You know what's even more amazing? You don't even need to physically do this act yourself. And yet by doing it, you will be undertaking an act that is something so great. Something so virtuous that - when you do it for a loved one who is terminally ill, or someone dear to you who has passed away - your one deed can give them great reward in the hereafter and put them forth in the best light on the Day of Judgment.

Imagine that a loved one entering the Gates of Jannah, because of your deed. That extra reward could be enough to tip the scales. What greater gift could you possibly give to someone who means so much to you? A gift that sounds impossible, right? But it is totally possible; even if this person did not perform Hajj in their lifetime. In fact, this gift is especially for someone who has missed Hajj in their lifetime. Just imagine that feeling they would have in the hereafter to receive the reward of Hajj. All of the burden of their sins; that weight completely lifted from their shoulders.

Yes! This is a gift that is completely possible to give (or even just the reward: that's the least we can do for our parents).

Of course, your parents are the greatest example of this. Throughout their lives, they struggled and did whatever they had to do for you, only because they loved you. But what if there is one thing they wanted from you in return? What if they desperately needed you to do something for them because they were unable to do it for themselves?

You would jump at the chance and do it without even thinking. In fact, if you were given a choice, you would never let your parents face the hereafter with a single debt owed to Allah (or to anyone for that matter).

In your daily duties as a Muslim, you wouldn't dare miss a fast in Ramadan. You wouldn't dare miss Friday prayers together in Jama'ah. And if you did, you would be filled with guilt and a deep sense of regret.

You can try your best, but you cannot imagine what it is really like: standing before Allah on the Day of Judgment, missing a pillar of your religion. A day so frightening, that even a mother would throw her child from her bosom. A day where you would be desperate for just one good deed - to keep you away from the hell-fire.

You would never wish this for yourself and you would certainly never wish this for a loved one. 

Every pilgrim we provide is a graduate from an Islamic institution, someone who lives in Makkah or Madinah to perform Hajj on behalf of your loved one. Each person is interviewed personally to ensure they meet our high standards here at Radiant Drops because there are no air fares and other costs associated with travelling for Hajj from your home. You spend just a fraction of the price of trying to undertake the task of Hajj Badal yourself. And once your Hajj Badal is complete, we will email you a certificate for you to keep.

We are here to take care of everything so you can rest assured knowing that your loved ones will have their debt of Hajj fulfilled In Sha Allah.

Allah (swt) says: "And (due) to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House - for whoever is able to find thereto a way. But whoever disbelieves - then indeed, Allah is free from need of the worlds." (3:97)

Failing to perform Hajj once in your lifetime when you are able to (without a valid excuse) is a major sin not to be taken lightly. If you missed Hajj without a valid reason, you would be missing a pillar of Islam. Many people are unaware of the gravity of this situation and risk never completing their Hajj as a result.

Radiant Drops provide an affordable solution for those who need Hajj Badal completed but are unable to finance their own Hajj trip on behalf of their loved one. Many of us have never been for Hajj ourselves or don't know where to start with this detailed and demanding act of Ibadah. With every Hajj Badal undertaken by graduates of Islamic institutes, such as in Makkah or Madinah, you can rest assured knowing that your Hajj Badal is in safe hands.

So many things raced through my mind. He had the means and could have performed Hajj many times. I remember scholars saying that it was a major sin to miss Hajj if you can afford it. He always said "In Sha' Allah" and "One day..." But that day never came. My heart was trembling at the thought of my dad being in his grave, answering for his life and being asked about his Hajj. What could I do? What could I give? What could I say or donate or do?

In that moment when I saw my dad in his funeral shroud, I wanted to give everything I could for my dad to have done Hajj. I turned immediately to my uncle by my side and asked him about it. "Hajj Badal" he said. Pressed against my ear, while pinching my dad's white shroud between his fingertips. It was so noisy in the prayer hall, I could just about make out his words as he repeated them and tried to explain.

As soon as we got home from the burial, I raced to the computer to research those two words: Hajj Badal. My fear turned to relief as I found out that I could actually do Hajj on behalf of my dad. But I had never done Hajj myself before. I didn't have a clue. What if I got it wrong? And even if I knew how to do it, it was too expensive for me to go from the UK right then. The funeral costs were high and it would just take too long to save up the money. All I wanted was to pay off my father's debt right now, more than ever.

And praise be to Allah, that's when I found the Radiant Drops' Hajj Badal service. The team there explained everything from beginning to end. They answered every question that I had. They gave me the faith and reassurance I needed to make the intention and arrange for someone to complete Hajj Badal for my father. It was at an affordable price, far cheaper than going on my own. I received a certificate on completion and thought to myself: "Al-Hamdu Lillah, I pray that Allah accepts it."

Here's what she had to say: "As salamu alaykum, I would like to say a few words about my Mom's Hajj Badal through the Radiant Drops website; I was so pleased to come across such a service as I wasn't aware that such an organisation existed. I found the fee a target that was obtainable, by the mercy of Allah, via a gofundme page compared to having to pay for someone from my home country to do Hajj on my Mom's behalf. It was all very straightforward and once the Hajj was completed I received a certificate of completion which I was able to post to the gofundme page, to update the donors Al-Hamdu Lillah."

This sister's mother has since passed away. May Allah give her the highest levels of Jannah. Amin.
