Salaam everyone!
In this video I talk about my experience of Hajj 2023 and my experience with Nusuk for pilgrimage as a Muslim from the west in Europe (UK).
This video will hopefully give you information about the Islamic pilgrimage, Hajj, and how to perform it in modern 2023.
If you have questions comment down below and I will answer them.
Jazakallah khair!

I was there too with my son and yes, the bathrooms were disgusting I have never ever were disgusting by bathrooms anywhere than at Muzdilfa
Honestly, the officials should be ashamed
Thank you for the heads up.
@@ShahrinRahman I brought a portable handheld travel bidet and ended up using it a couple of times if the stall bidet wasn't working or if it was too dirty.
Alhamdulilah that was very informative jazakallah hu khairan
Wa antum khairun! 🙏🏽

Jazak Allah, we went for Hajj last year
Allhumduallah a very useful video.
Thanks for such a useful video
Alhamdullllah
Aslamolekum, Jazak Allah Khair for the information. InshaAllaha intending to perform Haj this year. May Allah Kareem make it easy for us and accept our efforts.
Ameen! I pray your Hajj goes smoothly and is accepted
Alhumdullilah
Baraka Allahu fiik for sharing experiences on Hajj
Totally loved it! May Allah SWT take me there every year. Ameen
May Allah accept all your Duas.
Ameen 😊
Jazak Allah Khair. Very useful and concise information. In sha Allah, I will be going for Hajj this year from the UK. Instead of Nusuk, I have booked with a Pakistani group, as this will allow me to be with my family members going from Pakistan. May Allah SWT accept our Hajj and make it easy for us. Aameen
Ameen Brother. The Pakistani way will save you some money as well.
MashaAllah absolutely loved this video! Brought back so many amazing memories from Hajj the year before (2022) when it became digital for western pilgrims under Motawif now Nusuk. Glad that services have improved slightly and inshaAllah will continue to improve further! ❤
JazakAllah khair 😊 How did you find it last year? We tried to go last year but we didn’t get the ticket confirmation until very late and we lost confidence in Motawif. Glad to hear you have good memories!
Jazakallah..for ur good experience shared.....very nice true said
Thank you brother 😊
This was such a useful video, thank you brother for sharing, this is so very insightful. May Allah reward you in abundance for your honest account.
Ameen!
Qustion
Did your taxi drop younquite close to the mosqe or did you still had to walk quite a bit how much did he charge
,
How was the police checking? Many are still suffering with nusuk this year, and some are still going in tourist visas
May Allah bless you I’m going this year inshallah ❤️❤️❤️🤲🤲🤲🤲🕋🕋🕋🕋🕋
insha'Allah :)
Salaam brother myself and my wife traveled with u for hajj, I enjoyed your company may Allah unite us again one day.
Your translation on coach was impeccable Thanks
Wa alaykum salaam brother! Yes I recognise you from your profile picture. Ameen.
Haha thank you for complimenting my very patchy Urdu 😀 Jazakallah khair for commenting and for the kind words brother, take care!
Bhai ap kindly raagestraton kitty din me hoi this. Please tel me
Massa Allah one month ago you made dua for me❤ thanks aghi I'm in Mecca Azzizya district too🎉 Subhan Allah ❤I performed Umrah several times May Allah swt bless you and your family ❤
I'm so happy for you! :) Ameen ameen. May Allah bless your Hajj immensely!
What package did u get? And what maktab did u get?
Alhamdulillah. Ameen. Jazak Allahu Khairan for sharing with us. I am hoping to go 2024 in sha Allah. But have bad knees. So, afraid a lot -- walking 16 miles? SubhanAllah.
Wa anta khair. Don’t be afraid, I was one of the youngest people there. There were older men and women, some of whom had bad knees, some of whom were above 70 years old!
You can use wheelchairs and transport to make things easier. I’d advise you go with an organisation, who can make these arrangements if needed.
@@raiseyourdeen jazak Allahu Khairan.
Beautiful explanation you melt my heart
Salaam alaykum! This video was great, and reading the comments was very informative too!
Are there plugs in the tents in Mina and muzdalifa?
I’m thinking about bringing a personal portable ac, but it needs an outlet.
Wa alaikum salaam! Glad you enjoyed it :)
In my tents in Mina and Muzdalifa there were plugs yes, and also USB sockets. (it was an Al-rajhi tent) But I can't speak for all tents as some of the cheaper ones may not have it.
