King Abdullah & Queen Rania Current Events 25: September 14, 2007-January 10, 2008

Perhaps we don´t see pictures of her during Hajj because was a private visit. This´s her second Hajj.

 

[Little_star]

Well it was reported that she went alongwith Prince Hamzah and Princess Noor.

 

[Mademoiselle Lilo]

yes it's pity we didn't see any photo from her trip to makka,we used to see some from her Omra...let's hope someone there took a photo of here and we can see it soon QRania can't go there without being noticed
anyway it's nice to see QRania back to her duties.

 

[Little_star]

To be honest I would sincerely doubt that anybody performing Hajj would be interested in taking her photograph.

I don't think there were photos from the first time she performed Hajj either.

 

[Mademoiselle Lilo]

i mean someone who have his phone with camera maybe, as you know one of the gaol of hajj is meeting other muslims poeole around the world and i think QRania is important person to meet,this ramadan my uncle meet prince moulay rachid in omra (not really meeting he saw him)and took photos of him with his phone it doesn't mean he is intersted in moulay rachid more than his omra.

 

[Little_star]

Personally speaking I think the whole point of performing Hajj and Umrah is to concentrate on the events involved, not on "who" may be around you.

Moreover for many people it is a once in a lifetime experience so they will be likely to have other things on their mind.

I'm thinking that the others who were making the Hajj were not there to see the Queen, but were there for themselves, just as she was. I'm not Muslim, but I do know that many people only get to make it once in their life if they are able.

 

[Mademoiselle Lilo]

yes you're right acdc1 and Little_star me too as muslim i belive Hajj is very big and important experience for muslims and all those poeple are there for themselve first and not for taking photos of QRania,i am not saying anything against that,i just said a little photo will not Spoils their Hajj and that QRania is not a kind of personn we can not notice her presence easely that's all.

 

[jroneida]

I think it says a lot of the quality of people around her that we aren't seeing cell phone pictures of her during Hajj. It really grosses me out when people feel it's acceptablt to intrude on a persons privacy and peace just because that famous person is eyeshot. Let people pray in peace.

Were there pictures posted from the Bulgarian president's visit? I found a pic a few days ago that says it was from that visit, but it's the only one I can find. I haven't quite figured out how to smoothly go through Petra's photo archives

These are the photos of Bulgarian President's visit which I found in Petra News Agency on December 3, 2007. I am confused too about finding pictures in Petra site as it has changed. The photos:

Thanks for all the answers about Hajj. It sounds to me to be a very strong mental experience for every Muslim, I appreciate very much that QR deals with religious matters and duties in this way, she gives the good example to everybody Muslim or not.
