To Ayoob Amojee,

The prophets themselves are obviously real, but the stories they told are just tales, myths and legends. Look around: nowhere shall you find the slightest trace of any divine presence or will, except inside your own mind. The words "divine" or "god" have no meaning in the real world. Dreams and chimera. Coming back in the real world would allow to resolve real problems, instead of fighting for false problems created by false assumptions.

Pretty pictures. I wonder whether the law that infidel must not enter mecca is still in place, and that therefore all these photographs must have had to be taken by muslims ... or else.

Do not like the fact that only muslims are permitted to be there. Christian churches are opened to all humans.

ElHamdulillah Muslims around the world but the picture with the palatinien in Gazza (refah tunnel). The situation is a massage for us.

Muslims Wake up

SubhanAllah.. AllahuAkbar.

After Watching Pictures I just Wanna Say From My heart Is "LA ILAHA ILLALAHO MOHAMMAD UR RASSULALLAH"

THIS IS WHAT ISLAM IS.
MASHALLAH.
ALLAH O AKBAR
I AM PROUD TO BE A MUSLIM
LET US ALL SAY TO GATHER.
LAILLAHA ILLALLAH LA
MOHAMMED DU RASOOLALLAH
NAFIS

this picture into this year thank god I went to all the Muslims are Allah ordain

to yogi,

do yourself a favour and look at the miracle, not at

the action and make the distinction - take a look

search belt of rocks or splitting of moon on google.

do this before the americans / jews remove all trace

of this miracle also - like they are doing in iran and

iraq and hope to do in palestine!

why do you have so much objection to islam is it

because you condone these actions against the

muslims? have the muslims been the instigators?

To Ayoob Amojee :

I don't see why you think Americans/ Jews would remove all proof that the moon was once split: that would be such a great scientific discovery! It would open so many new scientific fields to explore! Unfortunately, as all other legends such as the splitting of the Red Sea in the Bible or the instant drying of the Pacific Ocean in some Fijian tales, it doesn't make any sense. And the picture of a local crack in the moon's surface, as there are so many on the moon and on all celestial bodies, doesn't change that.

I do not have any particular objection to Islam, no more no less than to Christianity or any other religion that wants to keep humanity stuck in tales invented hundreds or thousands of years ago by a handful of people for their own needs or objectives.

to yogi,
You asked for proof , i show you proof, just as the prophets did to the people of the time and they chose to mock them etc just as you do now, what troubles me is the fact that you can waste so much of your precious time trying to convince the people you believe are lost to believe you! Of course it wont make sense to you because you cannot see the miracle - that is where faith comes in which you dont have

i have always believed in ALLAH and i will do for the rest of my life.... people like jews and other who don't believe in these pics then what i say is you are not human. O ALLAH I AM SOOO PROUD TO BE MUSLIM. I LOVE U ALLAH. let jews do want their want, their wouldn't go to far because their don't have the power which muslim has. so all my brothers, sisters stick with your believe beacuse only we muslim know that ALLAH is there and with us all the time....right....because we can FEEL ALLAH. beauitful pics mashallah.................

To Ayoob Amojee : Trying to have people thinking instead of believing is not a waste of time.

dang comment on the pics no one cares about your religious views

All the pictures are remarkable. We are feeling proud ourself watching Khana Kaba so close. God bess you whoever is the representative for these pictures.

it is wonderfull work gazakukullah khairan for it my Allah 'subhanahuwataala 'acsept all this people pryiers and enter all of al gannah without hesab

IT IS REALLY WONDERFUL. THE PEOPLE OF OTHER FAITH SHOULD WATCH.

thanks.. simply beautiful pictures..
bring peace to the heart

Pretty pictures. I wonder whether the law that infidel must not enter mecca is still in place, and that therefore all these photographs is so beautiful....

maashaallah - Labaik Allahumma Labaik .....................Laaa sharika laka labaik - Let us keep our Imaan [faith] as strong - come any obstacles - our hope our faith is House of Allah s.w.t. as we see in these photos
Oh Allah !! Guide those who are astray from religion - a religion that teaches us from cradle to grave - wajibats - sunnahs - ethics - history - you name it.

Let us keep up the good work always with strong faith and patience. - amen

May God pls. give me and my family chance to make Hazri/presence at all these place, to bow down my self.

To Yogi,
U dont seem to believe in any religion but i request u - try to understand ISLAM instead of criticising without knowing anything, it hurts to see a person like u !

