With high temperatures and lots of walking, it’s important to work towards achieving optimal health before travelling. Prioritise hydration and eating well-balanced, healthy meals to ensure you feel your best before you begin your journey.

Keep a Dua List

Creating a dua list to take with you will make for a more meaningful experience. Be sure to include prayers for gratitude, forgiveness, personal goals, and prayers for friends, family, and mankind.
