UMRAH 2024
Join us as we journey together to the most blessed lands of Makkah and Madinah, completing the rites of Umrah, cleansing our souls of accumulated sins and nourishing our hearts with heightened faith. If you’re after an enjoyable, faith- elevating, inspiration-filled trip that promises to deliver an unmatched Umrah experience then choose one of our exclusive packages below:
Makkah
After years of facing towards this great city in each and every prayer and learning about the magnificent history of this most blessed place on Earth, you can now finally pray in front of the first house built and dedicated for the worship of Allah – the Ka’bah. You’ll hear, live, the glorious call to prayer from the famous muadhins, calling ‘Allahu Akbar, Allaaaahu Akbar’ as the sound of the adhaan echoes from the speakers and moves your soul and elevates your imaan. As you join the rows, lines straight and hearts upright, seeking to draw closer to Allah, standing before Him in humility and prayer, you realise, Allah has chosen you to be His Guest in this great journey of faith.
Mazarat
Join us as we relive some of the most defining moments in the history of Islam. Experience the DST difference with our immersive historical tour of Makkah delivered by expert guides that will transport you a prophetic era.
A moving and inspiring story of seclusion and revelation, of prophethood and perseverance, it all starts with a trip to Jabal al Noor, the Mountain of Light, where the Prophet (ﷺ) first received revelation.
Learn about the persecution faced by early Muslims and how they were driven out of Makkah whilst holding firmly onto their faith. Learn about the migration of the Prophet (ﷺ) and the remarkable occurrences at Jabal Thawr that instilled within the believers lessons of tawakkul, of absolute, unwavering reliance in Allah SWT.
Visit the iconic Jabal Ar-Rahmah, the Mount of Mercy, whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) delivered his famous last sermon and the site which forms the pinnacle of the rites of Hajj. Journey through Mina, the city of tents, where pilgrims follow the example of the Prophet and stay for several days during the Hajj and pelt the three Jamarat, symbolic of warding off the devil and rooted in the story of Ibrahim (عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ).
For the ultimate experience, join us for our unique and exclusive ‘Walking Tour of AlMasjid AlHaram’, where we recount some of the most notable moments and places, delivered by our renowned expert guides.
An immersive experience of the history of Makkah like never before.
Madinah
Madinah is known and loved for the tranquillity that it brings to our hearts – that feeling that we have finally made it back home – home is definitely where the heart is and our hearts are profoundly connected with a deep love of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and his beautiful city. It is city that is filled with stories of love and sacrifice, of prophetic wisdom and illustrious companionship. Madinah is a city that keeps on giving – rich in history and lessons that build our faith and traditions and inspire us to become the best versions of ourselves. Welcome home, welcome to Madinah.
Mazarat
Travel back in time with us as we go back some 1400 years and relive some of the most significant moments in the life of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and his companions. Exclusive to DST, a unique and immersive experience that will leave you longing for more.
From the very first masjid built in Madinah, which the Prophet (ﷺ) himself help construct, Masjid Quba, to Masjid Qiblatain – the masjid of two qiblahs – where the companions prayed in two directions as the qiblah changed from Masjid Al Aqsa in Jerusalem to Masjid Al Haram in Makkah. Be prepared to be in awe of the rich history and insights gained from this tour.
You may be tempted to unsheathe your sword as we recount the epic Battle of Uhud where over seventy companions were killed, live and on site. You’ll get to ascend the archers mount as well as visit and pray for the Martyrs of Uhud.
For the ultimate experience, join us for our exclusive ‘Walking Tour of the Prophet’s Masjid’, where we recount some of the most notable moments in what was then the entire city of Madinah, delivered by our renowned expert guides.
An immersive experience of the history of Madinah like never before.