To leen,
Sorry if I hurt you; I do not criticise Islam itself, I just disapprove of religions, they all work the same whatever the peculiar details of one or the other. Even when they promote great principles it's for wrong reasons, appealing to belief instead of reason and dividing the world between "us" and "them".

sobhana llah wa la ilaha illa llah wa llaho akbar

Salaam,
Subhanallah! Im speechless! thank you brother for sharing this with us. May Allah bless you and may Allah grant all muslims peace and the opportunity to perform hajj, Inshallah.
Dr Karisma Fatima Khurrum

These are magnificent and have to be seen to believe how stunning the photos
are .I honestly hope to one day be able to perform Hajj and visit the Holy city too

Maashaallah: Wah loved it.

oh veri gut islam (may name muzafer macedonian)gut allah muhamet /s.l.a.


ALLAH LAILAHE ILALLAH

MUHAMET RESULULLAH

Al hamdu Lillah! Simply superb.

Qur'an:9:5 "Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war."

Please stop misquoting the Qur'a, the verses of Surah 9 are the following:
5. Then when the Sacred Months (the Ist, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islâmic calendar) have passed, then kill the Mushrikûn (see V.2:105) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and give Zakât, then leave their way free. Verily, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.[]

6. And if anyone of the Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) seeks your protection then grant him protection, so that he may hear the Word of Allâh (the Qur'ân), and then escort him to where he can be secure, that is because they are men who know not.

VIRAR A BUNDA PRA MERDA? PODE DEIXAR....

@Me : I'm a disbeliever in any form of religion including Islam, I do not repent, I do not seek believer's protection. So should I be killed when the Sacred Months are past ?

@Yogi,

I'm in a Muslim ~ Atheist dilemma myself. It'd be really interesting to chat with you. Are you interested?

@Yep
I'd be glad to discuss, even though I'm not sure I'll be of much help!

Anyway you can post your thoughts here if you think the discussion is of general interest, or mail to a mail account I've opened specifically for this -> atyogi.mail -at- gmail.com

Absolutely amazing pictures. Thank you. May God guide us all to the right path. Ameen!

i am very happy to seen and i get good picture about hajj and i could show my frieds

Güzell Rabbim bizlere de nasip et o mübarek topraklara varmayý !!!

great pictures. loved the one with the goat in the backseat !

allah akbar this is the best

SUPER

There is no god but Allah and mohamed is his Prophet

Labbaitaullahummalabbai.....Alhamdulililah I was born as a muslim and am proud to be our Prophet Mohammad Sallaullahhi Alaihiwasalam follower.May Allah protect all my beloved muslims brothers and sisters all over the world.Insyallah I will be performing Hajj in one ot two years time.

Subahan Allah, Alhamdulillah, Laillahailallah, Wallahuakhbar, Lahaulawallakuwatailabillahiylazim, Hasbiallahwanekmaalwakiel, Allahumasaliaalasydinamuhammad....

Mashalla so beautiful! We r very lucky to be muslims.

Allah hu akhbar.
May Allah blessed you all, my brothers and sisters.
Only those who are given guidence are guided.
Subahanallah.

to yogi: quote: "@Me : I'm a disbeliever in any form of religion including Islam, I do not repent, I do not seek believer's protection. So should I be killed when the Sacred Months are past ?"

certainly not. that verse was revealed for a specific context. perhaps you would like to read about Islam? the translation of the Holy Qur'an is a good place to start, in it are many signs for those who reflect.
Also, you could read the biography of the greatest man this world has seen, the best of creation, the noble Messenger, Muhammad, (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) who was sent as a mercy to all of mankind, including YOU.

"Only in the remebrance of Allah can the heart find peace."

May you find that peace.

Allahhuakbar....can't wait to be there again.....

Masha Allah.... May Allah shower His blessings upon all the ummah of Mohamaed (SAW), inshaAllah... Ameen...

so whats the moral of this?:)
Muslims pick up your cameras! (and your video cams and your pens and your paintbrushes.) Don't just sit and watch. Be part of it. DO something!

I'm really feel very proud to be a Muslim!And very lucky to be a Muslim.

thank you very much for posting these pictures. My five year old son has been very curious about what happens in Hajj and these photos really helped me to expalin to him.
beautiful shots u have captured.

THERE ARE SOOO MANY PEOPLE-MUSLIMSS MASHALLAH SE!!!!!

there are a lot of people who are proud of being a Muslim! could someone tell me why are you proud? what have you done in this world to make you feel proud?
I was born muslim but i really don't believe in god or any religion if you look and study the religions we have on this planet you can obviously see all are the same lie or it's better to say all are the same way for gettin people calm, because they did not have any Law at the time so those men who you call prophet were just like you and me but more intelligent, that's it.
just live your life the way you like and don't hurt anyone else.

