Bismihi Ta’ala
Ahaadeeth and Sunnats of
Traveling
The reward for expenses
incurred for Hajj or ‘Umrah travels
36.) Nabi (Sallallaahu ‘alayhi waSallam) said : “The reward for spending for Hajj is
equivalent to the reward for spending in Jihaad; one (dirham or dinaar, etc) is
multiplied seven hundred times.”
[Hazrat Buraydah (RA)
]
37.) Nabi (Sallallaahu
‘alayhi waSallam) said: “Those traveling to perform Hajj and ‘Umrah
are the guests of Allah. He grants them what they ask for, answers their
supplications, and replaces what they had spent, one to a thousand fold.”
[Hazrat Abu
Hurairah(RA) ]
38.) Nabi (Sallallaahu
‘alayhi waSallam) said to Sayyidah Ayesha
(RA) during her ‘Umrah : ‘Your reward
will be according to the hardships endured and the expenses incurred (to
fulfill this obligation).”
Note :
The above Ahaadeeth indicate that the reward for spending for Hajj and ‘Umrah
is unlike that of normal charity. A person receives up to a thousand fold for
each penny spent in this cause.
