Hadees: Ibn-e-Majah 3122

It was narrated from ‘Aishah (R.A.) and Abu Hurairah (R.A.) that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wanted to offer a sacrifice, he brought two large, fat, horned, black-and-white, castrated rams. He slaughtered one on behalf of his Ummah, for whoever testified to Allah with monotheism and that he had conveyed (the Message), and he slaughtered the other on behalf of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad (ﷺ). Hadees: Ibn-e-Majah 3122 Chapters On Sacrifices
حَدَّثَنَا، َعنْ عَائِشَةَ،‏ وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ، اشْتَرَى كَبْشَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ سَمِينَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ مَوْجُوءَيْنِ، فَذَبَحَ أَحَدَهُمَا عَنْ أُمَّتِهِ لِمَنْ شَهِدَ لِلَّهِ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَشَهِدَ لَهُ بِالْبَلَاغِ، وَذَبَحَ الْآخَرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
حَدَّثَنَا، َعنْ عَائِشَةَ،‏ وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ، اشْتَرَى كَبْشَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ سَمِينَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ مَوْجُوءَيْنِ، فَذَبَحَ أَحَدَهُمَا عَنْ أُمَّتِهِ لِمَنْ شَهِدَ لِلَّهِ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَشَهِدَ لَهُ بِالْبَلَاغِ، وَذَبَحَ الْآخَرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
ام المؤمنین عائشہ اور ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہما سے روایت ہے کہ   رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم جب قربانی کا ارادہ فرماتے تو دو بڑے، موٹے سینگ دار، چتکبرے، خصی کئے ہوئے مینڈھے خریدتے، ان میں سے ایک اپنی امت کے ان لوگوں کی طرف سے ذبح فرماتے، جو اللہ کی توحید اور آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی رسالت کی گواہی دیتے ہیں، اور دوسرا محمد اور آل محمد صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی طرف سے ذبح فرماتے۔

Quran 2:172~173 (Surah al-Baqarah)

O believers! Eat from the good things We have provided for you. And give thanks to Allah if you ˹truly˺ worship Him ˹alone˺. He has only forbidden you ˹to eat˺ carrion (i.e. dead meat), blood, (the flesh of ) swine, and what is slaughtered in the name of any other than Allah. But if someone is compelled by necessity—neither driven by desire nor exceeding immediate need—they will not be sinful. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Quran 2:172~173 Surah al-Baqarah (The Cow)
Al-Baqara, alternatively transliterated Al-Baqarah (Arabic: البقرة, ’al-baqarah; lit. “The Heifer” or “The Cow”), is the second and longest chapter (surah) of the Quran. It consists of 286 verses (āyāt) which begin with the “muqatta’at” A.L.M.

یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُلُوا۟ مِن طَیِّبَـٰتِ مَا رَزَقۡنَـٰكُمۡ وَٱشۡكُرُوا۟ لِلَّهِ إِن كُنتُمۡ إِیَّاهُ تَعۡبُدُونَ إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَیۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَیۡتَةَ وَٱلدَّمَ وَلَحۡمَ ٱلۡخِنزِیرِ وَمَاۤ أُهِلَّ بِهِۦ لِغَیۡرِ ٱللَّهِۖ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَیۡرَ بَاغࣲ وَلَا عَادࣲ فَلَاۤ إِثۡمَ عَلَیۡهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِیمٌ
The surah encompasses a variety of topics and contains several commands for Muslims such as enjoining fasting on the believer during the month of Ramadan; forbidding interest or usury (riba); and several famous verses such as The Throne Verse, Al-Baqara 256, and the final two or three verses. The surah addresses a wide variety of topics, including substantial amounts of law, and retells stories of Adam, Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses). A major theme is guidance: urging the pagans (Al-Mushrikeen) and the Jews of Medina to embrace Islam, and warning them and the hypocrites (Munafiqun) of the fate God had visited in the past on those who failed to heed his call.
اے لوگو جو ایمان لائے ہو، اگر تم حقیقت میں اللہ کی بندگی کرنے والے ہو تو جو پاک چیزیں ہم نے تمہیں بخشی ہیں اُنہیں بے تکلف کھاؤ اور اللہ کا شکر ادا کرو اللہ کی طرف سے اگر کوئی پابندی تم پر ہے تو وہ یہ ہے کہ مُردار نہ کھاؤ، خون سے اور سور کے گوشت سے پرہیز کرو اور کوئی چیز نہ کھاؤ جس پر اللہ کے سوا کسی اور کا نام لیا گیا ہو ہاں جو شخص مجبوری کی حالت میں ہو اور وہ ان میں سے کوئی چیز کھا لے بغیر اس کے کہ وہ قانون شکنی کا ارادہ رکھتا ہو یا ضرورت کی حد سے تجاوز کر ے، تو اس پر کچھ گناہ نہیں، اللہ بخشنے والا اور رحم کرنے والا ہے

Quran 22:26~30(P)

