One more tip from me since I just went last month alhamdulillah. Take ear plugs if you’re planning on doing tawaf on the main floor. The torpedo groups that push you around also chant really loudly which makes you lose focus on your own duas. The earplugs help block out their very loud chants. If you’re on the first floor then thankfully no chanting and pushing. You just have to watch out for the wheel chairs zipping around you.
omg the best decision i made was plugging in my headphones and listening to Quran during the Sa'i because it really helped block out the loud chanting! I was in my own world even with everything going on around me :)
Don't you know that stones fall from the meteorite belt every day? Please read 7th. Cent. custom being followed today: Sahih al-Bukhari 4376, 4377. Above all how naive is it to believe that kissing 8 pebbles on this Earth is the path to Paradise? Is it wise to believe that the stone which was blasted by the Qarmatians in 930 AD and what is left of it - the 8 pebbles will have eyes and ears and tongue to speak against you on day of resurrection? (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 961)
My first time going for Umrah, I was so put off by all the pushing. Now I want to go back eventually for Hajj but I'm almost afraid. All the pushing really frightened me!
First time I went on Hajj/Umrah 30 years ago - pushing has always happened. It's sad, in fact disgusting. I once saw a bunch of tall men push this short, elderly woman out of the way like she was a football - the woman fell over, people trampled on her, and the men laughed and gave each other high fives. We will not change these idiots and just be mentally prepared for it 😔😔😔
I understand the thing with the pushing and ive heard that A LOT but having done my first umrah now i must say that I see that everybody deals differently with being in a crowd and everyone has a different level of anxiety and different social norms. Anywhere else on this planet when so many people come together you would literally have a mass panic breaking out and people stepping over each other, trampling people etc. Mashaallah our Ummah is so unique and you feel so blessed seeing everyone at least TRYING to take care of everybody and in the same time saving themselves. So i feel like the pushing is so normal and it didnt seem to bother me a lot since i tried to understand thatot everyone has the same manners and etiquettes
I suppose you are one of those who like men - with their lingo erect rubbing against you. Watch Sandra Solomon's (a Saudi) videos to understand what a decent woman accepts as good and bad behaviour at Umrah.
I had the same immediate first reaction on the shock of pushing- but i realised for so many of them, this may be their first-and only overseas travel. They are pushing usually because they want to keep up with their group-the fear of being separated must cause a high degree of personal anxiety. For us who are more seasoned travellers, although we try & keep to our group- if we do get separated, it will not be so distressing & we know we will eventually find our way..Once i saw the world through their lens, each time there was pushing, i looked at the women in question and gave them a warm smile whilst nodding at them "it will be ok.." And this has broken hostility & brought some ease in a more than a few instances..
My flight is tomorrow and this is so incredibly helpful, jazakallah khair! I'm gonna go through all the rest of your videos - I hope for my sake you have one on transport options in Makkah!
Thanks so much for making videos & blogs about DIY Umrah. We just completed our first DIY umrah thanks to your videos & blogs. We stayed in Jabal Omar per your recommendation & we couldn’t agree more about the area being much more peaceful & less chaotic than hotels in the clock tower area
For the pass 30 years I i made my niyah to go atleast ones to umrah Listing to you I'm even more excited to experience the umrah Shukran so much for you contributin

MashaAllah, excellent video sister. Alhumdulillah I recently returned from my Umrah and you have described exactly what one would experience during their Umrah. May Allah grant all believers the opportunity to visit the Holy sites of Makkah and Madinah.
It’s true that every umrah gives you another experience. I tell myself every time to take my time, especially on safa and marwa. But somehow it’s still not on the pace I would like it to be due to the crowd and security telling others to make space. What I noticed last summer is that men are not very aware of their surroundings in sa’ee and as a woman alone standing waiting for water when you are thirsty is a wait you can’t win. I wish the men would be more aware of their strength. I am not a pusher so I wait patiently. Another thing I noticed is their ihraam, the way they throw it over their shoulder not realising how long it is 😂
Great information, thank you sister ❤my husband is Persian and going to Mecca for umrah . He’s going to take his mother who is 84 years old . He wants to take me with them too . Inshallah, next year in a cooler weather we will be there .
