Pilgrims in Saudi Arabia will begin Hajj from today (Sunday) because the pilgrims arrived in Mina.
Like last year, Hajj is being held with a limited number of pilgrims and foreign travellers being barred from performing the annual pilgrimage this year.
Saudi Arabia has allowed only 60,000 pilgrims to perform the annual pilgrimage this year from citizens and residents. “In light of what the entire world is witnessing from the continuing developments of the coronavirus pandemic and therefore the emergence of latest mutations, Hajj registration are going to be limited to residents and citizens from inside the dominion only,” the Saudi Hajj ministry had announced on Twitter last month. Only people aged between 18 and 65 who are vaccinated are going to be ready to participate , it added.
The ministry added that those wishing to perform Hajj must be freed from any chronic diseases. Last year, only 1,000 people residing within the kingdom were selected to perform the pilgrimage.
