Considering a Move to Saudi Arabia: Seeking Your Insights

As-salamu alaykum everyone! I've decided, insha'Allah, to move from the US to Saudi Arabia. The idea sparked after my Umrah trip, especially during a week in Madinah-it brought me a peace I've never felt before in my life. As a US passport holder, I plan to go on a tourist or student visa initially, insha'Allah, and figure things out step by step. To make this happen, I'm working hard: - At my day job as a pharmacy assistant - Doing freelance web design on the side - Creating online content - Planning to launch an online shop for modest Islamic clothing when I have spare time - Delivering food for extra income I believe this journey is worth every effort. I'd love to hear your thoughts: If you've already made Hijrah, would you recommend it? What advice do you have? And if you're thinking about it, what's holding you back or motivating you? Jazakum Allahu khayran for sharing!

MashaAllah, may Allah make it easy for you. I made hijrah from the UK to Riyadh two years ago. Best decision ever. The peace is real, brother.

Thinking about it too but visa process seems long from where I am. And family back home, you know?

That feeling in Madinah... I get it. Visited last year and haven't been the same since. If you can make it work, go for it.

Student visa is a good start. Learn Arabic if you haven't already - makes everything easier.

Loving the hustle! Deliver food by day, build dreams by night. Respect.
