Join us for ALIM’s second Umrah journey—a spiritually enriching experience in the sacred cities of Makkah and Madinah, guided by esteemed scholars Dr. Sherman Jackson, Dr. Muneer Fareed, Dr. Ali Sulaiman Ali, and Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans.
​

This is more than a pilgrimage. It is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the legacy of the Prophet ﷺ and draw timeless lessons of perseverance, patience, and faith.
​
In Makkah, the heart of the Muslim world, you’ll stand before the Ka‘bah, walk in the footsteps of Hajar, and reflect at the very place where the Prophet ﷺ first received revelation. In Madinah, the city of the Prophet ﷺ, you’ll find peace and tranquility as you pray in Masjid al-Nabawi and visit his blessed resting place.

This journey is organized in partnership with Dar El Salam Islamic World Travel. With their trusted guidance and seamless logistics, you’ll be free to focus fully on the spiritual experience. You’ll also benefit from:
  • On-site lectures and nightly khatiras to deepen your understanding
  • Spiritual reflections drawn from the life of the Prophet ﷺ
  • Professional guidance and logistical support every step of the way

First UMRAH TRIP​

Makkah

THE HEART OF THE MUSLIM WORLD

Picture
For years you have turned your heart and prayer towards this sacred city. Now, you can finally stand before the Ka‘bah, the first house built for the worship of Allah. Feel the power of Makkah as you hear the call to prayer (adhaan) echo through the holy sanctuary, proclaimed by the world’s most renowned muadhins. As you join the rows of worshippers, standing shoulder to shoulder in humility before Allah, you realize: you have been chosen as His Guest on this profound journey of faith.
Picture
​Ziyārah and Sacred Sites in MakkahTravel back 1,400 years and relive the defining moments of early Islam:
  • Jabal al-Noor (Mountain of Light): where the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ first received revelation.
  • Jabal Thawr: the site of the Prophet’s ﷺ migration and a powerful lesson in tawakkul (trust in Allah).
  • Jabal ‘Arafah (Mount of Mercy): where the Prophet ﷺ delivered his Farewell Sermon.
  • Mina – The City of Tents: where pilgrims perform the rites of Hajj and pelt the Jamarat.​

Madinah
​
The City of Peace and Light

Picture
If Makkah stirs awe, Madinah brings peace to the heart. Known as the city of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Madinah welcomes you home with tranquility, love, and light. Here, you will pray in Masjid al-Nabawi, visit the blessed resting place of the Prophet ﷺ, and experience the serenity that only Madinah can offer.

Ziyārah and Sacred Sites in MadinahStep into history as you visit:
  • Masjid Quba: the first mosque built in Islam, founded by the Prophet ﷺ himself.
  • Masjid Qiblatain: where the qiblah changed from Jerusalem to Makkah.
  • Sites that tell stories of prophetic wisdom, sacrifice, and the companionship that shaped the Muslim ummah.

Madinah is more than a destination—it is a city that continues to give. Its history strengthens faith, its lessons inspire character, and its spirit calls you to become the best version of yourself.
