A Day in Makkah
Today proceeded to the Masjid AlHaram eagerly anticipating seeing the Kabah. We rounded the corner from the Hotel and there! Right in front of us! A sight that many dream of seeing - a most magnificent structure - massive, intimidating, beautiful, majestic - an outlying courtyard of lily white marble floor leading up to walls of grayish colored marble tiles with huge 30 ft tall doors of gold trim, each door bearing it's own name - the sanctuary of Makkah - Masjid AlHaram.
Makkah
On the Plane to Jeddah
We boarded the flight to Jeddah about 2:30 and set off for a 11 hour flight. About 10 hours into the flight, we passed over the Meeqaat. The Meeqaat is an imaginary boundary around Makkah. Those who are coming for 'Umrah or Hajj must be in the state of Ihraam at this point. At the Meeqaat, the hopeful haji will also begin the recitation of the Talbiya -
Labaik Allahhumma Labaik
Labaika laa shareeka laka labayk
Innal hamda wa ni'matta laka wal mulk
laa shareeka lak.
Here I am O Allah (in response to Your call), here I am
Here I am, You have no partner, here I am.
Indeed all Praise and Sovereignty belong to You.
You have no partner.
