"When you take a pilgrim ensure that you try to fulfill all their needs, if you cannot, call someone who can" said the trainer to the group. "You will regret it if you do not, it will come back and haunt you, I know it cause I did not attempt it once" he continued. Those two lines echo in my mind even today. I failed to apply it and I may regret about it all my life. I was attending the Hajj volunteer class to help Hajjis of 2010.
I went to Hajj with my Wife during 2009. We left our children in our friends place. It was raining when we climbed the bus and it rained heavily in Mina. It almost drenched my bed since I was positioned near to the entrance of the tent. Unknown to us at that time was the fact that Jeddah was flooding resulting in many deaths. By the grace of God Hajj was peaceful.
