Prophet Muhammad (SalAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) used
to retreat to the cave just on the outskirts of Mecca to get away from the
crowds that were worshipping idols. Deep in his soul he knew that it was wrong
and he wanted to reflect and make sense of the life that is being played out in
his home city of Mecca. The cave at Hira not only gave him space to reflect but
it gave him a sanctuary from the madding crowd, and what he found inside the
cave was salvation. Like Prophet Ibrahim (Alayhi Salaam) Muhammad (SalAllahu
Alayhi Wa Sallam) knew that he had to get away from his forefathers who were worshipping
idols that had no life and could not even answer the cries of the supplicant.
Those who seek salvation must leave their world
behind and must enter the cave. Inside it is Islam, a world that is separate from
this Dunya. To achieve salvation one must live inside this cave and live
according to the laws that are contained within it. Here you can concentrate
100% in pleasing God and live a life that is pleasing to Him.
Enter the cave and join Muhammad (SalAllahu Alayhi
Wa Sallam) and be part of his final covenant with God Almighty. On entering all
you have to do is utter �Ashadu anla Illaha Illallah was ashadu anna Muhammdan
abduhu rasooluhu�. Once inside the cave, do what people who are already inside
is doing, that is praying, giving to charity, fasting and going on pilgrimage
to the House in Mecca if you are able to.
Given the choice of eternal salvation, what would
you choose? The cave or the world outside?
