Pilgrims urged to shun vices during hajj
The Intending Muslim Pilgrims have been advised to desist from all sorts of worldly exercises capable of destroying their faith and be more committed to the work of Allah while in the holy land.
Amir-ul-Hajj, Osun State Muslim Pilgrims’ Welfare Board, Barrister Zikrullahi Olakunle Hassan, gave the advice during the enlightenment programme organised for 2016 Intending Pilgrims in the State.
Hassan who urged the intending pilgrims to pray for the development of the state and Nigeria at large also charged them to exercise patience when they get to holy land of Mecca and Medinah.
He assured them that all arrangements have been put in place to ensure a successful hajj such as conducive hotel accommodation, free meals, free hiram clothes and others.
He then thanked Governor Rauf Aregbesola for his unalloyed support for the board.
In his lecture, Dr K.K Busari, emphasized the essence of patience while in holy land.
Quoting copiously from the holy Quran 39v10, 2v 155-157 and Q12 v 83 where Allah enjoined Prophet Ibrahim to be patient while performing hajj, pilgrims need to follow the procedure and rites of hajj as would be guided by Ullamahs in order to earn good reward from Allah.
