I hope you all are well and enjoying your lives. I was on vacation from 3rd October and spending my golden time of my life at Makkah and Madina. I'm very blessed to have this opportunity once again in my life. Every Muslim wants to visit these places for Umrah or Hajj. I'm still at Makkah, but my journey is almost over, and I will return this week, InshaAllah.

Let me share some details of my trip.
My daughter was planning a vacation with me; she wanted to go out with me, not with family, so we planned our 1-week trip to Dubai after her exams in the 1st week of September. My aunt came home to meet me and was going to perform umrah, so I told her about our plan. She advised, "Don't waste money on a useless trip; spend this money on umrah and earn your aakherht (life after death)." I agreed immediately on her advice.

Warisha asked "you don't want to visit Dubai?? " I replied, "We will go to Dubai, don't worry." She said "I realize you don't want, that's the reason you agreed with your aunt for umrah" I explained her with love that some things are worthless there is no comparison between umrah and Dubai trip, both are trips but umrah is spiritual trip, many mulisms die keeping this wish in their hearts to visit Kab Atulahh. If life is giving this opportunity to us we must avail it.

Next week we (me, my daughter, my son, and my mother) applied for umrah, and the next day, alhumdulilah, we got approved for visas. The airlines through which I want to fly were booked for 10 days, so our traveling date would be after the 10th of September. Then I talked to someone; he had tickets for the next day, and I said yes. No one can believe that we were traveling after one day. I didn't do any packing, even though everything was done to fly.

Alhumdulilah on 3rd October we flew to Saudi Arebia for umrah. My son and daughter were going first time to perform umrah but my mother visited once before. Alhumdulilah that was my 4th visit to holy kaaba tulah.

We all were very excited, my kids had 1st experience of international traveling. We enjoyed our journey with spiritual satisfaction. After 4hrs we reached to jeddah then by bused we reached to our hotel at Makkah. We checked in and placed our luggage their and with out wasting time we moved to kaaba tullah and performed our first umrah.

We all were feeling blessed and enjoyed Umarah. I prayed for many people who said to me and for many who's not. I prayed for @waterjoe, @tucsond especially because I saw them at haram two times.At haram, this time majority of Indonesian is present so many of Indonesian steemains were in my prayers too.

These are some of my memories from my 1st day that is 3rd October. There are many more to share with you I will share with you in my other diary. I'm still in my golden time but this journey is now going to end this week and will back to my home InshaAllah.
