In the real life of Islam, Muslims pray to Allah by His described messages. These messages are brought to people on this world by His Prophets. In different times he has sent different prophets with specific messages and each prophet preached Allah's message as per His orders. Each prophet was bestowed with a nation and specific task which they have to ensure on that nation.
In this history of prophets, last prophet by Allah is Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). He was sent on the earth of Makkah and was given the task of Preaching Islam. Holy Prophet was given a complete book for guidance of people of this world. This holy book is Quran. Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) received those messages and delivered to people of Makkah so they can live their lives according to the orders of Allah. He himself set examples in every field of life for Muslims to follow.
Apart from all earlier religions, Allah said in Quran Islam is the best religion on this world and he has assigned this religion to the Umah of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). According to Islam Muslims have been ordered to pray Allah Give Zakat on their earnings and perform Hajj. Along with this Muslims are also bound to keep fast so they can better know the hard line livings of Poor people of this world who could not even afford bread and butter for single time in each day.
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) preached the message of Allah for 23 years and then He left this world after setting great examples of how to lead life as per sayings of Allah. His life is the real guideline for Muslims in every field of life to live in a better way and get secured in eternal life after death. Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) soul is resting in Madina where every Muslim must visit while he goes for hajj. Even traveling companies make special umrah packages to make it easy for Muslims to present their attendance infront of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W).
Difficult times come and go on every one in this world. But our Islam teaches us to be consistent on sayings of Allah so we have not to suffer any difficulties of life. Islam is a religion of peace which teaches us how to live with our neighbors and especially with the people of other religions. Best of this is done five times a day in the mosques and each year at the time of hajj in Makkah. This is purely a lesson of unity for the people of this world to consolidate oneness of Allah.
To be on right path and make our beliefs stronger we must perform hajj. In recent times special hajj packages by companies are being offered for Muslims all over the world. In addition if you like you can go for umrah only on seasonal and especially Ramadan umrah packages by these companies.
