It was 02.00 am at a dawn time in a hotel lobby - not far from the Grand Mosque in Mecca, when a group of people equipped with a red atributes looked ready to travel. They are members of the IAS (Association of Sabhawana Alumni Sabhawana ) who also the umra pilgrims departed in May 24 to June 1, 2010.
Jabl al-Nur is a hiking destination that night. Could it be intuition climber so embedded in their soul, so they were willing to held this trip? It wasn't merely like that. The spirit to learn and feel the life and struggle of the Prophet Muhammad - although probably not even a little piece is able to understood - was the main purpose of this trip.

Perjalanan kami mulai menunjukkan akhir, setelah berkendera motor hampir 1 jam, kami telah melewati sebuah sumber air yang bernama Kali Sureng. Sumber air ini berasal dari sebuah cerukan dalam tanah seperti gua, yang menurut penduduk sekitar, mulut gua tersebut memang sengaja di tutup dari jaman kakek buyut mereka tanpa alasan yang jelas. Namun sumber ini tidak pernah kering walaupun memasuki puncak musim kemarau.

Have you ever imagine standing in the middle of a a vast prairie, cold and foggy, with towering mountains surround you and beautiful perennial flower beds scattered everywhere? As far as the eye could see, you will see only blue skies and breath-taking scenery, far from the city bustle and noise vehicles sounds.
The valley of Surya Kencana. Yes, this is where you can experience all the beauty, serenity, and tranquility. This is where you can feel so small as a creature of God, because the mountains that surround you are stand so proud, and meadows so widely spread, makes us feel so small and meaningless.

Mother Nature doesn’t really care if her unpredictability irritates you.
Take volcanoes. In 2002, ten of the world’s major active ones erupted, including Italy’s Etna and Stromboli. In 2003, Mama cut eruptions to six, four of which were in Indonesia. Would she continue the trend? Well, no. In 2004, 26 major volcanoes erupted worldwide in places as far flung as Guatemala, Japan, Mexico, Alaska and, once again, Indonesia.
It gets more unpredictable, of course. Volcanic eruptions sometimes kill, force evacuations, or trigger earthquakes, and sometimes they don’t. Locals live with this uncertainty and often not by choice. As travelers we often can choose, and while we can’t always predict what nature has in store, some destinations harbor more natural dangers than others.
