Makkah Friday 17th July 2020

Just under 2 weeks before Hajj starts (26th Dhul Qa'dah)....the streets of Makkah are empty Allaahulmusta'aan.

Around this time approximately 2.5 million people are usually descending on Mina for Hajj, the streets are packed with people in ihraam and cars beeping bumper to bumper on every street. This year is sadly very different. At least a few people are still allowed to perform Hajj this year which is a consolation that it is not cancelled completely. Alhamdulillaah.

Allaah forgive us our sins, Allaah remove this calamity of corona and every other test from us and return us stronger in our deen than we were before.
