										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.al-khair.org/blog/history-of-safa-and-marwa/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Safa and Marwa</a> are the two Holy Hills situated in <strong>Makkah</strong>.&nbsp; The memories of sacred <strong>Safa and Marwa&nbsp;</strong>Hills&nbsp;belongs to Bibi Hajra and Prophet Ismail (A.S). Prophet Ibrahim (A.S) was commanded by Allah to leave His wife Bibi Hajra and son Hazrat Ismail (A.S) <span id="more-164"></span>in the desert of Arab (presently Mecca) near Safa and Marwa. Ibrahim (A.s) is the Prophet of Allah and He must fulfill the orders of His Lord. So He left His wife and child in the desert alone with a jug of water. When the jug of water ended infant Ismail (A.S) was crying for water than her mother complete seven rounds between the Safa and Marwa for the seeking of water and at the certain place from where She couldn’t able to see Her son, She ran fast.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/safa-marwa-old.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-502" src="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/safa-marwa-old.jpg" alt="Safa marwa history - Al-Khair" width="490" height="416"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>An old picture of Safa Marwa Sa&#8217;i,&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>This act of Bibi Hajra is accepted by Allah and all the Pilgrims from that time till the day of judgment are ordered to complete seven rounds between <strong>Safa and Marwa</strong> in the memory and sacrifice of Bibi Hajra in every <a href="http://www.al-khair.org/umrah-packages.php">Umrah</a>. Even the portion where Bibi Hajra ran between Safa and Marwa, Pilgrims are ordered to run. These seven rounds between Safa and Marwa is called Sai. This was the reason which make two ordinary Hills&nbsp;the sacred and Holy places of Muslims.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/safa.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-503" src="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/safa.jpg" alt="Safa Marwa - Al-Khair " width="279" height="181"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>When Flood entered in the Haram e Kaaba and Sa&#8217;i Area,&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>Basically the order of Allah to Ibrahim (A.S) is the trier by Allah as Ibrahim was blessed with son at very old age and another reason behind this order that in future Ismail and Ibrahim (A.S) have to build the <strong>Holy Kaaba</strong>. This sacrifice is base foundation of Khana e Kaaba and ZamZam water.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/mawa-blog.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-504" src="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/mawa-blog.jpg" alt="Safa Marwa History - Al-Khair" width="550" height="413"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;<strong>Pilgrims are busy in Dua after completing their Sa&#8217;i at Mount Marwa.&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>Let <a href="http://www.al-khair.org"><strong>Al-Khair</strong></a> be your partner to witness these sacred places of Islam through which one can seek the blessing of Allah and the pay the tribute to the great sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim, Ismail (A.S) and Bibi Hajra. <strong>Al-Khair</strong> provides best services and peace of mind to the guests of Allah so they concentrate on their Ibadaat, <a href="http://www.al-khair.org/umrah-packages.php"><strong>Umrah</strong> </a>and other holy duties.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span data-sheets-value="{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;why is safa and marwa important&quot;}" data-sheets-userformat="{&quot;2&quot;:513,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;12&quot;:0}">Why is safa and marwa important?</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Masjid Al-Haraam in Makkah features two historical mountains/hills, Safa and Marwah &#8230; Actually, the service of performing Sa&#8217;ee pays tribute to the story of Hajar&#8217;s search for water for her child.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><span data-sheets-value="{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;who ran between safa and marwa&quot;}" data-sheets-userformat="{&quot;2&quot;:513,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;12&quot;:0}">who ran between safa and marwa?</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><b>&#8220;Bibi hajra&#8221; </b>run between&nbsp;the hills of&nbsp;<b>Safa and Marwah</b>&nbsp;seven times.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Why do we run between Safa and Marwa?</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">This represents Hagar&#8217;s search for water for her son Ismail.&nbsp;Muslims believe Ismail struck his foot on the ground, which led to a spring of water that emerged. Pilgrims then run between the hills of <strong>Safa and Marwah</strong> seven times.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hajj is a once-in-a-lifetime journey. It is a time for deep worship, self-reflection, and spiritual growth. But many pilgrims, especially first-timers, often make simple mistakes. These mistakes can cause stress, confusion, or even stop someone from completing their Hajj properly.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this guide, we will share the <strong><a href="https://al-khair.org/10-common-mistakes-during-hajj/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">top 10 common mistakes during Hajj</a></strong> and how you can <strong>avoid them</strong>. If you are planning for <strong><a href="https://al-khair.org/hajj/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hajj 2025</a>-2026</strong>, this article will help you have a smoother and more peaceful journey.