holy KaꜤbah fifty times, he will be free of his sins like the day he was born.”^[1]

*    The Greatest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, “Whoever performs seven circuits of ṭawāf in the rain, his previous sins are forgiven.”^[2]

Ṭawāf in the rain

Abu ꜤIqāl رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ states:

One day, I performed ṭawāf in the rain with Sayyidunā Anas b. Mālik     رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ. Once we completed it and offered two cycles of prayer next to the Station of Ibrāhīm, Sayyidunā Anas b. Mālik رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ said to us, ‘Start your deeds anew, for you have been forgiven. This is what the Messenger of Allah صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said to us when we performed ṭawāf with him in the rain.’^[3]

سُبْحٰنَ اللہ! Dear Islamic brothers! This is the great rank of the holy KaꜤbah! Hearts remain inclined towards it. Through its blessings, one can attain safety and cure from illnesses, and be protected from punishment on the Day of Judgement. Whoever seeks refuge in the holy KaꜤbah will attain it, and the action of performing ṭawāf is unique. Ten deeds are given, ten sins are forgiven and ten ranks are raised for every step someone takes during ṭawāf. May Allah Almighty grant us the opportunity to behold the holy KaꜤbah, cling to its cloth, kiss the black stone, pray in the Ḥaṭīm, and perform an abundance of ṭawāf.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ
