實用小貼士
FOOD:
Do not carry food from your homeland; almost everything is
available there. Also, remember that your food may be taken
from you at the airports.
To develop good eating habits, observe the following
a. Always avoid eating big meals, (a) because this is not healthy,
and (b) this is not helpful for performing rituals.
b. The best foods to eat are fruits, and the best drinks are water
and juice. They are everywhere and inexpensive.
c. Always put the remains of food in a plastic bag, and be sure
to put it in a trash container.
MEDICATION:
Carry only indispensable medication that is essential for your
health. Other common medicines can be obtained from any
drugstore. You can get free first aid care in all ritual areas.
PROTECTION:
Beware of the high temperatures in all ritual areas. Avoid being
exposed to the sun for long periods of time. Always use umbrellas
and drink a lot of liquids.
SERVICES FOR HANDICAPPED:
For the weak, the sick, the handicapped, and elderly people, there
are special services provided. Wheel chairs and on-shoulder-litters
can be rented for those who need them. Ask the authorities for
these services inside Al-Masjid Al-Haraam. Sometimes you may find
them free, but usually they are not very expensive. Take advantage
of these services if you need them.
