Soloman Sharif (HAJJ 2007)::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

This is my first Hajj; I was expecting it to be difficult based on what I have heard from Other Brothers who went to Hajj in previous years. But this Hajj experience with Almanasik made me doubt what other people have said… it was a very good and easy journey … Almanasik staff provided us with the best services we can ever expected and more, the hotel stay was great, the food was excellent, the apartment was clean and comfortable, I cant complain about anything, we were the only Hajjes who felt the Eid. Almanasik have decorated our tents and made us a nice celebration with all kind of fruits and deserts

Fatin Taha (HAJJ 2007)::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Last year 2007 I went with my husband to Hajj with Almanasik ( Br. Farid) With Almanasik Hajj journey was very organized, there staff were very helpful From airport to airport. Hotel stay, the food buffet for breakfast and dinner was unbeatable the apartment stay and medical services was excellent. In the apartment Almanasik were very creative to satisfy us , they brought a Shawirma machine in addition to the other food .. I thought that was very impressive. Thank you Almanasik for all you have done to make our Hajj a successful spiritual trip

Tracy & Qaiser Varis(HAJJ 2007)::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Assalamo Alakim,
My name is Tracy Varis (I am a revert to Islam) and I was able to make my Hajj this year with my husband alhamdulilah.  This was my 1st Hajj alhamdulilah and I hope insha Allah to be able to make it again with this group insha Allah. My husband had made hajj before but had said this group was masha Allah by far a group he would go with again if Allah makes it possible to come back.  The Brothers and Sister that were there to help and keep things running smoothly from Al-Manasik were amazing masha Allah. They really put there hearts into everything they did for us and my Allah bless them for there efforts. My husband said that the brothers were always there and ready to help in anyway they could.  I told him the sisters were the same.  The sister that stands out the most to me was Umm Ahmed.  She was always checking on the sisters and I don't think she ever was able to sit for more than a couple of minutes at a time but she always had a smile on her face.  She was truly a blessing to have with the group. All the sisters that were there were very helpful and caring.  I remember at the apartments the sisters would come around all the time to clean the bathrooms and rooms.  Me and my roommates were amazed at how clean everything was considering how many sisters were using the bathrooms and common areas. 
 
Everyone you had working to make our hajj truly a trip of a lifetime went above and beyond what was expected of them.  From the tours, lectures, meals, accommodations, transportation, Q&A, Eid entertainment,and just being there when we needed something, and of course Hajj and umerah, it was alhamdulilah amazing.  This was Alhamdulilah an amazing Hajj and truly was the trip of my life. 
 
Please let the brothers and sister that took care of us, by serving food, cleaning, and keeping everything running smooth, know that they were truly appreciated and they are in our duas.  They deserve all you give them and more for the time and effort they put into making your group so great Alhamdulilah!
 
This is just a letter to say Jazak Allah Kair for making my first Hajj so special to me.  Insha Allah I will be able to come back with this group soon insha Allah.  And we are putting your name out to all in our community of Ann Arbor, Mi and vicinity.  Insha Allah you will have a lot from this area next year and the coming years. May Allah reward you all, for all you have done for me, my husband and all the others who made Hajj this year.  Insha Allah it will be excepted from us all. 
 
Jazak Allah Kairan

There are always room for improvement but overall job well done. Jazakum Allah Khairan

Nooreen Jilani (HAJJ 2007) :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Assalamalaikum,
Congratulations on successful completion of the 2007 Hajj groups management.I & my husband Naseem are extremely grateful to you both & all members of Almanasik management who organized the Hajj program & who were with us there during the Hajj Days. We find your management very competent as far as fulfilling the promises. We think that the service & organization of Program 2 which we had was beyond expectations & was comparable to any big group like Dar el Salam. The wide variety & huge quantities of healthy food & beverages supply through out the trip kept the Hajji's well nourished to perform the rituals energetically. Good management of Alamansik's privately owned buses from the Almanasik residential building & even from Mina made it possible for the Hajji's to perform daily prayers In Haram & to perform Tawaf-e-Ziarah on time (very peacefully on 11th just after midnight even before other groups could make it). Hotels provided in the package as promised were within the premises of Haram (2-3 minute walk) both in Mecca & Medina with amazing variety of food. Even on 10th & 12th Dhul Hijjah & later we had a home in Mecca (The Residential Units), to go there take showers rest & wait after Hajj rather than sitting on some airport waiting for plane or buses. Compared with other people In Arafat & Mudalifah also we were very comfortable as were directed to fold & carry our sleeping mattresses in buses. On top of all things the presence of a well known & very learned scholar Sheikh Mohammad Alsharif (Madina University Scholar &  Leader of Almaghrib organization) was the best thing that we were blessed with. We are thankful to him for providing such a good guidance on our first Hajj & accompanying us atleast once on almost all rituals. We did not face any difficulty & were really surprised how it can be so smooth. May Allah Accept it & grant all of us forgiveness from our sins. It was a memorable trip for us.
Wasalam

