As most people would agree, experience is one of the best teachers... Well, I would agree to that too..not in an academic sense.. but perhaps more towards the emotional part of one's life.
Went for umrah a few years ago, it made me realize that there's something hidden within the journey and ibadah that we performed. I really missed those moments, being there, it felt so calm and i can feel the love around...especially with all the pilgrims from all over the world...our brothers and sisters...
