<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Assalaamu Alaykum </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Duahs all is well Insha Allāh. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since following Halaal Travels, I have taken a keen interest in travelling. As a student who is getting married at the end of this year, funding for travelling is quite limited. Thankfully Halaal travels have created a budget friendly post when travelling throughout Cape Town which is where I reside. This helps me tremendously when planning my holiday, days. The posts also gave me some insight on where I would prefer to travel to and where not. Insha Allah when I do start working and earn enough money, this page will definitely come in handy. Shukran for all you do. May Allah always protect you and grant this page to grow from strength to strength. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Regards, </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hajiera </span></p>

Nooreen Alli 

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I usually plan my own holidays and it’s very time consuming and exhausting to research all the details of hotels,food,itineraries etc.Your platform has made it so easy and I like staying at places recommended by people instead of booking and hoping for the best.It’s also nice to hear peoples experiences of travel and halaal food recommendations and even if we not planning a trip we can learn through other people’s experiences. Keep up the good work and wish you all the best.</span></p>