I also brought 2 portable power packs just in case and did end up using one of them during those days.
@@raiseyourdeen JAK for responding. I think you mentioned somewhere you were going to do a video on things to take with you. If you could do it sooner rather than later, we would have time to prepare. If you could also consider a female perspective and include that too, that would be wonderful.
But just one quick question, what do you think about taking a personal, portable AC, like the brand Arctic Air Chill
@@Dr2thAche I did mention that. I am busy these days preparing for some important medical exams but I will try to make the video soon and I will speak to my mother as well for the female perspective. If I don't make it in time, please feel free to ask me questions or email me (raiseyourdeen@gmail.com)
Portable fan is definitely useful. The ones with the mist spray are amazing. They actually sell these fans in many of the markets there so you don't really need to take one. But if you want to, it will come in handy.
@7:22 must be a lovely friend. Top video ❤
He was a good one ;) Jazak'Allah bro
How much did the sacrifice cost?
Salam thanks for your informative video. Did they provide a guide to take you for each task throughout or were you left on your own?
Each group of ~25 people were given a “guide” via Nusuk. This was someone that has been for Hajj before or is familiar with the area. They were varied in how helpful they were and sometimes you had to ask them for help to get it. But yes, there is someone there to be your guide.
Alhamdulillah.
It was a blessing to be there.
I couldn’t stop smiling as you described my exact experience 2023 hajj. With the buses to Mina (the driver got lost it took hours) at Arafat a whole country expected to sort themselves out on getting on the buses as they arrived which was so unsafe, the very unclean toilets (forget about OCD’s the minute you land in Saudi)
Hajj is definitely not a vacation for sure and for those who are thinking of going just remember why you’re there and Sabr is all you need, PATIENCE and be very forgiving. I feel so humble after the trip.
May Allah SWT accept our hajj and May others experience it.
Yes alhamdulillah :)
Sounds like we had a very similar experience!
Completely agree Hajj is not easy and shouldn't be considered a vacation. And you definitely need to maintain a lot of patience!
Marshallah very concise & clear video insight to hajj expirence. With a open clear truthfull opinion / spoken advise.
Do you know if we can go individually without being with a package hajj group?
Thank you brother 😊
As far as I know you have to go with a group from the UK, that Nusuk assigns you to
Those Sandwishes were really good Al Hum Du Lil Allah. i Was in your tent as well from USA. Also I ended up waiting in the bathroom line that had a hole and i had to Use it but thank god it wasn't the big call lol. In Sha Allah i will be going again this year
Loved the sandwiches. Loved the fruit juices too! Those juices from the fridges were so refreshing 😃
Oh no that bathroom with the hole was just awful 😂 you are going to try again this year!? Mash’Allah
@@raiseyourdeen yes In Sha Allah. I will be taking my wife this time. We had 2 daughters so couldn’t take the wife last time but now her mom and my mom are here and ready to team up In Sha Allah!!!
Yes those juices were great but to be honest the meal needed some flavor. It was too blend even the bread surprisingly. They have done a great job on everything else.
And no i marked that bathroom in my heart. I still remember how the brother front of me from England was dancing and then literally started fighting to cut the other line after seeing the hole. Brother really had to go and kept screaming Al-Baic chicken got me might let me go please…!!😂😂😂
@@rahin90 haha insha’Allah fantastic news. So this time it’ll be you and your wife?
I agree with you brother the meals were quite bland. But Alhamdulillah I didn’t fall sick from eating them so can only be grateful. Plus, the juices were so good I didn’t mind 😅
Hahahahaha that is hilarious, I’m gonna tell my mum that toilet story 😂
@@raiseyourdeen yes In Sha Allah it will be With my wife. Last time I went with a package called mashair only from USA. it was a mess until the hajj started as everyone was panicking. Many people didn’t know what to do and Nusuk wasn’t giving any information. I wanted to help people moving forward and trying to find out how to become a guide. Reached out to Nusuk by as well no luck. Please let me know if you find out.
