.:: Umrah ::.
More pics in here
Alhamdulillah I have returned from my 12 days of umrah together with 10 other family members....
Syukur, everything went well... It was an amazing and theraputic experience indeed...
Syukur, everything went well... It was an amazing and theraputic experience indeed...
There were many occasions I shed my tears and amongst which;
I cried the 1st time I heard the unison of voices reciting 'Amin' in my 1st subuh at Masjidil Nabawi...
I cried when I managed to pray in the 1st row at Raudhah after going thru a sea of women....
I cried when I conducted my last visit at Makam Rasulallah before leaving Madinah for Mecca....praying to Allah not to make this my last visit to the Makam....
I cried upon I laid my eyes on the Majestic Ka'abah for the 1st time.....It was a stunning view indeed....after all these years, this is the Ka'abah, the direction for the whole Islamic world to head to when we conduct our five time prayers a day....
I cried after kissing the Hajar Aswad twice during my stay at Mecca...
And I cried when I conducted my Tawaf Wada' (the goodbye tawaf before leaving Mecca), again praying hard to Allah not to make this my last visit, instead hoping for more visits to come to perform more Umrahs and my Haj perhaps....
Although it was physically tiring with the lack of sleep, never had I felt so contented, so serene and so much closer to Allah.... It was beyond description of feelings and atmosphere....
Highly recommended for all Muslims who has the financial ability....You will find your peace and serenity over there, insya Allah...
One day, with God's will I will return to Mecca & Madinah again...Insya Allah
