    They spend their life savings to do this and ended up losing their lives . She was a retired nurse , you would think she would have known not to do this at their age and in that kind of heat .
  • @WendyQallab
    To pay that money and not have transportation was just not right. What a tragedy.
  • @1quiensabe
    Glad my God doesn’t require me to walk around in 125 degree heat!
  • @LadyCarlsbad
    It amazes me how anyone goes out in the desert during SUMMER! As someone who lives in Southern UT, we go to the desert Oct-Mar, and go out early/late day. God rest their souls❤
  • In Christianity, you dont want to visit any holy site. God is with you always.
  • @Thaddeus-ml8if
    Worshipping the religion of the ppl that actually enslaved their ppl and brutally I might add.
  • @SmartWentCrazy
    Some of these comments are really heartless. The young lady is so composed even after losing her parents.
  • @kaisaan5
    May Allah give them jannahtul firdos AMEEN 🤲🏽
  • @margcolea2725
    I am glad I am born again Christian. My dear Lord Jesus had died on the cross on my behalf for He had paid the full price for my salvation..

    Subhanallah!!! Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajihun. May Allah accept their return, forgive their shortcomings and grant them Al Jannah Firdaus. What a devastating loss to the family. Prayers of comfort to the family and friends left behind. Surah Ikhlas 3x.
  • Before traveling out of the US, please do homework on the country. Spending $20,000 for vacation without solid amenities is unacceptable. We as children of elderly parents have to ensure that they are making good decisions. Now, the daughter has to bear the burden of locating their dead bodies.
  • @brookskimball48
    They keep saying "religious" pilgrimage but don't mention the religion.
  • @Rotoflier
    Can you imagine walking and praying to god while your fellow worshippers die from heat while you just watch?
  • @joblessskin
    Jesus said when you pray lock your door so nobody can see you pray .
  • So sorry for your loss of your parents, Prayers for you all and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 R.I.P 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