@@rahin90 the whole thing was a mess last year wasn't it. Nusuk were barely an improvement on Motawif. Still, at least we managed our Hajj alhamdulillah :)
I am keeping an eye out on all the Nusuk channels so I will highlight any information they give us insha'Allah
You are right washrooms must be cleaned nicely even though the rush never stops still hygiene is imp!! How difficult it is to spill harpik everytime someone makes it dirty? Secondly people also NEEEEEDDDDDD to behave nicely, no neeed for dhakkay and pushing and shoving in the bus or anywhere actually. People neeeedddd to understand and respect the journey they are on and make it easier for them and others
Jzk for the video. Can u please tell me if a luxury non shifting is selected can I still go to my hotel in Makkah during days of mina? Can’t find the info anywhere
Yes, you have your room for your entire Hajj stay so you could go to your room during the some of the days of Mina if you want to (although it will be far away so you will need to get a taxi/bus).
I'm sure you know that it is more rewarding to try and stay in Mina as much as possible during that time though.
Asalamualykum brother, thanks for the video. How was the walk from almuaisim to Jamarat? Jazakallahu khairan
Wa alaikum salaam. It actually was quite pleasant. It lasts about an hour due to the crowd limiting your speed. But there's lots of sheltered areas and fans on the way. You should take your own water spray as well - it helps a lot. It was okay honestly
brother you have more video haj journey i was also 52 tent in mina AL HAM DU LILA PLEASE UPLOAD MORE VIEO FOR YOU HAJ JOURNEY THIS IS ONLY YOUR EXPERIENCE VIDEO I HAVE NO VIDEO ANY VIDEO IN MINA TENT
I don’t have much footage to be honest as I was trying not to be distracted with filming
Salam Alykum, enjoyed your video... InshaAllah going trying to go this year. Do you recommend any package that you think is better? Coming from USA
Wa alaikum salaam. Have you chosen your package already? It depends on your budget but I'd recommend one with hotels as close to the mosques as possible.
Does Nusuk also provide air tickets or that we have to arrange by ourselves
Last year they also provided flights included in their packages, though there were also packages without flights as well
Salamu alykum brother thanks for this beautiful video, I have done my Nusuk registration and now ready to book. Do you know who’s guide company from London for al Rajhi group?
wa alaikum salaam, sorry for the delayed response. There are different guides for different al-Rajhi groups even from those flying from London, so I am not sure. Did you manage to book something akhi?
@@raiseyourdeen alhamdullilah I managed to book al Rajhi line 19 package is not a UK package but they had flight from London
Any advice Akhi
@@mameto1108 that’s good news Akhi. What do you need advice on? Congrats for having a booking.
lol @ let the crowd carry u. I know the feeling. Please let me know if u did a shifting or non shifting. And which would be better in terms of convenience. I just wonder if it’s possible to go back and forth to hotel that’s all to use showers etc
Hahaha. We did a shifting package. It depends what your priority is. If you want to have easy access to Masjid Haram during the days of Hajj then non-shifting is best. But shifting gives easy access to your hotel during the days of Mina.
I will say that with our non-shifting package, we did find getting to the Masjid a hassle sometimes. We would have to get a taxi (very pricey) or a bus (was always full) so a non-shifting may be better. I believe non-shifting is slightly more expensive as well.
If you want to use your hotel for showers or whatever during the days of Mina, then shifting is better.
Sorry for the delayed response.
Assalamu alaikum brother .. I configure the package on nusuk app and that time it was showing it just need to be confirmed or reserve and later when I open it is showing me that it has no space in the package . I wanted to know how will nusuk people reach us for with the preferred package . Email?
Wa alaikum salaam. Did you definitely book a place and did you manage to get a spot? If Nusuk didn’t send you a confirmation notice or email, I wouldn’t be confident you have a place
what is the recommendation to avoid crowdiness fir the first jamarat
You will be unable to avoid crowds. It is slightly less busy in the early morning so you can try to go as early as you can if you want to.
Salaam did you made the video? I’m not stressed or anything but I’m just asking hope it’s no pressure.. I love your journey to Makkah! My Cousin went to makkah
Wasalam yes I made the video. That’s awesome, have you ever been?
Alhamduillah and how are you?
@@luisxx6752 I’m well thanks for asking brother. Just taking a short break from making long videos at the moment.
Ok! Take your time I have no worries and keep up the content brother 😊
Asalamu Alaikum
Can I ask which one is better reservation between shifting and non shifting please? It's very struggling for me .
Jazak Allah khair
Wa alaikum salaam. I'm sorry there's no easy answer. Who's in your group? Are there any old/disabled people?
