SALAM,
This was my first time performing Umrah, went with my boss and his friends, besides performing the rites witnessed and experienced a number of things such as:
- see the real Mekah & Madinah
- see different cultures and people performing the Umrah
- see how ISLAM united the people by having the UMRAH & HAJJ
- watch and know about the ARABS more
- appreciate the God's greatness
- witness the right practice and worshiping practice by various races and believers..
- many more
Was there close to one week and stayed @ ROYAL MAKKAH hotel, wonder whether this hotel still exists because during my time there, the city was under reconstruction and massive development by the BEN LADEN group.
The climate the as usual was very hot and dry during the day and cold at night so i performed most of the rites during the night. Went during RAMADHAN and it was awesome experiences. Thanks GOD i was healthy before and after the UMRAH.
