Hajj and Medina (F) What better way to start a life together for two muslimeen than to visit the kabba and the Prophet (saws)?

1.jpg

But in terms of romance, I would say Dubai. If money was no object, a week spent in Burj al Arab

al-burj-arab.jpgBurj.Al.Arab.Pattern.jpg

Or Turkey, because my husband and I are both history buffs and Turkey has a ton of history.

I would love to go hajj as a honeymoon, hit it right on the dot. I hope that once Yassine gets here and when we get through the process and he can travel we will do this. Inshallah. I wonder most of how sex would be after the hajj, you can not have it during however once it is over. I would think that it would really be a spritaul event. (I hope this is not bad to say this.)

LOL, I talked to my husband last night about where he would go on a honeymoon. He said Spain and Turkey, because of the history. I said, but what about hajj, and he's like :blink: Honeymoon is for romance, and you can't really have romance on hajj :lol: Looking like I'll be going on my hajj honeymoon by myself.

I want a honeymoon. :blush: I mean we technically had one I guess but when I think of honeymoon I think beach, no phones, no computers, not having to cook at all, room service, etc. Basically I think Sandals. Is there a Sandals resort in the middle east? :innocent:

I think our first trip will be to a Sandals resort once he gets here.

As of right now, we are considering our trip to Morocco "our honeymoon." We're leaving on our 1 year muslim wedding anniversary so what better way than to spend our honeymoon with his family!

I think it would be wonderful I do not understand how some people like to separate the two. Religion is a big party of our lives, it even dictates sex so I am not sure why it would be a bad thing. I know that during the Hajj it should be no intercourse however afterwards which I believe it covers 5 days should be free to do what you want. I think it would bring the couple together and remind you of the common bond that we share (along with about a billion other people). I think it is funny but I love it when my fiance and talk about the sunnah and some other issues that effect us with your lives. Along with holding my hands. But you know men.

After Ibrahim and I married at the courthouse, we went to the Kabob house and ate lots of good food. :)

Then we came home and played with La Princessa, watched a boring azz movie, The Postman.

Now when he gets back here, the ENTIRE first year will be our honeymoon!

I'd vote for someplace that isn't like here nor Morocco. I would pick Caneel Bay on St. John Virgin Islands. Knowing him, though, he'd pick Egypt, since he really wants to go there more than anything.

Though he does owe me a trip to Spain since I cut out my Spain trip last November and went to Morocco since I had hopelessly fallen in love with him.. :D
