The Story of Hajar: Uncovering Certainty in Uncertainty - Sh. Omar Suleiman | Lecture

[@fyfighter]

The sister translating to sign language is doing a great and rare job for Muslims with hearing loss , may Allah grant her Jannat Al-Ferdous :)

[@rada9748]

MaashaAllah I thought about Hajar a lot when I was doing sa'ee during Umrah a couple of years ago. Very emotional. Seeing all this men and women from all walks of life, rich and poor following in her footsteps. Doing what she did (the raml). A black, slave woman - often disregarded by the world and looked down upon, but whom الله سبحانه و تعالى honoured, so that it does not matter who your as a Muslim, whether you're a king or some other billionaire, part of your rituals of Hajj and Umrah, is to follow her actions. If الله سبحانه و تعالى raises you, then nothing else matters.

[@ubuhariali]

Jazakallah bikhair for this enlightenment

[@syazananana]

SubhanAllah I will be performing umrah in December InsyaAllah and this will be embedded in my head as I perform sa’i. May we be women as steadfast and as grounded in our iman as Hajar was.

How sad and heartbreaking the story behind this name hajar😭😭 the trust she put in Allah each and every time been tested, explain why Allah honoured her in front of muslims up until now. As a wife, a mother, ya Allah this is really heartbreaking.

[@davidfarley1902]

I am considered to Muslim people " people of the Book". This message is one that is truly anointed,&Sh Omar Suleimam Allah's humble servant , I will keep in my prayers. Peace !

[@khadijahidd3678]

Why do I feel like it is my first time hearing about Islam whenever I listen to these lectures? Maashaa ALLAH Barakallahu fiykum Yaqeen team

[@discounttenno4169]

Jazak Allahu Khayr Sh. Omar. In the book Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum (The Sealed Nectar): Biography of the Prophet (sAaw), I read that "It is popularly believed that Hajar was a slave girl, but the great scholar and writer Qadi Muhammed Sulieman Mansurpuri has indeed verified that she was not a slave but in fact the daughter of Pharaoh (Rahmutul-lil-'Alamin 2/36, 37: Tarikh ibn Khaldun 2/1/77)." Allah knows best, I'm just sharing what I read.

As I am watching this, to blow your mind, I just heard Yeshua say to me{not to take away from Hagar} in terms of lineage-"Dave, Go Back one step back. In Genesis "Let us make man, which the actual word is"mankind" hence male & female in our own Image & Likeness. Before Ibrahim was I AM!

I am not a scholar, but I've read a few biographies on the life of Rasulullah (saw). My concern is the disparaging light in which Hajjar is almost always portrayed. Why do the majority of scholars try to pass her off as Sara's "hand maiden"? And, either Martin Lings or Adil Salahi (I forget which) go so far as to say that the union of Ibrahim (as) and Hajjar happened because of Sara's prayer to God. (They both, in their respective books, label her a slave.) Other sources -- those I'm most apt to accept-- portray Hajjar as an Egyptian princess given by her father to Ibrahim (as) in marriage in order that she might be taught Islam. My acceptance of the latter version is purely intuitive. For I have found that more often than not, the more marginal story is the one that often proves to be true. Additionally, this world is one that seems to enjoy marginalizing people of African descent. So, it's not at all hard to imagine that this African woman-- Hajjar-- has suffered severe demotion over hundreds of years.

[@abdelrahmanelsayed3290]

I have a recent version of the sealed nectar (in Arabic) with new footnotes from scholars which includes the following: In the book "tareekh ibn khaldun" that there was a discussion between Amr Ibn al-Aas (RA) and the people of Egypt that hajar was the wife of one of the rulers in Egypt and her husband was killed in one of the wars and she was taken as a slave by a tyrant. This corroborates the hadith in Bukhari that Shaykh Omar Suleiman mentions. So yea she was originally a princess but was taken as a slave by that tyrant pharaoh and Allah freed her and made her the wife of Ibrahim (AS). So it's not disparaging her to say she was initially a slave girl but Allah wanted her to get married to Ibrahim (AS) and elevated her from the social status of being a servant. The tyrant in Egypt had enslaved her. Allah had freed her from slavery. She was initially at the service of sarah as the hadith mentions but then Allah eventually got her married to Ibrahim (AS). Just like He (swt) elevated the social status of someone like Ata ibn abi rabah who was initially at the service of Aisha (RA) as a servant then she noticed his ability to learn and freed him to go benefit people with his knowledge.

That etymology you have for the name Hagar/Hajar is a folk etymology; it's a false etymology. The name is derived from the Hebrew Bible and possibly means "flight/fleeing" in Hebrew, although it could also have an Egyptian origin.
