In ayah 27 of surah Hajj, God commands the Iconoclast Abraham to proclaim among the people to rush towards the Symbolic House of God to perform Hajj. That’s why Prophet Abraham stood and called loudly, “O people! God has called on you to perform Hajj; so, hurry up towards the Ka’aba!” People heard his voice around the globe and joyfully said, Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk.