Assalamuwalaikum brother. Al Hum Du Lil Allah me and wife were able to secure a package for this year and Al Hum Du Lil Allah will be traveling to Hajj in 2024 again. i took al rajhi again hoping they would provide the same sandwiches😆😆🤣🤣🤣. Now I will wait for the video i suggested earlier. if you can make video on essitial medications to take with you to Hajj, how stay healthy during Haj specially what food to avoid, and alsot are the things to do if you get heat attacks before the medical help arrives. jazakallah.
Wa alaikum salaam brother. That’s amazing news mash’Allah congrats! The sandwiches and fruit juices were delicious 😋
I’m a bit sick at the moment brother but I will make this video in the months before Hajj insha’Allah
Ohh no!! i hope it's not something serious. May Allah recovers you fast. @@raiseyourdeen
looking forward to that new video brother because i am wondering the same!! @@raiseyourdeen
Hello brother, i am trying to select a package now from nusuk. Can you please suggest which zone to pick , there are options zone a zone b zone c zone d.
i want to know if zone d will be very far and difficult or can we manage?
Bcs looks like i cant afford zone a
Hi my husband is planning on going as well he is debating which package to have u found out or have any tips he’s going from USA 🇺🇸 thanks 🙏
@@sanner27 depends on how much you can afford … select accordingly… shifting package seems no use to me (as we wont be going to hotel during haj days) . So i am looking for non shifting packages and close to makkah zone b or zone c. If i cant afford zone c , i will select zone d. and i am considering to prefer albait ( heard good talk)
@@azeemasadath Salaam, sorry I couldn't respond to you earlier. I hope you managed to book a good package :)
Thank you for sharing. May Allah accept your duas.
What package did you choose? Was it Luxury Shifting by Ar Rajhi? I am currently in the stage of choosing the package for this year's Hajj inshaAllah. Do you recommend this one?
Sorry for the late reply. We chose Shifting basic package with Al Rajhi. Yes I would recommend Al Rajhi it was a good standard, they were one of the best providers
@@raiseyourdeensalaams, we are also thinking of booking with Al Rajhi but 1) heard very bad reviews from last year and 2)we are with a French group -would this be an issue for us as UK citizens?
@@lametube91 Wasalam, sorry for not responding for a while. What did you end up choosing?
Assalamualaikum brother did they check for covid vaccine
Wa alaikum salaam. They actually didn’t check ours- they didn’t seem to care. But we were told to bring our documentation so we did have it.
What vaccines are required? Do they check at the airport vaccine card?
Last year they asked us to take proof of Covid vaccination and our certificate of Yellow fever vaccination.
They did not check either of mine. But maybe they will check yours 🤷🏽♂️
Is there train to take from mina to harem
No I don’t think so
Eating strategy in order to avoid washroom? Any recommendations
I wouldn’t recommend changing what you eat as finding a washroom isn’t usually as bad as you might think.
But if you want to reduce your bowel motions, you could consider avoiding spicy fatty fried foods and prioritising rice, potatoes, bread, fruit and pasta
Can you tell your experience with nusuk? Is it easy? How does thé process work? Is everything included? Flight, hotel.... Is it better to do it through nusuk or your local angency would be better?
Thanks in advance
Nusuk were awful. I made a couple of videos of my experience at the time I was applying.
Here’s one of them: th-cam.com/video/nPs5BTatIxA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ydDNhOWDAHOCyTjY
It was not easy due to technical issues with their website, not registering bookings properly.
Everything is included in their packages- flights, hotels etc. Everyone had to book through Nusuk last year.
They haven’t announced what it will be like this year
Salam brother! which Camp were you in? Al Kabsh or Al Muaisim?
Al Muasim, the one that was further away from Jamarat. It took about an hour to walk from Amina to Jamarat
Jazak Allah brother. The longer the journey, the bigger the award In Sha Allah@@raiseyourdeen
Salam aleykoum brother, what do you think about having a hotel 7 km away from the masjid al haram during hajj period ? Good idea or not ?
Wa alaikum salaam, I think that is a bad idea. Sorry for not responding earlier. Hope you found a good package.
Salaam, thank you for your videos as they have been very knowledgeable as I have made an application this year. I and my wife have been approved alhamdulillah but waiting for package deals. Do you know roughly how much a 4 star non shifting package would be? Im mentally preparing for the costs as you can imagine. Also I do not wish to put funds into my e wallet as I am not sure of the costs. I have heard many people have issues with refunds so I wanted to know how much time do they give to make payment? Jazak allah.
