DJ Khaled Gets Emotional Being In Mecca For The First Time

It is every Muslim’s dream to see be in Mecca and see the Kaabah with their own pair of eyes. Those performing the pilgrimage, either Hajj or Umrah, will get the chance to see the holy Kaabah.

Kaabah is located in Mecca and is the main direction, qibla, for Muslims to perform their prayers. Before Kaabah was built, Muslims face Jerusalem to perform their prayers.

In a recent post on DJ Khaled’s Instagram, he was in Mecca to perform umrah alongside the American former professional boxer, Mike Tyson.

Upon arriving at Mecca, DJ Khaled could not hide his emotion as the video captured him tearing up. It was indeed the tears of joy. He revealed that he had always dreamt of going to Mecca to pray. He wanted to thank Allah for everything.

“I prayed for the world for more love, more life, more peace, more joy, more happiness, more health and protection for all of us! God is the Greatest!

DJ Khaled was also thankful to be doing the umrah with his friend, Tyson. 

The American DJ, record executive, record producer, and rapper is raised as a Muslim. Meanwhile, Tyson reportedly converted to Islam while he was in jail. He mentioned in an interview that he was moved when reading a book on Islam and decided to become a Muslim.
