To enhance your Umrah journey, I recommend reading "The Ultimate Guide to Umrah" by Abu Muneer Ismail Davids, which provides practical tips and spiritual guidance for your pilgrimage. Also, "In the Footsteps of the Prophet: Lessons from the Life of Muhammad" by Tariq Ramadan can offer deep insights into the spiritual significance of your visit. For a comprehensive travel companion, consider “Lonely Planet Saudi Arabia” for up-to-date travel advice and cultural tips. If you prefer digital resources, the official Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah website has excellent guides and checklists. Let me know if you’d like me to reserve any of these books for you before your trip!

About the destination

Mecca or Makkah located in western Saudi Arabia, is the holiest city in Islam. Every year millions of pilgrims flock to Mecca. As a result there has been a lot of construction to cater for the accommodation of the pilgrims, and extensions to the mosque itself. Non-Muslims are not allowed to enter the holy city. Mecca also has a very rich history as it is a very old city which has been considered sacred since the early Middle Ages. In Mecca’s city center there is the Sacred Mosque, considered the holiest site in Islam. The Kaaba is located at the center of the Sacred Mosque, all Muslims pray in the direction of Kaaba, believed to have been originally built by Adam and rebuilt by Abraham and his son Ishmael. Other major sites to see in Mecca are Mina, the Hill of Arafat and Jabal Rahma, the cave Jabal Al Thur and Masjid e Taneem Mosque. Undeniably, Mecca is one of the most spiritual places on Earth.
