He who looks after an orphan will be with me in Jannah like this
Pedal 4 Palestine is a flagship Cycling challenge from Unique Children’s Charity in partnership with Global Ehsan Relief. In it’s first year, participants from across the UK will be taking part in this epic journey from Makkah to Madinah, covering a phenomenal distance of over 550 kilometers between two of Islam’s holiest of cities.
The journey symbolises the migration that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) took as he fled persecution in Makkah and travelled to Madinah for safety. The Annual Hijrah Ride supports Palestinian orphan children facing mental health challenges, war, and poverty, providing them with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform Umrah!

For many of us, performing Umrah to Makkah, is a sacred spiritual journey, a deeply personal and fulfilling experience.
Our Umrah for Orphans is a very special programme with the aim of sponsoring Palestinian orphans from Jordan on a blessed journey to Makkah & Madinah to perform Umrah. For each Palestinian orphan that we bring to Umrah, it will be an amazing journey to connect with their faith and a realisation of their dreams to visit the holy lands.
An Educational, Spiritual Journey
Umrah is a life-changing experience for anyone, more so for these orphans. It will help to strengthen their faith and help them see that they are part of a global family. It is a form of mental and spiritual healing from the psychological trauma they have had to experience at such a young age. For our orphans, it would be the first time they venture to another country. This Umrah journey could be one trip that will change their lives forever.
Sponsor their Umrah today
Reap the immense reward of sending an orphan to Umrah, where they’ll stand in prayer before the Kaaba a memory that will be etched in their hearts for a lifetime. For just £600, you can sponsor an orphan child’s transformative journey to Umrah. This amount covers not only the pilgrimage but also includes their meals, accommodation and overall welfare during the trip.
