Hajj vaccination

Pilgrims are advised to take the influenza vaccination for added protection during the winter at Makkah and Medina.









Now is Hajj time again...

Labbaika Allaahumma labbaik,
labbaika laa syariika laka labbaik,
innal hamda wan-ni'mata laka wal-mulka, laa syariikalak.

(Saya penuhi panggilan-Mu, ya Allah saya penuhi,
saya penuhi panggilan-Mu, tidak sekutu bagi-Mu,
saya datang memenuhi panggilan-Mu, sesungguhnya segala puji,
nikmat, dan kekuasaan milik-Mu, tidak sekutu bagi-Mu).