Shahul Hameed (HAJJ 2007) :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Dear Brothers,
Assalamu Alaikum. This is Shahul Hameed from Seattle. Myself and my wife travelled with Almanasik this year for Hajj. Alhamthu lillah, it was a great journey and with our hearts are filled with sweet Hajj memories. Alhamthu lillah, you borthers did a wonderful job. Almanasik brothers tried to make every part of Hajj journey easy for all pilgrims. May Allah reward you all for the effort. This is a never lasting memory in our life. We have zero negative thing to talk about. Alhamthu lillah, we are Thankful to Allah's guidance to go for Hajj and guidance to choose Almanasik. May Allah accept our hajj and bless you all here and hereafter for the efforts.

I want to pass special Thanks to Brother Mohammed Alshareef. Alhamthu lillah, we are impressed with his knowledge and advise. His Hajj advises especially Dua preperation for Arafat day was useful. I could have not done 4 hrs of Dua without Sheik's advise. He and other Shieks talked about the right thing during every good or difficult situation.
We make Dua to Allah to take us back to Hajj with Almanasik again with the guidance of Sheik Mohammed Alsharif.

Jazak Allah Khiran

Kal (Khaldoun) Lambaz (HAJJ 2006) :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Dear brother Farid,
I want to express my gratitude to you and Almanasik for a job well done. The hajj trip was wonderful, I wish I can do it again very soon. I know most of the issues that we encountered are beyond your control. I was most impressed by you, you made sure that all are in KSA then you came and made sure that all are out of KSA then you left. It is indeed a pleasure and an honor to have known you. May Allah bless you.

Kamran (HAJJ 2006) :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I hope you and your family are doing well by the Grace of Allah (swt). I just wanted to say that I had the very best Hajj this year with your group and may Allah reward you for all the tireless hardwork that you did to get us to Hajj and dealt with everything with utmost patience. I also wanted to thank you especially with the way you accommodated us with on the way back with a new ticket and a stay at the Sheraton hotel overnight in Frankfurt. I was blown away by your generosity and wanted to especially thank Br Nadir (on the way back to US) and Br Ahmed (on the way to Saudi) for being with us.

Mohamed sheikh & Sulega Abukar (HAJJ 2006) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Brother Farid and Al-Manasik hero's, May Allah blesses you all and keeps the Muslim hearts enlightened. I and a group of 4 from Seattle, Washington chose Al-Manasik for two reasons. You (brother Farid) were honest and straightforward in you dealings.
Second : Price ‘’’’’’’’. Believe me I did shop around. This Hajj was my 3rd and the best Hajj I ever done, I know Hajj is not easy thing to perform, but when you have a delicate group like Almansik  they make easy to perform.
You didn't realize how easy or how organized Almanasik was until you spoke with others who went with different groups. They had some horror stories to tell. Some went without food, accommodation, transportation; others were dropped of in the middle of the city others were left in Arafat with no food and have to walk Musdalifa to Mina with no direction of where to go. Over all Almanasik did the best of my eyes and other you have asked other group like Azzazi group and so on… We'll recommend you next year Insh Allah for anyone who wants to go.

