JEDDAH, Dec 25 (Bernama-SPA) -- Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, in partnership with the General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques, reported more than 11.9 million Umrah performances during the month of Jumada Al Akhira (six month in the Islamic calendar) by pilgrims from inside and outside the Kingdom, according to official statistics.
Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported that such a remarkable figure reflects the growing momentum of performing Umrah and highlights the exceptional efficiency of the services and facilities dedicated to serving the worshipers.
The data also revealed that over 1.7 million Umrah performers arrived from outside the Kingdom during this month.
This influx underscores the positive impact of advanced digital platforms and integrated logistical services, which have streamlined arrival procedures and allowed Umrah performers to perform their rituals with ease, comfort, and peace of mind.
The continued surge in the performance of Umrah rituals embodies the Kingdom’s unwavering commitment to cultivating the Hajj, Umrah, and visitation ecosystem, in line with the goals of the Saudi Vision 2030.
Through continuous innovation and care, the Kingdom is making access to the two holy mosques easier while delivering a comprehensive spiritual journey that prioritises the comfort and safety of Umrah performers at every stage - from planning their visit to departing the Kingdom.
