The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has issued an official warning as the Hajj season approaches, aiming to ensure the safety and order of pilgrims visiting the holy sites. The Ministry reiterated that obtaining an official permit is mandatory for performing the Hajj pilgrimage.
As noted in the official statement, holding a Hajj permit guarantees that pilgrims can perform their worship in comfortable and safe conditions. This document:
The Ministry warns that attempting to perform Hajj without a permit not only leads to administrative and criminal liability but also places an excessive burden on the infrastructure of the holy sites. Such situations can cause a decline in the quality of services for other pilgrims and a breach of safety protocols.
Currently, the relevant Saudi Arabian authorities are working closely with international Hajj councils and agencies. The goal is to ensure that pilgrims receive complete and accurate information regarding the Kingdom's legal requirements before leaving their home countries.
The Ministry’s Call: "Ensure that all services are carried out only through legal channels. Remember: the principle of 'No Hajj without a permit' is the guarantee of every pilgrim's safety."
