"Allah measures the journey not by comfort, but by sincerity in every step...”

| (On the bus to Madinah) |
Day 06: 26/01/26 (Monday)
Activity: Makkah - Madinah, the prophetic hijrah route...
Hotel: Emaar Elite Hotel Madinah
Feeling slightly better this morning, we went early for Subuh prayers. Today was our departure for Madinah. Our packed bags waited quietly outside the room, a silent reminder that our time in Makkah was drawing to an end.
My appetite was still weak, so breakfast was light, just some salad and potatoes. We rested until it was time for tawaf wida’. Not fully fit to walk the Mataf, hubby arranged a buggy ride for our farewell tawaf at 11.00 am, allowing me to complete it with calm and gratitude. Afterwards, we waited at the first-floor prayer area for Zohor and performed jamak prayers for Asar.
Checkout was at 1.30 pm, leaving no time for lunch, but we had packed simple food for the journey. By 2.30 pm, we boarded the bus and slowly left Makkah. Departing this sacred city is always emotional. With a heavy heart, I prayed that Allah grants me the opportunity to return again, to this most blessed place.
Some members of our group continued by the Haramain High-Speed Train, while we travelled by bus. The journey was uneventful, and still recovering from the flu, I slept through most of it.
We arrived in Madinah late at night and checked into Emaar Elite Hotel. A hot shower eased the fatigue, and soon after, rest came easily. My body weary, my heart full, and my soul quietly grateful.
