Hajar: The Persevering Mother
Hajar in the Quran and the Ritual of the Sa'iBy Aira AuroraLength1h 19m
About this audiobook
Hajar: The Persevering Mother explores the story of Hajar as the Quran and Hadith present it: the leaving by Ibrahim in the barren valley, the seven runs between Safa and Marwah, the well of Zamzam, the raising of Isma'il, the connection to the Ka'bah and the sacrifice, and the legacy of the Sa'i as a ritual of the Hajj. The book covers the meaning of trust and effort, the relationship between the mother's faith and the son's character, and the transformation of a barren valley into the holiest place on earth.
