My name is Tasneem Salim, I was blessed to have gone on this wonderful trip for Umrah. Even though I have been a few times before I found it totally important for myself, to keep my love and faith in ALLAH alive inside me, on going and focussed. We all have it, but sometimes we need to rejuvenate and focus on whats really important. I felt this trip addressed this. The tour guides were excellent and talked us through everything which was important and relevant. We were also able to do our own ibaadat, as and when we could. It was well organised and humble in its entirety. Everything was catered for the only things you have to take with you is your belongings, humbleness and love for ALLAH and his Messenger p.b.u.h. I have found that if we keep our heart open for goodness and free from bad things, ALLAH will fill it continuously with goodness inshaAllah. A brilliant experience in everyway. I would recommend anyone to avail this opportunity.

Assalamualaykum my dear brothers and sisters in Islam. First of all Alhamdulillah. Thank you to our Lord the most High, the most Merciful Allah who gave me the opportunity to visit his home. Salam, peace and blessings to the greatest of creation our Habib Muhammad PBUH. I went to Umrah for the very first time with AMF on their very first trip and it was spectacular! From start to finish amazing. The organisers communication, organisation, care, attention to detail and flexibility was excellent. Ustadh Rehan, May Allah preserve him, was approachable, very warm, very knowledgeable and was always smiling which filled the heart with sakeena. I hope to go again with AMF but with my family Insha’Allah. I would recommend AMF to everyone! This was their first trip and it’s only up from here. BarakAllahu Feek.

Alhamdulilah I was blessed with the opportunity to go on my first umrah trip with Al-Marifah foundation. Al-Marifah from outset were outstanding from the moment I signed up, a dedicated contact to ask any questions/queries all the way through to amazing spiritual trip. The trip was truly amazing, great location for hotels, ziyarats, spiritual talks. Honestly I learnt so much whilst on this trip and the team are truly amazing. I highly recommend Al-Marifah and honestly felt like I went with a group but came back with new family members. May Allah(SBWTA) bless the Al-Marifah members with success and many more trips to come. Inshallah a Hajj trip next please Al-Marifah 😊

Attending an Umrah trip with Al Marifah Foundation was a profoundly spiritual experience that I will forever treasure. One standout memory was being just meters away from the Mataaf as Maghrib cast its gentle glow over the Holy Mosque, and the Black Stone was within reach—a moment of deep connection to my faith. The guided Ziyaarat (tour) with Ustaad Rehaan was remarkable. His insights into the landmark sites enriched our understanding and made the journey even more meaningful. What truly made this trip exceptional was the sense of unity fostered by traveling with a group. The bond we formed with our fellow brothers was extraordinary, and their support throughout the journey was heartwarming. Al Marifah Foundation's meticulous planning and unwavering commitment to providing a spiritually enriching experience were evident at every turn. This Umrah trip was not just a journey but a life-changing event, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of it. Thank you, Al Marifah Foundation, for creating this unforgettable experience.

Alhamdulillah I had the incredible opportunity to embark on AlMa’rifah’s first ever Umrah trip with a remarkable group. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the experience Ustadh Rehan and the rest of the AlMa’rifah team facilitated. May Allah bless them all. The Team’s meticulous planning, attention to detail and dedication to our comfort allowed me to focus entirely on my spiritual journey. They were most helpful in assisting us whenever needed, from recommending places to eat at to helping with luggage and everything in between. Our guides were also knowledgeable and deeply passionate about conveying the historical and religious context of each sacred location we visited which enriched the experience for us all. There was a balance between organised talks and moments for personal contemplation which was very important for me. Overall, the Team went above and beyond at every stage of the trip. I look back and consider myself truly blessed to have travelled with AlMa’rifah. Every moment was nothing short of perfect, I would not change a thing about my experience, and I am sure others who decide to join their trips will feel the same. May Allah put endless barakah in their work!

Embarking on the sacred journey of Umrah with Al-Ma'rifah Foundation was a profoundly spiritual experience that left an indelible mark on my soul. From the moment I set foot in the holy city of Makkah and gazed upon the Kaaba, I felt an overwhelming sense of awe and humility, as if the very air around me was charged with divine grace. Praying at the sacred sanctuaries of Makkah and Madinah was a privilege beyond words, and the warm hospitality of the locals, the camaraderie among fellow pilgrims from all corners of the world, and the shared sense of purpose created a deep sense of unity and brotherhood. Visiting the sites of mosques, date gardens and battles was more than just a privilege; it was a profound encounter with history and spirituality. We didn't merely observe these historic locations; rather, we embarked on a journey through time and space, with Ustadh Rehan masterfully narrating the rich stories that each place held. I highly recommend going on this transformative journey with AMF. Their meticulous organization, unwavering support, and commitment to the spiritual well-being of every pilgrim ensured that every aspect of the trip was seamless and spiritually enriching. This Umrah journey was a spiritual awakening that touched the core of my being, and I am deeply grateful to Sajjaad, Ustadh Rehan and the others for making it an experience I will cherish forever. It has not only enriched my life; it has transformed it, guiding me on the path of faith, humility, and resilience.

I had an amazing time with the Al-Ma'rifah group Umrah trip in May - alhamdulillah. Brilliant organisation, great hotels but the highlight was the spiritually uplifting experience I had as part of a group with one of my favourite Imams leading us all. Alhamdulillah a true blessing and one that I can't wait to do all over again insha’Allah!