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. <strong>Not Learning the Hajj Rituals Before the Trip</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Some pilgrims think they will learn everything after reaching Makkah. But the <a href="https://al-khair.org/manasiks-of-hajj/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hajj rituals</a> are many, and the days are very busy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Study the steps of Hajj in advance. Learn <a class="wpil_keyword_link" href="https://al-khair.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="about" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">about</a> Ihram, Tawaf, Sa’i, Mina, Arafat, Muzdalifah, and the animal sacrifice. Watch videos, read guides, or attend <a href="https://al-khair.org/hajj/hajj-training-videos/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hajj training</a> sessions before you leave.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. <strong>Wearing the Ihram Incorrectly</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Many men do not wear the <a href="https://al-khair.org/ihram/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ihram</a> properly. Some also use safety pins or stitched clothing, which is not allowed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Practice wearing Ihram at home before your journey. Know the rules of what you can and cannot do in Ihram. Ask your group leader for help if you are not sure.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. <strong>Not Controlling Anger or Emotions</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Hajj can be hard—long walks, heat, and big crowds. Some pilgrims lose patience and argue or shout.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Remember, Hajj is about <strong>patience and peace</strong>. Stay calm and remind yourself why you are there. Say “Astaghfirullah” or “La ilaha illallah” when you feel angry. Stay in wudu, and avoid useless talk.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. <strong>Getting Lost from the Group</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> With millions of people, it’s easy to lose your group, especially in Mina and Arafat.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Stay close to your group. Wear an ID badge with your group name, <a class="wpil_keyword_link" href="https://al-khair.org/hotels/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="hotel" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">hotel</a>, and phone number. Carry a mobile phone with enough balance and battery. Always decide on a <strong>meeting point</strong> in case you get separated.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. <strong>Ignoring Health and Hygiene</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Some people don’t take care of cleanliness or eat unsafe food. This can cause sickness or infections.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Carry hand sanitizer, wet wipes, and tissues. Wear a face mask in crowded areas. Drink clean water and avoid street food. If you feel unwell, visit a doctor or ask your group leader for help.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">6. <strong>Missing Important Hajj Days or Acts</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Some people sleep through important acts like standing in Arafat or collecting pebbles for Jamarat.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Make a <a href="https://al-khair.org/checklist-of-things-you-should-take-on-hajj-and-umrah-journey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">checklist of the Hajj</a><strong> days and acts</strong>. Set reminders on your phone or ask someone to wake you up. Don’t rely only on your group. Take charge of your own Hajj.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">7. <strong>Focusing Only on Taking Photos</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Many pilgrims spend more time taking selfies and videos than praying or remembering Allah.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Photos are fine, but don’t let them take away your focus. <strong>Use your eyes and heart</strong> to enjoy the moment. Take a few pictures and then put your phone away.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">8. <strong>Not Following the Sunnah Way</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Some people follow others blindly without checking if the action is from Sunnah or not.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Always learn the correct Sunnah way of doing each act. For example, don’t push during Tawaf, don’t scream while throwing stones at Jamarat, and don’t make <a href="https://al-khair.org/places-where-dua-is-accepted-during-hajj/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dua</a> loudly in groups unless needed. Keep it simple and as the Prophet (PBUH) did.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">9. <strong>Carrying Too Much Luggage</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Many pilgrims bring big bags filled with unnecessary items. This becomes a burden during the journey.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Pack only what you need. Bring light clothes, travel-size toiletries, and important documents. Keep one small bag for daily use. Leave space in your luggage for gifts or <a href="https://al-khair.org/what-are-the-benefits-of-zamzam-water/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">zamzam water</a> on return.