Re: Stoning the pillars/walls at Hajj.
The kind of martyrdom that one should seek is in Jihad…Not while on a pilgrimage…Martyrdom through and accident is just that, through and accident…Deliberately, it’s considered suicide…
Someone once asked a scholar, whether it is permissible to ask for death since one has performed Hajj and one is absolved of all sins…
The Shaikh gave a very nice reply…He said how would you know that your Hajj has been accepted that you should ask for death? Maybe you did something during the Hajj which nullified it and it wasn’t accepted…
But, there is a Dua which should be upon the lips of every Muslims…It is, that may Allah :swt: deliver me from this Earth when I am in the best of my states as a Muslim, (or something like that…I do not remember the exact Dua but this was context)…
Meaning, to take my life to Himself, when I am in the condition of most piety that I’ll ever be in…
And for the likes of you and me, that can only happen when our Hajj is accepted…And obviously, those that died, died **during **the Hajj…And those that die **during **te Hajj, they are considered as martyrs…
No matter how bad apples they may have been…
