ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends.
It took me some time in reflecting on the significance of Frankincense and Myrrh. I was wondering what the mystery about it was and why the Wise Men decided that it was as valuable as Gold as well as, as valuable as their Supplications to Allah (swt) for Blessings upon the Messiah. It was a simple, complex.
It is Tauhara for Ikhlas, and for Salaat. It was being used to purify the approach to Allah (swt). Allah (swt) will be repulsed by foul, odorous smells. But also, by the defilements of idolatry as in Ezekiel 8 when He leaves out the East Gate towards the East in Ezekiel 10.
Ezekiel or Dhul Kifli (epbuh) Ministered on the Zakaha as it pertains to the Holiness of the Place of Worship to God through Zakaha - Purification and Charity. But the Purification has under it, as if it is an umbrella, Ikhlas, Tauhid, Ihsan, Taqwa, and Yaqeen that we can easily infer by what happened between Ezekiel 8 and Ezekiel 10. All of that is under the umbrella of Zakaha or Purification. Allah (swt) said in Malachi that it can get to the point where the incense offerings can be a stench to His Smell.
Najas is something solidly covered in the Surah of Taubah on it being banished from approaching the Kaaba, Mecca, and that implies a banishment from Qiblah itself. Which just means that it is not a free and indefinite practice. It just can't be a prolonged and indefinite journey with Najas like a mobile gas and torture chamber. Tolerances cannot just be bankrupted in people regarding Najas as they align with the Qiblah. They might not think we notice, but many signs point to that they/we do.
It is so noticeable that we literally can rebuke the "no need to work (support trade and business with each other) anymore" theory solely on the need to purchase cleaning and maintenance supplies. Inside the body, outside the body, the home, yard, etc. The "we don't need to work" theory can be easily overruled on purification but that is not the only thing that Tauhara and Zakaha lead to. They also lead to Shifa or Healing from Allah (swt). Without Zakaha there really is no road to Heal. Because on the foundation of Healing is Zakaha and Tauhara and this is confimed in the Book of Ezekiel (epbuh and upon Nabi Muhammad and all other Anbiya I mention) in the passages towards the end on the River of Healing. But Tauhara and Zakaha are Integral to the Summons of Allah (swt). He'll leave the person(s) like at Ezekiel 10.
If we lose Tauhara and Zakaha then we lose the building blocks of Shifa itself. Shifa has within it, Classical Conditioning of positive reinforcement for positive behavior that Pavlov got from the Proverb of Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh) "If you continue to reward good with evil then evil will never leave your house." and no good will ever come to you. Classical Conditioning from Nabi Sulaimon (epbuh) is also an integral building block of Shifa or Healing. Last thing Frankincense and Myrrh cannot be burned within the house. Those resins will make everything in the house sticky including computer parts, mechanical devices, coat walls, tables, etc. But if you burn it outside you have to make sure that the winds do not set the grass or anything flammable on fire. I would sit the charcoal burner, not an electric, inside a metal mesh (holes) garbage can about the size for an office desk outside. Exact type I use in the last image. I always get 2 cans. 1 for recycling the other for charcoal burners. The holes stop any vortex action from wind lifting up problems, and from pushing over the garbage can which then lead to the charcoal being blown around.
