How does Umrah strengthen one’s relationship with Allah?
The whole act of worship during Umrah from the intention to perform Umrah to conducting Umrah brings one close to Allah. However, as people devote themselves to Allah and asks forgiveness in his house, the journey spiritually cleanses one of their past sins. Getting doubts cleared by the Islamic scholars will build faith over Allah and in Islam.
The pilgrimage of Umrah is highly rewarding and beneficial to all the Muslims around the world. Every year, millions of pilgrims head on to the religious journey and seek blessings and forgiveness from the almighty Allah. Additionally, the journey of Umrah revitalizes the faith of an individual in Allah and Islam.
Why go for Umrah?
Narrated by Abu Huraira RA:
Allah's Messenger Sallallahu-Alayhi-Wa-Sallaam (Peace & salutations be upon him) said, "(The performance of) 'Umrah is an expiation for the sins committed (between it and the previous one). And the reward of Hajj Mabrur (the one accepted by Allah) is nothing except Paradise. - Sahih Bukhari

Elevate Your Hajj and Umrah
Experience with al makkah.
Hajj and Umrah are religious obligations for all Muslims worldwide and should be performed every year if possible. Islam demands that any individual with money should take part at least once. As per Islamic teaching, doing Hajj once will secure entry to Jannah purifying sins away and beginning life again with new commitments and promises.
Hajj can be traced back to Ibrahim (AS) and Ismail’s (AS) sacrifices, from leaving their wives and sons alone in the mountains, building the Kaaba and animal sacrifice to recalling Ibrahim AS and his family’s sacrifices at various points during Hajj hence it remains close to every Muslim heart today.
Umrah is the beautiful Sunnah of our Prophet PBUH, and it is commanded to perform Umrah to refresh the Muslim’s faith in Allah, Prophet PBUH, and judgment day. In Umrah, the pilgrim will visit Kaaba, places in Makkah, and Ziarat in Madina at very reasonable rates.

The Makkah Route Initiative provides pilgrims with the highest level of efficiency and comfort in their pilgrimage journey by enabling them to complete their entry procedures to Saudi Arabia in their home countries’ airports, and providing direct transfer to accommodation in Makkah and Madinah.
Established in 2018 and officially activated in 2019, the Makkah Route Initiative is a revolutionary program aimed at enhancing the pilgrimage experience for worshipers from Pakistan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Morocco, Bangladesh, Türkiye, and the Ivory Coast. The efficiency pilgrims experience during their visit to the Kingdom will enable them to be fully committed to performing one of their holiest duties. Upon arrival in Saudi Arabia, pilgrims and their luggage are directly transported to their accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, avoiding long lines and wait times at the airport. Pilgrims arriving under this Initiative are spending only a few minutes at the Saudi immigration counters. The Saudi government is committed to easing pilgrims’ travel at every step of their journey, and the Makkah Route Initiative is a key component of this effort. A number of government agencies, including the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Health, are working together to provide a seamless and smooth experience for Makkah Route participants. Learn more about how Vision 2030 and the Pilgrim Experience Program are enriching pilgrims’ spiritual experience.

Saudi Arabia eyes 320,000 new hotel rooms to meet soaring tourism goals
By bne Gulf bureau
Saudi Arabia is projected to have 320,000 new hotel rooms by 2030 as the Kingdom ramps up efforts to accommodate an annual influx of 150mn tourists, both domestic and international, according to a report by global property consultancy Knight Frank .
This massive expansion of the hospitality sector is central to achieving Saudi Arabia's goal of increasing the travel and tourism industry's contribution to the economy from nearly 6% to 10% by the end of this decade, the report stated.
The analysis comes on the heels of record tourism numbers for Saudi Arabia in 2022, with visitor spending reaching $23.2bn in the first half of 2023 alone - a 132% jump from last year. International arrivals surged 142% year-on-year to 14.6 million in the first six months.
While nearby Gulf nations like Bahrain, Kuwait and Egypt emerged as top source markets, Saudi authorities are exploring strategies to attract visitors from further afield, said Turab Saleem, Knight Frank's head of hospitality and tourism advisory for the Middle East.
'This includes developing cultural and entertainment offerings nationwide to complement existing attractions like the Jeddah F1 Grand Prix and numerous 'Entertainment Seasons,'' Saleem added.
Notable projects include theme parks like Boulevard World and Qiddiya in Riyadh, as well as Saudi Arabia's successful bid to host the 2030 World Expo, which is expected to draw 40mn visitors and inject $94.6 billion into the local economy.
The report highlights that 67% of the projected 320,000 new hotel rooms will be upscale or luxury properties, typically requiring one to two staff members per room. This suggests between 232,000 and 387,000 hospitality workers may need accommodation as the sector expands rapidly.
Knight Frank expects Marriott International to overtake Accor as Saudi Arabia's largest hotel operator by 2030, with 26,200 rooms under its management compared to Accor's projected 25,400 rooms.
'Provision of quality housing for hospitality staff will be essential to ensure the success of Saudi's tourism ambitions,' said Faisal Durrani, Knight Frank's head of research for the Middle East.
The holy cities of Mecca and Medina are set for a significant hotel boom, with 221,000 new rooms announced, planned or under construction to cater to religious tourists - expected to reach 30mn annually by 2025 and 50mn by 2030.
Knight Frank estimates around $104bn will be required for construction costs alone to realize the 320,000 new hotel rooms nationwide, with $70bn dedicated to the religious tourism hubs of Mecca and Medina.
