Ramadan Day 5: #Alhamdulillah for our beautiful Kaaba and Makkah prayers. As I listened to the live Taraweeh prayers in Makkah on TV today, it brought back all those years I spent in Saudi, the numerous Umrahs and Tawaafs that were made and hours spent standing in Dua behind the beautiful recitation of Sheikh Abdur Rahman Sudais. Perhaps I took it for granted then – the immaturity of youth. But now I watch and listen, I yearn to go back, to join the ranks of people in prayer, to touch and weep wholeheartedly in front of the Kaaba. To pour out whatever  we feel in our hearts in front of the Kaaba as if we are standing truly before Allah. There is no other religion that can match the unison, organised and perfected manner of the millions of people who stand in prayer each night for Taraweeh at the same time. I pray Allah swt gives us ALL the opportunity to go to this blessed place soon and earn the rewards of praying there. Inshallah – Ameen.