@@Muslimtravelgirl Half Greek half Bulgarian married to a Muslim. HAD to convert because you were neither Jew nor Christian. Women belonging to these two doctrines DO NOT have to convert. Secondly do you know what contract you did with your Muslim husband? "Nikah نكاح contract" do you know the meaning of نكاح?
btw i have to go to ihram on the plane to saudi then go do my umrah straight away. can using the toilet break your state of ihram since it will be a long flight and journey to haram
As’salam O Alaikum. Just to add to this, you could shower and even change the Ihram garments if needed. Only thing to avoid is perfumes or perfumed toiletry during the time you are in the state of Ihram. Hope this helps.
@@sagitarianme after the niyat of ahram if i reached my hotel in night and i want to sleep and then take shower in morning for freshness is it break my ahram niyat?
Thanks for video. I actually experienced other view with this video. I went umrah and hajj before but I didn’t think these before. And one question how did you text under your video like this video? Allah protect you my sister.
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "There are two statements that are light for the tongue to remember, heavy in the Scales and are dear to the Merciful: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ العَظِيم. 'Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, Subhan-Allahil-Azim [Glory be to Allah and His is the praise, (and) Allah, the Greatest is free from imperfection]."
Great! Kissing stones on Earth is the gateway to heaven because "Allah will raise the stone on the Day of Resurrection with two eyes by which it sees and a tongue that it speaks with, testifying to whoever touched it in truth." (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 961). Allah can make stones come to life but cannot come down to Earth as a human to free humans from the 'original sin' of Adam and Eve. Quran 4:171 - Says, speak the truth (إِلَّا ٱلْحَقَّ) - (Trinity explained) 1. WORD (كلمة الله kalimat allah) of Allah. (رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتُهُۥٓ) 2. SON (ٱبْنُ ibn) bestowed upon Mary BY Allah (ٱلْمَسِيحُ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ). 3. SPIRIT (رُوحٌ ruh) from Him (Allah) (وَرُوحٌ مِّنْهُ) As in Quran 4:171 JESUS ARE ALL THREE
Jazak Allahu khairan for all your helpful videos sister. Please can you give me a link to where I can check to find out if I would need a covid19 vaccine to travel from UK to do umrah in Ramadan. You did mention in your previous video it's not necessary no more. But I want to be sure they haven't updated that rule or anything.
There is no need for this for the past 3 yrs. You can check the Saudi tourism site or the UK government site. I doubt people even remember this anymore.
I'm going in a couple days and have learned a lot. Thank you for all your hard work!! Question for you. The rest of the world is boycotting certain brands, is the same happening in and around Mecca? Have you noticed any changes or is purchasing from those stores taking place as normal. Thanks again
I just got back from my trip and I have a couple pro tips. Maybe youve shared this with your veiwers. If you have not, here they are. Tip 1 is book your Rowda appointment closest to Fajr. I got to spend 2 full hours there (rather than 10 minutes) and got to pray fajr prayers. Second. Use the lowest level of the bathroom and the bathrooms furthest away from the entrance those are the cleanest and driest bathrooms. Oh and don't forget toilet paper!
