لَوْ تَرَكَ النَّاسُ الْحَجَّ لَمَا نُوظِرُوا الْعَذَابَ أَوْ قَالَ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَذَابُ.
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that if people neglect al-Hajj they will not be given any chance to avoid the coming of torment upon them, or that he said, ‘torment will come upon them/”
ذَكَرْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع الْبَيْتَ فَقَالَ لَوْ عَطَّلُوهُ سَنَةً وَاحِدَةً لَمْ يُنَاظَرُوا[1].
‘If people neglect it one year, they will not be given any chance to avoid the coming of torment upon them.’”
كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ص يَقُولُ لِوُلْدِهِ يَا بَنِيَّ انْظُرُوا بَيْتَ رَبِّكُمْ فَلَا يَخْلُوَنَّ مِنْكُمْ فَلَا تُنَاظَرُوا.
‘My sons, take the House of your Lord in your consideration so it is not left without your presence therein; otherwise, you will risk coming of torment upon you.”’
لَا يَزَالُ الدِّينُ قَائِماً مَا قَامَتِ الْكَعْبَةُ[3].
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that religion (al-Islam) will continue to exist as long as al-Ka‘bah is maintained.”
