A spiritual voyage,
An overwhelming pilgrimage,
Where all muslms come together,
For the sake of Allah,
From every race and colour,
Different social background,
Rich and poor,
Old and young,
Far and near,
Arabia, Africa, Asia,
America, Europe, Australia,
All become one in Mecca,
A mere pilgrim in white robe,
Kneeling before Allah,
Chanting "Labbayk Allahuma Labbayk",
And tears roll down every cheek,
In an atmosphere so intense,
Crowded with energy,
And Devout prayer,
As hearts beat in unity,
With excitement plenty,
Hajj, a duty for every muslim,
To experience,
And feel the unique oneness.

A wonderful summary of one of the most basic experiences in being a Muslim. May the light of the hajj last in your soul forever!
The oneness of the divine is the oneness of the world and the oneness of souls.
May Allahu subhanahu wa ta'ala rejoice in the sacred beauty that has entered your heart!
