After successful completion of Hajj the pilgrims return

The one-month program for our pilgrims ends on 22^nd of October. Fortunately no one from the Bulgarian pilgrims deceased in the holy lands or suffered serious illnesses except one, who suffered sunstroke and is normally recovering.

The pilgrims who are already packing up for their returning a day before their return made a joint supplication in front of the Green Kubba of Masjid Al-Nabawi.

During the final dua (supplication), made by the Deputy Grand Mufti Vedat S. Ahmed, the pilgrims expressed gratitude to the Almighty for the opportunity to be His guests in this one month and for the smooth performance of the Hajj rituals. They asked from the Almighty acceptance their deeds, forgiveness of the wrongdoings, health, happiness, personal success, grace, tranquility and peace for the family, the country, the Muslim community all over the world and for all the people on the Earth.

After the join ritual to the departure from Medina the pilgrims will perform their farewell prayers and rituals in the city of the Messenger of Allah and will greet him for a last time with the hope and the desire to touch his blessed land one more time in their life.
