Haj season for 2014 had closed and all Haj Pilgrims safely
back to their home base. Now the Umrah season is about to open starting from
December 2014 and will last till Ramadan 2015.
Had been very busy lately assisting my friend in the Umrah
Travel Office and had no time even to blog. By the time I am home, I am dead
tired.
The first flight of sixty five (65) Umrah Pilgrims
tentatively on 05 December 2014 vide Kuwait Airline destined for Jeddah and
final destination to Medina by road.
The following day on 06 December, insyaalah I will lead
forty one (41) Pilgrims vide Saudi Airline to Jeddah and straight on to the
Holy Land, Mecca to perform the umrah. On this journey, the pilgrimage to
Medina would be last and headed home to KLIA via Medina on 17 December 2014, the very day I would be touching fifty nine (59).
Insyaallah, Allah with His kind blessings will bestow me with good health to successfully
lead the delegation.

| Kaabah....here I come. |

| Masjid Nabawi - the most beautiful place in the world. |
Understand, Masjidilharam in Mekah is under massive
extensive renovation and extension. The feedback obtained, King Abdul Aziz Gate
is currently close.
There are few more flights going straight to Mekah or Medina
and if coincide with my presence at either places, I have to render assistance.
The Office original plan was for me lead a delegation of
Palestine and Umrah Pilgrims starting from 17 December 2014 but the turmoil
currently in Jerusalem between the Israelites and the West Bank Palestinians
scares off potential Pilgrims. We had to abandon the program. We postpone to
March 2015 if the condition in Jerusalem back to norm. We hope so and I pray to
Allah, all parties come to their senses.
Two (2) weeks from now, I am on my way back to the Holy Land,
insyaalah (Allah permits). The last time I was there was Ramadan 2014.