I want to thank you so much for your videos. It's really helped me with my first umrah which I completed a few days ago. Another couple things I wanted to mentioned that I learned is to take your own unscented products including soap/ miswak/ hand sanitizer etc so you're not looking for them when you need it the most. A mask is best I found as there are so many people who are sick too. The hotel I booked was Emaar Al Kalil. About 200 SAR and just an 11 minute walk straight up towards gate 79. ❤ I think I saw you there or maybe it was someone who looked exactly like you in the mataf area. Blessings and greets from Canada
Assalamu alaikum... im working here in Abha,KSA for almost 7 years and this would be my 1st umrah.. in sha Allah🙏.. im a bit scared coz i dont have any company to go with me... May Allah swt guide on my journey...🙏Thank you sister for all ur effort of sharing tips and guides... May Allah bless u🙏🤍
Salams - I’m going in the next few days please advise - when I put on Hiram in the plane (female) can I go to my hotel in Makkah shower rest and then go for umra? Some say you can’t remove your clothes- or shower or change your clothes once you make the umra niyah? Please advise - thanks
As’salam O Alaikum sister. Just to add to this, Ihram for women is her normal modest clothing that covers her. Yes you can change clothes, take shower, rest before you go to haram to complete your Umrah. Only need to avoid using perfume or perfumed toiletries. When we go for Umrah, I find it more convenient to perform my Umrah straight away upon reaching Makkah and then take my wife and children after Isha prayer which is comparatively quiet time so I could help her and look after children. Hope this helps.
@@sagitarianme after niyat of ahram in abaya ariving in makka hotel and going for umrah can i change my scarf when i go performing umrah is it break my niyat of ahram or not?
I hope your Ummrah went well. Read about miqat. But as a visitor you cannot use the miqat closest to Mecca, that is for residence only. Inshallah you entered ihram before landing and did your ummrah straight away.
Soon I am going for umrah and it will be my first one. As a born muslim Albumdolillah, I would like to request you to gain more knowledge about the segregation part. As you told that you don't understand if it's haram for a men and women to be together untill and unless it's your father husband son or brother than how come in such a holy place people stick together while tawaf. I can simply explain this to you. There every one focus is only on Kaba Shareef. 8:45 But one should always remember that don't panic or make area crowded just to go near kaba. If it's possible and you are not touching anyone that you should grab the opportunity to go near. But if it's crowded than you should move away from crowd and make tawaf. As we are young and can walk on a bigger circle. I don't know whether I am able to explain or not. But this is what I have learned untill now. And this is how we can make respect to that place. May Allah forgive us and accept our umrah and haj.
Assalamu Aleykum sister I am a new convert I don’t know many things about Umrah and Hajj . It’s possible for a Muslima to go non accompanied in Mekka ? JazakAllah Khairan 🙌🏼☪️🕋🧕🏻🌸
Question is did you see ONE stone or several - did you count them. Why not! If smothering a black stone for the forgiveness of sins isn’t a blatant case of idolatry then nothing can ever be considered idolatrous. Ibn ʿAbbās said: This corner is the right hand of Allah on Earth with which he greets His servants, a greeting of a man for his brother. [Ibn Ḥajar said in al-maţālib al-ʿāliya (432/6) it was a mawqūf şaḥīḥ] “The Corner [of the Black Stone] (al-rukn) is Allah’s right Hand on earth…,” and declared it hasan as a hadith of the Prophet. Its mention in the Reliance of the Traveller (p. 835b) as “narrated by al-Hakim, who declared it sahih, Ata’ said: Abu Huraira related to me that he heard Allah’s Messenger saying, “He who touches it, in fact touches THE HAND OF THE MERCIFUL (Allah).’…” After all, if Allah’s limb can become a stone without this diminishing his deity then there is no logical objection to the true God becoming a physical human being while still retaining all of his essential divine attributes. As God’s only inspired Scriptures testifies in regards to the Lord Jesus
Black Stone? or Stones! Go again and have a better look this time (count them). Qarmatians blast the Ka'bah and the Black Stone in 930 and carried away by an extreme Shiʿi sect and held almost 20 years for ransom. Reason it is now 8 pieces. Ibn Hajar in Fath al-Baari, 3/462 say: “By Allah, Allah will bring it forth on the Day of Resurrection, and it will have Allah's two eyes with which it will see and a tongue with which it will speak, and it will testify in favour of those who touched it in sincerity.” if Allah’s two right hands can become 8 stones why the true God cannot becoming a physical human being while still retaining all of his essential divine attributes. As God’s only inspired Scriptures testifies in regards to the Lord Jesus Isaiah 7:14. Bible Isaiah 7:14 - (written 700 BC) Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel [God with us].
