Bismillah-hir-Rahman-nir-Raheem.


My Amazing Umrah,
ma sha Allah!

Alhamdolillah. All praise is for Allah, Who permitted His slave to travel across the earth, Who provided for him who had no means and no power of his own. May He Forgive the mistakes of His slave and reduce the harm of them. And may He be pleased with His slave, and increase the good of his good deeds. Ameen.


The Holy Masjid in Makkah, no place holier! Picture from Hajj 1426 (January, 2006)

McArabia -- does not taste as good as it looks

friday 1:10 am Islamabad

012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789

remember (or can you still see?) all those line breaks in my earlier
posts? well, the extra line breaks are courtesy of the gmail web
browser -- the version that works on cell phones and mobile devices.
and the problem is that the code is prehistoric (by web standards).

so it wants line breaks every 60 characters or so, and it adds them for
you -- without asking. and that feature cannot be turned off in gmail
settings. hence my 60 char number line.

qadrAllahi wa maa shaa'a fa'ala.

inshaAllah i leave for Karachi in the am.

tonight i went to McDonalds. yes pictures of McDonalds boxes are
cheesy. but would you have believed "McArabia" without one?

as bad as that tasted, the spicy chicken sandwich was actually quite
good. and the McRoyale (seriously) suffered only from being
drowned in ketchup and mayo.

would i want to live in McArabia? nope, give me Saudi, inshaAllah,
with extra time in the Haramain. :)
