Hajj
Hajj and Consolidation of Unity Among The Muslims
part 2
Convene the Hajj pilgrims of different countries, discuss the problems of the Muslims and the expediencies of Islam and take decisive actions for elimination of problems. Study the ways to establish unison among all Muslim sects and groups, and in the case of political affairs that are common amongst them all; find remedies for the problems that are brought forth by the obstinate enemies of Islam, worst of which is sowing the seeds of dispute among the lines of Muslims.
As you all know, during the recent centuries, the ones who stirred the fire in this battle field were the world plunderers of the East and West who are afraid of the one billion Muslim population, and constantly try to stir up the disputes among Muslim peoples, with all their might and with the aid of their perverted agents, in order to dominate over the destinies of the world Muslims, rule over them and plunder their infinite resources.
What is the remedy today? What are the Muslims and the deprived people of the world to do, to overthrow these idols? The one fundamental remedy that will uproot all the entanglements and burn up corruption and perverseness is the unison of not only the Muslims but also all the deprived and the en-chained people of the world, and this unity on which the exalted Islam and the holy Qur'an insist must be secured through extensive propagation and the center of this propagation and summons is the dignified Mecca during the congregation of the Hajj pilgrims, a summons that began by Abraham, the Friend of God (Lit., KHALILOLLAH) and Mohammad (PBUH), the Beloved of God (Lit., HABIBOLLAH) and shall be followed by his holiness, the Remnant of God (Lit., BAQIYATOLLAH), may our souls be sacrificed to his sacred steps, during The End of Time. Abraham, the friend of God was commanded to convene the people from all parts, to congregate all to intuit their expediencies, the expediencies of the community; the political, the social, the economical and the cultural ones; to come and see how you, as their prophet, willingly sacrificed your most valuable fruit of life, and then admit that all human beings must emulate you. You who overthrew all the idols and dismissed from your mind all, except God, whatsoever, the sun, the moon, the figures, the animals and/or the human beings. You truthfully said it when you said:
And all must emulate to the father of monotheism and the father of the dignified prophets. In the Sura: Repentance (Lit., Towbah), which is commanded to be cited at the general congregation at Mecca, we read: A proclamation, from God and His Messenger, unto makind on the day of the Greater Pilgrimage: 'God and His Messenger are disgusted of the idolaters.
The heart of "Miqat" is beating with anxiety to welcome the pilgrims arriving from the country of "No East, No West" (Lit., LA SHARQIYAH VA LA GHARBIYAH), to respond to God's invitation to the right path, by their "LABBY , LABBEYK" utterance, and by kicking against the eastern and western schools and nationalistic perversions, eliminate any traces of schismatism, and sympathize with all nationalities, regardless of their colors or ethnic distinctions, consolidate the unity among all Muslims and fight against the enemies of humanity and the world mongers and despots, unitedly.
