Hajj is a rejuvenating journey that every Muslim desires to go on at least once in his/her lifetime. Why? For one, it has been made obligatory upon him by Allah SWT if he is able. Second, who wouldn't want to visit Allah's house on this Earth? Who wouldn't want to visit the place where once, Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) stood, where Rehmat ulil Alameen Muhammad (PBUH) once performed Hajj? Who wouldn't wish to see the famous Safa o Marwa where once Hajira, wife of Ibrahim (AS) ran frantically in search of water for her infant son, Ismail (AS)? Who wouldn't have the desire to stand on the plain of Arafat where once people gathered to listen to the famous Khutbah Haj at ul- Wida, the last sermon of our Propher Muhammad (PBUH). To breath the air that was once inhaled by Ibrahim, Ismaeil, Muhammad (PBUH) and many pious men in the history of Islam and to drink Zam Zam, the pure and fresh water that once quenched the thirst of Hajra and her baby Ismail (AS), who wouldn't aspire for that?
No doubt, its the dream of every Muslim men and women to go to Makkah for performing Hajj, but its never been so easy. For people who live far away from Saudi Arabia, a lot of planning, arrangements and finances are required. I remember my late grandfather (may Allah bless him with the highest place in jannat ul firdous) used to tell me that how he and my grandmother travelled all the way from Pakistan, on ship, to Saudi Arabia for Hajj and it took them many days to just reach there. Now-a-days, how ever the travelling has become easy but, of course, expensive. No matter, where ever you are, all you have to do is to board a plane and you will reach Saudi Arabia in a few hours. Amazing, isn't it? Also different providers all around the globe, now provide different Hajj Packages to people, a one comprehensive package, which includes the arrangements for travel, stay, food, transport during Hajj etc.
The problem which people often face is how to chose that one package which fulfills all their needs and whose service has been tried, tested and recommended by others. There is a website, with the name of Hajj explorer, that has been initiated while keeping in mind all these factors.
It is a platform which contains details of Hajj and Umrah packages from providers in USA. The purpose of this project is to collect as much information as possible about different packages available out there at a single place so that the interested parties can easily search, compare and even review and rate the packages they have had experience with. Have you ever compared phones from T-mobile website where you get to see the features of the selected phones in the form of a table? In the same way you can compare in detail the Hajj and Umrah packages on their website and make an educated decision. An excellent endeavor masha'Allah. I hope they extend it to include packages from Pakistan as well.
Follow them on Facebook and Twitter.
