foot is mentioned first, and because it is an indication of their keenness and resolve. Waki` narrated from Abu Al-`Umays from Abu Halhalah from Muhammad bin Ka`b that Ibn Abbas said, I do not regret anything except for the fact that I wish I had performed Hajj on foot, because Allah says, يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالاًأ (They will come to you on foot). But the majority are of the view that performing Hajj while riding is better, following the example of the Messenger of Allah, because he performed Hajj riding, although his physical ability was sound. يَأْتِينَ مِن كُلِّ فَجٍّ they will come from every Fajj, means every route, as Allah says: وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا فِجَاجاً سُبُلً and We placed therein Fijaj for them to pass. (21:31) عَمِيقٍ `Amiq, means distant. This was the view of Mujahid, Ata', As-Suddi, Qatadah, Muqatil bin Hayan, Ath-Thawri and others. This Ayah is like the Ayah in which Allah tells us how Ibrahim prayed for his family, فَاجْعَلْ أَفْيِدَةً مَّنَ النَّاسِ تَهْوِى إِلَيْهِمْ So fill some hearts among men with love towards them. (14:37) There is no one among the Muslims who does not long to see the Ka`bah and perform Tawaf, people come to this spot from every corner of the world Hajj Brings benefits in this World and in the Hereafter Allah says: لِيَشْهَدُوا مَنَافِعَ لَهُمْ That they may witness things that are of benefit to them, Ibn Abbas said, Benefits in this world and in the Hereafter. Benefits of the Hereafter includes Allah's pleasure. Material benefits in this world include sacrificial animals and trade. This was also the view of Mujahid and others, that the benefits come in this world and in the Hereafter. This is like the Ayah: لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَن تَبْتَغُواْ فَضْلً مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ There is no sin on you if you seek the bounty of your Lord. (2:198) وَيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَّعْلُومَاتٍ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّن بَهِيمَةِ الاَْنْعَامِ and mention the Name of Allah on appointed days, over the beast of cattle that He has provided for them (for sacrifice). Shu`bah and Hushaym narrated from Abu Bishr from Sa`id from Ibn Abbas, The appointed days are the ten days (of Dhul-Hijjah). Al-Bukhari narrated this with a disconnected chain in a manner denoting his approval of it. Something similar was narrated from Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari, Mujahid, Qatadah, Ata', Sa`id bin Jubayr, Al-Hasan, Ad-Dahhak, Ata' Al-Khurasani and Ibrahim An-Nakhai. Al-Bukhari recorded from Ibn Abbas that the Prophet said: مَا الْعَمَلُ فِي أَيَّامٍ أَفْضَلَ مِنْهَا فِي هَذِه No deeds are more virtuous than deeds done on these days. They said, Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah! He said, وَلَا الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ يَخْرُجُ يُخَاطِرُ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ فَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ بِشَيْء Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah, unless a man goes out risking himself and his wealth for the sake of Allah, and does not come back with anything. Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn Umar said, The Messenger of Allah said: مَا مِنْ أَيَّامٍ أَعْظَمَ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَلَاا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ الْعَمَلُ فِيهِنَّ مِنْ هَذِهِ الاْاَيَّامِ الْعَشْرِ فَأَكْثِرُوا فِيهِنَّ مِنَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّحْمِيد There are no days that are greater before Allah or in which deeds are more beloved to Him than these ten days, so increase your Tahlil, Takbir, and Tahmid during these days. Al-Bukhari said, Ibn Umar and Abu Hurayrah used to go out in the marketplace during the ten days and say Takbir, and the people would say Takbir when they said Takbir. These ten days include the day of `Arafah. It was recorded in Sahih Muslim that Abu Qatadah said, The Messenger of Allah was asked about fasting on the day of `Arafah, and he said, أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيَةَ وَالاْتِيَة I hope by Allah that it will be an expiation for the previous year and the coming year. These ten days include the day of An-Nahr (Sacrifice), which is the greatest day of Hajj, and it was recorded in a Hadith that it is the most virtuous day to Allah. عَلَى مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّن بَهِيمَةِ الاَْنْعَامِ over the beast of cattle that He has provided for them. means, camels, cattle and sheep, as Allah explained in Surah Al-An`am: ثَمَـنِيَةَ أَزْوَجٍ (eight pairs). (6:143) فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا وَأَطْعِمُوا الْبَايِسَ الْفَقِيرَ Then eat thereof and feed therewith the poor having a hard time. It was recorded that when the Messenger of Allah offered his sacrifice, he commanded that part of each animal should be taken and cooked, and he ate some of the meat and drank some of the broth. فَكُلُوا مِنْهَا (Then eat thereof), Hushaym narrated from Husayn, from Mujahid, This is like the Ayat: وَإِذَا حَلَلْتُمْ فَاصْطَـدُواْ But when you finish the Ihram, you may hunt. (5:2) فَإِذَا قُضِيَتِ الصَّلَوةُ فَانتَشِرُواْ فِى الاٌّرْضِ Then when the (Jumu`ah) Salah (prayer) is ended, you may disperse through the land. (62:10) This was the view favored by Ibn Jarir in his Tafsir. الْبَايِسَ الْفَقِيرَ (the poor having a hard time). Ikrimah said, This means the one who is in desperate need whose poverty is apparent, and the poor person who is too proud to ask others for help. Mujahid said, The one who does not stretch forth his hand (to ask for help). ثُمَّ لْيَقْضُوا تَفَثَهُمْ Then let them complete their prescribed duties, Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said, This means ending Ihram by shaving one's head, putting on one's ordinary clothes, trimming one's nails and so on. This was also reported from him by Ata' and Mujahid. This was also the view of Ikrimah and Muhammad bin Ka`b Al-Qurazi. ... وَلْيُوفُوا نُذُورَهُمْ and perform their vows, Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said, this means any vows made about sacrificing a camel. ... وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا بِالْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ and circumambulate the `Atiq House. Mujahid said, This means the Tawaf which is obligatory on the day of Sacrifice. Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Abu Hamzah said, Ibn Abbas said to me:`Have you read in Surah Al-Hajj where Allah says: وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا بِالْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ (and circumambulate the `Atiq House). The end of rituals is the Tawaf around the `Atiq House.' I say, this is what the Messenger of Allah did. When he came back from Mina on the day of Sacrifice, he began with stoning the Jamrah, stoning it with seven pebbles, then he offered his sacrifice and shaved his head, then he departed and circumambulated the House. In the Two Sahihs it was recorded that Ibn Abbas said, The people were commanded to end their visit to the Ka`bah by circumambulating the House, but menstruating women are exempt from this. بِالْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ (the `Atiq House) the area from behind Al-Hijr, because this was originally part of the Ka`bah built by Ibrahim, but the Quraysh excluded it from the House (when they had to rebuild it) because they were short of funds. The Messenger of Allah included it in his Tawaf and said that it is part of the House. He did not acknowledge the two Shami corners, because they were not built precisely upon the original foundations of Ibrahim. Qatadah narrated that Al-Hasan Al-Basri commented on the Ayah, وَلْيَطَّوَّفُوا بِالْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ (and circumambulate the `Atiq House), Because it is the first House established for mankind. This was also the view of Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam. It was recorded that Ikrimah said, It was called Al-Bayt Al-`Atiq because it survived (U`tiqa) from the flood at the time of Nuh. Khusayf said, It was called Al-Bayt Al-`Atiq because it was never conquered by any tyrant. The Reward for avoiding Sin Allah says: ذَلِكَ Such (is the Pilgrimage): `This is what We have commanded you to do in the rituals (of Hajj), and this is the great reward that the person who does that will gain.' وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ حُرُمَاتِ اللَّهِ and whoever honors the sacred things of Allah, means, whoever avoids disobeying Him and does not transgress that which is sacred, and regards committing sin as a very serious matter, فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّهُ عِندَ رَبِّهِ then that is better for him with his Lord. means, he will attain much good and a great reward for doing that. Just as the one who does acts of obedience will earn a great reward, so too, the one who avoids sin will earn a great reward. Cattle are Lawful Allah says: وَأُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ الاْأَنْعَامُ إِلاَّ مَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ The cattle are lawful to you, except those (that will be) mentioned to you. means, `We have made permissible for you all the An`am (cattle etc.),' and Allah has not instituted things like Bahirah or a Sa'ibah or a Wasilah or a Ham. إِلاَّ مَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ except those mentioned to you. the prohibition of; Al-Maytah, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which Allah's Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering (that which has been slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allah, or has been slaughtered for idols) and that which has been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by the goring of horns -- and that which has been (partly) eaten by a wild animal -- unless you are able to slaughter it (before its death) - and that which is sacrificed (slaughtered) on An-Nusub. This was the view of Ibn Jarir, who recorded it from Qatadah. The Command to shun Shirk and Lying Allah says: فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الاْاَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ So shun the Rijis of the idols, and shun false speech. From this it is clear what Ar-Rijs means, i.e., avoid the abomination, which means idols. Shirk is mentioned in conjunction with false speech, as in the Ayah: قُلْ إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ رَبِّيَ الْفَوَحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَالاِثْمَ وَالْبَغْىَ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ وَأَن تُشْرِكُواْ بِاللَّهِ مَا لَمْ يُنَزِّلْ بِهِ سُلْطَـناً وَأَن تَقُولُواْ عَلَى اللَّهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ Say:(But) the things that my Lord has indeed forbidden are; Al-Fawahish (immoral sins) whether committed openly or secretly, sins (of all kinds), unrighteous oppression, joining partners with Allah for which He has given no authority, and saying things about Allah of which you have no knowledge. (7:33) This includes bearing false witness. In the Two Sahihs it was reported from Abu Bakrah that the Messenger of Allah said: أَلَا أُنَبِّــيُكُمْ بِأَكْبَرِ الْكَبَايِرِ Shall I not tell you about the worst of major sins? We said, Yes, O Messenger of Allah. He said: الاِْشْرَاكُ بِاللهِ وَعُقُوقُ الْوَالِدَيْنِ . : أَلَا وَقَوْلُ الزُّورِ أَلَا وَشَهَادَةُ الزُّور and indeed giving false statements, and indeed bearing false witness... and he kept on repeating it until we wished that he would stop. Imam Ahmad recorded that Khuraym bin Fatik Al-Asadi said, The Messenger of Allah prayed As-Subh (Al-Fajr), and when he had finished, he stood up and said: عَدَلَتْ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ الاِْشْرَاكَ بِاللهِ عَزَّ وَجَل Bearing false witness is on a par with the association of others with Allah. Then he recited this Ayah: فَاجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الاْاَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ حُنَفَاء لِلَّهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِ So shun the Rijs of the idols, and shun lying speech. Hunafa' Lillah, not associating partners unto Him; Allah says حُنَفَاء لِلَّهِ Hunafa' Lillah, means, sincerely submitting to Him Alone, shunning falsehood and seeking the truth. Allah says: غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِ not associating partners unto Him; Then Allah gives a likeness of the idolator in his misguidance and being doomed and being far away from true guidance, and says: وَمَن يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا خَرَّ مِنَ السَّمَاء and whoever assigns partners to Allah, it is as if he had fallen from the sky, meaning, فَتَخْطَفُهُ الطَّيْرُ the birds caught him in midair, أَوْ تَهْوِي بِهِ الرِّيحُ فِي مَكَانٍ سَحِيقٍ or the wind had thrown him to a far off place. means, remote and desolate, dangerous for anyone who lands there. Hence it says in the Hadith of Al-Bara': إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ إِذَا تَوَفَّتْهُ مَلَيِكَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَصَعِدُوا بِرُوحِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَلَ تُفْتَحُ لَهُ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ بَلْ تُطْرَحُ رُوحُهُ طَرْحًا مِنْ هُنَاك When the angels of death take the soul of the disbeliever in death, they take his soul up to the heaven, but the gates of heaven are not opened for him; on the contrary, his soul is thrown down from there. Then he recited this Ayah. The Hadith has already been quoted in our explanation of Surah Ibrahim. Allah gives another parable of the idolators in Surah Al-An`am, where He says: قُلْ أَنَدْعُواْ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَنفَعُنَا وَلَا يَضُرُّنَا وَنُرَدُّ عَلَى أَعْقَـبِنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَانَا اللَّهُ كَالَّذِى اسْتَهْوَتْهُ الشَّيَـطِينُ فِى الاٌّرْضِ حَيْرَانَ لَهُ أَصْحَـبٌ يَدْعُونَهُ إِلَى الْهُدَى ايْتِنَا قُلْ إِنَّ هُدَى اللَّهِ هُوَ الْهُدَى Say: Shall we invoke others besides Allah, that can do us neither good nor can harm us, and shall we turn back on our heels after Allah has guided us -- like one whom the Shayatin have made to go astray in the land in confusion, his companions calling him to guidance (saying):`Come to us.' Say:Verily, Allah's guidance is the only guidance. (6:71 Explanation of the Udhiyyah and the Sha`a'ir of Allah Allah says: ذَلِكَ Thus it is, وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ شَعَايِرَ اللَّهِ and whosoever honors the Sha`a'ir of Allah, means, His commands. فَإِنَّهَا مِن تَقْوَى الْقُلُوبِ then it is truly from the Taqwa of the hearts. This also includes obeying His commands in the best way when it comes to offering sacrifices, as Al-Hakam said narrating from Miqsam, from Ibn Abbas: Honoring them means choosing fat, healthy animals (for sacrifice). Abu Umamah bin Sahl said: We used to fatten the Udhiyyah in Al-Madinah, and the Muslims used to fatten them. This was recorded by Al-Bukhari. In Sunan Ibn Majah, it was recorded from Abu Rafi` that the Messenger of Allah sacrificed two castrated, fat, horned rams. Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah recorded from Jabir: The Messenger of Allah sacrificed two castrated, fat, horned rams. It was said, The Messenger of Allah commanded us to examine their eyes and ears, and not to sacrifice the Muqabilah, the Mudabirah, the Sharqa, nor the Kharqa'. This was recorded by Ahmad and the Sunan compilers, and At-Tirmidhi graded it Sahih. As for the Muqabilah, it is the one whose ear is cut at the front, Mudabirah is the one whose ear is cut at the back, the Shurqa is the one whose ear is split, as Ash-Shafi`i said. The Kharqa' is the one whose ear is pierced with a hole. And Allah knows best. It was recorded that Al-Bara' said, The Messenger of Allah said: أَرْبَعٌ لَاتَجُوزُ فِي الاَْضَاحِي الْعَوْرَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ عَوَرُهَا وَالْمَرِيضَةُ الْبَيِّنُ مَرَضُهَا وَالْعَرْجَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ ظَلَعُهَا وَالْكَسِيرَةُ الَّتِي لَااتُنْقِي Four are not permitted for sacrifice: those that are obviously one-eyed, those that are obviously sick, those that are obviously lame and those that have broken bones, which no one would choose. This was recorded by Ahmad and the Sunan compilers, and At-Tirmidhi graded it Sahih. The Benefits of the Sacrificial Camels Allah says لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَافِعُ In them are benefits for you, meaning, in the Budn (sacrificial camels) you find benefits such as their milk their wool and hair, and their use for riding. لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَافِعُ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى In them are benefits for you for an appointed term, Miqsam reported that Ibn Abbas said: Until you decide to offer them as a sacrifice. It was recorded in the Two Sahihs from Anas that; the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a man driving his sacrificial camel and said, ارْكَبْهَا (Ride it). The man said, It is a sacrificial camel. He said, ارْكَبْهَا وَيْحَك Ride it, woe to you! (the second or third time). According to a report recorded by Muslim from Jabir, the Messenger of Allah said: ارْكَبْهَا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ إِذَا أُلْجِيْتَ إِلَيْهَا Ride it gently according to your needs. ثُمَّ مَحِلُّهَا إِلَى الْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ and afterwards they are brought for sacrifice to the `Atiq House. meaning, they are eventually brought to the `Atiq House -- which is the Ka`bah -- as Allah says: هَدْياً بَـلِغَ الْكَعْبَةِ an offering, brought to the Ka`bah. (5:95) وَالْهَدْىَ مَعْكُوفاً أَن يَبْلُغَ مَحِلَّهُ and detained the Hady, from reaching their place of sacrifice. (48:25 Rites of Sacrifice have been prescribed for every Nation in the World Allah tells: وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنسَكًا And for every nation We have appointed religious ceremonies, Allah tells us that sacrifice and shedding blood in the Name of Allah has been prescribed for all nations. Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said, وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنسَكًا (And for every nation We have appointed religious ceremonies), Festivals. Ikrimah said, Sacrifices. وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ جَعَلْنَا مَنسَكًا And for every nation We have appointed religious ceremonies, Zayd bin Aslam said, This means Makkah; Allah did not appoint religious ceremonies anywhere else for any nation. لِيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَهُم مِّن بَهِيمَةِ الاَْنْعَامِ that they may mention the Name of Allah over the beast of cattle that He has given them for food. It was recorded in the Two Sahihs that Anas said, The Messenger of Allah brought two fat, horned rams; he said Bismillah and Allahu Akbar, then he put his foot on their necks. فَإِلَهُكُمْ إِلَهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَلَهُ أَسْلِمُوا And your God is One God, so you must submit to Him Alone. Your God is One, even though the Laws of the Prophets may vary and may abrogate one another. All of the Prophets called mankind to worship Allah Alone with no partner or associate. وَمَأ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلاَّ نُوحِى إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ لا إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ أَنَاْ فَاعْبُدُونِ And We did not send any Messenger before you but We revealed to him (saying):None has the right to be worshipped but I, so worship Me. (21:25) Allah says: فَلَهُ أَسْلِمُوا (so you must submit to Him Alone), meaning, submit to His commands and obey Him in all sincerity. وَبَشِّرِ الْمُخْبِتِينَ And give glad tidings to the Mukhbitin. Mujahid said about Mukhbitin, Those who find contentment in their faith. Ath-Thawri said, Those who find contentment in their faith and who accept the decree of Allah and submit to Him. It is better to interpret it by what comes next, which is الَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِرَ اللَّهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ Whose hearts are filled with fear when Allah is mentioned, meaning, their hearts fear Him. وَالصَّابِرِينَ عَلَى مَا أَصَابَهُمْ and the patient who bear whatever may befall them, meaning, of afflictions. وَالْمُقِيمِي الصَّلَاةِ and who perform the Salah, they fulfill the duties which Allah has enjoined upon them, the duty of performing the obligatory prayers. وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ and who spend out of what We have provided for them. the good provision which Allah has given them. They spend on their families and servants, and on the poor and needy; they treat people kindly while remaining within the limits set by Allah. This is in contrast to the hypocrites, who are the opposite of all this, as we have discussed in the Tafsir of Surah Bara'ah; to Allah be praise and blessings.
