Alhumdolilah we performed our hajj this year in 2019 and went with Sada e Madina. Our overall experience was very good and we are pleased with the services SM and their team has provided to the hujjaj. Whatever was in their control they managed it very well. There is always room for improvement and feedback was provided to the management on those areas while we were still in Saudi. JazakaAllah for all the efforts you have put in place to make our hajj stress free.
This allowed us to concentrate solely on our Ibaadah and make best use of out time in the holy land. May Allah reward you with best of His blessings. Keep doing the good work!

Had an amazing time Alhamdulillah. The group was very well organised, service was exceptional and food choice was brilliant. The hotels were basic but it was expected. Locations were good and not much waiting around for lifts especially in comparison to the experience some people we know had in certain 5 star hotels. It took us less time to get to the masjid even though others were much closer. Wanted a clean hotel, insect free, decent food and decent location and we believe we got that Alhamdulillah.
Overall very happy with Sada e Madina. Would definitely recommend them to others. Special mention to Ismail Bhai Simjee for his communication throughout. Very thorough, no sugar coating and always available. Also usama for his behind the scenes organisation, and also Sheikh Mansur for his khidmat.(Especially during the 5 days of Hajj). The people we had in the group were amazing too and made this journey that extra bit special. Will not ever forget this experience. Jzk to all that made this journey unforgettable.

We were lucky enough to go to hajj this year. We chose sada e madina as they were recommended to us by a friend. The overall experience was very good. The management team offered a lot of support both before and during the trip. They held a seminar before travelling which was really informative and gave everyone goody bags with a side bag, rucksack, trolley bag, sun umbrella and ihram for men and a scarf for women.
We were promised two meals per day but were given three. The quality of food was really good especially the chicken biryani. Soft drinks and tea and coffee were provided at meal times. The only disappointment was the hotel in Mecca (Loulouh Hotel). The rooms were really small and some rooms had a bad smell. Some bed sheets were dirty on arrival and generally the hotel is in desperate need of renovation.
I would have given 5 stars if it wasnt for this hotel. I would happily travel with sada e madina again providing they use a different hotel in mecca. Jazakallah to the whole team for all their efforts.

Hajj 2019, Alhumdullilah what an amazing experience. I have nothing but positive words to describe this group. I will begin with the Management team, what an absolute fantastic bunch of individuals that have all the characteristics that a management team member will have, strong personalities, calm, great communicators, honest, fantastic decision making in critical/ decisive situations, understanding, empathetic and humble.
If I have to single out any individual member of the management team it will have to be Brother Usama, I would describe him as the "glue" & "brains" behind all operations. Overall Sada E Medina provided a Class Hajj Service from start to finish, before Hajj, the wassap group assisted a lot in regards to preparations & meeting expectations. The Hajj seminar was fantastically organised & presented, along with all the goodies the group provided. Whilst during Hajj, the availability, advice given during pre & post hajj days were impressive, from facilities provided in Mina, Arafat & Muzdalifah to hotel facilities in Makkah & Medina, advice on cargo services, pharmacies, laundry, general geographical advice in Makkah & Medina were very useful. Things that impressed me the most was the logistics, communication & organisation provided from the group whilst in Makkah & Medina were outstanding.
This was the first time visiting Makkah & Medina for me & my wife, Firstly I thank our Almighty Allah for making our Hajj Journey a fantastic one, secondly I have to thank everyone associated with Sada E Medina for their fantastic efforts. The memories, spiritual highs & the purification of ones heart & soul whilst on this journey along with the services provided my Osama & his team will remain forever.
I pray to our Almighty Allah, that he showers his blessings upon every single member of the Sada E Medina group, he grants them all long & healthy lives & enables these amazing individuals to continue to do the fantastic work on a yearly basis to fellow Muslims going for Hajj & Umrah, AMEEN.

