EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Talhah bin 'Ubaidullah states that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) declared that performing the pilgrimage to Makkah known as Hajj is considered a form of jihad. Additionally, he stated that performing the lesser pilgrimage known as ‘Umrah is voluntary. This hadith emphasizes the importance of both pilgrimages in Islam and how they are both acts of worship for Muslims. It also highlights how one can choose to perform ‘Umrah or not whereas it is obligatory for Muslims to perform Hajj at least once in their lifetime if they are able to do so financially and physically. This hadith serves as an important reminder for Muslims about their religious obligations towards Allah Almighty and encourages them to strive towards fulfilling them with sincerity and devotion.
