Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
I pray that you are all well and in the best state of Imaan, Ameen!
I honestly dont know where to start from, so: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Yes, Im the Sister that went to do Umrah on the 12th April till what was supposed to be the 26th of April, but to my surprise it turned out to be the 27th April
the best 2 weeks of this year (I know the rest of the year hasnt passed, but I know that this is the highlight of my year...infact LIFE) Alhamdulillah! 
So, as Bajee (that’s Sweet Sister Nomee) already knows my health before I went, I’ll fill the rest of you in, (It’s a real sad story, you might want to get the box of tissues out)
I was terribly ill, it was horrible, I had the flu (not the swine flu, just the normal, flu, but it was bad because I couldn’t move, and just slept most of the time…not because of laziness, but because I was ill, and was taking lots of medication, and was drowsy from that) Anyways, it really had taken over me, and the only thing I could do was pray really hard that Id recover from it quickly, as I didn’t want to be ill, and not be able to do my Umrah to the best of my ability, and plus I wanted to support and help my parents, I didn’t want it to be the other way around. We had so many guests coming over the night before, we were leaving at about 5am, so I secretly went off at night to do my final good bye at my Bros house, met my Sis n law, and nephs, it was sad, yes I cried.
Got back home, then my Sister decides to go home, as its late, so I meet her, and yes more tears.
Crying seems like an easy thing, and most people can bottle it all up, but I cant, because when you are setting out for a journey like Umrah, you should seek forgiveness of others, as its really important, as you don’t want people to hold the slightest grudge against you, as then your Umrah will not be valid until you have sought forgiveness from that person, and then of course its all about presenting yourself infront of the House of Allah Ta’lah and then at Roza e Mubarak, and plus its supposed to remind you off death aswell and if any tears are to be shed, they shall be for them reasons, from my behalf anyway, Inshallah
Anyways I went to bed at 12am, and then slept, Amme Jee and Abu Jee stayed awake and I think my brother stayed awake too, I would of done too, but I think the medicines kicked in again.
So that’s the sad part of before I was going.
Its 4am, I’m awake and so excited, I’m going to wear my Ihram on the plane when its stops in Riyadh, so I just wear a new Jilbaab now, the Naat Shareef Sher come to mind: Sohnay Sohnay Kapray Paakay Maang Saja Kay Surma Paa Kay, Naalay Kar Kay Haar Singhaar Chalye Sher Madinay Nu!
I’m well excited!!!!!! I’ve been waiting for this my whole life, everything has to be done perfectly, Inshallah!
My whole fams awake, I read my 2 Nafil for the journey and Shukraanay, and then read my Salaat ul Fajr, everyones ready, we do our last checks for everything we need, I have everything I need, so Im good to go, in my excitement I’m the first one to meet everyone and then rush out to my elder brothers car, and buckle up, and then followed by everyone else whos going that’s: Abu Jee, Ammi Jee, my 2 Bros whol are older (emhasis on OLDER) than me, my Sis n Law and my little niece, for some reason they all stop outside the front door and start reading Dua, (I was so excited I forgot to read mine, it’s a departing Dua that your supposed to read when you leave your home….and heres me sitting in the car)
so I go and do that.
Airport time: it was a long one don’t ask, it was a bit of a hassle at the desk, but Alhamdulillah we got through it at the end, Menu Sohnay Ne Bulaya Mein Madinay Chalee Aa! They said our names on the mic….you know I felt like royalty then. ;D
More to come tomorrow, Inshallah
Fi Aminillah
