No Hajj Without A Permit: Saudi Arabia's Vision For Safe And Seamless Pilgrimage
MINA (Saudi Arabia), June 6 (Bernama-SPA) -- Saudi Arabia's unwavering commitment to ensuring a safe and secure Hajj for every pilgrim is embodied in its annual national awareness and regulatory campain "No Hajj Without a Permit', a cornerstone of the Kingdom's national vision for a successful pilgrimage. The campaign, aimed at both domestic and international pilgrims, is a testament to the Saudi leadership's dedication to providing comprehensive services, safety, comfort, and reassurance, preventing the chaos and violations that have historically disrupted the smooth flow of Hajj. "No Hajj Without a Permit" directly addresses issues such as unauthorised pilgrims, road congestion, and fraudulent Hajj campaigns that expose pilgrims to harsh conditions, according to Saudi Press Agency (SPA). bootstrap slideshow For the Hajj season 1446 AH, the campaign has underscored the Kingdom's firm resolve, emphasising that a successful Hajj is a shared national, security, and organisational responsibility. Measures include proactive awareness messaging, intensified security checkpoints at entry points to Makkah and the holy sites, the use of advanced monitoring technologies, and the immediate enforcement of penalties for violations. This year's Arafah Day, in particular, highlighted the campaign's success, SPA reported. Pilgrims followed instructions and arrived at their designated camps on time, resulting in an unprecedentedly smooth traffic flow and clear roads around Arafat and Namirah Mosque. A palpable sense of tranquility and reassurance prevailed as pilgrims performed their essential Hajj rituals, supported by a secure environment and extensive government services. Each authorised pilgrim was allocated equipped spaces within the holy sites, ensuring an organised experience that prioritised their health and service needs, including housing, catering, healthcare, and modern transportation, while smart applications and platforms further enhanced awareness efforts.
