Changes in Saudi rules for Hajj pilgrims, now they must take permission to enter Mecca

According to Gulf News, a large number of Umrah pilgrims came to Mecca’s al-Haram Mosque during Ramadan this year. According to the report, about 30 million Muslims from abroad, including Saudi Arabia, performed Umrah. In addition, 33 million people prayed at the Nabawi Mosque during the month of Ramadan. In such a situation, there is hope that a record number of Hajj pilgrims will visit this year as well. The Ministry of Hajj imposed a duty of 3,500 people on pilgrims coming and going to Medina this year. In addition, the government renovated a large number of Islamic historical monuments. This time, people will also get guides. According to the Ministry of Hajj, about 1.8 million pilgrims came to Saudi Arabia last year.
