My Art in Makkah!
In short
Saleha Contractor's Islamic paintings were installed in a 5-star hotel in Makkah, steps from the Kaaba. Her advice: tie your camel and trust Allah. If you hope to visit for Umrah, make sincere dua to be invited, and don't worry about the cost; what you spend in Allah's path returns with barakah.
ALHUMDULILLAH! Still can’t believe it “Tie your camel and then put your trust in Allah”
Work hard, be persistent and Allah swt will present opportunities you never imagined possible.
The hotel is still under renovation so it’s been a slow process as they shut down one floor at a time. I got my hands on a few pics to share with you all. @makaremhotels
If you happen to visit, do send me pics! I wish I could be invited to Allah swt home once again to witness this myself.
I’ve only been once to this holy site for umrah with my parents and I can’t tell you how magical it was. If you are thinking about going, make sincere dua asking to be invited.
Because you can have all the wealth in the world but if you’re not invited, you’ll never get the opportunity to visit. Something or another will come in the way. I remember someone told me this and explained how you have to genuinely ask Allah to bless you with this opportunity.
Also, someone else told me that any amount you spend on your journey will be returned back to you so don’t stress about spending in Allahs path. Focus on the journey. I didn’t quite understand it then but I can’t tell you how true it is. You will see barakah inshaAllah because anything we spend in charity or in Allahs path will not go unnoticed. HE is the almighty, ar Razzaq- the one who creates your rizq, the provider and sustainer.