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">10. <strong>Not Making Enough Dua and Dhikr</strong></h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Mistake:</strong> Some people focus only on the physical acts and forget the main goal—<strong>to connect with Allah</strong>.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to Avoid:</strong><br>Keep a small dua book or list with you. Use free time for <strong>zikr, tasbeeh, and reflection</strong>. Talk to Allah in your own language. Hajj is your chance to ask for forgiveness, peace, and blessings.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Final Thoughts</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hajj is a beautiful journey, but it also needs <strong>preparation, patience, and planning</strong>. Most mistakes happen because people are not fully ready. The more you prepare before you go, the better your Hajj experience will be.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Avoiding these <a href="https://al-khair.org/common-mistakes-made-by-pilgrims-during-hajj/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">common mistakes</a> will help you:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stay safe</li>



<li>Stay focused</li>



<li>Complete your Hajj peacefully</li>



<li>Earn more reward from Allah (SWT)</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">May Allah accept your Hajj, forgive your sins, and bring you back home with a clean heart. Ameen.</p>

<p>The Mecca City is of great significance in Islam and considered one of the most valuable holy place, where every single moment, Allah (SWT) showers His blessings.<span id="more-28"></span>&nbsp;For a single good deed, we are surely awarded 100,000 virtues. There are many places which have their religious and historical values. The main places to visit in Mecca is Khana e Ka’aba where your prayers come true at very first sight and that is the promise of ALLAH.</p>
<p><strong>1. Masjid ul Haraam (The Grand Mosque)&nbsp;أَلمَسْجِد أَلحَرَام</strong></p>
<p>The Holiest place in Mecca is Masjid ul Haraam as Khana e Kaaba (&nbsp;<span dir="rtl" lang="ar">ٱلْكَعْبَة ٱلْمُشَرَّفَة</span>‎ ) is in this mosque along with Zam Zam (&nbsp;زَمْزَم ) Well, Maqam e Ibrahimi and many other sites. Masjid ul Haraam is the most sacred place and mosque of Islam where Pilgrims get 100,000 virtues and blessings for the single good deed.</p>
<p><strong>2. Hajra-e-Aswad (&nbsp;ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلْأَسْوَد )</strong></p>
<p>Hajra-e-Aswad is the Black stone attached in south wall of ka’aba, which is believed to come from Jannat (paradise), installed primarily by Hazrat Adam (A.S) and later by our beloved Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H).</p>
<p><strong>3. MAQAM E IBRAHIM (&nbsp;مَـقَـام إِبْـرَاهِـيْـم )</strong></p>
<p>Opposite to Hajra e Aswad there is the <strong>MAQAM E IBRAHIM</strong> (Station of ABRAHAM) where hazrat Ibrahim (A.S) stood the during the construction of Ka’aba. Muslims are commanded by ALLAH to offer two rakats of Salat (namaz) behind MAQAM E IBRAHIM.</p>
<p><strong>4. Safah and Marwah&nbsp;(&nbsp;<span dir="rtl" lang="ar">المروة</span>‎,الصّفا )</strong></p>
<p>Safa and Marwa are other blessed places where pilgrims have to complete seven rounds between these two hills in the memory of Hazrat Ismail (عليه السلام) and His mother Bibi Hajra.</p>
<p><strong>5</strong>. <strong>The Birthplace of our Holy Prophet&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>The Birthplace of our Holy Prophet&nbsp;is situated outside the Bab e Marwah (Marwah gate). Nowadays this place is converted into a library under Saudi government supervision. Visitors come here and recite Darood Sharif on beloved Prophet (P.B.U.H).</p>
<p><strong>6. Jabl e Abu Qabees (&nbsp;جبل أبو قبيس )</strong></p>
<p>Near to the Birthplace of our Holy Prophet, there is a mountain known as <strong>Jabl e Abu Qabees </strong>where&nbsp;Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) split the moon into two parts.</p>
<p><strong>7. Jannat al-Mu&#8217;alla</strong><strong>&nbsp;(&nbsp;جنة المعلاة /&nbsp;مقبرة المعلاة )</strong></p>
<p>Jannat ul Mu’alla also known as &#8221;&nbsp;<strong>Al-Hajun&#8221;</strong> is the most famous cemetery after J<strong>anna tul Baqi</strong>, Jannat ul Mualla is situated very near to Masjid ul Haraam in Mecca where many Family members and Companion (Sahaba) of Prophet Muhammad(&nbsp;صلى الله عليه وسلم ) are buried including Hazrat Khadija (Prophet’s first wife), Hazrat Qasim (Prophet’s eldest son) Hazrat Abdullah (Prophet’s younger son) along with Asma Bint AbuBaker, Hazrat Abdullah Bin Zubair. his ancient cemetery was respected even before the birth of Mohamed (PBUH), and remains so to this day.</p>
<p><strong>8.&nbsp;Jabl e Noor (جبل النور)</strong></p>
<p>Another Holy mountain in Mecca is <strong>Jabl e Noor</strong> where Prophet Muhammad use to talk (P.B.U.H) to Allah through Waheeh (&nbsp;وحي ). People climb to that cave known as <strong>Ghar e Hira</strong>&nbsp;(&nbsp;غَـار حِـرَاء) for supplications.</p>
<p><strong>9. Mina</strong></p>
<p>From some distance to Masjid e Haram there is the ground Known as<strong> Mina</strong> which is the primary destination of pilgrims to start Hajj. Mina is also known as The City of Camps where three pillars represent the temptations of Satan and Hajis stone pebels to them in memory of Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S).</p>
<p><strong>10. Arafat (عَرَفَات)</strong></p>
<p>After Mina there is ground Known as <strong>Maidan e Arafat</strong> where all the pilgrims gather to listen to the Hajj Sermon.</p>
<p><strong>11. Muzdalifa&nbsp; (مُزْدَلِفَة)</strong></p>
