please tell me your best 9/11 facts im actually curiojs

1. This is my favorite fact of all. there exists a photo of one of the hijackers doing bong rips. the sad part is we aren't allowed to see it. I asked all the right ppl but unfortunately its not something the public will probably get to see :(

2. Mohamed Atta once went to see the jungle book in theaters with his roommate in germany. He (Atta) got so mad about all the people talking during the movie that he kept angrily muttering "Chaos!" the entire time and was so mad about the whole ordeal he shut himself in his room the rest of the day.

3. So lets talk about jet fuel and steel beams. Sure, jet fuel itself cant melt beams. What really happened is the impact of the plane crash blew off the fireproofing in the towers. The jet fuel and the explosion ignited a lot of fires, and the steel beams of the towers started to become malleable (not melted!) from the intense heat, causing the walls of the towers to bend in on themselves. Eventually the force of the walls sagging became so intense that the building collapsed in on itself, causing a sort of domino effect. The twin towers were constructed with a method that is characteristically different than other skyscrapers have been built with. I am not too well versed on the physics of it all, but basically, a unique construction led to a unique collapse and that is "the deal" with the way the towers fell. Also, some of the jet fuel fell into the elevator shafts and exploded into flames on lower floors. Basically, the fact the towers were built to be more open and hollow compared to other skyscrapers meant that a lot of fires were able to spread in these circumstances.

4. The architect for the WTC actually worked with The Saudi Binladin Group, a construction conglomerate founded by Osama Bin Laden's Father. As far as I know, thats as far as the connection goes between the two and anything that says theres more to this is just kind of unfounded theorizing

5. observers actually thought that flight 77 (the one that crashed into the pentagon) was a military aircraft, because the speed and advanced manuevers they saw made them think it was a military plane. On that note, the hijacker pilot of this flight, Hani Hanjour, was unique in that he had a career as a commercial pilot beforehand in the 90s.

6. Ziad Jarrah's roommate in florida once saw him crash a plane into a building while playing microsoft flight simulator. He (the roommate) found it funny at the time, but not in hindsight, of course.

7. Also, according to this same roommate, Jarrah really enjoyed watching the show F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

8. Ironically, when designing the WTC, they did wonder about a situation if a jet airliner were to crash into the towers.

9. Also when designing the world trade center, they increased the floor space plan to be (coincidentally) about as large as that as the pentagon.

10. Mohamed Atta's email was discovered to have contained file attachments infected with the SirCam malware. (i just like this fact bc its a crossover between my special interests. malware and 9/11.)

11. Lastly, they actually didnt decide on what targets to hit in the attack until July of 2001 despite having planned the attack for the past 3 years!!! crazy!

The 23rd Anniversary of September 11, 2001

Paul Craig Roberts

Time passes. An entire generation has grown up since that day when a few Saudi Arabians armed only with box cutters caused airport safety to fail four times on the same morning, caused the entire US/NATO/Mossad security system to fail, caused the WTC towers constructed to withstand airliner collisions to collapse into dust by flying hijacked airliners into them, and attack the Pentagon using maneuvers of which airliners and pilots are incapable and destroying the section of the Pentagon where the documents were that explained where the Pentagon’s missing billions or was it trillions of dollars had gone. During these hours of activity the US Air Force was unable to get interceptors off the ground, and no evidence has ever been found of the passengers on the four hijacked airliners. But an undamaged passport of one of the alleged hijackers were found in the ruins of two hundred-storied skyscrapers. And Americans fell for this totally unbelievable story. What hope is there for Americans?

It took a year of pressure on the Bush/Cheney regime to get a commission established that instead of an investigation wrote down the official narrative as dictated to them. Later the commission co-chairmen and legal counsel wrote books saying that the government withheld information and set the commission up to fail.

It only took 10 minutes for a high school physics professor to demolish NIST’s multi-year computer simulation of the collapse of Building 7, the 47 story WTC building that a BBC reporter stood in front of announcing its collapse 30 minutes ahead of the collapse. They knew the building was slated for destruction, but the word got out prior to the event. Silverstein, who owned or had the leases to the World Trade Center said on live TV that the decision was made to pull building 7. You can’t pull a building unless it is wired, a time-consuming complex job.

It is totally obvious that all 3 buildings were wired for demolition. Building 7 collapsed at free fall acceleration, and the two towers at essentially the same speed. This can only be achieved by controlled demolition. If the alleged Muslim hijackers wired the buildings–an impossibility–what is the point of flying airliners into them?

