Ehsan Platform opens online Adahi requests for Hajj 2025
Saudi Gazette report
MAKKAH — The Ehsan National Platform for Charitable Work is now accepting requests for sacrificial animals (Adahi) for the Hajj season of 2025.
The Royal Commission for Makkah City and Holy Sites, in collaboration with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Project for Utilization of Hady and Adahi (Adahi), initiated this digital service, which facilitates the performance of the prescribed Islamic ritual of sacrificing animal.
Pilgrims and individuals offering sacrifices can securely authorize the Ehsan platform for the ritual's execution within the Islamic time frame. The platform ensures efficient distribution to eligible beneficiaries.
To request the service, users can log in to the platform, access "Our Programs," select the Adahi program, specify the type and quantity of sacrifice, and authorize the platform. Real-time tracking of requests is available.
The program offers various options, including Hady and Adahi during Hajj, Fidyah (expiation), Aqiqah (animal sacrifice that is offered on behalf of the newborn), and general Sadaqah (charity) throughout the year.
This Adahi project streamlines the digital fulfillment of rituals for pilgrims and donors, allowing them to submit requests for sacrifices and charities and authorize the Ehsan platform for timely delivery to those in need.

4,900 train journeys and 2m passengers expected on holy sites metro over 7 days of Hajj
RIYADH: Trains on the Al-Mashaaer Al-Mugaddassah Metro Line are expected to complete a total of 4,900 journeys, carrying up to 2 million passengers, in the space of just seven days during Hajj. The metro, known in English as the Sacred Sites Train Line, is a high-capacity rail system in Makkah that operates for only seven days a year, during Hajj, as a shuttle service to take pilgrims to and from holy sites. Offering insights on Monday into the transportation systems that will serve pilgrims, Saleh Al-Zuwaid, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Transport and Logistic Services, said comprehensive preparations have been taking place ahead of the annual pilgrimage across all travel sectors, including air, land, sea and logistics. 'So far, 3,314 flights from 238 destinations in 71 countries, via 62 air carriers, have arrived in the Kingdom,' he said. There has been a 75 percent increase in the number of trips on Haramain High Speed Railway, compared with last year, he added, and a 'Hajj without Luggage' initiative allows pilgrims arriving in Saudi Arabia to travel to Makkah by train while their luggage is transported separately for convenience. In addition, more than 25,000 buses have been provided to ensure the safe and comfortable movement of pilgrims, backed by an extensive inspections process, he said. The latest technology, including artificial intelligence, is also being deployed to enhance transportation, Al-Zuwaid said. A fleet of vehicles equipped with AI is scanning the Kingdom's roads, from arrival ports to the holy sites, to help improve safety and ensure necessary maintenance is carried out. This year, these advanced technologies have helped to maintain 7,400 kilometers of roads leading to the holy sites. Detailing advances in digital infrastructure, Saad Al-Shanbari, a spokesperson for Hajj communications and technology, said that 4G and 5G coverage in Makkah, Madinah and at the holy sites now exceeds 99 percent, with significant increases in internet speeds. More than 10,500 Wi-Fi access points have been installed to enrich the digital experience for pilgrims, he added, and AI-powered crowd-management and specialized communication systems have been implemented in collaboration with Aramco Digital, to help ensure a reliable digital experience throughout Hajj season. The spokespersons reaffirmed their commitment to providing the best possible services and encouraged pilgrims to adhere to official guidelines designed to enhance their experiences and ensure their safety. Hajj begins on Wednesday, June 4, and will continue until Monday, June 9.
