“May Allah Grant Health” Cancer Patient Abdiaziz Aden Prays For Holy Healing As He Kisses The House Of God At Islam’s MOST Sacred Mosque (Photos)

All Muslims are required to make pilgrimage to Mecca at least once during their lifetime. And going to Mecca to pray was Abdiaziz Aden’s death wish.

Am told pilgrimage to Mecca is the fifth pillar of Islam and a religious duty that all Muslims should undertake if they are able, at least once in their lives.

Cancer patient Abdiaziz Aden who is from Korogocho slums, had no means of getting to Mecca. After doctors in India told him he had only three months to live, Aden had only one wish; to go to Mecca to pray.

Kenyans of all religious backgrounds united and raised money to facilitate Aden to make a pilgrimage to Mecca to fulfill the religious rite.

Aden arrived in Mecca a few days ago and he was able to pray at Al Kaaba mosque, the most sacred mosque for Islamic faithful.

Millions of pilgrims usually make their way to Al Kaaba mosque during Hajj to pray, the mosque is considered the “House of Allah”.

“May Allah grant Shifaa (health)” Aden wrote on social media upon praying in Al Kaaba mosque.
