_*He also knew that in performing the hardest or the greatest tasks one should not be proud of one’s attainment, but should, in all humility, pray to Allah ﷻ to accept the little effort one has been capable of making – and that, too, with the grace of Allah ﷻ Himself.*
▪ _In this ayah, the Prophet ﷺ  is being addressed to tell the people the story of Prophet Ibraheem and Isma’eel ‘alayhi salaam.
The Prophets of Allah were performing a good deed, yet they feared its acceptance. They did not take it for granted that since they are the chosen servants of Allah ﷻ their deed will certainly be accepted.

_What is our attitude after performing as ordinary a deed as our daily Salah?🤔_
▪ Ibn Abi Hatim narrated that Wuhayb bin Al-Ward recited the ayah and cried,
*“O Khaleel of Ar-Rahman! You raise the foundations of the House of Ar-Rahman (Allah), yet you are afraid that He will not accept it from you.”*.
_This is the behavior of the sincere believers, whom Allah ﷻ described in His statement.
*“And those who give that which they give with their hearts full of fear (whether it has been accepted or not).” [Al-Muminoon 23: 60]*

*Let's continue on this verse*👇.                           Al-Baqara : 128

*رَبَّنَا وَاجْعَلْنَا مُسْلِمَيْنِ لَكَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِنَآ أُمَّةً مُّسْلِمَةً لَّكَ وَأَرِنَا مَنَاسِكَنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ*

*Our Lord, and make us Muslims [in submission] to You and from our descendants a Muslim nation [in submission] to You. And show us our rites and accept our repentance. Indeed, You are the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.*

Prophet Ibraheem ‘alayhi salaam prayed to Allah ﷻ to make him and his son obedient to His commandments and to His Will.
▪ He has, all his life, been performing exemplary deeds of obedience, 👉and yet he prays to *‘be made’* obedient.
▪ The more one grows in one’s knowledge of Divine Majesty, the more one comes to realize that one is not being faithful and obedient as is due.
▪ Filled with fatherly love, he never failed to supplicate for his descendants.
▪ _In Prophet Ibraheem’s supplications there is a lesson for the average men....... *One should not only be concerned about their children’s physical well-being, but also their spiritual well-being*

Ibraheem‘alayhi salaam prayed to Allah ﷻ  to make a group from among his descendants fully obedient to Him.
*Four thousand years ago he made du’a for us!*🤗
_Point to Reflect:
▫️ _What du’as do we make for our children?_
▫️ _And how much do we remember others in our du’as?_
▫️ _ Are all our du’as about ourselves?_
_A beautiful du’a that appears in the Qur’an and should be made for a family’s spiritual well-being is:
*رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّـتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَاماً*
*“Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders of the Muttaqeen.” (25:74)*
___*PAGE 6*___.
✍️...

This type of supplication is allowed, because loving to have offspring who worships Allah ﷻ alone without partners is a sign of complete love of Allah.

*The Meaning of Manasik*
▪ The word manasik (the plural of Mansik) signifies the *different actions* involved in the performance of the Hajj,
and also the *different places* where the rites are performed – like ‘Arafah, Muzdalifah or Mina.
_Both the meanings of the word are intended here. The word arina [أَرِنَا] means ‘show us'.

▪ _It has been recorded that Angel Jibreel [Gabriel] descended and took Ibraheem ‘alayhi salaam to the House (Ka’abah) and said, “Raise its foundations.”_
▪ Jibreel ‘alayhi salaam held Prophet Ibraheem’s hand, led him to As-Safa and said, “This is among the rituals of Allah.”
▪ He then took him to Al-Marwah and said, “And this is among the rituals of Allah.”
▪ He then took him to Mina.
_until when they reached the ‘Aqabah, they found Iblees standing next to a tree.

▪ Jibril said, “Say Takbeer [Allah is the Great] and throw (pebbles) at him.”
_Ibraheem said the Takbeer and threw (pebbles at) Iblees._
▪ Iblees moved to the middle Jamrah, and when Jibreel and Ibraheem passed by him, Jibreel said to Ibraheem, “Say Takbeer and throw at him.”
_Ibraheem ‘alayhi salaam threw at him and said Takbeer.

_*The devious Iblees sought to add some evil acts to the rituals of Hajj, but he was unable to succeed.*
▪ Jibreel took Ibraheem’s hand and led him to Al-Mash’ar Al-Haram and ‘Arafat and said to him,
*“Have you ‘Arafta (known, learned) what I showed you?”*
_This was asked thrice._
Ibraheem ‘alayhi salaam said, “Yes I did.”.

*وَإِذْ جَعَلْنَا الْبَيْتَ مَثَابَةً لِّلنَّاسِ وَأَمْنًا وَاتَّخِذُوا مِن مَّقَامِ إِبْرٰهِۦمَ مُصَلًّى ۖ وَعَهِدْنَآ إِلٰىٓ إِبْرٰهِۦمَ وَإِسْمٰعِيلَ أَن طَهِّرَا بَيْتِىَ لِلطَّآئِفِينَ وَالْعٰكِفِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ*

*And [mention] when We made the House a place of return for the people and [a place of] security. And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Abraham a place of prayer. And We charged Abraham and Ishmael, [saying], "Purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer]*
