Islamic Affairs Ministry Greets 500 Palestinian Pilgrims As King’s Guests

01 June 2025

1-minute read

The Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Call and Guidance has welcomed the first group of 500 Palestinian pilgrims from the West Bank, comprising families of martyrs, prisoners, and the wounded.

MAKKAH — The Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Call and Guidance has welcomed the first group of 500 Palestinian pilgrims from the West Bank, comprising families of martyrs, prisoners, and the wounded. They came for Hajj under the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’ Guests Program for Hajj, Umrah, and Visit.

This is in line with a generous directive from Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman to host a total of 1,000 pilgrims from these Palestinian families at his own personal expense.

Upon their arrival in the Kingdom, the ministry’s field committees provided comprehensive services, including escorting them to their accommodations in Makkah, organizing their transportation, and ensuring all their needs were met. These efforts aimed to enable the guests to perform their Hajj rituals in an atmosphere of peace and comfort.
