- Abstract
This comprehensive study examines al-hadyu and al-udhiyyah sacrifice rituals within the framework of the major objectives of the Hajj tradition. The research aims to shed light on the profound role these rituals play in Islam, transforming them from a symbol of showmanship, association, and arrogance during the era of Jahiliyya (pre-Islamic period of ignorance) into a manifestation of monotheism, gratitude, and remembrance of the Creator. Employing a meticulous research methodology, this study explores the historical context surrounding al-hadyu and al-udhiyyah rituals, analyzing their evolution and transformation under the influence of Islam. The researcher highlights the authentic scriptural references from the holy Quran and Sunnah, emphasizing the rituals' significance and their role in shaping the ethical and theological identity of Muslims. Additionally, the study underscores their contribution to the cultivation of virtuous manners that uplift individual spirits and foster self-dignity, ultimately contributing to the establishment of a peaceful, stable, and secure society. Furthermore, this research brings attention to recent civilizational advancements in the execution of these rituals, particularly exemplified by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's initiative to harness the potential of alhadyu and al-udhiyyah rituals. The study examines the impact of this initiative on achieving the objectives of Shari'a (Islamic law) and its vital role in preserving the sanctity of places of worship, ensuring their cleanliness, and safeguarding them against harm and corruption. The research is structured into an introduction, three sections covering the historical context, the significance of the rituals, and their impact on social cohesion, and a conclusion summarizing the findings. The outcomes of this study hold significant implications for the international community, as it contributes to a deeper understanding of the transformative power of religious rituals in fostering unity, cooperation, and the promotion of noble values across cultures and societies.
