Greatness of Musjid ul Aqsaa
Venue: Masjid Taqwa, Pietermaritzburg
Aayat:سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَىٰ بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِّنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ لِنُرِيَهُ مِنْ آيَاتِنَا
Hadeeth :”Do not make a special journey, except to 3 masaajid. Musjid ul Haraam, Musjid un Nabawi ﷺ, and Musjid ul Aqsaa.”
Hadeeth:”Go to Aqsaa . If you can not, then at least send oil.”
Hadhrat Meimoona radhiallahu anhaa, despite being unable to go, when she heard the virtues became desirous of going.
A Brother in Aqsaa mentioned that the visiting of people is a source of himmat and support. There is barakah in this land. From a spiritual point of view: Ambiyaa alaihimussalaam lived around this Musjid. Sahaaba came to it. It is the only place on earth, where every Nabi gathered together at one moment and Nabi ﷺ made imaamat. Just behind Aqsaa is the dome of the rock. This spot from where Nabi ﷺ was taken up to the heavens. We must make a journey to this forgotten Haram.
