Sunan Ibn Majah 2902 (Book 25, Hadith 21) #32256
The Spiritual Jihad of Hajj

SUMMARY: Hajj is an important form of Jihad for those who are unable to fight in physical battles.

It was narrated from Umm Salamah that the Messenger of Allah said: "Hajj is the Jihad of every weak person".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ الْحُدَّانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ الْحَجُّ جِهَادُ كُلِّ ضَعِيفٍ

TOPICS

QUICK LESSONS:
Perform acts of worship such as hajj with devotion and sincerity.

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith states that the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (ﷺ) said that Hajj is the spiritual jihad for those who are weak and unable to fight in physical battles. This means that even if a person cannot physically participate in a battle, they can still contribute to the cause by performing the pilgrimage of Hajj. It is an act of worship and devotion which will be rewarded by Allah. This hadith also teaches us about equality; it does not matter how strong or weak we are, we all have something valuable to contribute towards our faith and beliefs. We should never feel discouraged or think that our efforts do not matter because every action counts when it comes to pleasing Allah.
