In a historic move, Pakistan’s Ministry of Religious Affairs has announced that for the first time in the history of Hajj, Pakistani pilgrims will stay in fully air-conditioned camps in Mina. This landmark initiative is aimed at enhancing the comfort and well-being of the pilgrims during the Hajj season, particularly given the extreme heat experienced in the region.
The air-conditioned camps are equipped with modern amenities to provide a cooler, more comfortable environment for the pilgrims as they undertake the sacred rituals. This development marks a significant improvement in the living conditions of Pakistani pilgrims, who traditionally have faced challenges in Mina’s high temperatures.
The move is part of an ongoing effort by the Saudi government and Pakistan’s Hajj authorities to modernize the Hajj experience and ensure the health and safety of the pilgrims. It is expected to make a considerable difference in the overall pilgrimage experience, particularly during the peak of summer.
Pakistan’s Minister for Religious Affairs expressed his gratitude for the cooperation between the Saudi government and the Hajj Mission, emphasizing that this will improve the quality of the pilgrimage and reflect the commitment to serving the needs of the Muslim ummah.
Pilgrims are excited about the development, with many praising the Saudi government’s efforts to accommodate the growing number of pilgrims. The move is seen as a step towards the modernization of Hajj facilities, ensuring that the sacred journey remains a spiritually fulfilling and physically comfortable experience for all involved.