We're going for Umrah in Dec in sha Allah. Please tell me if we need any mandatory vaccinations? I heard influenza vaccination became mandatory recently
Salam sister hope you are well, any healthy eating places in Mecca and Medina? So far I have come across lots of unhealthy eating places and I’m planning to go in 6 months. Also what is the average food price over there In both Mecca and Medina? and are there any shops serving organic food like eggs, milk and bread? Assalamou alaikum😊
Hi sister. Are wheel chairs readily available. Want to go with mum InShaAllah and feel she may need a wheelchair Also is there a quiter season. I dont want to ruin my umrah bybgettjng angry by being pushed or my family being pushed.
@user..Aa..Bb.. the wheelchairs are accessible through hotel as well just ask them. Or the haram has some. It is getting harder to find quite time but I would say after big holidays like eid l, xmas etc
@@Muslimtravelgirl one more question please. What would you recommend to book the trip. Shall I get a flight and find a hotel or go with a group like a tour operator
Sister there is no segregation cause you are as a women obliged to have your mahram with You and also another things is that people go there to get rid of sins not to commit more sins . Umrah and Hajj shouldn’t be taken as holidays . May Allah guide us Ameen .
As Salam Aleikum wa Rahmatullah sister when you do umrah and Hajj you have your male mahram with you this is why . Your mahram and you toghether do umrah/Hajj in that sacred place .
@@Muslimtravelgirl I already think so maybe it's prohibited but it's my mom say this is good carry this thank you so much dear I subscribe your channel and definitely watch videos today Inshaa Allah ❤️❤️
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah (11/93): One of the conditions of Hajj being obligatory is that one should be able to do it, which includes having a mahram for women. If a woman does not have a mahram then she is not permitted to travel, and she is not obliged to perform Hajj unless she has a mahram and he agrees to travel with her. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka‘bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allaah, those who can afford the expenses” [Aal ‘Imraan 3:97]
About the segregation part: I’ve heard it’s because in front of the Kaaba, everyone is like brothers and sisters. So it’s not harram if you’re unintentionally touched by a man.
Assalamu Alaikum. So does it take only 1 day to do umrah? Should I just go to Kaba (mashjidul haram) after reading Saudi Arabia? I might have a long flight from NY.

During my Umrah, I was shocked that some tribal women moved away from me whenever I sat next to them. I remembered one woman tried to prevent me from sitting next to her. One would expect that people coming to Makkah from all over the world would have been taught that people of all colour converge there for worship. May Allaah grant us better understanding. Aameen.
I need help. Does anyone know if I need a meningitis vaccine certificate if I'm entering the KSA. Do they check it??? Please get back to me ASAP. Thanks
Masjid al Haram is the only place where there is no gender segregation and no straight prayer rows. True, people (believers?) forget good manners, basic politeness.
May Allah accept all your prayers and good deeds. Elena talking about starbucks made me write this comment, do not forget you brothers and sisters in Palestine, least we can do is boycotting brands supporting the gen0 cide, especially brands mentioned by BDS.
Palestine is neither an Arabic word, country or people. Emperor Haedrian in 132 AD named Judea and Samaria as Palestine. Hence the whole of Judea and Samaria (Israel) is Palestine.

While Muslims are going backwards, WHY? - Hindus, Jains, Marwaris certainly Christians etc prosper but Muslims lag behind. "Why are Muslims so backward? - QURAN." Pakistani Dr Farrukh Saleem (Dir. of CRSS) in 2009: "FOUR Indians can buy up all goods & services produced over a year by 177 million Pakistanis and 82.54 million Egyptians - and still be left with $30 billion to spare."

