Final Iraqi Pilgrims Depart Saudi Arabia from Jadidat Arar Crossing

Riyadh: Iraqi Hajj Pilgrims Bid Farewell at Jadidat Arar Land Crossing

In a heartwarming scene, the last group of Iraqi Hajj pilgrims departed Saudi Arabia through the Jadidat Arar land crossing in the Northern Border region on Thursday.

As they left, they were showered with gifts of vibrant flowers and copies of the holy Qur’an, symbolizing the end of their spiritual journey.

Although the Hajj officially concluded on June 18, many pilgrims choose to extend their stay in the Kingdom to explore the rich historical sites in Makkah and Madinah, such as the revered Prophet’s Mosque.
