Oooh the photos are wonderful! InshAllah I get to see the real mosque someday.
I cried when I saw this. Mashallah thank you so much sister, this is beautiful. I just love the women in all-white. I was surprised actually to see so many in black. And mashallah for you hotel, wow! Love you and glad you had a wonderful time.
Ellen: inshallah you will :)
Lisa: it is really beautiful. I don't know why but most women here wear black, except for some traditional costumes. Very few are in white, although it is very beautiful. Love!
These pictures are beautiful mashallaaaah I especially love the one called "14" http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_OAWtWAtSe_k/Sg6jJLpAT9I/AAAAAAAAAH0/dv6S7kLv8Aw/s320/14.jpg
Thanks Jaz!
wow. Seeing it through ur lenses made it feel soo real and me so so small. Didnt realize how a simple picture can move one so much so as to tear a little.
I recently felt the want to perform e umrah. Seeing these rekindled that want. But it also makes me feel so undeserving of going to such a place. Booo you're making a guy cry.
Marzuki: if you feel that need you should definitely go, if you can! I felt that need very strongly and masha'Allah it was the best and most rewarding experience of my (short) life. I would live there if I could.
Looking at these pics again made me tear up too!