English: ‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏And ˹remember˺ when We assigned to Abraham the site of the House, ˹saying,˺ “Do not associate anything with Me ˹in worship˺ and purify My House for those who circle ˹the Ka’bah˺, stand ˹in prayer˺, and bow and prostrate themselves. Call ˹all˺ people to the pilgrimage. They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel from every distant path, so they may obtain the benefits ˹in store˺ for them, and pronounce the Name of Allah on appointed days over the sacrificial animals He has provided for them. So eat from their meat and feed the desperately poor. Then let them groom themselves, fulfil their vows, and circle the Ancient House.” That is so. And whoever honours the rituals of Allah, it is best for them in the sight of their Lord Quran 22:26~30 (partial) Surah al-Hajj
Named after the obligation of the pilgrimage to Makkah – The Hajj.
The word ‘Hajj’ is only mentioned once in this Surah, وَأَذِّن فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالًا وَعَلَىٰ كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ يَأْتِينَ مِن كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ “And proclaim to the people the Hajj [pilgrimage]; they will come to you on foot and on every lean camel; they will come from every distant pass -” [22:27]

The Surah reminds about the approaching end of the world, need for the firmness of faith to support the truth and to eradicate the evil. It talks about prayers, humbleness and sacrifice, respect of the Ka’bah, the House of Allah, and striving to defend the truth.
یاد کرو وہ وقت جب ہم نے ابراہیمؑ کے لیے اِس گھر (خانہ کعبہ) کی جگہ تجویز کی تھی (اِس ہدایت کے ساتھ) کہ "میرے ساتھ کسی چیز کو شریک نہ کرو، اور میرے گھر کو طواف کرنے والوں اور قیام و رکوع و سجود کرنے والوں کے لیے پاک رکھو اور لوگوں کو حج کے لیے اذنِ عام دے دو کہ وہ تمہارے پاس ہر دور دراز مقام سے پیدل اور اونٹوں پر سوار آئیں تاکہ وہ فائدے دیکھیں جو یہاں اُن کے لیے رکھے گئے ہیں اور چند مقرر دنوں میں اُن جانوروں پر اللہ کا نام لیں جو اُس نے انہیں بخشے ہیں، خود بھی کھائیں اور تنگ دست محتاج کو بھی دیں پھر اپنا میل کچیل دور کریں اور اپنی نذریں پوری کریں، اور اس قدیم گھر کا طواف کریں یہ تھا (تعمیر کعبہ کا مقصد) اور جو کوئی اللہ کی قائم کردہ حرمتوں کا احترام کرے تو یہ اس کے رب کے نزدیک خود اسی کے لیے بہتر ہے

Quran 67:12~15 (Ayah Al-Mulk)

Indeed, those in awe of their Lord without seeing Him will have forgiveness and a mighty reward. Whether you speak secretly or openly— He surely knows best what is ˹hidden˺ in the heart. How could He not know His Own creation? For He ˹alone˺ is the Most Subtle, All-Aware. He is the One Who smoothed out the earth for you, so move about in its regions and eat from His provisions. And to Him is the resurrection ˹of all˺. Quran 67:12~15 Surah al-Mulk (The Sovereignty, The Kingdom)
Al-Mulk (Arabic: الملك, “Sovereignty, Kingdom”) is the 67th chapter (surah) of the Quran, comprising 30 verses

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِینَ یَخۡشَوۡنَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلۡغَیۡبِ لَهُم مَّغۡفِرَةࣱ وَأَجۡرࣱ كَبِیرࣱ  وَأَسِرُّوا۟ قَوۡلَكُمۡ أَوِ ٱجۡهَرُوا۟ بِهِۦۤۖ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِیمُۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ  أَلَا یَعۡلَمُ مَنۡ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ ٱللَّطِیفُ ٱلۡخَبِیرُ  هُوَ ٱلَّذِی جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ ذَلُولࣰا فَٱمۡشُوا۟ فِی مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا۟ مِن رِّزۡقِهِۦۖ وَإِلَیۡهِ ٱلنُّشُورُ 
It talks about the greatness of Allah and beautiful universe that He has created. It reminds people that if they consider the laws of universe and travel in the land with open eyes, they will indeed see that this whole kingdom belongs to Allah and He controls everything.
Surah al-Mulk takes its name from the first Ayat, تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ “Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He is over all things competent -” [67:1].
(اور) جو لوگ بن دیکھے اپنے پروردگار سے ڈرتے ہیں ان کے لئے بخشش اور اجر عظیم ہے اور تم (لوگ) بات پوشیدہ کہو یا ظاہر۔ وہ دل کے بھیدوں تک سے واقف ہے بھلا جس نے پیدا کیا وہ بےخبر ہے؟ وہ تو پوشیدہ باتوں کا جاننے والا اور (ہر چیز سے) آگاہ ہے وہی تو ہے جس نے تمہارے لئے زمین کو نرم کیا تو اس کی راہوں میں چلو پھرو اور خدا کا (دیا ہو) رزق کھاؤ اور تم کو اسی کے پاس (قبروں سے) نکل کر جانا ہے
12 Verily those who fear their Lord unseen will have forgiveness and a great reward.
13-14 God knoweth all things
