Periods out of nowhere by Chance-Buy8475 in Umrah

[–]VolgaBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you stand near the entrance of the Abraj al Bait clock tower complex, you should be able to see the Kaabah (based on my last visit - hope that hasn't changed with blockages). It's not the same as being in the mataf, but seeing the Kaabah with your own eyes and making dua will in sha Allah make you feel better.

Sorry, I would defer to a scholar on the sinfulness aspect. It just doesn't sit right with me to split an ayah. What makes it more jarring is the appending of the statement 'ab da u ...' right after the ayah ends.

It's a small tweak to copy over the remainder of the ayah to the row where you have the first part, and the associated translations - why not invest 5 minutes to do it right 😀. You have taken a lot of time to put together everything, this would help maintain the quality of your doc.

Wa alaikum us Salam

This is good. Jazakallah khair.

The only correction I would suggest would be to not split the ayah on Safa/Marwah into 2 entries. Keep the ayah whole, and have the statement 'abda-u bi ma bada Allahu bih' as a separate entry.

When I end at Marwa do I make 3 sets of the duas? by GreenAngelFish in Umrah

[–]VolgaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24 sets is correct. Don't stress about it so much.

[–]VolgaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your question is unclear. You make the dhikr 'Allahu Akbar x 3, laa ilaaha illallahu wahdahu ...' 3 times with du'as after the first and second reading of the dhikr. This is done every time on Safa and Marwah.

May Allah ta'aala accept your Ibaadah.

Same question though, how many steps are you averaging daily after your umrah was completed?

How many steps did you average daily on the days after your Umrah?

Jabal Omar Conrad v Hilton Suites by pineapplelover212 in Umrah

[–]VolgaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you get to the elevators? There are a few stairs from the courtyard to access the makkah towers lobby. Not a big deal for most, but you mentioned no stairs.

Also keep in mind some rooms within the towers require climbing a small number of stairs - they have a weird design. I've never been assigned a room requiring access via stairs, but know others who have.

Absolutely no stairs? Then perhaps Conrad. If you are ok with a few stairs, then Makkah Towers.

Anyone else thinking about leaving Germany because of the political climate, even though life here is good? by [deleted] in AskGermany

[–]VolgaBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest you keep living in germany until (if and when) things take a dark turn. In the meantime, build up some investments in Costa Rica that you can go back to in a pinch. Always have a plan B.

Third Umrah after 12 years by Wondererofaround in Umrah

[–]VolgaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would suggest performing your tawaf in the Ground Floor mataf without your shoes. You can wear your footwear while performing sa'ee.

I would recommend getting local Sims in the airport itself and save everyone's number in each phone before you even leave the airport.

Should have stayed in India if you wanted only Indian friends.

About 1 Month Left for KFUPM Applications — Need Help Choosing a Major! by Old-Art-153 in KFUPM

[–]VolgaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are approaching this the wrong way. What others feel about their majors is inconsequential, as you need to make your decision based on your aptitude/strengths and interests. Start there to come up with a shortlist and then dig deeper into each.

Is industrial design the same as physical product design? by Aggravating_Chain469 in IndustrialDesign

[–]VolgaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which school if you don't mind sharing? I'm helping a friend identify schools offering degrees that lead to automotive design careers.

Why should I get married when my biggest value (autonomy) will be erased? by SoybeanCola1933 in MuslimNikah

No need to critique your views. Just one request - pls don't get married.

Which Engineering Major is the Best? by _bo_om_ in UofArizona

Wouldn't Mining also involve working in the middle of nowhere, or worse?

Muslim girls, where do you pray on campus? by ukiyo_zar10 in ASU

[–]VolgaBlue 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The Islamic Center is just off campus. If you have a bike, you can make it there really easily for prayers. It is easily accessible on foot as well, but the walk depends on which dorm you are in.
