yesss..its like a dream come true for me!had always wanted to see the holy kaabah in real, before this can only see in tv -hehe- to be able to perform prayers facing it, standing still rite in front of it..umrah can be performed at any time during the year where it is not compulsory but then its highly recommended!alhamdulillah i got the chance to visit the holy place together with my parents in laws (PIL) and also my brother & sister in laws.
this is also regarded as our HONEYMOON!!hehe..yesss, since we did not get the chance just yet (cuz i was on my 6 months horrondious training immediately after the wedding!will write on that later ya) so this is our so first honeymoon :) was so ethusiast about it and more i was a 4 months preggers back then!am carrying my lil bump there too!thrrrriilledd!
ok peeps, lets piccas do the talking:
ok..passport checked!ooo..booollatnye saya:p
us in the plane seated and buckled up!
yummilicious and mouth watering!dinner's served..
ok..after dinner & supper served, here we are, landed safe and sound at the airport..(transit in doha for like 6 loooongg hours thou)..h1n1 was waving worldwide during the time..
2nd day : on our way to nabawi mosque!terrific and heart captivating i must say!unbelievable at first sight..
the shop : there's my FIL scouting in it..hehe
this was on our 3rd day if am not mistaken, we were brought to jabal uhud, where perang uhud took place. its hottt peeps!myself soothed 3 mineral bottles!!and boy that was not enuff!
ok this is us dressed all up for umrah in mecca the holy city..(previously we spent 3 days in medina, city of the prophet Muhammad)
in front of the masjidil haram..howweee, the undescriable moments!happy, touched, and the feeling of guiltiness creeps in!we certainly had done with our umrah at this point..
owh, it was 2 days before ramadhan..crowds from all over the world started pouring the holy city - during ramadhan its a countless bless to be able to perform tarawikh in front on kaabah- and us were very much flattered being able to be part of them seeking forgiveness from Him..and how much i was even touched seeing the veterans, there was one this old white lady walking alone, despite their aging hurdles - not to mention those on wheelchair - all in unity to seek the blessings creditted in the holy month of Ramadhan..
those were the crowds performing tarawikh obediently.. sgt menginsafkan!!!
yeayy!us in front of kaabah..(the police guard kept on hunting for those with cameras inside: camera's not allowed initially, sumhow we managed squeezed it in:p)
ok..that was all i guess..there were wayy much much piccas taken of course, tapi takkan semua nak taruk kan..reason y am posting this, is actually as a token of reminisince for me to look back in future..and for my lil adam to know that he's been there thou not technically :) and am indeed thankful for the given opportunity..
