Hazrat Jaabir R.A. says I heard the Messenger of Allah say: ‘zamzam is a cure for any purpose for which it is being drunk’.
Another Hadith states: ‘If you drink it to quench a thirst, it will do so, and if you drink it to fill stomach in place of food, it will do so, and if you drink it for a cure from some illness, it will do so. This is the service of Hazrat Jibraeel A.S. and it is the way of Hazrat Ismail A.S. (Ithaaf)
Hazrat Abu Hurairah R.A. reports that Rasulullah Sal’am said: ‘Seventy angels are placed over the Ruknul Yamaani. When anyone says: ‘O Allah, grant me pardon and safety from danger and sin in this world and in the hereafter; Our Lord grant us the righteous of this world and of the hereafter, and save us from the punishment of hell”, then they say: ‘Aameen’. The Ruknul Yamaani is also a very blessed corners of the Ka’ba. The Ruknul Yamaani is also a very blessed place.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah R.A. reports that Rasulullah (Salallaho Alaihi Wassallam) said: “whoever sets forth in a journey to perform Hajj and passes away on route, for him shall be written the reward of a Haaji until the day of Qiyaamat; and whoever sets forth to perform Umrah and passes away on route, for him shall be written the reward of a Mu’tair until Qiyaamat; and whoever sets forth on a journey to fight in the way of Allah and passes away on route, for him shall be written the reward of a Mujaahid until the day of Qiyaamat.”
Such is the reward of Hajj. We look at two further Ahaadith in this respect. In Targheeb we read: “When a person sets forth to perform Hajj or Umrah and passes away on route, he shall not be brought (before Allah) for judgment, nor will he have to give account. It shall be said to him: “Enter into Paradise.” (Targheeb)
Hazrat Ibn Abbaas R.A. reports that Rasulullah Sal’am said: “whoever desires to perform Hajj, should hasten towards performing i.” (this Hadith encourages the performing of Hajj as soon as is possible after having made sincere intentions towards it, as was said by Rasulullah (Salallaho Alaihi Wassallam)).
In another Hadith it has been stated: “Hasten to perform your obligatory Hajj, for one knows not what shall happen (to prevent it).” (Targheeb)
In one Hadith it is stated: “Make haste to perform Hajj, because one knows not what lies ahead. Perchance illness may overtake you or some other necessity (may demand your attention). (kanz)
Hazrat Aayesha R.A reports that she once sought permission from Rasulullah (Salallaho Alaihi Wassallam) to go for Jihaad. Rasulullah(Salallaho Alaihi Wassallam) replied: “You Jihaad is Hajj.”
At another time Hazrat Aayesha R.A.. asked Rasulullah Sal’am whether is Jihaad is also obligatory on females. He replied: “Yes, such Jihaad, wherein there shall he no killing. Your Jihaad is Hajj and Umrah.”
Hazrat Hussein R.A. reports that a man came to Rasulullah Sal’am saying: “O Rasulullah Sal’am, I am a weak person having little courage.”
Rasulullah Sal’am said: “come, I shall show you such a Jihaad wherein no thorn shall prick you (no injury) and that is Hajj.” (Targheeb)
Hazrat Jaabir R.A. reports that Rasulullah Sal’am said: “A Hajji never becomes poor and destitute.”
By the way of further elucidation, we quote another Hadith. Rasulullah Sal’am said: “performing Hajj and Umrah many time drives away poverty.” In another Hadith it is stated that: “Continuous Hajj and Umrah prevents a Muslim from leaving this life with a bad ending, and keeps away poverty.”
In one Hadith it is mentioned: “Perform Hajj and become rich, travel and become healthy.” In other words, change the air, places and weather, often bring about better health. This has been experienced time and again.