The orchestrated event was used by Washington to launch wars in the Middle East against Israel’s opponents. Norman Podhoretz at Commentary had called for these wars, and US four star general Wesley Clark, NATO’s commander in chief, later confirmed that Pentagon generals showed him war plans calling for the US to overthrow “Seven countries in five years.”

Little of this extraordinary evidence had any impression on insouciant Americans who swallowed the false narrative hook, line, and sinker.

Consequently, Washington destroyed Iraq and Libya and was about to destroy Syria, but the Russians intervened. Israel has kept the American gun aimed at Iran, but Putin has said Russia will not tolerate an attack on Iran.

Umrah Tours for Families: How to Make Your Pilgrimage More Sustainable

The Umrah pilgrimage is a deeply spiritual journey for Muslims, offering a chance to connect with their faith while visiting the holy cities of Mecca and Medina. For families, making this journey together is a special experience that strengthens bonds and creates lifelong memories. However, with the increasing number of pilgrims, environmental concerns have grown around the impact of such large gatherings on the sacred sites and surrounding ecosystems. To address this, many families are exploring ways to make their Umrah tours more sustainable.

Sustainability is about reducing the environmental footprint of our actions, including travel. By incorporating eco-friendly practices into your Umrah journey, you can not only fulfill your religious obligations but also ensure that you are caring for the planet and the future of pilgrimage. This article will guide families on how to plan an eco-conscious Umrah tour while ensuring a meaningful and comfortable experience for all members.

1. Choose Eco-Friendly Travel Packages

When planning an Umrah tour for your family, the first step is to choose a sustainable travel package. Many travel agencies are now offering eco-friendly options that focus on minimizing the environmental impact of the pilgrimage. These packages may include:

Group travel: Opting for group tours reduces the carbon footprint per person by minimizing the number of flights and vehicles used.

Energy-efficient accommodations: Choose hotels that use renewable energy sources, practice water conservation, and have recycling programs in place.

Digital services: Many tour operators now offer digital services like e-tickets, mobile apps, and online check-ins to reduce the use of paper and other disposable resources.

By selecting a responsible tour operator, you ensure that your journey aligns with sustainable values right from the start.

2. Limit Air Travel Emissions

Air travel is one of the largest contributors to carbon emissions, and reducing the environmental impact of your flights is a crucial step toward sustainability. Here’s how families can limit their carbon footprint while traveling for Umrah:

Book non-stop flights: Direct flights use less fuel than those with multiple layovers. If possible, choose non-stop flights to minimize emissions.

Fly economy class: Economy class seating uses less space per person than business or first class, resulting in a lower environmental impact per traveler.

Carbon offset programs: Many airlines now offer carbon offset programs, allowing passengers to contribute to environmental initiatives that help neutralize the emissions caused by their flights. Consider purchasing carbon offsets for your family’s journey.

3. Pack Light and Sustainably

Packing light for Umrah not only makes your journey more comfortable but also reduces the weight on the aircraft, helping to lower fuel consumption. In addition, make eco-friendly choices when it comes to the items you pack:

Reusable water bottles: Hydration is crucial during Umrah, especially in the desert climate of Saudi Arabia. Carry reusable water bottles to reduce the need for single-use plastic bottles.

Eco-friendly toiletries: Bring biodegradable or plastic-free toiletries like bamboo toothbrushes, natural soaps, and reusable containers for personal care products.

Minimal clothing: Umrah does not require an elaborate wardrobe, so pack only the essentials. Opt for lightweight, sustainable fabrics that can be worn multiple times without needing frequent washing.

By packing responsibly, you minimize waste and reduce your environmental impact throughout the trip.

4. Use Public Transport or Walk Where Possible

Saudi Arabia has invested heavily in its public transportation infrastructure, especially in the holy cities. Many eco-conscious travelers are now choosing to use public transport instead of private cars to reduce carbon emissions. The Haramain High-Speed Railway connects Mecca and Medina, offering a sustainable travel option for families moving between these cities.

Within the holy cities, try to walk as much as possible. Not only does walking reduce your carbon footprint, but it also provides a more intimate, spiritually connected experience. Families can use this time to reflect and engage with each other in the spirit of pilgrimage, making the journey more meaningful.

5. Respect the Environment and Sacred Sites

While on Umrah, it is essential to be mindful of the environment and the sacred spaces you are visiting. Here are some ways to practice environmental responsibility during the pilgrimage:

Minimize waste: Avoid littering in the holy sites. Carry a small bag for any trash and dispose of it properly in recycling or waste bins.

Avoid single-use plastics: While food and drink are often distributed at the holy sites, bring your reusable containers and utensils to avoid single-use plastics like cups and cutlery.

