[18].Surah Al-Kahf [The Cave]: Ayat 66-68


 
Ayat 66. Mûsa [PBUH](Moses) said to him (Khidr) "May I follow you so that you teach me something of that knowledge (guidance and true path) which you have been taught (by Allah)?"
Ayat 67. He (Khidr) said: "Verily! You will not be able to have patience with me!
Ayat 68. "And how can you have patience about a thing which you know not?"
[Tafseer] (Moses {PBUH} said unto him: May I follow thee) may I keep your company, (to the end that thou mayst teach me right conduct of that which thou hast been taught) that you may teach me guidance and that which is right? (He said) O Moses {PBUH} : (Lo! thou canst not bear with me) for you may see me doing something that you will not be able to bear. When Moses said he will be able to bear anything, Khidr said: (How canst thou) O Moses {PBUH} (bear with that whereof thou canst not compass any knowledge) that the explanation of which you have not been given?   

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Whoever performs Hajj (pilgrimage) and does not have sexual relations (with his wife), nor commits sin, nor disputes unjustly (during Hajj), then he returns from Hajj as pure and free from sins as on the day on which his mother gave birth to him.'' [Al-Bukhari Book 02, Chapter 26, Hadith # 596]. 
Lesson : This Hadith brings out the following points: The true meanings of "Rafath'' sexual intercourse but it also signifies obscene and frivolous talk and the expression of sexual desire to one's wife. Since coition with one's wife is forbidden during Hajj, so conversation with her on this subject or talking for amusement is also disliked. "Fisq'' means disobedience of Allah and quarrelling with people. One must avoid both of them during Hajj. The Hajj which is performed with all these restrictions, has the merit that one is totally purged of sins. But this purification is from sins which come in the category of minor sins and which relate to the Rights of Allah. Major sins relating to the Rights of Allah and lapses in respect of the rights of people are not pardoned without sincere repentance and compensation to the aggrieved.
