Heart of Islam ... ( 2008 )

LoCaTion : Ksa - Mecca /

yesterday i came back from Umrah , oo enshalah alah yaktebha likom oo etzoron el ka3bah el mosharafah ...

 

Fisrt of all, I 'd like to write a summery describing the ''Umrah'' :

The Umrah is a pilgrimage to Mecca performed by Muslims that can be undertaken at any time of the year. In Arabic Umrah means “to visit a populated place”. As a technical term used in the Shari’ah, Umrah means to perform Tawaf of Kaabah and Sa’ey between Al-Safa and Al-Marwah, after assuming Ihram, either from a Miqat or a place in Hill. it is sometimes called the 'minor pilgrimage' or 'lesser pilgrimage', the Hajj being the 'major' pilgrimage and which is compulsory for every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it. According to some schools of Islamic thought, the Umrah is not compulsory but highly recommended.

 

Since it is not allowed to take any pictures inside (Al Haram ), i used my mobile ( Sony Ericsson K800i. ) to capture the moment before Salat Al duher ( After true noon prayer ) ...

honestly, i couldnt resist to practice photography right there :>