Alhamdulillah for my first umrah, i went during the most OFF times of the year and literally right before fajr. It was still a bit crowded though. I am in the school of thought that … if something makes you go absolutely crazy, it may be better to let things go…so when i saw people trampling to touch the blackstone, i immediately was put off and felt more than fine with not going near it. Its okay if you dont! Pls dont risk your decorum and izzat for a small sunnah 😭
Salam, does anyone have number of a taxi driver who can drive from jeddah airport to mecca Hotel and what’s the price. Also if anyone got number for Umrah tour guide person can you please Share their number. Thank you

It’s true that every umrah gives you another experience. I tell myself every time to take my time, especially on safa and marwa. But somehow it’s still not on the pace I would like it to be due to the crowd and security telling others to make space.

Thank you sister for your helpful information.
glad it benefits you x
Valuable information. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent Video - maa sha Allaah Honorable Sister Elena !
Hi Elena. What is your heritage, if you don’t mind me asking? Thanks for the detailed information about Hajj.
I'm half Greek half Bulgarian. 😀 thank you, glad you liked them
@@Muslimtravelgirl Half Greek half Bulgarian married to a Muslim. HAD to convert because you were neither Jew nor Christian.
Women belonging to these two doctrines DO NOT have to convert.
Secondly do you know what contract you did with your Muslim husband? "Nikah نكاح contract" do you know the meaning of نكاح?
@@Muslimtravelgirl HAD to convert because you were neither Jew nor Christian.
btw i have to go to ihram on the plane to saudi then go do my umrah straight away. can using the toilet break your state of ihram since it will be a long flight and journey to haram
Using the washroom doesn't break your ihraam. Just do wudu again before starting your umrah
@@sahmed84 Jazakallah Khair thank you for your help
As’salam O Alaikum. Just to add to this, you could shower and even change the Ihram garments if needed.
Only thing to avoid is perfumes or perfumed toiletry during the time you are in the state of Ihram. Hope this helps.
@@sagitarianme after the niyat of ahram if i reached my hotel in night and i want to sleep and then take shower in morning for freshness is it break my ahram niyat?
Thanks for video.
I actually experienced other view with this video. I went umrah and hajj before but I didn’t think these before.
And one question how did you text under your video like this video?
Allah protect you my sister.
MASHA ALLAH very detailed video
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "There are two statements that are light for the tongue to remember, heavy in the Scales and are dear to the Merciful:
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ العَظِيم.
'Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, Subhan-Allahil-Azim [Glory be to Allah and His is the praise, (and) Allah, the Greatest is free from imperfection]."
I'm going in two days! I'll let you know how my first experience is❤
Great! Kissing stones on Earth is the gateway to heaven because "Allah will raise the stone on the Day of Resurrection with two eyes by which it sees and a tongue that it speaks with, testifying to whoever touched it in truth." (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 961).
Allah can make stones come to life but cannot come down to Earth as a human to free humans from the 'original sin' of Adam and Eve.
Quran 4:171 - Says, speak the truth (إِلَّا ٱلْحَقَّ) - (Trinity explained)
1. WORD (كلمة الله kalimat allah) of Allah. (رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتُهُۥٓ)
2. SON (ٱبْنُ ibn) bestowed upon Mary BY Allah (ٱلْمَسِيحُ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ).
3. SPIRIT (رُوحٌ ruh) from Him (Allah) (وَرُوحٌ مِّنْهُ) As in Quran 4:171 JESUS ARE ALL THREE
Thank you so much, this is very helpful ❤ May Allah bless you 🥰
@@AmiraManla ameen jzk
Very helpful thank you😊
Assalomu Alaykum, thank you sister, all what you said make huge sense.
Glad it was helpful
Great video and info sis, thank you 😊
Jazak Allahu khairan for all your helpful videos sister.
Please can you give me a link to where I can check to find out if I would need a covid19 vaccine to travel from UK to do umrah in Ramadan.
You did mention in your previous video it's not necessary no more. But I want to be sure they haven't updated that rule or anything.
There is no need for this for the past 3 yrs. You can check the Saudi tourism site or the UK government site. I doubt people even remember this anymore.
