A peace you feel the moment you arrive

When the Prophet ﷺ arrived in Madinah after the Hijrah, he built this masjid with his companions. Today it is one of the largest masjids in the world, yet it keeps a calm that pilgrims never forget.

We begin our group Umrah in Madinah on purpose. After the long flight, you arrive, rest, and spend your first days in prayer and in sending salam to the Prophet ﷺ, before entering Ihram for Makkah.

  • Hotels a short walk from the masjid gates
  • Group visit to send salam to the Prophet ﷺ
