It is always difficult to leave the City of Peace, the City of our Prophet ﷺ, Al Madinah Al Munawwarah. You always leave wishing you had read more durood, paid greater attention in salaah, regretting that you didn’t read enough Qur’aan. You always leave wishing you had just done more. But that is what was … Continue reading Monday – 22/01/2024 | Madinah to Johannesburg
Sunday – 21/01/2024 | The Last Day in Madinah

Today, I woke up at 3pm in time for zohr. After reading salaah (zohr first and then asr) and freshening up, I went to Bin Dawood to buy some food. Bin Dawood is honestly my favourite grocery store. It has absolutely everything and you can actually get lost walking through the many floors. I stopped … Continue reading Thursday – 18/01/2023 | Jummah ni raat in Madinah
