TEHRAN (IQNA) – Sami Zayn, a Canadian professional wrestler of Syrian descent, has fulfilled his dream of performing Umrah in Mecca, the holiest city in Islam.

 

The wrestler, whose real name is Rami Sebei, shared pictures from inside the Grand Mosque in Mecca, where he completed the pilgrimage rituals.

Sami Zayn is one of the many WWE wrestlers who are on a tour to Saudi Arabia, where the Night of Champions 2023 event was organized.

Sami Zayn, who is a practicing Muslim, expressed his gratitude and joy for being able to undertake Umrah, which is a voluntary pilgrimage to Mecca that can be done at any time of the year, unlike Hajj, which is a mandatory pilgrimage that takes place during a specific period.

He said that performing Umrah was one of the best experiences of his life and that he will cherish it forever.
