Okay. I know I've shared so many silly things. But tonight. I feel like to sharing my day with my dearest family performed Ummrah. It happened during our first day of Ramadhan. This year. 2 weeks ; a week at Madinah and a week at Mecca. It was the best I must say terrific and most honorable holiday ever at there. Alhamdulillah. Our dream had finally granted by Allah SWT. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. First time fasting there with family and the rest of ummah. Lovely day. Weather was fine. Though it was a summer. But Allah is The Greatest. HE didn't let us down during performing our ummrah. I can feel the heat came from beneath my legs and flown all the way up to my head. Fuh! So many obstacle. So many trials during Ramadhan in Madinah and Mecca. Do really need to behave while in Madinah and Mecca. Temper was tested. Dehydrated. Bad back ache. Headache. Almost everything were tested by Allah to us. But with a strong faith from us to HIM. HE never let us down. Every second. That is why until now. I miss Madinah and Mecca so bad.
1st week of ummrah. We visited Madinah. We prayed, break fast, sahur, performed terawikh together will all ummah ummrah from all countries. From there. I can feel the bond between you and the rest of them. Are related. With one religion. Islam. I even got 4 gifts from them Alhamdulillah. For break fast. Alhamdulillah. We managed to eat with others. They were so kind. Sharing food. Sharing knowledge. We visited Mount Hira'. Where Gua Hira' is located between the 3 hills. Of course. Not forgetting. Masjidil An-Nabawi. A mosque where our beloved prophet Nabi Muhammad SAW (peace upon him) sanctuary was placed among with his 3 of his relatives (peace upon them). We visited the rest of his followers graveyard. Unfortunately, women are not allowed to enter. Everything were the best memory ever.
2nd week of ummrah. We headed to Mecca. Where we performed our ummrah Before headed to Mecca. We had to express intention of ihram at Masjid Al-Amin. On our there. Challenged was given. Dehydrated. Challenge is everywhere. Alhamdulillah. Everything went well. After 6 long hours journey to Mecca. I woke up and saw The Clock Tower of Mecca. Heart pounding so hard. I was scared with no reason before looking the Kaabah. Probably I've done too many sins. Hehe. In fact, it is Allah's Home. I felt the fear through my bones. To be frank. I did shaking a bit. Before we performed ummrah. Take a rest at the hotel nearby. After break fast. We heading to Kaabah.
There were so many people there. Crowded. Oh forgot to mention. The Arab people. So huge. Big and strong.Okay back to the description. We entered the Masjidil Haram on our right leg. With intention of performing ummrah. It was so crowded. Subhanallah! So many people wondering around Masjidil Haram. Some recite al-quran after performed ummrah. Some did tawaf sunat.
When I entered the mosque. There was it. Kaabah. A beautiful Kaabah exactly in front of me. Me and my brother teared up. Masya Allah! The feeling of stepping our foot on Masjidil Haram was remarkable. Amazing. But still speechless. We did Tawaf around the Kaabah for 7 times. Then headed to Sa'i. Where we did our 7 times walking at Safa and Marwah. Finished with everything. Tears ran down on my face. I did it. We all did it.
Later that day. We visited Mina, Mudzalifah, Arafah. Mount Rahmah. Mount Uhud. Masya Allah. It was the best thing ever that my dream has finally came through. Alhamdulillah. We back to KL 2 weeks before Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Missing the day at Madinah and Mecca. Hopefully me and my family come back again there. Amin..
