007.137 And We made a people, considered weak (and of no account), inheritors of lands in both east and west, - lands whereon We sent down Our blessings. The fair promise of thy Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because they had patience and constancy, and We levelled to the ground the great works and fine buildings which Pharaoh and his people erected (with such pride). 017.001 Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things). 021.071 But We delivered him and (his nephew) Lut (and directed them) to the land which We have blessed for the nations. These verses are talking about the blessed land of Palestine, where Allah has sent many blessings and many Prophets. Allah Azawajal took our beloved Rassulullah from the blessed city of Makkah on the night of Mira’j to show him this very holy city. This proves that Allah has made certain cities holy; He has made Palestine especially holy due to all the coming of countless Prophets to that very land. Palestine has been said to be holy because of the Prophet’s who lived there and who are buried there. Makkah and Madina are also said to be holy, as Madina is the place where Rasulullah ( may Allah bless him and grant him peace) is buried. Futhermore there are many lands where the Prophets and pious have lived and are buried, and it is for this reason that they are considered holy. If one was to make a supplication to Allah whilst at the graves of the Prophet’s and pious, the supplication would Insha’Allah be accepted quickly, as one would be at a holy place. SAYYIDINA ZAKARIYA (PEACE BE UPON HIM) SUPPLICATED TO ALLAH AT A HOLY PLACE 003.037 And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food) ? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will. 003.038 Then Zachariah prayed unto his Lord and said: My Lord! Bestow upon me of Thy bounty goodly offspring. Lo! Thou art the Hearer of Prayer. 130
These verses tell us that whenever Saayyidina Zakariya (peace be upon him) went to Sayida Maryam’s house, she was always blessed with food. This was because she was a blessed woman and her house was a blessed place. So Sayyidina Zakariya (peace be upon him) made supplication whilst he was at her house as he knew that it was a place of blessing and his supplication would be accepted quickly! This shows us the significance of a blessed place. THE MOUNTAINS AS-SAFA AND AL-MARWAH 002.158 Surely the Safa and the Marwa are among the signs appointed by Allah; so whoever makes a pilgrimage to the House or pays a visit (to it), there is no blame on him if he goes round them both; and whoever does good spontaneously, then surely Allah is Grateful, Knowing. In these verses, Allah has called the mountains Safa and Marwah His signs: places that are holy and special. He, Azawajal, has further made it essential to visit these mountains because Sayida Hajara (may Allah be pleased with her), walked between these two mountains in search of water and because the feet of Sayida Hajra (may Allah be pleased with her) touched the ground between the mountains, it is said to be holy. Now if that ground has become holy as a result of a pious person’s feet touching it, just imagine how holy those grounds must be where the entire bodies of the Prophet and pious are buried! SubahnAllah! A question may arise from this that, does this mean whatever ground the Prophets and pious have walked on, wherever their bodies have touched, are all these places and lands considered? The Prophets were sent all over the world to many communities, does this mean the whole world is holy land? We can answer this question by stating that the land where the Prophets and pious have been are considered to be holy. For example, the land of al- Sham, Syria, has been given a lot of recognition in the Qur’an. However at times when the Prophets and pious walked upon that land, Allah Most Merciful, particularly likes their walking, the way of their walking, their reason and intention of walking; so therefore it becomes of more value to Allah, such as in the case of Sayida Hajra (may Allah be pleased with her). Allah valued Sayida Hajar’s (m ay Allah be pleased with her) walking so much that he made it His sign, and a part of the Hajj. 131
