Two and a half hundred people had to cook
"Two and a half hundred people had to cook, twice a day, two and a half hundred people.
I was a single cook but I was happy that God had given me employment. I had to work hard, but I never complained to anyone, never gave anyone a chance to complain.
He used to do his work with full hard work and honesty, he cooked good food. No one has ever objected, no one has ever raised a finger about the quality, the taste."
We were sitting outside the Haram courtyard in Makkah. I came here to perform Umrah and that labor. It was a coincidence that we both met and then this coincidence gave me the opportunity to hear his story.
"I was happy with my hard work, so happy that I even forgave the agent who told me many lies, who took eleven thousand riyals from me for this job. And in those eleven thousand riyals There was no accommodation fee, there was no sponsor's expense. I found out all this when I came here, but now I could not do anything Then he borrowed from acquaintances and paid 11,000 riyals to the agent.
When he came here, he found out that he had lied. Just had an independent visa and this cooking job on top of that. Now, if I had arranged for a sponsor and an accommodation, I would have had to pay another nine thousand riyals.
Despite all this, I forgave the agent saying, "Let's get a job." Now I wanted to make my place in this job by working hard. I wanted to pay off my debt, then collect the money and complete the Iqama and Kafeel matters and then start sending money home.