<p>At the end of Arafat, pilgrims visit Muzdalifa; it is four kilometers long and covers an area of 12.25 square kilometers where pilgrims spend a night and <strong>worship to ALLAH</strong> and collect the pebbles to stoning the Satan.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>A Beginner’s Travel Guide to Bali, Indonesia&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Introduction&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Bali is a rite of passage for anyone who wishes to travel around the world. The gorgeous city of Bali provides you with long stretches of idyllic coastlines, rice terraces, stunning beaches, and captivating sunsets. The overall experience will leave you enthralled. If you are traveling solo for the first time then Bali is the perfect destination for you.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Affordable Travel&nbsp;Packages to Bali</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The cost of travel in Bali is one of the most affordable compared to other tourist destinations such as North America and Europe. This is one of the reasons why Bali is such a popular travel destination, as it offers value for your money while you travel in style.&nbsp; At Al.Khair we offer customized travel packages for family and friends to the make the most of their holiday destination to BALI.&nbsp; From Indonesia visa to Indonesia Airline <a class="wpil_keyword_link" href="https://al-khair.org/tickets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="tickets" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">tickets</a> and other local transportation within the city and outskirts, we manage all. We select the best tourist sites for you to wander. Exotic destinations, best shopping arenas and foods are always in our package list. We believe to make your holiday vacation as memorable as possible. Special Bali Honeymoon packages are also available upon request. Besides, you can add places to visit in Bali of your own choice and even can customized itinerary as per your choice of things to do. Travel with comfort and ease and collect joys and memories with wonderful travel experience with Al. Khair.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Why Should You Visit Bali?</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">No matter the weather, Bali is an exotic city, packed with adventures. There are many iconic destinations for you to visit. A trip to Bali is bound to be one you will never forget. As one of the most popular tourist destinations in all of Asia, Bali is known for its hospitality. The rich culture and the natural beauty of the landscapes will inspire you to go exploring. The best thing <a class="wpil_keyword_link" href="https://al-khair.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="about" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">about</a> Bali is that it is a food lover&#8217;s haven as much as it is an adventure seeker’s or a beach bum’s. It is nearly impossible to get bored in Bali.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>When to visit Bali?</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Island of Bali is situated close to the equator so you will experience dry and rainy weather throughout the year. The temperate climate is perfect for travel. We recommend traveling during the dry season i.e April to October so that you can spend most of your time sunbathing. The dry season is also the busiest time of the year which results in a hike in accommodation and travel costs. If you wish to make the most out of your trip and stick to a budget we recommend traveling during the rainy seasons. Aside from the occasional rainstorm you will find the best deals and find the top destination to be a lot less crowded, which is perfect for vlogs. Keep in mind that the hottest month in Bali is May (averaging 28°C/82°F) and the coldest month is January (averaging 26°C/79°F).&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How Long to Spend in Bali?</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Bali is a relatively small Island but there is a lot to explore. The itinerary for Bali is a minimum of seven days but we promise you that even if you were to spend two weeks in Bali, you wouldn&#8217;t run out of things to do.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Top 10 sites to visit in Bali&nbsp;</strong></p>



<ol class="wp-block-list" type="1"><li><strong>Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary&nbsp;</strong></li><li><strong>Uluwatu Temple&nbsp;</strong></li><li><strong>Sanur Beach</strong></li><li><strong>Nusa Lembongan</strong></li><li><strong>Lovina</strong></li><li><strong>Pura Luhur Uluwatu</strong></li><li><strong>Mount Batur</strong></li><li><strong>Kuta Beach</strong></li><li><strong>Pura Besakih</strong></li><li><strong>Tanah Lot</strong></li></ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Hotels and Accommodation in Bali</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With a smaller budget, you will be staying at homestays, guest houses, and smaller hotels. The cost of accommodation will vary from $10 to $20 per night. You will find that the rooms are decent and you have great breakfast options even in smaller hotels. Such hotels and guesthouses are located in the city center but even if you have to travel to get to the main commercial area, you can easily hire a scooter to get around. That will cost you $5 per day.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Renting a villa in Bali is not expensive and you will be surprised how luxurious a night’s stay at the villa could be if you were to rent it for approximately $50 per night. This is perfect if you are traveling with a group of friends and want to find affordable accommodation.