Finally....



   Finally, I was chosen by Allah as His guest to perform umrah. Thanks to my younger brother, Azman who fully sponsored me for this. To Saudi Arabia, we flew on 12 December 2015 by Kuwait Air. Our group consisted of 10 (5 males & 5 females including the determined blind male). My tears were keep flowing whenever I saw the Holy Baitullah or praying (solat & doa) just in front of Kaabah. O Allah! Do accept my umrah & ibadah in particular & the ibadah of my younger brother, Azman. After  a few days in the Holy City of Makkah, we then travelled to the second Holy City which is Medina.

   Besides performing the ibadahs in Masjidil Haram (where the Baitullah is located), we also visited the base of Jabal Nur, Jabal Rahmah & some places for hajj rituals. I joined another group to climb over to Hira’ Cave. In Medina, we visited the Uhud War site, Quba’ Mosque. I had a chance to jointly carry a body to Baqi’ Cemetery just besides the Masjidil Nabawi. In these two mosques (Masjidil Haram & Masjidil Nabawi), a special prayer (for dead people) is always performed following  compulsory (wajib) prayers. My tears were also keep running down whenever I recited a prayer (doa) at the grave of Rasulullah s.a.w. I also visited the graves of Saiyidina Abu Bakar As-Siddiq & Saiyidina Umar Al-Khattab….

   To be here is every Muslim’s wish. Here, we must be strong, both physically & mentally. Here, patience is very important element too. The people have come from all corners of the globe. Here, we do not have something else in our mind except fully doing the ibadah. May Allah do accept all our ibadah & good deeds. May Allah open our heart & mind to be one of His  best servants/creatures.