Alhamdulillah we had the opportunity to go for the Hajj pilgrimage with Sada-e-Madinah this year. The group was very organized from the moment we booked, with ATOL certificates and other paperwork being given in a timely manner. The hotel in Makkah was very basic but a very short walking distance from the Haram Sharif. The process of transferring from Makkah to Mina was smoothly handled, with the organization from the management being evident.
The Qurbani which was done on the 10th Zul Hijjah, was personally overseen by a member of the management team, this is one of the main aspects of the Hajj pilgrimage, and many groups outsource this responsibility. Although, there had been a delay of around 12 hours due to unforeseen circumstances this year, we are grateful to the group for personally taking the responsibility to oversee the Qurbani, and ensure it has been completed, before anyone releases themselves from the state of Ihram.
The only downside to the group was that I felt that the management had essentially disappeared on the 11th Zul Hijjah, leaving Hujjaj confused as to what the group stoning times were. The situation was further exasperated due to the rain. The transfer from Makkah to Madinah was very smooth, the organization was again evident. The Hotel in Madinah was of a higher standard than described.
The walk to the Haram was no longer than 3-4 minutes. One additional benefit is that the group take a British Group Doctor with them. The Doctor was available throughout the day, giving invaluable advice and ensuring any medical conditions were managed before they progressed. Clinics are available in all locations, however the queues can be very long, and there can be a language barrier.
The group doctor was indispensable and I would personally thank Dr Afridi for his service. Overall, the group is very well organized and it is clear the group is very experienced at running Hajj tours. The food was freshly made and was varied throughout the journey. The group provide a cooked breakfast, as well as lunch and an evening meal. I would definitely travel with Sada-E-Madinah again. May Allah reward the team and accept all their efforts.

Me and my husband went for hajj this year 2018 with Sada E Madina. Alhamdulillah from the da we booked till we came back to UK everything was perfect. Starting with the Seminar in Manchester we got to meet the management team and other hujjaj that were going in our group. The venue, the food and information given on hajj Was of high standard. The welcoming of Us at hotel in makkah was also great with gifts.
The hotel was close to Haram shareef 2 min walk. The hotel makkah and was like 3-4 * star jazakallah to the staff they were so helpful. The hotel in madina was also 3-4* Food was delicious too. We had full board meals even on the 5 days of hajj. jazakallah to Sadiq bhai and his team for all the effort and hard work they did for providing meals on time. Jazakallah to uncle munir for all the work he did considering he wasn't well, may Allah grant him shifaa and ease all his pain and suffering in shaa Allah. (Aameen ) Jazakallah to uncle ismail for booking us in since the day we booked till we got back home all the information he gave and looking after us there ensuring we had everything we needed. Jazakallah to brother mansoor for being busy all day sorting out our qurbani and looking after us and asking if we needed anything any time. Jazakallah to maulana Adam for he's ziyarat tours, he's speeches, his duas and all the information he gave while we were in Hajj may Allah accept all his efforts in shaa Allah (Aameen ) Jazakallah to brother usamah for doing all the running around for the whole group from day one from bookings to seminar, hotel room sorting, food, transport in makkah and madina and for the 5 days.and for everything else that we needed till we got home.
Can't describe any more words to say for the amazing Hajj we have had with this group. I would recommend this group to friends and family and would definitely use this group again in the future for Hajj and umrah in shaa Allah. Jazakallah once again to all management team. May Allah accept ourHajj and make it Hajj mabroor in shaa Allah (Aameen ).

Alhamdulillah, an amazing journey by the Grace of Allah swt. Excellent companionship and very well organised. From the beginning to the end we were well looked after. Hafis Mansoor and Hafis Munir are excellent leaders and we had immense help from Usaamah, Ismail, Sh. Adam and others. There were different flights for the different packages (2 week, 3 week etc) but each one of them was meticulously planned and all of us were really looked after and accommodated.
Although there were many of us from various backgrounds, all were made to feel welcome. Hotels were decent and very close to both of the Harams, and we had access to our Makkah hotel throughout the days of Hajj. Three square meals per day (like home cooked) which was good because how many takeaways can you really eat? Food and drink in Arafat, Mina etc was plenty.
Lots of small details were taken care of which made our journey comfortable so that we could perform our duties with ease. There was enough Islamic guidance but not too overpowering which gave us the flexibility and freedom for each of us to perform the rituals in accordance to what we are used to. Shaikh Adam was always on hand alongside others. All in all - well organised, fantastic service, good value for money and would definitely recommend.

I have used Sada e Madina many times over the years, and they have in my experience always offered very competitive prices, but what stands out is the great customer service. I had such high esteem for them that I also organised for my elderly parents to go Hajj with them in 2014. Every step along the way from booking, attending seminars, customer service, providing information and meeting expectations, and to the journey itself was unbelievably smooth and without any hiccups.
The transport, hotels and the meals provided were very good and more than satisfactory. Their availability, friendliness and approachability meant when ever there was a slight issue or a concern it was dealt with swiftly. Alhamdulilah my parents were in good hands and I had peace of mind. To this day when they talk about their amazing experience it makes me so happy. Thank you to Sada e Madina for all their hard work. May Allah accept all their efforts and accept the hajj from every hujjaj.
