2.5 Million Hujjaaj

Hujjaaj at Arafat

Hujjaaj at Arafat

Assalaamu’Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

The Hujjaaj of 1431 are making their collective way to the plains of Arafat. There, they will beg for forgiveness from Allah and plead for a life on this earth that is full of barakah and mercy. May Allah accept their pleas, make their Hajj one of ease, happiness, and satisfaction, and invite to His Blessed Home all of those who have yet to go on the pilgrimage of a lifetime. And may He return to these blessed lands all of those who yearn to revisit the best moments of their lives. Ameen.

If those fail for you, you may find it easier to visit the website iHaram Salaah Archives; you may need to click on the Play button a few times to get the stream going. Continue Reading →
