The most beautiful moment in my life



Dear sisters, I finally got some pics from umrah. We stayed 2 nights in Medina, in good hotel. U know,I like people in Medina, theyre just so different with people in Mekkah. Medina people are polite, friendly and more civilized, while people in Mekkah are scary hehehe, especially the men when they see women...omg, they acted like they never saw women before. I love Medina, and the Masjid Nabawi. The most beautiful moment in Medina when we finally got into Raudah (heaven park) inside Masjid Nabawi, where there is Rasulullah saw graveyard. MashaAllah, i cant stop crying, when finally I got a chance to say salaam to Muhammad Rasulullah SaW... Assalamualaika ya NabiYaAllah, Assalamualaika ya HAbiballaH, the hadits said that Rasulullah always knows who came to his Graveyard and say Shalawat to him, he always answers it.. oh Ya Allah, I finally got a chance though it was only so little time. We struggled with the Turkey’s, i was so touched with how they praise Rasulullah SaW, they worshipped Allah, omg, i was so so so small, i felt soooo small, am just nothing there.... We also came to Jabal Uhud in Medina, we prayed in Masjid Quba, but i didnt take the pic... Subhanallah..seeing Jabal Uhud, where all the syahid died there..and seeing Hamzah ra graveyard. We also came to Dates Graden, I bought Ajwa dates (Nabi dates) ---> its the most expensive and finest dates.

After 2 nights in Medina, we went to Mekkah, it took about 5 hours from Medina to Mekkah. We started our 1st umrah when wegot in Mekkah. Subhanallah, 1st time I saw Ka'bah, i just cant stop saying Allahu Akbar.. masha Allah, masha Allah, when u get there, u just dont want to go home. I wish I cud die there...... I was so amazed with all the people, how they worshiped Allah, how they love Allah and RAsulullah Saw so much, it just made me feel so small, and feel like a sinner. I also amazed with Shofa-Marwa, when we do sa'i, I thought it was like the real mount, but it's so luxurious, its been facilitated very well, and can u imagine, so so many people do sa'i there, the place is just so enough.... really. When i got a chance to kiss the hajar aswad, masha Allah, ya Allah, everything u do there just made u love and love Allah more, and I hope it will continue till I die. till i face Allah. The next day after we did umrah, we did city tour around Mekkah. We went to Arafah, Jabal Rahmah (where Adam and Eve met), Hira', jabal tsur (where Rasulullah Saw and Abu Bakar hid), Mina, we even saw a Masjid Baiatul Aqabah, where RAsulullah Saw did the 1st baiatul Aqabah And this masjid is supposed to be destroyed by the Government, coz it across the street, but it cant be destroyed, so, just live it like that, Subhanallah yah... and u can see the pics inside masjidil haram, ahhh.. i didnt want to go home, really.Oh yea, the most beautiful moment in Mekkah, when I was waiting for Maghrib time, i sat next to an old woman from Turkey, when the prayer caller starts, she looked so omg,i cant describe it, she looked so in love with Allah, Rasulullah saw, and when she heard the adzan, it looks how much she misses Allah, but then i looked into myself, omg, when i heard adzan in Indonesia, i acted like its nothing special, astaghfirullah, and then I realize, how lucky i am, i can hear the adzan every 5 times a day, and I can enjoy it, unlike people in Europe, that Adzan is forbidden. After that, i cant stop crying and cant stop feeling syukr, that Allah has given me so much love, so much luck of being a muslim since i was born, I just didnt realize it, I even feel so ashamed, i shud've learned Arabic long time ago. and I feel so lucky as well that I have chance to go Umrah, it really brings the meaning in my life, the most beautiful meaning and worshipped to Allah the Mighty, Allahu Akbar!! oh yea,in our hotel in Mekkah, there was a Malaysian woman almost raped by the hotel staff (Bangladesh man), fortunately Allah still protected her. No wonder Rasulullah Saw got very little Mekkah person during his dakwah in Mekkah yea? While in Medina, he was accepted so easily.. that;s Why Ka'bah and Islam grows in Mekkah hehehe.
