Hajj Productivity Series: The miracle of Zamzam (Part 1)

[زبیدہ عزیز]

​

Today we move to a different Hajj story; the story of Hajar (May Allah be pleased with her) and her son Ismaeel (Peace be upon him).

Ibrahim (Peace be upon him) woke up one day and asked Hajar to prepare herself and baby Ismail for a long travel. Ibrahim and Hajar kept walking, crossed a fertile land followed by barren mountains till they arrived at the Arabian desert. Ibrahim brought Hajar to a high hill called al-Marwa, made her and her baby sit under a tree, placed a bag of dates and some water near her, and simply walked away.

You can imagine Hajar’s reaction at this, she ran after him and said: “Are you going to leave us in this desert where there is no one to keep us company?” She repeated this many times but he would not look back at her. Finally she asked: “Has Allah ordered you to do so?” He said ‘yes’. She replied, “Then He will not neglect us.”

This story teaches us a very beautiful lesson: When Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) is testing you, you need to have this belief that Allah will not forsake you. You’re a Muslim, you believe in Him, He’ll not forsake you. Do your best in all your endeavors regardless of the trials you’ll face, and Allah will not forsake you.

This feeling of certainty in Allah’s help will boost your productivity when you feel like giving up
