The first construction of Baitullah Sharif after Hazrat Adam (PBUH) was done by Syedna Ibrahim (PBUH). Most of the rituals, ie the members of Hajj and other conditions are attributed to Ibrahim (as). Then Aqa (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) prescribed the method of Hajj with some modifications.
The central and key position of Hazrat Ibrahim (as) in performing the rituals and members of Hajj and the duties and Sunnah. The reasons for this are as follows:
The First Reason:
The present history, which is more or less four and a half thousand years old, started from the time of the Prophethood of Abraham. The earlier period is called the prehistoric period due to the lack of a safe record of events.
Our source of information about the period from Adam (peace be upon him) to Abraham (peace be upon him) is nothing but the books of Samawiyya and the scriptures. However, keep in mind that the source of information about ancient events is the holy heavenly books. There is the Gospel and the Torah.
Which are no longer valid and trustworthy due to distortions and additions. There are so many contradictions in them. That it is not possible to use them in relation to the health or non-health of an event. Therefore, now we have the source and means of checking the authenticity of ancient events only the Holy Qur’an and the hadiths of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
The reality of Hajj is unknown to most of us and the events of the period before the resurrection of Abraham are hidden from the eyes of historians and historians and their focus is on the history after Abraham. Therefore, it is fair to say that in the present history of the world. The personality of Hazrat Ibrahim (as) is undoubtedly central and fundamental, and the period before that is historically obscure.
Second Reason:
Another important reason for the centrality of Abraham (peace be upon him) is his being a prophet. A study of the history of religions shows that one of the sons of Abraham was Isaac. From whom Hazrat Yaqub (as) was born. His son was Hazrat Yusuf (as), whose story is specially mentioned in the Qur’an al-Hakim from them to Jesus. All the prophets have the privilege of being the descendants of Abraham.
The title of Hazrat Yaqub (as) was Israel, which means servant of Allah. That is why your descendants are called the Children of Israel. A great number of prophets were sent from among the children of Israel. Abraham’s second son was Ishmael, from their descendants, none other than the last of the Prophets. The Holy Prophet (PBUH), who was exalted above prophethood.
Third Reason:
The third main reason for the centrality of Hazrat Ibrahim (as) is the honor and privilege of being the ancestor of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). The Holy Prophet (PBUH) used to mention him with great pride by saying ‘Abi Ibrahim’. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) has declared his resurrection as the result of Abrahamic prayers and good tidings.
Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) is seen in his prayers in the court of Yazdi praying that O Allah! Create in my offspring those who are steadfast in your worship and obedience and worship day and night and finally. While constructing the walls of the Kaaba with the help and cooperation of his promising and happy young son Ishmael (as), this prayer fell on his lips. O, Allah! From the back of this son of mine, send the Prophet of the End Times. Whose existence Masood is the cause of the creation of the universe and on whose head the crown of the mercy of the worlds will be placed till eternity.
Fourth Reason:
The fourth main reason for the centrality of Hazrat Ibrahim (as) is that he was subjected to successive trials and tribulations in order to fulfill his position of prophethood. It is certain that the greater the position, the greater the ordeal that will befall this person. Since Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) had the unparalleled privilege of being the ancestor of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). He was also endowed with the unique essence of prophetic insight and ability, and leadership.
The distinguishing feature of the personality of Hazrat Ibrahim (as) is that he single-handedly challenged the false forces of polytheism and atheism and on this basis. He became the first forerunner of the bi-national ideology which Decided. Thus, four thousand years ago today, Hazrat Ibrahim (PBUH) learned the formation of the divine government against falsehood with the devotion of his late example of determination and love of purpose, and Jump without fear or danger.