Subahan Allah, Alhamdullilah, Allah Akhbar, Walaillahailallah, Waallahakbar, Ya Allah, you have show the earth how MIGHTY you are, All the Muslim all together there are no space for races, ego, all muslim will pray and face the same Position (KIBLAT)...

That why make the anti Islam JEALOUS to us.......because they don't feel the real life in their heart...

salaam

assalam o alikum i m very lucky that i m muslim and also i m very proud that i m muslim n also i proud that we r the ummat of Mohammad (peace be upon him)

we fast in the holy month of Ramadan to feel the hunger of the poor,pay our charity to the needy,make Hajj to feel unity of all humans,rich and poor,black and white under the One God.how can you look at yourself and think that you are on this earth for no purpose?

it is useless to advise ignorant people, when God has sealed their hearts, on their ears and put veil on their eyes to the truth.

a reason why others are not allowed in Holy Mecca is because when all the pilgrims have come from different parts of the world to praise the One whom they truly love,it is impossible for people who worship others than Him to feel that unity.

GIPSY KINGS

can you explain #930, please?

Massaha Allah
nice collection

to #42,well ,for ur kind information,Quran is not just about science.it so happens that the recent discoveries in the field of science happens to conform with it,which further proves its truth.God tells us to explore the mysteries of the universe and find out about the wonders of the working of our body and turn to God by them.He has given us a pair of eyes to see,ears to hear,a heart to thank Him and a tongue to praise Him.Quran is The Glorious Word of God,in which there are stories of the previous Prophets of God,Adam,Noah,David,Jesus(peace be upon them all).It teaches us good characters ,to defend evil with what is better and ffurther,it teaches us how to live.Before critcising it,why don't u first read it atleast?

Allahu Akbar

i just happened to think about this,imagine we are all falling down a cliff,God stretches out a rope to us,some cling onto it hoping to get rescued,others prefer to save themselves by climbing,but it is not enough that we just cling ont the rope,we should climb up using the rope.Edison once said that man would go anywhere to escape from thinking,it is very much true nowadays,we are not ready to reflect for atleast a minute about life or where we are heading,being busy all the time.why are the children who have grown up in countryside richer,because they live with nature and learn from it,to give without expecting toomuch,to help others in need,we don't get pleasure from looking at the tall skryscrapper, wathcing a thriller film,we entertain ourselves and we forget a lot, but one glance at the stars and the moon,at the sky and its wonders lifts up your spirits upwards,why,because these are from God and we won't be able to get them back once they are lost.

wait,it was recently discovered that the electrons revolve around the nucleus in an anticlock fashion,planets revolve in an anticlockwise direction around the sun,Muslims circambulate about the House of God in an anticlockwise direction,now that is not just a coincidence,it was not a rule made by a person 1400 yrs ago when man didnot even know that his body was composed of cells.this Holy Ritual was shown to us by our Great Father,Prophet Abraham(peace be upon him),ever true to his Lord and never hesitant to obey His Command the moment he was ordered.God ordered Him to announce to the people that pilgrimage thereto was a duty man owed to God and that they will come from every distance and on every lean camel to visit His House.Muslims are following the rites of their pious predecessors when they make the Pilgrimage thereto.also,it was recently found that Mecca(and notGreenwich) is infact the centre of the earth.what more proof is needed?

ALLAHU AKBAR

God is the Greatest.

i just happened to read ibn kathir's version of stories of the Prophets(peace be upon them all) and the story of Adam(peace be upon him) just overtook me.it narrates how God shaped Adam,breathed into him His Divine Breath,he opened his eyes to see all the angels prostrate before him(it was a gesture of honour and not worship,which is solely for God),he opened his eyes to see all of them prostrate,except for one who stood away and refused to prostrate to someone he felt was inferior to himself,who was made of fire and Adam was made of clay.Satan,who had enjoyed a noble positon in paradise before his expulsion,swore to God that he would misguide all his progeny,except a few who would stick to the path of their Lord.today,we come across people,who have been deceived by this revengeful enemy.he is an enemy who pretends to be a friend,we believe him to be a trustworthy companion,he steals us of all what we have and when our end comes,we realise we have been cheated,he doesnot lose because of our wrongdoing,but we would have lost ourselves.God tells us in Quran about how Satan will cut off all ties that were between his friends"Verily,it was God who promised you a promise of truth,I promised you too,but I failed in my promise,I had the power only to invite you to evil and you listened to me,so donot blame me ,blame yourselves,I cannot hear your screams,neither can you hear mine,I reject you having taken me for a friend,indeed the wrongdoers must have a painful torment".let us not be deceived by this great enemy and save ourselves,his rage,his fury at having lost his place in Paradise is ever greater,man's ignorance is only aiding it,our fortune lies in our hands,either to receive an everlasting reward in Paradise or be thrown into the hellfire,therein the wrongdoers would have nothing but remorse and regret.

