• Makkah al-Mukkaramah and Medina are sacred places and heavenly bliss

• The word Makkah came from Bakkah which means destroy, eliminate and annihilate

• Scholars agree that these words are referring to the destroying of the hill or the elimination of show-off attitude in human heart


• If we are not able to control ourselves from bragging, it might become a nature to us.

• Although Makkah and Medina are surrounded by dry hills, Muslims around the world still making the efforts to get there.

• Prophet said:

والله إنك لغير أرض الله، وأحب أرض الله علي ولو ال أني خرجي منك ما

• It is stated that whoever prays at these places (Makkah and Medina), the prayer is equivalent to 100 thousand of prayers,

• Similarly, whoever fasts at these places, his one day fasting is equal to 100 thousand days of fasting,

• In the same way, whoever make donates one dirham, his donation is equal to 100 thousand of dirham


• Furthermore, those who recites the whole book of Quran, his recitation is the same as 100 thousands recitations

• And last but not least, whoever make a zikr once, his zikr would be awarded by 100 thousands times of rewards

• We hope that the pilgrims visiting the sacred places visit with sincere heart, avoiding from any kind of show-off attitude and not spending more than the needs or spend using unlawful sources


• Reflect this hadeeth:

There is no other reward for Haji Mabrur except heaven

الحج مبرور ليس له الجزاء إال الجنة
