As Islamophobia continues to take over the world, there are still some good people out there that not only don't want to judge people based on their faith but actually want to help them in their religious practices.

Each year, millions of Muslim pilgrims embark on their journey to the holy city of Mecca, the destination for the pilgrims fulfilling their duties and dreams.

One Saudi Arabian scientist, Kamel Badawi, has been assisting Muslim pilgrims since he was younger and has seen first-hand what it takes to make such a trek.

Along with his Palestinian partner, Manal Dandis, they developed a smart umbrella called Kafka that uses solar energy to power a built-in fan, a GPS system to direct the user, a flashlight, and three USB outlets for charging devices.

Badawi explained why they decided to create smart umbrellas:

"Umbrellas are always in demand especially in Europe. They are also being used in Hajj. However the pilgrims only use the umbrella as a form of protection from the sun. No one has considered the umbrella could be used for more than one purpose. When we started thinking about this, we found that we could install a built-in fan to keep the user cool."

Since the next twelve years are supposed to be extremely hot in the Middle East, as reported by Tribune, this umbrella could literally save lives.

The GPS system connects to an app so that each pilgrim can more easily communicate with each other regarding location and status.

Since they want people from all different countries and faiths to find this product attractive and useful to avoid the heat, the pair are avoiding marketing it as a Hajj-only product.
