The Lady in Hajj & Umrah

 The Lady in Hajj & Umrah : New,
*Pocket Size Booklet - 80 pages,
by M.S. Banoo,
Published by IBS, India.



Description :



Handy size Travel Guide for Sisters. This booklet is specifically directed at ladies who go for Hajj and Umrah pilgrimage. Many women set out for this important journey with little or no guidance whatsoever especially on the religious side.


Life and society is totally different to lifestyles in other countries especially the western dominated cultures. The need is to adapt to that way rather than impose or practise our ways and habits, of which many are contrary to the Deen.


It contains a wealth of useful and practical information and is blunt to the point of warning those who insist on only travelling by seeking out ''5 Star luxuries and comforts.''
