Suddenly i eager to post this story about my ramadan last year (2010).. i went just myself with Umra tour, n like every umra do, i "have" new family there.. hehe, be a mahrom for the ladies who do it alone.. For your information, this state really strict about islamic law.. and ramadan moment was very Hot n dusty season there.. just try it if you wanna feel 52-55 celcius in the mid day

This scene will hypnotice every visitors, like me :) For centuries, millions pigeons living over this holy place.. they feeded by locals, visitor n off course, blessing by the Almighty
multiactivities... all receive the goodness from almighty.. Look a pigeon was secure playing there..
Mushaf (Qor'an) place.. very easy to find n you can give wakaf there..
and only the best quran from madinah will stay in there
(periodic time some official do sorting the quran n the different one just send it to other mosque next Makkah)
27th Night of Ramadan... Milions prayer exit after Lail Prayer.. while other milions keep stay inside Haroom to do i'tikaf a night long... Powerfull positif energy there
You should feels the energy there... superb! makes me always gonna back there again!
Yup, i got the very best pict, captured from above makkah tower.. this is was 27th night of ramaddan..
Very AWESOME right? :)
(thx to group of Makkah fotography)
Makkah tower, with cool clock there.. seconds while it turning off the light.. that was maybe 06.15am
Taking from the top floor of masjidil haram... still that morning before do the dhuha pray
still couldn't imagine, in that dessert country, there were a world biggest tallest clock tower..
it only because ibrahim a.s. pray before to the Almighty to bless this country... Now, it proved!
Taking rest before do the umra.. this inside tan'eem mosque, place we do miqot (aiming to do umra, after bathing, take ablution, n 2 rakaat pray)
Iftar time (break the fasting time).. this next to miqot place (Tan'eem Mosque) in makkah.. in that moment, I had time to break fasting together with indonesian, at outside Haroom.. Very nice n feels like at Home.. we break with lots of food n drinks that given by someone as shodaqoh.. ^^
having iftar with Indonesian, n see that is our foods n drinks.. just given by locals as shodaqoh
Look from outtown... it captured after leaving Makkah n heading to Madinah.. see the different of the building height.. it was the tallest clock tower in the world
Passing dessert at sunset time... just dessert along the way.. no water, but lots of Oil inside... Wow!
Local gas station n their local coach... i really love big bus!
Stopping in the middle way to having magrib pray n get dinner with bukhori rice, n eat together in one big plate... hehe i really enjoy that time ;)
that's my room mate, syekh n para penghisap (smoker grup) after dinning bukhori's rice..
haha now i miss them!
Madinah... the nicest city on earth (by me :p)
and Holyland, will see you again soon.... for sure!
