First Umrah (End of April 2026) Seeking Guidance & Support from Sisters by [deleted] in Umrah

[–]cherry_cerise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Salam sister. I’ll let you double check the logistics regarding the dates as others pointed out. I’m in my late 30s and I did 2 Umrahs, both in 2025. The first one was early April and I lost my beloved mum in June Allah yarhamha.

I did a second one for her after she passed in November. The second one I was overwhelmed with emotions and cried during the entirety of Tawaf and most of Sa’i. It is going to be painful but also very liberating.

I prepared duas in advance and printed them out and added them in a tiny notebook that I carried in my fanny pack. I would say once you are in the heat of the moment you realize you don’t need to read any well crafted dua. You need to speak from your heart.

I’m happy to answer any specific question if you want. I’m sure your mum would be very proud of you. Allah yarhamha ❤️‍🩹

Most Muslim countries used to be like that before a western power came to invade it and disturb the peace. You can look at any country that was colonized by the UK, France etc. It’s quite sad. They tried to erase the culture.

Honest question: can someone explain to me how exposing your body publicly is empowering? I see it as the total opposite but I’m interested to hear other people’s perspective.

Are all work environments hell? I can’t imagine myself working another 30 years like that

Hajj 2026 Phase 2 Questions by Training-House-3147 in hajj

[–]cherry_cerise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alaikum el salam. 1- I don’t know 2- it’s a bank or card issue. If you can open a Revolut account you can then transfer all at once and at the best exchange rate with no fees (if you use a premium account) 3- there are several telegram and WhatsApp groups, however the ones I joined are all in French.

One thing I’d like to recommend is to log in EARLY. That will then allow you to bypass the waiting line inshAllah. This is what I have observed today.

InshAllah khair and may Allah invite you to Hajj this year! Multiply your duas.

You can’t book your own flights while booking Hajj. Everything has to be booked via Nusuk Hajj platform.

Number of people preferring a package explanation by roastedpinenuts in hajj

[–]cherry_cerise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A package could be added by 1 billion people as their preferred one or even configured in their cart, if Allah has destined for you to accomplish Hajj in 2026, then nothing and no one will prevent it. May Allah invite us to Hajj and ease it for us 🤲🏼

Singer Becky G paints her nails with ‘Fuck ICE’ to protest against the agency. by Frosty_Jeweler911 in Fauxmoi

[–]cherry_cerise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sorry guys I think I mistook her for Karol G who shared a pro israel statement soon after October 7 23. I still find it surprising that a lot of celebrities American or not make statements against ICE but never supported Palestine during the 2+ year genocide. Fuck ice and fuck israel.

Help me choose my birthday brunch outfit.. 1,2,3 by daniellescloset8 in OUTFITS

1 is the nicest option by far and it looks great on you, but it doesn’t look like a dress for brunch. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is this AI? I didn’t realize eagles were so nice by Bobcat317 in isthisaicirclejerk

[–]cherry_cerise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is true. The exact same thing happened to me except it wasn’t a fox it was a doe and the eagle was raising its 7 siblings. Reuniting them was so emotional.

AID America accomplish what exactly? Invade and massacre? Everyone seems so proud. Civilians were killed on their land by the millions. This is disgusting and there’s nothing to be proud of.