Conserve water: Water is a precious resource, especially in desert regions. Be mindful of water usage when performing ablutions and other religious practices. Use only what is necessary and avoid wastage.

6. Teach Sustainability to Children

One of the most valuable aspects of embarking on an Umrah tour as a family is the opportunity to instill values in your children. Use this journey as a chance to teach the next generation about the importance of environmental stewardship and sustainability. Explain to them why your family is making eco-friendly choices and encourage them to participate in practices like reducing waste, conserving water, and respecting nature.

Conclusion

Undertaking Umrah as a family is a deeply rewarding experience, one that offers spiritual fulfillment and lifelong memories. By making conscious choices to reduce your environmental impact, you can ensure that your Umrah tour is not only meaningful but also sustainable. From choosing eco-friendly travel packages to minimizing waste and conserving resources, there are many ways to practice sustainability on your pilgrimage. Through these efforts, families can help protect the environment while upholding the sacred values of their faith.

Ponder upon what you aspire to accomplish through this odyssey; are you in search of absolution, seeking to strengthen your bond with Allah (SWT), or simply striving to fulfill an age-old yearning? A well-defined purpose shall pave the way for your deeds and intensify the spiritual weight of your journey.

Securing Your Entry Permit: The Visa Process

An Embassy or Consulate of Saudi Arabia usually issues Umrah visas for UK residents. Collect the needed documents, including passport (valid for at least six months after the return date), proof of accommodation booking, and maybe a return flight ticket. Remember to apply for the visa early as processing times differ — make sure it is well ahead of your departure date from Nottingham.

Travel Logistics: Planning Your Journey from Nottingham

It's easy to find direct flights from major UK airports such as London to Jeddah or Madinah. However, if these do not fit your budget or schedule, think of alternative routes that include layovers. Be sure to check out airlines' reliability and compare their fares; this way you can secure the best deal for your Umrah trip from Nottingham. When it comes to accommodation, go for reputable hotels or serviced apartments near the Haram (Grand Mosque) in Makah and the Prophet's Mosque in Madinah— prioritize their proximity to these holy sites for easier access during your pilgrimage.

Understanding spiritual rituals:

Don't just head to your Umrah from Nottingham blindly; know what the crucial Umrah rituals entail? There are plenty of resources that can be of great help like online tutorials, guidebooks, or even sessions before departure offered by mosques or Islamic organizations in Nottingham. Get to know about Ihram (the seamless garments worn during Umrah), Tawaf (circumambulation around the Kaaba), Sa'i (the walking between Safa and Marwa), and the prayers said at each point. The more knowledgeable you are, the more you can concentrate on the spiritual essence of each ritual during your Umrah.

Essential items to pack for Umrah:

When departing Nottingham for your Umrah, ensure your luggage contains comfortable and breathable clothing that will keep you warm in the cool winter climates of Makah and Madinah. Remember that both men and women are required to dress modestly during this spiritual journey. Pack Ihram clothes, walking shoes that are comfortable when worn, a rug for praying, and a women’s headscarf as well as another scarf and hat that will keep you warm in addition to sunscreen. You should also have toiletries, medicine like drugs, and water. Remember that you have to move lightly because of the congested areas, especially near these holy places.

Travel Tips and Considerations for Umrah from Nottingham

Currency Exchange: Carry some Saudi Riyals (SAR) with you by converting some British Pounds (GBP) before your trip is over so as to use them for small expenses. Makah and Madinah have many ATMs.

Communication: It can be wise after your arrival to purchase a local SIM card for cheap telephone calls or even internet access.

Travel Insurance: Get travel insurance so that you can be covered by any uncertainties.

Respectful Conduct: In Saudi Arabia, treat other pilgrims respectfully and observe local customs. Familiarize yourself with basic Arabic greetings to improve your experience.

Setting Out on Your Spiritual Journey: The Life-Changing Experience

When you face Kaaba, say Talbiyah (Umrah’s declaration of intent) with a sincere mind. Every ritual beginning with Tawaf towards Sa’i gives room for supplication, reflection, and connection with Allah (SWT). Understand the spiritual significance of every step you can be sure to make the trip. You just need to plan your journey carefully.

Returning Home Transformed: Carrying the Blessings Forward

After performing Umrah, returned home to Nottingham, your life will never be the same again. Share this grace with those close to you and keep the spiritual force going by applying whatever you have learned in your life as a whole. Use your trip as a seed of personal growth and increased commitment to religion.