@@MuslimtravelgirlSalam Alaikum.
Is there any other obligation for jabs? Any exemption? This is what keeps me away from visiting those places.
@@baharefil1184 no, there is not required. Some i believe on umrah visa but i dont think it is enforced. though i would wear a mask
New revert here....is it best to do Umrah first to " prepare or get a trial run" ( so to speak) before doing Hajj?
I'm going in a couple days and have learned a lot. Thank you for all your hard work!! Question for you. The rest of the world is boycotting certain brands, is the same happening in and around Mecca? Have you noticed any changes or is purchasing from those stores taking place as normal. Thanks again
I haven't been recently, but my husband was there during the weekend, and things all work 🙃
May Allah accept your and our ibadah. Thank you sister for your service to the Ummah
I just got back from my trip and I have a couple pro tips. Maybe youve shared this with your veiwers. If you have not, here they are. Tip 1 is book your Rowda appointment closest to Fajr. I got to spend 2 full hours there (rather than 10 minutes) and got to pray fajr prayers. Second. Use the lowest level of the bathroom and the bathrooms furthest away from the entrance those are the cleanest and driest bathrooms. Oh and don't forget toilet paper!
I want to thank you so much for your videos. It's really helped me with my first umrah which I completed a few days ago. Another couple things I wanted to mentioned that I learned is to take your own unscented products including soap/ miswak/ hand sanitizer etc so you're not looking for them when you need it the most. A mask is best I found as there are so many people who are sick too. The hotel I booked was Emaar Al Kalil. About 200 SAR and just an 11 minute walk straight up towards gate 79. ❤
I think I saw you there or maybe it was someone who looked exactly like you in the mataf area. Blessings and greets from Canada
Assalamu alaikum... im working here in Abha,KSA for almost 7 years and this would be my 1st umrah.. in sha Allah🙏.. im a bit scared coz i dont have any company to go with me... May Allah swt guide on my journey...🙏Thank you sister for all ur effort of sharing tips and guides... May Allah bless u🙏🤍
Mashallah thank you for sharing
My pleasure
Can we wear a little concealer while in ihram? To cover scars black bags under eyes? Jzk
You can ask an imam, as I don't remember 100% I think if you did it before getting into state of ihram was OK but I'm not sure and not a scholae
Salams - I’m going in the next few days please advise - when I put on Hiram in the plane (female) can I go to my hotel in Makkah shower rest and then go for umra? Some say you can’t remove your clothes- or shower or change your clothes once you make the umra niyah? Please advise - thanks
aska. scholar but i thought you can, you also dont need to put ihram this is for men. you are in abaya and clothes then it's ok
As’salam O Alaikum sister. Just to add to this, Ihram for women is her normal modest clothing that covers her.
Yes you can change clothes, take shower, rest before you go to haram to complete your Umrah.
Only need to avoid using perfume or perfumed toiletries.
When we go for Umrah, I find it more convenient to perform my Umrah straight away upon reaching Makkah and then take my wife and children after Isha prayer which is comparatively quiet time so I could help her and look after children.
Hope this helps.
@@sagitarianme after niyat of ahram in abaya ariving in makka hotel and going for umrah can i change my scarf when i go performing umrah is it break my niyat of ahram or not?
I hope your Ummrah went well. Read about miqat. But as a visitor you cannot use the miqat closest to Mecca, that is for residence only. Inshallah you entered ihram before landing and did your ummrah straight away.
Soon I am going for umrah and it will be my first one. As a born muslim Albumdolillah, I would like to request you to gain more knowledge about the segregation part. As you told that you don't understand if it's haram for a men and women to be together untill and unless it's your father husband son or brother than how come in such a holy place people stick together while tawaf.
I can simply explain this to you. There every one focus is only on Kaba Shareef. 8:45 But one should always remember that don't panic or make area crowded just to go near kaba. If it's possible and you are not touching anyone that you should grab the opportunity to go near. But if it's crowded than you should move away from crowd and make tawaf. As we are young and can walk on a bigger circle. I don't know whether I am able to explain or not. But this is what I have learned untill now. And this is how we can make respect to that place. May Allah forgive us and accept our umrah and haj.
