WHY WE GO ROUND THE KAABAH 7 TIMES

 *_DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER_*

Yaum al-ithnayn | 2nd day of Dhul-Ḥijjah, 1447 AH | Tuesday, 19th May 2026. *_WHY WE GO ROUND THE KAABAH 7 TIMES_*. BismilLahir Rahmanir Raheem. 


Let's continue with our studies as to; Why Seven Times Specifically. The number seven appears repeatedly in Islamic worship and creation: Seven Heavens, Seven Earths, Seven Rounds of Ṭawāf,

Seven Circuits between Ṣafā and Marwah, Seven pebbles in stoning the Jamarāt.

ALLAH Azzawajal chose this number in many acts of worship. The precise wisdom is not fully known because the reason was not revealed by ALLAH Azzawajal, but Muslims follow it because ALLAH Azzawajal and HIS Messenger ﷺ prescribed it. This is an important principle in Islam: Acts of worship are based on revelation, not human invention but as Muslims we follow what ALLAH Azzawajal and HIS Messenger have requested us to do. 

The Prophet ﷺ performed ṭawāf seven times and instructed the Ummah to follow his rituals.

He said:

“Take your rites of Hajj from me.” — Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim.


In Summary

Ṭawāf around the Ka‘bah:

originates from the worship established by Abraham (AS),

was restored by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, symbolizes unity, submission, and devotion to ALLAH Azzawajal, mirrors heavenly worship, and is performed seven times because ALLAH Azzawajal legislated it through revelation.

It is not idol worship, but one of the purest manifestations of Tawḥīd, directing the heart, body, and soul entirely toward ALLAH Azzawajal. *_May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

THE EXPIATION

 FAJR REMINDER: THE EXPIATION! By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 3, 1447 (21-April-2026) Do you know how to live a good life and die upon goodness? I mean the deeds of expiation that help a person meet Allāh free from sins, as pure as the day they were born. Some people may imagine that this is achieved by repeating Astaghfirullāh a million times, praying hundreds of Rak‘āt without even facing the Qiblah, or locking themselves in a dark room for a year while engaging in invented forms of Dhikr. No—this is not the way. Rather, the path is what the Prophet (ﷺ) taught. Ibn Abbās (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhuma) said Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: “My Lord came to me tonight in the most beautiful form (I think he said, in a dream). He (Allāh) said, ‘O Muḥammad, do you know what the chiefs on high (the Angels) disputed about?’ I said, ‘No.’ He put His Hand between my shoulder-blades and I could feel its coolness on my chest (or just beneath my throat), then I knew everything that is in the heavens and on e...