Conclusion

Doing Umrah from Nottingham may sound like an uphill task at face value but a well-laid-down plan will ensure that it becomes realistic rather than a mere wish.

Choosing the best flight option for Umrah from the UK

Your Umrah pilgrimage is a holy trip that offers an opportunity to deepen your faith and realize a long-held desire. Selecting the best flight from the UK to Makah is a vital step to make before the rites start. Making decisions might be difficult because there are so many options easily accessible. Traveler, do not be frightened! With the information in this guide, you will be able to pick the ideal flight option for your Umrah journey with confidence. Let’s dive into choosing the best flight options for Umrah from the UK.

Direct Flights Connecting vs. Flights:

Choosing between price and accessibility is the first important choice. Traveling by direct flight from main UK airports such as Manchester or London Heathrow is easy and simple. You take off from the UK and arrive in Jeddah or Madinah, Saudi Arabia, prepared to start your Umrah pilgrimage. Direct flights, however, often turn out to be more expensive. There can be considerable savings on connecting flights with stopovers in different cities. The cost in kind? Longer journey times, possible delays, and the difficulty of going through several airports. Think about your priorities: Connecting flights may be an option if cost is a top priority. Even so, buying a direct ticket can make sense if you're on a tight time frame or just want a stress-free trip.

Choosing Your Airline: A Balancing in Reputation & Service

Begin to explore the realm of aviation. Flights to Saudi Arabia for Umrah are available from the UK on many reputable carriers. Choose airlines with a stellar service reputation, a strong protection history, and experience serving Umrah pilgrims, even while the price is a concern. Look for airlines that have a history of being on time and offering cozy cabins with facilities that are ideal for lengthy flights. Seek out airlines that provide dietary-conscious in-flight meals, especially if you're following Halal requirements. A few of airlines also provide specific areas for prayer and restrooms, which can further improve your comfort level while flying. Do not hesitate to analyze the costs and services provided by various airlines. Numerous travel agencies working online can assist you in finding affordable flight tickets as they deal in Umrah packages.

Saudi Arabian Airports of Departure & Arrival: Jeddah vs. Madinah

After selecting a carrier and flight category, think about the Saudi Arabian airport of your choice for landing. King Abdul-Aziz International Airport (JED) in Jeddah and Prince Mohammed bin Abdul-Aziz Airport (MED) in Madinah are the two main choices. If spending extra time in the holy city is the most important thing on your Umrah schedule, Jeddah is an appealing choice because it is closer to Makah. Still, Madinah is extremely important since it is the place where Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is interred. Arriving in Madinah, many pilgrims opt to explore the Prophet's Mosque and other historic sites for a few days before continuing to Makah for the Umrah events. The optimal option boils down to the best itinerary and the purpose of your Umrah trip.

Taking Layover Options into Account (for Connecting Flights)

When selecting a connecting flight, be sure to look into your alternatives for layovers thoroughly. Short layovers save time on the road, but if your first flight is delayed, they may also result in difficult connections and more tension. Think of a few-hour layover; this will give you enough time to get off the plane, rest your legs, and maybe even pray in peace at the airport's designated prayer areas. Some airlines provide layovers at historically or culturally important locations. Before continuing to Makah, you can boost your stay and visit these locations during the layovers.

Early vs. Last-Minute Flight Booking:

The cost of your flight may vary greatly based on when you book. Significant savings can be achieved by making advance travel reservations, especially in the off-season. But this involves being flexible with your travel schedule. If you have decided on travel dates, keep an eye on airfares. At the last minute offers are made by certain airlines, however, they can be unstable and dependent on accessibility. Supply Umrah packages. You may get alerts about price cuts and exclusive offers that match your vacation dates. Read also: The key facts when choosing flights from the UK to Umrah

To Finalize

Surely taking care of flights favors you so you can easily embark on you spiritual journey having no stress at all. Additionally reliable travel agents will also help you taking care of your unexpected issues as well.

Umrah in October: A Simple Guide

Why Choose October for Umrah?

Nice Weather

One big advantage of doing Umrah in October is the pleasant weather. Saudi Arabia can be extremely hot in the summer, making July a tough time for many pilgrims. By October, the weather is cooler, making it more comfortable to perform rituals and travel. This is a big difference from the intense heat you might face during Umrah in July.

Fewer People

October is not as busy as the peak Umrah seasons, such as Ramadan or the Hajj season. This means that the holy sites in Mecca and Medina are less crowded. You can perform your rituals more peacefully, without the long lines and congestion that happen during the busiest times.