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Best Food in Bali</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Depending on where you are eating, the prices of food can vary. The experience and overall ambiance of the place also make a significant difference. Beside you can experience the local and international cuisine of your choice food. The most expensive places to eat are usually the Seminyak and Ulywantu but you will get to try world-renowned Indonesian chefs.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">North Bali, Ubud, and Canggu offer you affordable options and if you are budget conscious we recommend trying the small local restaurants. You can get a decent meal for as low as $1 and $3 if you are trying out small local eateries.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Wine and Beer tend to be more expensive and most tourists are surprised to find out that alcohol is marked up by 300%. Bottled water is also considerably taxed for tourists.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Cost of Transport in Bali&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Renting a scooter is the most common form of transportation in Bali even though it can be dangerous due to traffic on the Island. Bikes are also quite popular and are used by local travelers to get around. Both these options are super affordable and give you the freedom to travel around the region. A scooter will cost you $4 to travel around the town for a day and the cost of filling up the tank is $2.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Average Travel Cost in Bali</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Keeping in mind the different costs of travel, and mid-range spending we believe that you can spend up to $61 per day as a person traveling and exploring Bali. The average accommodation cost is $35 and local transportation will cost you $7. Meals and entertainment can cost you up to $15-20.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>How to get to Bali?</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you wish to travel to Bali from Pakistan the cheapest way is to fly. The cost of airfare is $400 and the travel time is approximately 15 hours. Al. Khair is a world-renowned travel agency that provides you with guided tours, travel packages, visas, and accommodation so that you can travel to Bali and make the most of your trip without having to worry <a class="wpil_keyword_link" href="https://al-khair.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="about" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">about</a> any of the technicalities. Travel with comfort and ease and collect joys and memories with wonderful travel experience with Al. Khair.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The accurate meaning of word <strong>Ihram</strong> in the Arabic language is “Haram” (<strong>to restrain yourself</strong>). Because by the law of Allah the person who is wearing Ihram (called<strong> Muhrim</strong>) <span id="more-135"></span>has to restrain himself from certain allowed and <strong>Halal</strong> activities of Islam like wearing sewn clothes (for men), apply olive oil in the hair, hunting in the forest, etc.</p>
<p>You can say that Ihram is the uniform or prerequisite for <a href="http://www.al-khair.org/hajj.php"><strong>Hajj</strong></a> and Umrah which must be worn by pilgrims in a prescribed manner as described by Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) instead of normal clothes. <strong>Ihram</strong> consists of two pieces of unsewn clothes, one for upper body and one for lower body (for men).&nbsp; The Ihram for both Hajj and<strong><a href="http://www.al-khair.org/umrah-packages.php"> Umrah</a></strong> is the same but different for men and women.</p>
<h3>Method of Putting Ihram and Its Prerequisite:</h3>
<p>The method of wearing Ihram for <strong>Hajj</strong> and <strong>Umrah</strong> is the same but differs in the&nbsp;<strong>intention of wearing.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Trim your nails if needed because this act is Haram (not allowed in Ihram).</li>
<li>Take a bath (according to Faraiz).</li>
<li>Perform Ablution.</li>
<li>Use Miswak.</li>
<li>Apply fragrance as after wearing<strong> Ihram</strong> you are restricted to use perfume</li>
<li>Now Take Ihram (Two pieces of unsewn clothes), one for upper body which is used as a shawl and second for lower body which will be worn like &#8220;tahbands&#8221;.<br />
Take Ihram of towel clothing as it will be easy in movement rather than any other fabric. It is advisable to take a big shawl for Ihram, this will help you to cover the body properly.</li>
<li>Remove all the sewn clothes even cap hand gloves, socks etc.</li>
<li>You may also take a belt with a zipper wallet for Ihram to keep your passports and money with you. The nylon belt is durable and reliable.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Video Tutorial Of Wearing Ihram</h3>
<h3><iframe src="//www.dailymotion.com/embed/video/x392xsz" width="800" height="450" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></h3>
<h2>Ihram for Women:</h2>
<p>Women are not restricted to wear unsewn clothes. They wear their usual clothes with hand gloves and socks. The Ihram for women is to <strong>cover their</strong> <strong>head</strong> properly with scarf or else and not to cover their faces.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Millions of Muslims use to perform Umrah every year, unfortunately this year 2020, Umrah got restricted from February and pilgrims were restrained from travelling due to Covid-19 pandemic.<span id="more-618"></span></p>
<p>However, since November 2020, Saudi Arabia announced the opening of Umrah visas followed by rules, <a href="http://www.al-khair.org/blog/umrah-regulations-sops-2021">Umrah regulations and SOPs</a> to be followed by the pilgrims.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
