Saya berharap dapat menunaikan ibadah Haji tahun ini, Insya Allah, kata Ellison, seperti dikutip AFP, sebelum delegasi Kongres AS yang dipimpin oleh Ketua Parlemen AS Nancy Pelosi mengakhiri serangkaian kunjungannya ke beberapa negara di Timur Tengah.
I did think of going to perform Umrah (the smaller pilgrimage) but the schedule did not allow it, Keith Ellison, a Minnesota Democrat, told AFP before the congressional delegation wraps up its regional tour.
