First time umrah
Hi everyone, just wanted to share my experience of completing my first ever umrah. Alhamdulillah I was able to complete 3 with my dad, uncle and grandad. This was the first time I left my home country in over 16 years so I was naturally a little worried about leaving home and flying to another country. however, this past week as by far been the best week of my life. I was blessed that Allah was able to invite me here with my family and it's truely been a blessing. As for the weather, it was really hot for me since I'm used to the cold weather but I did eventually get used to it, but please if anyone is coming to complete umrah soon or in the near future I urge you to take some sunglasses and sun cream you will thank me later! The hospitality has been great throughout, from the moment we landed and now currently in madinah. And if your prone to getting ill easily I recommend taking medicine with you, I got ill as soon as we reached madinah. And as of now madinah is so much colder than Makkah, to the point where I actually had to leave the hotel in a jacket at one point so I recommended taking something that will keep you warm in Madinah. But overall, Saudi has been amazing and I will try to come hear annually to complete umrah inshallah, and may Allah give all Muslims the opportunity to complete umrah Ameen