Tariq & Khalida Rafeeqi (HAJJ 2006) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Farid, Assalam-O-Alaikum
Came back from Hajj and got busy. I wanted to write to you, but it took some time.
Farid, we had a great spiritual experience during our Hajj in Dec 2006. While some minor problems do happen with everyone (and these experiences are test from Allah as we see it), the overall experience with Al Manasik was greatly satisfying, and if we go again we will again choose Almanasik Insha-Allah. Three aspects we cared for and we received from your group: 1) Honesty. You are a forthright and honest person and will tell you as it is. I admire this trait, and I will ask you to keep it up. Once you said something I knew that it will happen as you said, else you would not have committed; 2) Fulfilling all Manasiks. We wanted to do our Hajj by fulfilling all Sunnahs, Wajibs and Fards. Your group did not try to cut corners to save time or money. I am satisfied that we were, By Allah’s Grace, able to meet all obligations, Wajibs and Sunnah of our Hajj. Definitely we could have done more, but we are very satisfied that we completed our Hajj rituals and gained a lot of spiritual energy; 3) Flexibility. We wanted to have a flexible program so we could do our own worship and supplications on our own schedule. We were able to achieve this aspect very easily and we used our time very effectively without any forced programs from your group. The icing on the cake with your group was the scholar you invited. I had gained a lot of knowledge from Dr. Salah Soltan. He is a great communicator and is a source of good practical knowledge. We are already implementing few things that he advised, like reading Surah Mulk daily. May Allah Bless you, your team in US, and your team in Saudi Arabia. I know for you it is not an easy job, but the reward you will receive from Allah will erase all difficulties you face in putting long hours in handling each minute detail of this blessed journey for so many people.  Please say our Salam to all your team members; May Allah Bless each of them in this world and in The Hereafter. You are free to give my cell phone number to anybody who would like to call me asking for my feedback.

Humera Iftikhar & Khwaja N Hasan (HAJJ 2006) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
As-Salamu Aleikum brother Fareed:
How are you? I hope everything is well. We wanted to extent our thanks and appreciation to AlManasik and all its affiliates. Brothers who helped us during this obligatory journey may Allah give them reward in this world and the hereafter. Accommodation was excellent in every place we visited whether it was Mecca, Medina, Mina or Arafat. I can list the good and bad, ups and down but the bottom line is we were able to perform the Hajj according to sunna of our beloved prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him). Over all Almanasik did a great job accommodating all the brothers and sisters during Hajj. Keep up the good work.

Assalaamu 'Alaikum Wa RahmatAllaahi Wa Barakaatuh,
How are you? InshaaAllah all is well. I have been meaning to email you since we got back, but SubhanAllah we've been really busy. I wanted to say JazakAllah Khairun for a great Hajj. While we were there we kept saying how Hajj was easy Alhumdulilah, and we didn't realize how easy or how organized Almanasik was until we came back and spoke with others who went with different groups. They had some horror stories to tell. Some went 17 hours without food, others were dropped of in the middle of the city with no direction of where to go and got lost for hours. So again, JazakAllah for doing your best with us, May Allah (SWT) reward your efforts. We'll recommend you next year InshAllah for anyone who wants to go.

Dear Farid, and almanasik brothers. I would like to thank you and your group for the excellent service provided during our trip to hajj . The food and the hotels were very good, and very close to the mosque in Mecca and Medina. I believe that almanasik is the best hajj groups to choose from.

Amy Chiang & Muhammad Riaz (HAJJ 2005) :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
My husband and I went on Hajj with your group last year. Alhamdulilah it was the best experience in my entire life. The accomadations were excellent. While nothing can be perfect, the service received was beyond my expectations. I hope inshallah that Allah (swt) rewards your entire organization for all the hard work. I would recommend your group to anyone and indeed if Allah (swt) invites me back to His house again I would choose your group. Speaking of which....do you still provide services for umrah? The last time I looked on your site there was a package from umrah, however, now I do not see one. Please let me know if you do, inshallah my husband and I would like to plan to make umrah.

May peace and blessing be upon Prophet Muhammad, his family and his companions.
What I witnessed from Al-Manasik:

First to start let me state that perfection is only for Allah and therefore the creation can only try and imitate this attribute but will never attain it. So while I don’t see Al-Manasik as being perfect here is my account of why I believe they are one of the best Hajj groups to choose from... READ MORE
