Land Travel
Enjoy the great outdoors, see the signs of Allah in nature, and take your time exploring off-the-track sites. Land travel (car, train, etc.) offers the greatest flexibility and opportunities to see more of the region. Always remember your intention of traveling is to see the signs of the Greatness of Allah that lies in the nature.....
Find a Mosque & Determine Prayer Times
When you're on the road, it may be difficult to determine the area's prayer times or locate a mosque. Do a bit of research before you leave! (And check about the rules for shortening and combining prayers while one is traveling.) Bring your compass along to determine the right direction of Qiblah. Never leave home without. Solat is the "Fardh" anywhere you are, what you are sick or healthy. Learn to do Solat when you are sick is highly advisable.
Halal Eating
For car travel and day trips, it's advisable to pack your own food from home. It's less expensive, and you know what you're eating. But if you desire or need to eat out, check these listings to make sure you're eating halal!
