Umrah Experience in Makkah - Just Menong

The Umrah experience in Makkah is the most memorable and, at the same time, the most missed experience. I may have had this dream since I was still in high school. And I never imagined that one day I would finally be able to set my foot on God's earth, which everyone longs for.

Makkah Al Mukaramah

Alhamdulillah... finally had the opportunity to see this special city directly during Umrah. Makkah Al Mukaramah...The beloved Prophet was born in this city. In contrast to Medina, which tends to be quiet. Eve of Makkah feels more like calling us to always hurry up and hasten to the house of Allah.

The city of Makkah is a city that is missed, a place where we always want to return, just like the prayer we recite when performing the last tawaf.

Prayer in the Holy Land

Oh God, don't make this the moment of the last meeting with Your holy house. But if You have set it as my last meeting with him, then grant me heaven instead

"May we be among those who return, people of worship, people of prostration, and to God we all praise."

"Amen."

This is the prayer that brings each of us to always want to return to perform Umrah or Hajj in the holy land.

Writings, photos in albums, souvenirs, and stories are just a few of the souvenirs from the Umrah experience in Mecca and Medina that we bring home after our Umrah. In fact, the sculptures of our longing for the holy land are the greatest souvenirs and memories that will always make us miss this place that God glorifies.