Wasalam, may Allah make Hajj easy for you this year brother. Don't put finds into the wallet until packages come out. Cost depends on length of stay but for 14 days I'd guess, based on last year about £7-8k each.
I think they gave us 5 days to make the payment after booking but can't remember exactly sorry.
@@raiseyourdeen jazak allah brother, as always any information is very helpful. Roughly how long before hajj did they release package last year? Sorry for all the questions. There just really isnt much info online about this
Salaam, I was going thru some videos from last year Hajj. I found out on May 4 they released the packages which means just 1 and a half month before Hajj.
Hopefully they do this year early InshaAllah. @@mashudahmed5276
@@mashudahmed5276 It was quite late notice and badly organised. I believe Hajj was to begin at the end of June and the packages came out (without any notification) in the middle of May.
@@raiseyourdeen salaam, is there any specific providers you would recommend and ones you would avoid? I heard al bait is good? Any others?
Salaam Brother can I ask which is better shifting or non shifting package. As shifting package you need to stay at Aziziya does this make it difficult to get to masjid Haram to do salah ? But at the same time does this make arriving at Mina faster
Wasalam. I had a shifting package. Each one has its own benefit and downside.
- Shifting = Move to Azizyah halfway through. This made getting to Masjid Haram difficult. We had to take a bus or taxi to get there. However when the days of Mina started, Azizyah is within walking distance so it was beneficial to be able to walk from Jamarat and Mina back to our hotel.
- Non-shifting will be nice for being able to easily access the Haram before the 10th Dhul Hajj but then Mina becomes more inconvenient. As you have nowhere to stay other than Mina.
I actually think the Shifting package was slightly better overall. But both have their benefits.
Hope that made sense.
@raiseyourdeen thank so much brother it makes perfect sense however my only concern is that my husband and I want to have a twin room and don’t wish to share with others in Azizyah, is this possible as I heard that their are only quad rooms. Also is it possible to get 5 star in Azizyah ?
@@ParveenAkhtar-nn6rx I was in Azizyah with my mother and we managed to get a twin room. I know other couples had to separate into shared rooms for men and women. It just depends what package you book.
Make sure when you book on Nusuk that it is twin occupancy and it should be fine insha’Allah.
I can’t remember but 4 star and 5 star hotels are very similar so don’t worry about that.
@@raiseyourdeen Thanks so much for your feedback it is much appreciated. May Allah reward you for your help.
Asslam alaikom, thank you for all the infos, so as I understand the shifting opt works like this: arrive from outside Makkah, then to the hotel (still don't know where), then to azizya on the 8th , settle and then to Mina, after all of the steps back to azizya and then next to haram, right?
Great comments. I travelled from Sweden with Al Rajhi too but placed at Camp 51 (just next to yours). Everything went fine for us from Sweden except that we arrived late into Mudzalifah so our camps were taken over by someone elses. I went in to Camp 52 instead. 😅. May Allah accepts our Hajj. I wonder which hotel did the UK/US stated in Makkah and the price you're paying for your package if u dont mind sharing.
Salaam brother. Alhamdulillah glad to hear your trip went smoothly (other than Muzdalifa!) We stayed in the Swiss Al maqam hotel in Makkah and then Holiday Inn at Azizyah. Paid about £12k (very expensive 😬) How about you brother?
Salaam brother. Will you recommend for Al Rajhi for us who intend to go this year? If I understand correctly, did you choose shifting package?
I only book the ’cheapest’ package available which timed perfectly with my holiday. It was ’cheaper’ campared to yours around 10K euros. I didnt think that we had the shifting vs non shifting package in Sweden last year. I stayed all the way anyhow at Holiday Inn in Aziziyah. The location of hotel is far ca 40min walk. They have shuttle busses to Haram every 20min or so but they shut down the services 2 days before Hajj and resumed a bit late after Hajj. So it was a trouble. To get to haram from hotel was ok with taxi, though they are charging extensively but I had the help from Allah to pay around 30 riyal per trip (i shared with canadian brother so the cost was only 15 riyal). But coming back from haram by taxi needs miracle 😄. Millions of people fighting for cars.
Our luggages stayed at Holiday Inn through out the journey. We moved to Mina with the european camp where I had the same huge room with Sweden, Finland and Norway. I had no big expectation so everything felt ’wow’ for me. Subhanallah. No real complaints.
