Sacrifice and Submission: The Struggle of Prioritizing Allah's Will - Maulana Syed Muhammad Rizvi

- Eidul Adhaa is the celebration of sacrifice.
- Prophet Ibrahim's success in submitting to the will of God is commemorated during Eidul Adhaa.
- Prophet Ibrahim is closely connected to Muslims as he is described by Allah as a sincere Muslim.
- "Islam" means submission to the legislative will of God, and "Muslim" refers to a person who submits to God's will.
- Muslims are facing pressure to abandon their essence of servitude to Allah and prioritize their desires.
- Those who prioritize their desires over Allah's decisions are criticized in the Quran.
- The tendency to worship one's desires is being forced on Muslims through the education system, media, and workplaces.
- Muslims should reflect on this challenge and protect themselves from deviation.
- The true meaning of Eidul Adhaa is sacrificing one's ego and desires.
- It involves prioritizing Allah's will in personal, family, social, community, business, and political aspects of life.
- Sacrificing ego and desires is not easy; individuals must confront internal and external obstacles.
- The ritual of Hajj symbolizes the struggle against deviation and evil.
- Muslims must confront both internal and external challenges in their perpetual struggle.
- The phrase "قد أفلح من زكيها و قد خاب من دسها" signifies the success of purification and the failure of corruption.
