New Hajj plan backs moderate, guided pilgrimage
MAKKAH: The Presidency of Religious Affairs at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque has launched the 'Enriching the Field Path' initiative as part of the Kingdom's operational plan for this year's Hajj season.
The initiative aims to enhance the pilgrimage experience through scientific guidance and awareness programs that promote a message of moderate Hajj in multiple languages, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Saturday.
It includes more than 20 digital, technical, educational, devotional and faith-based awareness initiatives delivered in various languages.
Its goal is to enrich pilgrims' spiritual journey with impactful religious content and high-quality services, enabling them to perform rituals with understanding in a devotional atmosphere.
Sheikh Abdulrahman Al-Sudais, head of the presidency, emphasized the importance of strengthening on-the-ground efforts to deliver improved enrichment services for all pilgrims.
He urged a focus on promoting the message of a moderate, faith-based Hajj to the global community through multilingual platforms.
Al-Sudais also called for easing ritual performance with gentleness, wisdom and compassionate guidance, while using digital tools and AI to overcome time and geographic barriers in spreading the message of a humane and moderate Hajj.
