The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has launched a detailed digital guide to help pilgrims performing Hajj and Umrah. This guide is designed to make the pilgrimage easier and more understandable for people from different countries. It supports 16 languages, including Urdu, so that a wide range of pilgrims can access important information in their own language.
Available in both written and audio formats, the guide covers a variety of useful topics. These include cybersecurity, legal and financial matters, health tips, and step-by-step instructions on how to perform the rituals of Hajj and Umrah. It also provides helpful details about key religious sites in Saudi Arabia.
Along with this digital guide, the Ministry has also announced an important health requirement. This year, meningitis vaccination is mandatory for all domestic pilgrims. Pilgrims must show proof of vaccination before they can buy any Hajj packages.
With these updates, the Ministry is aiming to improve the overall pilgrimage experience, making it safer, more organized, and more accessible for everyone preparing for this spiritual journey.
