Aslaamu alaykum, I was just wondering, if you had the choice to live in either Mecca or Medina which one would you pick? :p

I wanna live in Medina all the dates hehe :)
 
hmm mecca is tempting, praying right infront of the kab'a every day and hearing the adhaan. But Medina also praying in the prophets masjid every day hmm
 
:sl:

If you read one of bro Mikayeels thread it states Mecca(which is the improper spelling) means house of wine,say Makkah.

I would live in Makkah because:
• Prophet was born there
•Islam started there
•The kaabah is there.
•And it is an lovely place overall.

But I wouldnt refuse an air ticket to Medinah if thats on your mind:D

:sl:
 
ok makkah then :) learn somethin new every day,
hmm good points for living in makkah ow well if I get to live in either I'd be happy.
 
:sl:

There's plenty of dates in Makkah too. :p

Hard choice to make really. I've always wanted to live in Madeenah though...
 
Maybe you could post a poll?

I haven't been to either. But, I think to live, I'd like to live in Medina. I imagine it to have an atmosphere of calmness and scholarly endeavours. :)

After I've been to both, InshAllah, I'll let you know.

makkah at first then retire and die in madinah
 
I would go for Madinah. I've been to Makkah and my friend lived in both a long time. Medina has more knowledge and it's protected by God, he said you can actually feel it. Its people are kinder.
 
:sl:

Madina.
I've been to both of them only once and that was during Hajj. And like people say I found Madina more calm and tranquil. In addition to that maybe two or three umrahs in a month. :thumbs_up:D:statisfie
 
Yes. Only problem is that as some say, especially for Asians and Arabs, it is very hard to get a residency and work permit there in Saudi. A cheeky friend said "It's easier to go to paradise than it is to go to Saudi!!" :D
 
lol yeah every 1 I speak to always tell me how lovely and hospitital the people are in Medina, it's actually known for it's hospitality and kind people now I think.
