  “And the Camels and Cattle We have Appointed for you as among the Symbols of ALLAH; for you therein is Good. So mention the name of ALLAH upon them when lined up [for sacrifice]; and when they are [lifeless] on their sides, then Eat from them and Feed the Needy and the Beggar. Thus have We subjected them to you that you may be Grateful.” (Al-Quran) The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “It is the Sunnah of Your FATHER HAZRAT IBRAHIM (AS). For every Hair of the Qurbani you Receive a Reward from ALLAH (swt).” (Trimidhi) Qurbani, meaning Sacrifice, is an Integral part of the Festival of EID UL ADHA for Muslims around the World. In addition, this act is also known as the Sunnah of HAZRAT IBRAHIM (AS). When asked about the origin of EID UL ADHA, Prophet  HAZRAT   MUHAMMED (Peace Be Upon Him)  is reported to have said, “ It is a tradition that has come down to us from Prophet HAZRAT IBRAHIM (AS) .” The Feast of Sacrifice dates from the historic event almost 4000 years back from now when Prophet HAZRAT IBR

Layover and Minimum Connecting Time (MCT)

Image
MCT – Minimum Connecting Time… Airlines are supposed to allow a specific amount of time between connecting flights. The minimum connection time varies by Airport, Type of Connection and Airline (Domestic to Domestic or Domestic to International or International to International or International to Domestic). Each Airport has its own list of minimum connection times. If you book connecting flights on the same Airline the reservation system is supposed to use this minimum connection time information to determine how much time you will have to change Aircrafts. This seems like a simple process, but the passenger who has run through the situation can only understand the scenario. Usually once a person or a group are planning a trip that involves connecting flights, they may wish to choose a connecting flight that is different from the one your Airline's Computerised Reservation System (CRS) recommends. There are many factors that can affect how much time you have to change planes, and

Traffic Conference Areas

Traffic Conference Areas Geographically the world is divided into four parts that are the Western hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, and Northern Hemisphere. The Equator is the imaginary line that passes horizontally and divides the earth equally, Similarly prime meridian is the line that passes vertically and divides the earth equally. The area which is to the south of Equator is termed as Southern Hemisphere and to the north of the equator is termed as Northern Hemisphere. Similarly, the countries or area which lies to the west of the prime meridian is called Western Hemisphere and to the east of the prime meridian is called Eastern Hemisphere. However, if this rule followed for Air travel it will cause confusion as the prime meridian which passes through London passes through many countries making it difficult to follow and the same applies to equator as well. Hence to negate this issue IATA has divided the globe into the Western hemisphere comprising only the Amer
