Even so, he emphasized that this umrah was a very beautiful and meaningful experience. "There is a special prayer. But the most important thing is that the umrah yesterday was a beautiful experience that I gained," he said.
Not just a physical journey, for Jennifer, this umrah was also a spiritual journey that deepened her faith. She felt herself getting closer to Allah and tried to be more diligent in performing her worship.
"The spiritual experience made me want to be closer to Allah, reminding me that death is something no one knows and can happen at any time," explained the 23-year-old woman.
Jennifer also reflected on the meaning of life and the importance of doing good while we are still alive. For her, this umrah journey reminded her to focus more on worship and good deeds.
"So we must be able to do good and pray a lot, store up good deeds, so that when the time comes, we can be saved from the fire of hell," she added.
2. Kamari Is Not Fussy
One of the things that makes this Umrah journey more special is the presence of her daughter, Kamari Sky Wassink. Jennifer invited Kamari to join in the worship, and she feels very grateful because her daughter was not fussy during the trip.
"It felt like I wasn't carrying anything at all," said Jennifer.
Jennifer also revealed that before departing for Umrah, she often prayed for a smooth journey and that the burden she carried while taking care of Kamari felt lighter. She also frequently communicated spiritually with her late husband, Dali, asking for support and strength.
"Before Umrah, I always prayed for it to go smoothly, and talked to Dali's spirit too, so he could help lift the burden," she concluded.