Although Allah made it easy for me, I heard that some canadian pilgrims did not get rheir hotel rooms for 2 days and did not get bed reserved for them in Mina. Maybe the admin somehow miscounted them. So it went bad for them. More ajr insyaAllah for their patience and experience.
The biggest negative i would say that since Al-Rajhi made partnership with local travel agents in Sweden, my group did not receive any real guidance. Everyone was technically on their own when it comes to doing the ibadah itself. So you have to have the knowledge.
But Al Rajhi provided sheikh at each camp and whatsapp number to call or text if you need help. They have been very helpful.
The location of european camp to jamarat is quite far but it is a good walk and you are there to do ibadat- of course if you have some physical hindrance then not to choose Al-Rajhi or any other provider that has camp at muaisim.
All in all, travel there with the mindset of leaving everything to Allah and for Hajj. Be patience and make doa- a lot! InsyaAllah you will be fine
Assalam Alayekum, which package have you selected for hajj ?
Wa alaikum salaam. Sorry for not responding earlier, we chose the al-rajhi package. Have you chosen one already?
Salaam Brother
Can I ask how long did you have to walk to jamarat for pelting stones of shaitan? And also can I ask, did you have a 5 star package ?
Yes we had a 5 star package.
It took about an hour to walk to Jamarat from Mina, as you're in a heavy crowd. Takes about 30mins to pelt the stones and do duas (take longer if you wish).
@@raiseyourdeen thank you so much for the prompt reply. It doesn’t seem fair that the Pakistani passport holders have their tents closet to jamarat so only takes 10 minutes to walk but western tents are located far away from jamarat. Is it possible to get a VIP tent as some packages are showing tents close to the Jamarat. For example if you choose the MAJAR AL - KABSH camp , this is located no more than 700 metres from jamarat however if you choose AL MUAISIM CAMP, this is located 4km away. Can I ask which camp you were in ?
What did you put in your spray bottle? Just water or something else
I think he might filled with H2O, Need to confirm with @raiseyourdeen brother
Just water
Assalamoalikom, jazaka'Allah for the video, very informative, that Nusuk is just disgraceful. all packages that i selected are flying from either Germany or France! not sure how to filter so only UK flights are showing - did you face the same problem? thanks
Wa alaikum salaam. Sorry for the delayed response. You're welcome :) . Nusuk was rubbish last year too. Lots of uncertainty right until the very last minute. We had plenty of packages flying from Manchester and London though. How did you get on, did you find anything?
three last questions brother - which book did you take to Mina brother?
and when you said there was a mistake made at 9:10, was that because of the transportation from Arafat to Muzdalifah? Or from your Azizyah hotel to Muzdalifah? JazakAllah Khair
And lastly, 13:59, you mentioned you had to walk half the way to Mina - but did Al Rajhi promise you transportation from the Tawaf Ziyarah to Mina? Or was that another mistake they made?
1. I think it was "The Life of the Prophet Muhammad SAW" by Tahia al-Ismail
2. 9:10 i was talking about the transportation from Mina to Muzdalifa but I didn't take any footage of it so I just showed the hotel instead.
3. They only had limited transport at the busiest times (afternoon and early evening) and thoses buses were packed, on a first come first served basis. So we decided to make our own way there. They never actually promised anything tbh. Most people were making their own way anyway.
Let me know if that wasn't clear or if you have any more questions :)
Jazak Allah brother for all your help. May Allah reward you 🤲🏼@@raiseyourdeen
Did you go for the VIP package? or was it non VIP?
I assume you mean the Mina camps - we went with standard camp (1hr walk from Jamarat)
What's the cheapest I can go for?
Depends where you’re travelling from. If from the UK, about £5K per person is the cheapest (shared accommodation, small number of days, no luxury)
@@raiseyourdeen that's crazy, what do they do with 5000
@@PrisonerOfWar99 I imagine they laugh while they take it to the bank haha. I agree it's crazy prices
People need to understand especially the Westerners you’re not going there for vacation so don’t expect vacation treatment. I know you pay too much but still you only go there for the sake of Allah those perhaps who is doing the research to go there please keep in mind my comment thank you and good luck, and God bless you all, may Allah make your journey ease.
That's a good point. I think it's the massive amounts of money that Saudi charge Westerners that leads them to expect a good experience in return though.
Isnt it bad that they don’t treat everyone same?? All of those people are hajjis. Who gave them the right to discriminate??
I agree. Sadly it’s all about money in Saudi 😕
