  • On the First Glimpse of the Kabah

When setting eyes upon the House, pilgrims should be conscious in his heart of the majesty of the House, venerating it with such intensity that they seems to anticipate beholding the Lord of the House.

They should hope that God, Exalted is He, will grant them the vision of His noble countenance, just as He has afforded them the sight of His mighty House. Thank God, Great and Glorious is He, for bringing you to this high degree, and for including you in the company of those who reach Him.

Remember at the same time how at the resurrection people will stream towards Paradise, all hoping to enter there, and how they will be divided into those who are admitted and those who are turned away, just as the pilgrims are divided into the accepted and the rejected.

In all that you see, take care to recall the things of the Hereafter, for every aspect of the greater Pilgrimage reflects some aspect of the Hereafter.
