may Allah grant us hajj, ameen

[@w.m.aslam-author]

One of my favourite scholars. I’ve learned so much from the Shiekh over the last 15 years. May Allah protect him, ameen.

[@FJA95]

May Allah preserve Shaykh Abu Usamah. I was with him on Hajj this year and I make Dua to Allah that he rewards him abundantly for making my Hajj a journey of a lifetime!

[@rjayzdon9440]

Aameen

[@marwanahmed8062]

I would recommend his Sunday lecture to everyone.

[@christinearztmann7351]

As salamu aleikum Shaykh, I appreciate you being a down to earth muslim who is mentioning the truth facts of dunia as well as those of achirah! Masha Allah!

[@danny_muwahid]

May Allah preserve you brothers. Ameen

Allahumma Ameen

[@alphabangura7356]

His passion for the deen is infectious. The first time I heard him speak I brought my kids the next time he came to visit us

[@AllPraisebetoAllah60]

After performing hajj this hajj I completely agree with Shaykh Abu Usamah. I love hajj with all of the challenges that come with it. Hajj humbles you.

[@manuka7313]

One word ☝️ Maa Shaa Allaah!!!! ☺️

[@AbuAtiya]

Alhamdulillah. Always a pleasure to listen to the Shaykh. May Allah ta'Ala reward you both.

[@AishaBaseema]

Epic video, from start to finish...may Allah increase every Muslim in goodness towards each other and for our own selves, Ameen.

[@inspiretoawaken3641]

I was concerned for the sheikh but I was also smiling at how he described his walking experience and hugging the guy. This is something we never hear especially being that sheikh Abu Usamah is fit. The speech from the sheikh was an eye opener it really teaches you to prepare for hajj all we see is beautiful clips of hajj. May Allah make it possible for all of us who are yearning to perform hajj.

[@jaybeeonlinemarketing2018]

mashaAllah tabarak Allah. Thanks for the inspiration. May Allah bless you both - ameen

May Allah bless the shaykh Abu Usama and all the brothers and sisters of glm, ameen. Beautiful video.

[@goodlife8311]

Alhumdiallah I was able to complete Umrah and Hajj. Sheik is correct it can't be explained if when it is explained. Lots of beautiful things there but culturally lots of things over there I did not like and how certain pilgrims were treated. Allah knows best.

[@zee8382]

Love the shaykh for the sake of Allah, great podcast man masha'Allah. I wish it was longer honestly.

[@IRABAH]

May Allah reward u.

[@aisham1057]

SubhanAllah! جزاك الله خيرا Shaykh. I really appreciate your candor about your journeys to Hajj! Well explained! You are really a down to earth shaykh! ما شاء الله May الله make it easy for those who have not yet made Hajj! اللهم امين 🕋 ✈️

[@faay8912]

Not being able to go hajj at the minute due to health issues hearing this was so incredible and amazing 😢😮😊 it really got my imagination tinkering and I could picture myself there. I LOVE to walk sheikh its so fun I can walk for ever, when I went umrah last year I walked so much! I can't wait to go hajj if I could afford it I'd go every year walahi I notice my life change for the better everytime I go umrah I can't describe the success and mental peace that follows 😅alhamdulillah may Allah enable us all to go to his special home real soon! ❤❤

how many hajj has shaykh performed mashaallah may Allah take us again and again and again

I would prefer if the Sheikh's khutbah was an hour long, never mind 30 mins!

[@Watch_Dog_World]

Highest steps 42000 steps!! Was going to Big Zamarat for pebbles

[@Watch_Dog_World]

Then go to Mecca for Tawaf and safa marwaa and come back to mina

[@raz0051]

Anyone have any recommendation of any good reputable Hajj groups / organisations. Unfortunately I've just heard negative things from family who have been and had bad experiences, even some who have stolen all the money.

[@77moessa]

Go with green lane masjid. They have some kind of hajj group events. InshaaAllah I have intentions to go next year. InshaaAllah..!

I was catch cold got sick And around 5 kg wait lost

May Allah guide Abu Usamah away from ways of the Ikhwaanis and mumayi’ah

[@margaretbryan4820]

A fool is one who doesn't learn from the adversity of their former aggressors who disrespect the Glorious Quraan.