Assalamu Aleykum sister
I am a new convert I don’t know many things about Umrah and Hajj .
It’s possible for a Muslima to go non accompanied in Mekka ?
JazakAllah Khairan 🙌🏼☪️🕋🧕🏻🌸

But my question is about the black stone I didn't see a silver casing around it. How come?
Question is did you see ONE stone or several - did you count them. Why not!
If smothering a black stone for the forgiveness of sins isn’t a blatant case of idolatry then nothing can ever be considered idolatrous.
Ibn ʿAbbās said: This corner is the right hand of Allah on Earth with which he greets His servants, a greeting of a man for his brother. [Ibn Ḥajar said in al-maţālib al-ʿāliya (432/6) it was a mawqūf şaḥīḥ]
“The Corner [of the Black Stone] (al-rukn) is Allah’s right Hand on earth…,” and declared it hasan as a hadith of the Prophet. Its mention in the Reliance of the Traveller (p. 835b) as “narrated by al-Hakim, who declared it sahih,
Ata’ said: Abu Huraira related to me that he heard Allah’s Messenger saying, “He who touches it, in fact touches THE HAND OF THE MERCIFUL (Allah).’…”
After all, if Allah’s limb can become a stone without this diminishing his deity then there is no logical objection to the true God becoming a physical human being while still retaining all of his essential divine attributes. As God’s only inspired Scriptures testifies in regards to the Lord Jesus
Black Stone? or Stones!
Go again and have a better look this time (count them).
Qarmatians blast the Ka'bah and the Black Stone in 930 and carried away by an extreme Shiʿi sect and held almost 20 years for ransom. Reason it is now 8 pieces.
Ibn Hajar in Fath al-Baari, 3/462 say: “By Allah, Allah will bring it forth on the Day of Resurrection, and it will have Allah's two eyes with which it will see and a tongue with which it will speak, and it will testify in favour of those who touched it in sincerity.”
if Allah’s two right hands can become 8 stones why the true God cannot becoming a physical human being while still retaining all of his essential divine attributes. As God’s only inspired Scriptures testifies in regards to the Lord Jesus Isaiah 7:14.
Bible Isaiah 7:14 - (written 700 BC) Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel [God with us].
Black Stone? or Stones!
Go again and this time count them and blame the Qatamarians.
I suggest for all sisters to read seerah of Rasollah Sallahu Aleihi wa Salam and stories of prophets and greatest women of Islam
Ok so I just went the pushing and shoving was awful and they think it's a thing they have to do
We're going for Umrah in Dec in sha Allah. Please tell me if we need any mandatory vaccinations? I heard influenza vaccination became mandatory recently
not aware of this bein mandatory. i do have a video on vaccines
Salam sister hope you are well, any healthy eating places in Mecca and Medina? So far I have come across lots of unhealthy eating places and I’m planning to go in 6 months. Also what is the average food price over there In both Mecca and Medina? and are there any shops serving organic food like eggs, milk and bread? Assalamou alaikum😊
Hi sister. Are wheel chairs readily available. Want to go with mum InShaAllah and feel she may need a wheelchair
Also is there a quiter season. I dont want to ruin my umrah bybgettjng angry by being pushed or my family being pushed.
@user..Aa..Bb.. the wheelchairs are accessible through hotel as well just ask them. Or the haram has some. It is getting harder to find quite time but I would say after big holidays like eid l, xmas etc
@Muslimtravelgirl thank you
@@Muslimtravelgirl one more question please. What would you recommend to book the trip.
Shall I get a flight and find a hotel or go with a group like a tour operator
Sister there is no segregation cause you are as a women obliged to have your mahram with You and also another things is that people go there to get rid of sins not to commit more sins . Umrah and Hajj shouldn’t be taken as holidays . May Allah guide us Ameen .
