Prophet Abraham four makkah Journeys meeting Ismaeel building Kabah the Allah House

Authentic Resources indicates that Abraham Alahissalam used to go to Makkah  to see his wife and son Ismaeel. The number of these journeys may be four ones. (Refrence AR Raheeqal Makhtoom/The sealed nectar).


ABRAHAM DREAM and SACRIFICE......
Ibraheem Alaihissalam saw, in his
dream, that he slaughtered his son,......................
Allah says in Quran
 "Then, when they had both submitted themselves (to the Will of All? ), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (or on the side of his forehead for
slaughtering); and We called out to him: "O Abraham! You have fulfilled the dream (vision)!" Verily! Thus do we reward the Muhsin? (good-doers, who perform good deeds totally for All? ’s sake only, without any show off or to gain praise or fame, etc. and do them in accordance to All? ’s Orders). Verily, that indeed was a manifest trial — and We ransomed him with a  great sacrifice (i.e. a ram)" [37:103-107]


ONE JOURNEY TO MAKKAH.............. 
The sequence of the story of the sacrifice of Ishmael shows that it really happened before Ishaq’s birth, and that Allah’s Promise to give Abraham another son, Ishaq,(Isaac) came after narration of the whole story. This story spoke of one journey – at least – before Ishmael became a young man.


Second Third and Fourth Journey.............
Al-Bukhari, on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbas, reported the other three journeys; a summary of which goes as follows: When Ishmael became a young man, he learned Arabic from tribe Jurhum and married a woman of same tribe.
 Having wanted to see his wife and son again.
1. Abraham Visit.......Change the Doorstep.........

 Abraham came to Makkah, after Ishmael’s marriage, but he didn’t find him at home.
He asked Ishmael’s wife about her husband and how they were doing. She complained of poverty,and misery so he asked her to tell Ishmael to change his doorstep. Ishmael understood the message, divorced his wife and got married to the daughter of Mudad bin ‘Amr, chief of the tribe of Jurhum. [Qalb Jazeerat Al-Arab, p 230]


2. IBRAHIM ADVICE....KEEP DOORSTEP....
Once more, Abraham came to see his son, but again didn’t find him at home. He asked his new wife the same previous question, to which she thanked Allah and made shukr that everything is going well. Abraham asked her to tell Ishmael to keep his doorstep (i.e. to keep her as wife) and went
back to Palestine.........
3.ABRAHAM...... MEETS........... ISMAEEL.....
A third time, Abraham came to Makkah .......this time found and meet Ishmael near Zamzam. 
The meeting, after a very long journey of separation, was very touching for a father so affectionate and a so dutiful and righteous son.
FATHER and SON Duo Built the House of Allah .................................


This time, father and son built Al-Ka‘bah and raised its pillars, and Abraham, in compliance with Allah ’s Commandment, called unto people to make pilgrimage to it. (Refrence Ar Raheeqal Makhtoom/The sealed Nectar by Hazrat Safiur Rahman Mubarakpuri)
(May Allah accept us for sacrifices for Deen of Allah)

Islam Emaan Yaqeen and Correct belief internal treasure for Muslim

IMAAN/CORRECT BELIEF

Allah has kept the secret of total success of human beings upon the human's internal treasures, success and failure is another name for the human internal condition.

 Success and failure is not a name of external shapes and objects. Dignity and dishonour, happiness and problems, tranquillity and anxiety, health and disease, are human being's internal conditions.

The improvement and deterioration of these conditions is not related to external shapes and materials.

Allah can bring disgrace even in the presence of kingdom and wealth, and he can bring honour even in the state of dire poverty. A human's internal treasure is his yaqeen (Faith), and his a’mal (action); if his inner actions are good then Allah will create a state of inner success, even if material possession is totally exhausted.

Allah is the creator and owner of everything and every being of this universe. He made everything with his own power. Everything has been created by Allah. He is the creator and he is not created. And whoever is created is incapable of creating.

Whatever is made by Allah is under Allah’s. He owns everything. He uses everything and Allah can change shapes of everything by his power and he can change their qualities without changing their shapes.

 He can change a stick into a snake and a snake into a stick. Similarly he controls everything whether land (kingdom) or wealth, electrical or gaseous. He uses these things as he likes. He can bring about destruction from the means of creations and he can show creation from the means of destruction.

