Umrah

Salaam all

I wanted to know when is the best time to go for Umrah? I was thinking of going in May but am thinking it may be too hot?

Also, when going for Umrah-where do you travel to? Riyadh/Jeddah in Saudia Arabia? How far is Makkah from there?

Thanks

Hi TabuB

I went in late May / early June last year... yeah, it was hot but not unbearably so. There is still a light breeze in the evenings. When you're doing your Umrah, you hardly notice the heat .... how can you notice anything esle when the amazing and beautiful Khana Kaaba is infront of you??!! Believe me, pics do not do it justice....
Masjid-al-Nabawi is all air conditioned inside .... stays very cool...
I'm going again this May.... can't wait!!! The best experience EVER!!!

Re: Umrah

Also.... you fly to Jeddah.... about an hour's drive from Makkah!

:wsalam:

Best way by air and get exact information from Umrah travlers.
(or as per your convineant)

I went at the end of june. The building surrouding Khana Kaba is too high u’ll not feel hot there. don’t worry 'bout month once u there u’ll 4get all date/time etc etc. This is the not easy to describe how Khana Kaba looks when u c by ya eyes.

Just GOOOOOO
