Umrah Day 06: Makkah - Hudaibiah

“To walk the spiritual path is to continually step out into the unknown...” - Wallace Huey

(Having fun at Museum Kuno)

Day 06: 24/08/24 (Saturday)
Route: Makkah - Hudaibiah
Hotel: Pullman ZamZam Hotel

At 7.00 am after a frenzied breakfast, the group gathered at the hotel lobby for a trip to Hudaibiah. On the way we visited the Abu Bakr Al-Amoudy Museum, an interesting museum which could lead to becoming a potential tourist attraction. The museum is situated just outside the Makkah Haram Boundary. The museum displays an array of models depicting life in Saudi in its early 1900s with displays, photographs and lots of artefacts for visitors to explore. It’s a Saudi Cultural Heritage Museum privately owned by the Abu Bakr Al-Amoudy.

We miqat at Masjid Hudaibiyah, bought some ladies abayas and tasbih for souvenirs. Back at the hotel we sent our bags to the room then headed to Mataf area for Tawaf and performed Sa’ei at the upper floor. We completed our fourth umrah just before Zohor. This was our last umrah for this trip.

Tonight we packed our bags. Tomorrow we would be travelling to Madinah by bus after Zohor prayers.
