Here are six great apps you should get for your next Hajj or Umrah trip
1. Nusuk This one has to go first! It is the one we are all thinking about, after all. There is one application named Nusuk, which is a guide to planning your Umrah journey. It was initially designed for the convenience of the pilgrims when they wished to book a spot and offer supplication in their travels and pray in the Riyadhul Jannah area in Masjid Nabawi. Now, it is primarily used to book a spot and pray herein at the Riyadhul Jannah, in Masjid Nabawi, where prophetic traditions have referred to that area as one from the gardens of paradise. No wonder so many people would like to pray there. The usage of Nusuk is pretty simple. You can easily download it on your iPhone or Android device and can easily start using it with quick registration.
