When Dr Abdallah Hernandez found Islam in 1990, he felt so fortunate with Allah’s guidance that the promised Him he will go to hajj on horseback.
30 years later, he established this project with a close friend to fulfil his promised and to replicate the typical hajj journey of the Andalusians more than 500 years since the last recorded hajj journey from Spain.
For this aim, a group of Spanish Muslims intend to go from South Spain to Makkah, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, using specialised Arabian endurance horses trained for a journey of this calibre. These horses are from a selection of Arabian endurance horses bred by a reputable Pure Arabian stud farm based in Spain, called La Cañada del Robledo (Cadiz, Spain).
We ask Allah to make this project possible by His Favour and Generosity. Amin.
