The journey of a Libyan pilgrim, Amer Al Mahdi Mansour Al Gaddafi, to perform Hajj — the fifth pillar of Islam — has become a powerful tale of faith, determination, and what many are calling divine intervention.

Nasreen started with 100 Darood Sharif and now reads abundant azkar daily. Alhumdulillah, Now she spends close to three hours in dhikr. Would you like to build your dhikr habit too? It’s completely free — try the digital tasbih counter here:

Amer Al Mahdi Mansour Al Gaddafi’s unwavering resolve to reach the holy city of Mecca has inspired countless Muslims around the world.

Every year, millions set out for Hajj with hopes, dreams, and hearts full of faith. But for one young man from Libya, what started as a disappointment turned into a divine miracle that left everyone in awe.

Sometimes a short pause to remember Allah brings clarity and steadiness back into our day. These reflections are simple reminders from my own journey, written to help reconnect the heart with faith and purpose.

Amer had one intention: to perform Hajj for the sake of Allah. He was packed, prepared, and spiritually ready. But as he arrived at the airport, a delay at security caused him to miss his flight.

The officials at the airport told him bluntly, “Maybe Hajj isn’t written for you this year.”

But Amer, with unwavering trust in his Lord, calmly replied:

“My intention is for Hajj. If Allah wills, I will go.”

I’ve created some Islamic printables to support faith, learning, and productivity. You’ll find resources like the 99 Names of Allah coloring worksheets, a Haidh Journal for teenagers and free 40 Hadith compilations for easy study and review. I hope they benefit you, and Your support means a lot.

SubhanAllah, what happened next was nothing short of a sign from the heavens.

The very flight that Amer missed was forced to return due to unexpected mechanical issues. Still, the pilot refused to let Amer board, stating regulations and procedures.

So the plane took off again… but once again, it was forced to return. Something was clearly not right.

This time, the pilot — perhaps moved by something unseen — said:

“I won’t fly unless Amer is on board.”

Allahu Akbar. Amer boarded the flight. He made it to Makkah. He performed Hajj.

Because what is written for you will reach you — even if the whole world says no.

This story is a reminder to every heart that believes:

Intentions matter. Faith moves mountains. When Allah writes something for you, no force on Earth can stop it. What’s meant for you will never miss you.

Amer’s journey to Hajj is more than a travel tale — it’s a testimony of divine qadr, the power of intention, and the miracles that unfold when the heart trusts completely in Allah.
