AsalamAlaykum from Madinah. I recall @MuhammadLila post-Hajj saying he'd rather perform Hajj or Report it but not do both at once.

And @windmobile's data roaming charges in Saudi Arabia are $20/MB…let me say that again: Twenty Dollars per MegaByte.

I could've got myself a local STC or Mobily SIM card… Yet @MuhammadLila's message of doing one or the other found resonance in life here.

This is my 'reverse-hijri' day. Travelling from Madinah TO Makkah. InshAllah, God-Alone Willing, will perform two Umrahs, one for me+1 for U

It's been life transforming so far. Walked on foot around this city: to Mount Uhud; prayed in masjid al Qiblatain; made a labyrinth; cried.

I have GIGs of photos and videos. I decided NOT to blog along the way. Will do so once I'm home in Toronto, InshAllah.

I most likely will not tweet from Makkah at all. Will be too focussed, too busy to hunt for free wifi.

If you tweet me or DM me with your prayer requests, I will make them on your behalf once I reach Makkah.

That's it from Madinah al Munawarrah. The Illuminated City. …oh, and I did pray that my City gets a new mayor in 2014. How could I not?

That last tweet, about Toronto getting a new mayor in 2014?
With Mayor Rob Ford no longer running for Mayor, having switched to running for City Council in Ward 2 Etobicoke North, This Prayer I made is now guaranteed to come true.
As for my other prayer made about who then becomes the New Mayor of Toronto in 2014…
My name HiMY SYeD, and unlike the outgoing mayor, my name remains ON The Ballot as a Mayoral Candidate.
Election Day in Toronto is now less than a month away on October 27th…
We’ll see whatever is Decreed to Happen.
…InshAllah…
