Mumbai: With Saudi Arabia frees Umrah pilgrims from India from the five-day quarantine requirements to reach there, pilgrims and tour operators are very happy.
While HAJ is done every year, Umrah or small pilgrimage can be done throughout the year.
Even though Saudi allowed the visit of Umrah pilgrims to Haram Sharief in Mecca with several restrictions, a few weeks ago, the requirements of the quarantine of 15 days in third countries – UAE, Russia and Kazakhstan, including – or quarantine five days in Saudi Arabia understated their hearts.
The Haj Saudi Ministry issued a revised quarantine norm in recent tweets.
“Shortly for tour operators and pilgrims.
We will get a number of questions every day about the Umrah visa, but it is helpless because of the rules of quarantine.
Now, the number of Indian pilgrims that occur for Umrah will rise,” said Yusuf Ahmed Shered from Al Khalid’s tour and trip.
One of the first Indian tour operators to get a Umrah visa published Post Pandemi.
“I am very happy that I have received a visa of Umrah and will soon travel to Saudi Arabia to pray in the holy mosques in Mecca and Medina and are in the Holy Prophet’s Mausoleum,” said Imtiyaz Vilatra, Head of State Postercope House Ooh Company House.
Even though Umrah was carried out in Mecca, almost all pilgrims also visited Medina to pay tribute to the Prophet Muhammad in the Mausoleum there.