As Salam Aleikum wa Rahmatullah sister when you do umrah and Hajj you have your male mahram with you this is why . Your mahram and you toghether do umrah/Hajj in that sacred place .
Mashallah thank you sister.
hahaha i m the one who is Inshaa Allah going for umrah and tooo much hesitate and watch different videos specially skincare can i apply lip balm???
Yes, you can, girl. I'm not scholar but from what I know if you apply before your intention. The. Its OK
@@Muslimtravelgirl and dear one Abaya is enough for 1 person or 2 Abaya?and my Abaya is transparent so is it ok or not?plz rep
@@khushikhan5549 definitely no transparent abaya. I have many articles on muslimtravelgirl.com/umrah on what to wear
@@Muslimtravelgirl I already think so maybe it's prohibited but it's my mom say this is good carry this thank you so much dear I subscribe your channel and definitely watch videos today Inshaa Allah ❤️❤️
How did the process go when you were to perform the hajj? Do you really need to register on a website to be able to go to hajj?
Yes 100% so many checks
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah (11/93): One of the conditions of Hajj being obligatory is that one should be able to do it, which includes having a mahram for women. If a woman does not have a mahram then she is not permitted to travel, and she is not obliged to perform Hajj unless she has a mahram and he agrees to travel with her. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka‘bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allaah, those who can afford the expenses”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:97]
Assalamwalaikum. Can women perfume their body before ihram like men ?
@By.Muskan I believe you can, but I'm not a scholar. So better ask 😌 your imam. Also why? Just do umrah and perfume after it's 2hrs
@Muslimtravelgirl okayyy. Another question is that can we use fragrance free moisturiser and sunscreen before assuming ihram ?
@@By.Muskan yes you can.
@@Muslimtravelgirl thank you so much 😄
About the segregation part:
I’ve heard it’s because in front of the Kaaba, everyone is like brothers and sisters. So it’s not harram if you’re unintentionally touched by a man.
Allahuma barik laha
11:12 Starbucks is haram
😄
Assalamu Alaikum.
So does it take only 1 day to do umrah?
Should I just go to Kaba (mashjidul haram) after reading Saudi Arabia? I might have a long flight from NY.
@miss_nobody9876 yes takes 2 hrs

Is it less crowded at night?

Please let me know if you are staying for four to five days, how many umrah can I do.
During my Umrah, I was shocked that some tribal women moved away from me whenever I sat next to them. I remembered one woman tried to prevent me from sitting next to her.
One would expect that people coming to Makkah from all over the world would have been taught that people of all colour converge there for worship.
May Allaah grant us better understanding. Aameen.

True, people (believers?) forget good manners, basic politeness.
May Allah accept all your prayers and good deeds. Elena talking about starbucks made me write this comment, do not forget you brothers and sisters in Palestine, least we can do is boycotting brands supporting the gen0 cide, especially brands mentioned by BDS.
Palestine is neither an Arabic word, country or people.

Alhamdulillah for my first umrah, i went during the most OFF times of the year and literally right before fajr. It was still a bit crowded though. I am in the school of thought that … if something makes you go absolutely crazy, it may be better to let things go…so when i saw people trampling to touch the blackstone, i immediately was put off and felt more than fine with not going near it. Its okay if you dont! Pls dont risk your decorum and izzat for a small sunnah 😭
Salam, does anyone have number of a taxi driver who can drive from jeddah airport to mecca Hotel and what’s the price. Also if anyone got number for Umrah tour guide person can you please Share their number. Thank you
you are better with getting a taxi outside the airport. much faster and easier
Why not the fast train? Take a taxi to the train station
@linanajjar1797 I think it's personal.opinion. for large families taxi might be a better option as its less hassle
Good video except we should be boycotting organisations that have links to the occupation

No but seriously, why cant they organize segregation? There should be different timings for men and women.
You can't really. Logistically cant
A good tip is: wear youre hijab on the good way, in umrah and also not on umrah !