Lower Costs

Traveling for Umrah in October can be cheaper. Airlines and hotels often lower their prices when it’s not peak season, making it more affordable. Hajj Umrah Travels offers special packages for October Umrah to give you the best value for your trip.

Getting Ready for Your October Umrah

Spiritual Preparation

Umrah is a spiritual journey. Start preparing by increasing your prayers, reading the Quran, and making du’as (supplications). Learn about the rites of Umrah and make a list of personal prayers you want to say while in the holy cities.

Physical Preparation

Even though October is cooler, you should be physically ready. Exercise regularly to build stamina, as you’ll be walking a lot and performing physical rituals. Make sure you’re healthy, and check with your doctor if you have any medical conditions.

Packing Essentials

Pack items that are necessary and comfortable. Here’s a list of must-haves:

Ihram Clothing: Two white seamless cloths for men, and modest, comfortable clothing for women. Comfortable Footwear: Lightweight and comfortable sandals or shoes. Personal Hygiene Items: Unscented soap, shampoo, and deodorant. Medical Supplies: Any prescribed medications, a first aid kit, and over-the-counter medicines for common issues. Travel Documents: Passport, visa, travel itinerary, and any required vaccination certificates.

Travel with Uajj Umrah Travels

Flights and Transportation

October offers many flight options to Saudi Arabia. Book your tickets early to get the best prices. Hajj Umrah Travels can help you find the most convenient flights.

Once you arrive in Saudi Arabia, you can choose from various transportation options. Taxis, ride-sharing services, and buses are available to take you from the airport to your accommodation. We also offer personalized transportation services for a smooth transfer to your hotel.

Accommodation

Choosing the right place to stay is important for a comfortable trip. There are many hotels and guesthouses near the holy sites. Think about how close it is to the Haram, the amenities offered, and your budget. Hajj Umrah Travels provides various accommodation options to fit your needs and preferences.

Performing the Rites of Umrah

Entering Ihram

Ihram is the sacred state you must enter before performing Umrah. For men, this means wearing two white cloths, and for women, it means wearing modest, plain clothing. At the Miqat (designated station), perform ghusl (ritual purification), put on the Ihram garments, and make the intention (niyyah) for Umrah.

Tawaf

The first rite of Umrah is Tawaf, where you walk around the Kaaba seven times in a counter-clockwise direction. This act shows the unity of Muslims in worshiping one God. Even though October is less crowded, be patient and respectful to other pilgrims.

Sa’i

After Tawaf, pilgrims perform Sa’i, which means walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwah. This act remembers Hagar’s search for water. Wear comfortable shoes, as this involves a lot of walking.

Halq or Taqsir

The final rite is Halq (shaving the head) for men or Taqsir (trimming the hair) for women. Men are encouraged to shave their heads, while women cut a small portion of their hair. This act signifies the end of Ihram and the completion of Umrah.

Visiting Medina

The Prophet’s Mosque

Visiting Medina, the city of Prophet Muhammad, is highly recommended. The Prophet’s Mosque (Masjid an-Nabawi) is very important spiritually. You can offer prayers, send blessings to the Prophet, and visit the Rawdah, considered one of the gardens of Paradise.

Historical Sites

Medina is rich in Islamic history. Sites such as Quba Mosque, the first mosque built by the Prophet, and the Uhud battlefield, where an important battle took place, are worth visiting. These sites offer a deeper understanding of the Prophet’s life and early Islam.

Practical Tips for October Umrah

Stay Hydrated and Eat Well

Even though October is cooler, staying hydrated is important. Carry a water bottle and drink regularly. Eat nutritious meals to keep your energy levels up. There are many places around the holy sites offering a variety of food.

Manage Your Time

Plan your activities to make the most of your time. Set specific times for performing rituals, visiting sites, and resting. This ensures a balanced and fulfilling experience without feeling overwhelmed.

Be Safe

Always stay aware of your surroundings. Keep your personal belongings secure, and avoid carrying large sums of money or valuable items. Know the emergency contact numbers and the location of your country’s consulate or embassy.

Comparing Umrah in October and July

Weather

As mentioned, October offers cooler weather compared to the intense heat of July. This makes the pilgrimage more comfortable and less tiring. Pilgrims in July often face challenges like heat exhaustion and dehydration, which are less of a concern in October.

Crowds

July, especially if it overlaps with the Hajj season, sees a lot of pilgrims, making it very crowded. October, on the other hand, is less crowded, providing a calmer and easier environment for worship.

Costs Travel and accommodation costs are generally lower in October compared to July. Airlines and hotels increase their prices during peak seasons due to high demand. Therefore, October can be a more budget-friendly option for many pilgrims.