[@imrans2784]

We shouldnt moan like women about the sacrifices we have made in haj. After all, we are guests of Allah. And we should praise Allah for sending help to us rather than complain about aches and pains in our body

[@faay8912]

Hes just trying to explain the difficulties of hajj to give people a real understanding. Why do you have to look for and assume the negative likes hes there to just go with the intention to complain ? Subhanallah

[@abuusamahatthahabi5319]

@@faay8912 May Allah reward you @faay8912 for your words....

[@faay8912]

@@abuusamahatthahabi5319 Ameen I read something deep the other day brother ima just post it here cuase people need to understand this. The dangers of negative assumptions of your brothers and sisters will cost you your iman and poison you in the long run. Hopefully that brother who made that post can read this and reflect 🙂 If you're going to make assumptions about people, make good assumptions. Look, assumptions are just stories in your mind that you write (and you could write 100s of different stories), so why not write a nice story about others in your mind? Why insist on just one negative assumption story? If you think bad of people, they don't know what's in your head -- so you're only hurting yourself. Mean assumptions are just a poison that you drink yourself. So think good of people.

[@tali115]

Very poor service provided by guides & marketing agents that the Sheikh was with! They did not fulfil the trusts in terms of the rights of the pilgrims that they were responsible for on multiple occasions & additionally they did not offer any apologies for multiple failings due to avoidable negligence & poor organisation. The Shaikh covered up for the group leaders faults every time & blamed pilgrims instead who had genuine grievances about poor service standards😩😱

[@iymuslim]

Why don’t u message them privately instead of stirring fitnah

[@rasberrynostrawberry]

@@iymuslim they ignored ppl's grievances and put their heads in the sand every single time. Running away from problems is no way to deal with genuine issues. May Allah forgive us all for our shortcomings.

[@tali115]

They were given opportunities on multiple occasions to address issues & grievances but failed to do so. They then give sermons in public about the rewards of service to others during Hajj having not demonstrated what they preach🤔 Pilgrims were let down badly and the guides showed loyalty to their management & paymasters and not to the people they were accountable for. I have only raised this matter in public to warn others and to point out how recollections vary & differ depending upon who you show misplaced loyalty towards🤔

[@tali115]

Celebrity Shaykh culture and those who are afflicted by it and those who fall prey to it is the real fitan we should be worried about🤔😱

[@ninetieztwinz]

And this is why I'm terrified of performing Hajj. I hope I find a good Hajj provider (UK). May Allah make it easy for us all! Ameen

[@rasberrynostrawberry]

And the sheikh should also not have used filthy language in Mina. May Allah forgive us all.

[@Mnel5]

Please hear me out, good works could never save men or persuade Adonai. Our works could never cover our sins. As the prophet Isaiah said "our good works are like filthy rags". It might sound strange at first, but please listen 🙏🏼🙏🏽 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." - Romans 8:38-39 For God so loved the world that He gave His only son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. What we must do is turn from our sinful ways (repent) and put your faith and trust in the saviour Lord Jesus 🙌🏽🙌🏼 John 8:58 “Jesus answered them: 'I solemnly declare it: before Abraham came to be, I AM.” [This was the name God gave himself when he first communicated with Moses, Exodus 3:14 “God replied, 'I am who I am. ' Then he added, 'This is what you shall tell the Israelites: I AM sent me to you. '”] The Old Testament brings the foreshadowing of the Messiah Jesus Christ 🙌🏽🙌🏼 Psalm 22 Psalm 22:1 (Mark 15:33-34) Isaiah 52:13-14 Isaiah 53 Matthew 12:38-42 (Jesus refers to Jonah in the Old Testament) Genesis 22. If you read it you can see the foreshadowing of Jesus Christ the Son of God. (Genesis 22:2) Also, the ram God provided to Abraham to be sacrificed, after Abraham's faith was confirmed, represented the sacrificial death Jesus Christ was which God offered to the world, to free us from the penalty of sin, the power of sin, and the very presence of sin & to allow us to be made right with God. Because God is Holy & we are not because of sin, and God cannot be around sin. But through the ultimate sacrifice for sin in the form of the Son of God Jesus Christ the Messiah, we now can stand right before God and be with Him, because the penalty for our sins were paid in full. It is now our jobs to turn from our sins (repent) and to put our faith in Jesus Christ, for it is alone by the grace of God, through faith in the Son and what He has done that you are saved; it is the gift of God; not of our good works so that no one may boast. Refer to (Ephesians 2:8-9)
