Exclusive: King Salman’s Royal Order for 1,000 Palestinian Family Members to Attend Hajj

King Salman’s Generosity Extends to Palestinian Families for Hajj

In a display of compassion and support, King Salman has once again shown his generosity by ordering the hosting of 1,000 family members of Palestinians affected by the ongoing conflict in Gaza for this year’s Hajj pilgrimage. This latest directive adds to a previous order in May for another 1,000 family members, bringing the total number of Palestinian guests hosted for Hajj to 2,000.

This initiative is part of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’ Guests Program for Hajj and Umrah, overseen by the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah, and Guidance. Established 26 years ago, this program has provided the opportunity for more than 60,000 pilgrims to experience the spiritual journey of Hajj.

King Salman’s commitment to supporting those in need and demonstrating solidarity with the Palestinian people is evident through this gesture. By offering this opportunity to Palestinian families affected by the conflict, he is ensuring that they can participate in one of the most significant religious events in Islam and find solace and peace during this challenging time.
