In fact, with the passage of time the number of Umrah pilgrims is only increasing, as according to ArabNews thousands of pilgrims are gathering in Madinah now a days. The media outlet also revealed that these Umrah pilgrims are visiting various holy places in the city like Prophet’s Mosque, other places of worship and different historical sites in Madinah.


According to the report, lot of visitors can be seen going on organised tours to Al-Qiblatain, the Quba and various other mosques in Madinah just as the day begins. It was also observed that many pilgrims are also taking pictures of these historical and holy sites, so they can take good memories of the trip back home.


Sharing his thoughts a Pakistani pilgrim, Gamar Nawaz said that he ensured that he would visit all the historical sites and mosques in Madinah. According to him, Madinah has a special place in the hearts of all the Muslims, no matter where they are from. 

Wasel Husni, another pilgrim said that he has performed Umrah quite a few times. He said that every time he comes to Madinah it’s a priority for him to visit mosques like Al-Qiblatain, Shuhada, Quba along with other historical places of the city. Husni said that these sites are not only heritage of Islam, but are also affluence of all Muslims. Therefore, during each trip he spends a long time in the holy city says Husni. 

Wasel also said that it gives him great joy and pleasure whenever he comes to Madinah near Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) who is greatest of all human beings. He said that he often gets overwhelmed with the happiness that drifts and roams in the holy city, including the Al-Rumat Mountain of Uhud, where one of the most important battles of Islamic history was fought.
