Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Allah ﷻ says in the Qur’an:
“Say, [O Muhammad], ‘Travel through the land and observe how He began creation. Then Allah will produce the final creation. Indeed Allah, over all things, is competent.’ (Qur’an 29:20)
When we travel, especially for Hajj and Umrah, it is not just movement from one place to another—it is a chance to witness the signs of Allah and strengthen our faith. For those who have traveled with this intention, how did this verse resonate with your journey?

In Qur’an 29:20, Allah says:
"Travel through the land and observe how He began creation. Then Allah will produce the final creation. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent."
This verse reminds us that traveling is not merely for leisure but a means of spiritual reflection and growth. When we journey through Allah’s creation, we witness His signs in the mountains, seas, and people—each revealing His power and wisdom. Traveling with this mindset deepens our iman (faith) and helps us appreciate the vastness of Allah’s mercy and knowledge.
Just as one seeks a Quran Tajweed teacher to perfect recitation and understand Allah’s words accurately, traveling for His sake refines the heart and broadens one’s understanding of His creation. Both pursuits—learning the Quran and exploring the world—are forms of worship when done with sincere intention.
Thus, traveling for the sake of Allah is not only a physical journey but also a journey of faith, leading us closer to Him through reflection, knowledge, and gratitude.