He runs the system of sustenance. If he wishes he can sustain somebody in a barren desert without any source of material and he can spoil life even in the midst of plenty of materials.

The prophet hadhrat Muhammad S.A.W brought many ways from Allah by which one can gain closeness with Allah and one can derive benefit directly from the power of Allah.

When these ways are adopted in our life, Allah will grant success in every shape and condition.

La ilaha illallah demands a change of our faith and zazba, (thoughts, temperament), and our ways. Just by changing the yaqeen (faith) Allah has promised a paradise many times the size of this universe. Allah will subdue (bring under our control) all those materials from which we have changed our faith.

To acquire this yaqeen/belief in our life:

Adab(way) of Ta'lim(listening to Quran and hadith): Etiquette observed in Taleem in mosque,House and in Khuruj Fi Sabilillah(in the Path of Allah)

Adab(way) of Ta'lim(listening to Quran and hadith):
The main aim of ta'lim is: 
that our heart should  get inspired by quran and sunnah,gain beneficial knowledge and be ready to practice the gained knowledge.

There are two things here:
1. our heart should understand the importance of quran and sunnah
2. By listening to virtues and punishments we should build connection between the knowledge we have and what we implement i.e we must be able to do a deed when we listen to virtues and stop from bad deed when we listen to punishments

Adab
1. we should sit with wazu
2. we should sit with the importance of quran and hadith
3. we should listen with concentration
4. we should sit with intention that what ever we are listening inshallah we will implement them
5. we should sit with intention that we will spreaad what ever we are listening to others

-we should read each verse and hadith for 3 times, so that we understand it properly and it is sunnah (bukhari vol.1)

-we should read only what is written in book and should not give any self explanation unless meaning of word is not understood

-and when ever we hear the name of prophet mohammed(s.a.s) we should read sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

House Taleem is important tool to bring family members on Islamic life and Dawah

Making the home a place for the remembrance of Allaah

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The likeness of a house in which Allaah is remembered and the house in which Allaah is not remembered is that of the living and the dead, respectively.”

We must make our homes places where Allaah is remembered in all kinds of ways, whether in our hearts, verbally, during prayer, by reading Qur’aan, Discussion and Planning for Dawah,For Hijrah and Nusrah. So That female and Children become helpful in Islamic Dawah.


BARKAH OF TALEEM AT HOME
Hadhrat Umar(R.A.) was on his way to take the life of Rasulullah(sallallaahu alaaiyhi wassallam) when he was told that his sister had also embraced lslam. In fury, he turned to his sister's house. T'hey were busy conducting Taleem. With the barakah (blessing) of this taleem, Hadhrat Umar(R.A.) was blessed with lmaan. Where is taking the life of Rasulullah(sallallaahu alaiyhi wassallam and where is being blessed with Imaan and becoming Khalifat-ut-Muslimeen - all with the barkat of Taleem.


HOW TO DO 

Etiquette of Taleem Halaqa


Objective
The main purpose of Taleem is to discuss the virtues of different good deeds, how much and what rewards he/she will get from Allah if he/she will perfonn certain good deed. 


At the same time what punishment he/she will receive if any obligatory amal is missed. Read the books of fazaiVvirtues such as Muntakhab Ahadith Fazail-e-Amal or Reazus Salehin.


The goal is to read again and again to:
1. Create respect and greatness of the sayings of Allah and His Rasul.
2. Create finn Yaqin/faith on the promises and punishments of Allah .
3. Put into actions whatever heard/learned and give Da'wah.

Virtues 
1. Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says: Best amongst you is one who is either learning or
teaching Quran. (Bukhari).

2. Allah forgives sins.

3. Angels join those sittings in Taleem up to the end.

4. Allah asked Rasul to sit in places where Allah's zikr is conducted.

5. Anyone goes out to learn and dies during his her trip/journey, he/she becomes a myrter.
6. Leaning one area of Fard is better than 1000 rakats ofnafl saIat.


Adab ofTaleem
1.This taleem should be collective - the family members should preferably all sit together and let as many participants read a kitaab as is possible.


2.Choose amost suitable time for term, i.e. when it is most suitable to every individual, perhaps before or after supper. This collective taleem/supper will have a good added advantage of the family meeting and uniting which is of vital importance but unfortunately is falling away or has fallen away already.
