With the approaching day of Arafa – the corner of the Great Hajj – the questions are increasing about the virtues of the best day when the sun rose, which is the ninth day of the month of Dhu al -Hijjah.
Among the most prominent questions that were received through the “Days of God” program on Al -Jazeera directly, “Is there a specific time that has an advantage for supplication on the day of Arafa?”
The Islamic preacher, Dr. Omar Abdel -Kafi, replied, “Since the dawn of Arafat to the sunset, it is the time for the response of the supplication, so you may consider an hour.”
He explained that you should not deal with the day of Arafa as “a paper, a share that we pull at any hour?” And he indicated that God Almighty has hidden his pleasure in obeying him, so do not know which obedience is acceptable.
The story of the scientist and the Arab
And Abd al -Kafi narrated – in this regard – the story of the scholar and the Arab, and he said, “This is a scientist who is walking in the desert with a friend, so his friend realized the death and died, so the scientist looked for someone to pray with him, and he found a Arab man coming on a camel, so he said that my brother died and he stood next to him this Arab and performed the funeral prayer for him and his limits in the desert.”
He continued the story, saying, “Then this scientist slept on this night, and he saw in the vision that his owner is in heaven, he said: God willing, what did you reach this place?, He said: By the call of the Arab who prayed with you on me, so the scholar yearns to know what this Arab called for?
And he added, “The scholar said to the Arab: Remember me, and he answered: Yes, from the Friday I prayed with you on a friend of you, he said: What were you calling, replied: I pray for what? I own it but she), so God forgives the man. ”
Believe the intention and the purity of the heart
Dr. Abdel -Kafi concluded by confirming that “a person is sincere in intention and the purity of the heart, God willing, the Lord of the worlds, but does not come to time when the hour in which he calls is.
