Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The questioner:
The questioner says: In the noble verse
And complete the Hajj and 'umrahوَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
I hope you will clarify this verse, may Allah preserve you?

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. This verse is comprehensive and inclusive, despite its brevity and conciseness of wording. Allah the Exalted said:
And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allahوَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
al-Baqarah. It indicates two things. The first thing is completing Hajj and 'Umrah in accordance with the Prophetic Sunnah and in accordance with what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did, and his saying, "Take from me your rituals of Hajj." This is the first command. The second command is his saying, "for Allah," meaning purely for Allah, without any showing off or seeking reputation.
And no worldly desire, but rather it is for Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). This indicates two things in Hajj and in other matters, and in every deed. It is necessary that two conditions be present in it. The first condition is following the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in performing the deed, how he performs it according to the Sunnah of the Messenger?
(peace and blessings be upon him). The second command is sincerity for Allah, with no showing off, no seeking reputation, and no worldly desire, but rather the intention must be pure for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in his Hajj and 'Umrah. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
