Mohamed and Fadile Sayed, New York
“We wanted to come a few years ago, but something came up not allowing us to make the trip. I could not imagine going on this journey without my wife by my side. Though we have been extremely busy with our businesses, I promised myself that if things worked out for us in our new endeavor, we would make Hajj this year instead of waiting. Being here as a couple has been beautiful. We share many beautiful moments together and this was another blessing to have. Coming with Dar Al-Salam Michigan helped us meet more amazing people who will be lifelong friends.”