THIS IS ISLAM.
MASHALLAH.
ALLAH O AKBAR
I AM PROUD TO BE A MUSLIM. ACCEPT ISLAM, ALLAH WILL GATHER US TOGATHER IN JANAT. A COMPLETE AND FINAL RELEGION.
LET US ALL SAY TO GATHER.

Azad Khan (Fiji) - khanazad32@gmail.com

God beautifully narrates the story of his beloved slave,Prophet Abraham(upon him be peace) in Quran ,when he tried to bring his people to worship Him Almighty,""They (his people)said: "Build for him a building and throw him into the blazing fire they plotted a plot against him, but We made them the lowest.he said "Verily, I am going to my Lord. He will guide me! My Lord! Grant me from the righteous."so We gave him the glad tidings of a forbearing boy. And, when he was old enough to walk with him, he said: "O my son! I have seen in a dream that I am slaughtering you,let me know what you think!" He said: "O my father! Do that which you are commanded,God willing,you shall find me of the patient, when they had both submitted themselves , and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead And We called out to him: "O Abraham! You have fulfilled the dream! Verily! thus do We reward the good-doers." Verily, that indeed was a manifest trial. And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice And We left for him (a goodly remembrance) among the later generations. peace be upon Abraham! Thus indeed do We reward the good-doers Verily, he was one of Our believing slaves. And We gave him the glad tidings of Isaac a Prophet from the righteous.We blessed him and Isaac, and of their progeny are that do right, and some that plainly wrong themselves".in the sacrifce we make to God on the day of the Great Pigrimage is remembering Abrahm's readiness to slaughter his beloved son and God's infinite mercy in ordering him to sacrifice a ram instead,verily God loves those who do good and will not leave them all by themselves,He would guide them and He becomes their light by which they see,hear and think,His Light guides them and lifts them from the darkness of a bottomless well to a Rank of Glory.

Alhamdollilah,

Asslamalikum wa rahmtullahi barkathu,

Jazakallahkhyir for your precious job AAmeen Suma AAmeen.

God narrates the story of Abraham (peace be upon him) in another part of Quran"And when the night overook him, he saw a star,he said "That is my Lord" and when it set,he said"Surely,I don't like the one which sets" ,When he saw the moon rising,he said"That is my Lord" and when it set ,he said "O Lord,if You don't guide me,I shall be truly astray."And when he saw the sun rising up in splendour,he said"That is my Lord,that is the greatest" and when it set,he said"O people,I'm free of what you worship besides my Lord, I've indeed set my face towards the One who fashioned the heavens and the earth and I am not of those who join others with Him"But his people disputed with him,he said"Do you dispute with me about my Lord when he has guided me,and I fear not what you have joined in worship with Him,when you don't fear after you have associated others with Him,so which of us has a better right for protection,it is those who believe and who confuse not their belief with falsehood who have the better right to safety and they are the rightly guided"".Man likes his Lord to be present with him in all his affairs,he likes his Lord to be the One who knows the secrets of his hearts and who sees him always .He doesnot want a Lord who disappears like the moon or the star,but he wants his Lord to be there when he needs Him,to help him when he calls for Him,to answer him when He asks him.when we are in trouble,it is Him we call upon"O Lord if you save us from this,indeed we would be of the grateful"and yet when He saves us,we forget Him and fail to thank Him.Most ungrateful is man.

Beautiful pictures - I don't really know anything about the Hajj and what I see intrigues me to learn more. Thank you to those responsible for taking and sharing them.

Everyone try to remember everyone that what you believe is right for you, but may not be for all. Lack of tolerance causes a lot of pain and suffering in the world - we don't all have to believe the same thing. Even when we think we're right.

Peace to everyone of all faiths and beliefs.

to Rob
evryone is equal,the black and the white,the poor and the rich,the learned and the unlearned,we all have the same parents,we have the same God,so why do we fight?God says in the Quran"God is the light of the heavens and the earth,the parable of His Light is as a niche and within it a lamp, the lamp is in glass, the glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, an olive, neither of east nor west whose light would glow though fire scarcely touched it,Light upon Light,God guides unto His Light whom He wills.God strikes metaphors for man ,He knows everything."May God help you find that light.
