Frequently Asked Questions
DO I NEED TO BUY A DOMESTIC CONNECTION TICKET? WHICH AIRPORTS CAN I DEPART FROM?
The package price includes departure from the above mentioned major airports. However, you may leave from any departure city from which Dar El Salam can issue a ticket.
If you do not live in a departure city from which the selected airline flies, then you must purchase the domestic ticket for an extra fee from your home city to the departure city of your choice. Please contact Dar El Salam for more details.
WHAT IF I CHANGE MY MIND AFTER I HAVE PAID?
All deposits are non-refundable. Deposits are calculated by each person traveling in your family. Cancellation of deposits will also be by person. Anyone that wishes to change their travel plans after paying their deposits will not be able to receive a cash refund. However, the airline may offer a credit equivalent to the deposit for future flights on that airline within 12 months.
ARE THERE ANY DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE TO ALMAGHRIB STUDENTS?
Unfortunately, there are no additional discounts. We have tried to provide the best balance in terms of price, logistics and comfort for all travelers. Of course, you should expect no less than an excellent program from AlMaghrib Institute.
WHAT WILL BE THE ROLE OF ALMAGHRIB INSTITUTE INSTRUCTORS & INVOLVEMENT WITH THE GROUP?
All the instructors will be in charge of all religious affairs for the group. They will accompany the group and will also provide regular lectures and training about Umrah. Additionally, there will be plenty of time to meet with them during the trip. Group leaders will handle administrative issues while travel and logistical issues will be handled through Dar El Salam Travels.
HOW IS UMRAH DIFFERENT FROM HAJJ?
Umrah training and workshops will be provided by AlMaghrib Institute before and during the trip. Hajj has many different rituals and can only be made during a specific time of the year. Umrah can be performed anytime of the year and only takes a few hours.
CAN I ADD ON OTHER PLACES TO VISIT BEFORE AFTER THE UMRAH?
Yes. However, there may be additional fees. Please contact Dar El Salam Travels for more details.
ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED TO GO FOR UMRAH?
From a fiqh perspective, yes they are allowed to go. However, please contact Dar El Salam to make travel reservations and all other details. Also, please use your best judgment on traveling and performing Umrah with infants and small children.
WHEN WILL THE COMPLETE BLESSED VOYAGE ITINERARY BECOME AVAILABLE?
We will release it as soon as possible and before the departure
CAN A NON-MARRIED WOMAN, OR ONE THAT IS NOT TRAVELLING WITH A MALE RELATIVE, MAKE UMRAH?
Please contact Dar El Salam for more information.
