As the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) praises the Kaaba while amongst his companions, who does he remember? He swears and says, “By the one who possesses the soul of Mohammed (PBUH) that the sacredness of the believer is greater than the Kaaba.” We need to look at the importance of valuing one another more. The Prophet Mohammed, he understood that a proper conception of religion means that your brothers and sisters in Islam is that their breath, their blood, their money and property, their honor and their dignity that when you are around them is like doing Tawaf around the Kaaba. Can any one of you imagine walking up to the Kaaba and not giving it a hug, embracing it and loving it and not protecting it? Can any of you just stand there and ignore the Kaaba? But we walk by one another every day! And Allah says we are a sacred sign of Allah, yet we pass by one another and ignore the fact that we try try to avoid each other. We are unfortunately estranged from one another simply because we have not allowed TAQWA to enter our heart.
