Saudi and IDB mobile van simplify Hajj animal voucher sales to pilgrim
A token for the Sacrificial Animal offering can be obtained by pilgrims by paying 720 Saudi riyals. These tickets may be simply distributed to pilgrims living in various locations thanks to mobile vans.
Pilgrims’ accommodations will be close to where the tokens will be distributed, either through stationary kiosks or mobile vans.
The pilgrims will be advised of their assigned time for the sacrifice ceremony after getting the token. The pilgrims will perform the “Halq” ritual, which entails shaving or clipping hair, after the sacrifice.
According to a statement from Muhammad Umer Butt, spokesman for the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony. This programme was created to make it easier for Pakistani pilgrims who want to make their sacrifice with the backing of the Pakistani government.
Director General Hajj Abdul Wahab Soomro stressed the significance of getting registered sacrifice coupons from recognised sources like the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) and Saudi Post. While advising Pakistani pilgrims to stay away from obtaining them from unapproved channels.
He emphasised that purchasing these permitted vouchers ensures their legality and conformity with Saudi laws for the sacrifice ceremony.
For the ease of the pilgrims, the DG Hajj guarantees that all necessary amenities. Including lodging, food, and transportation, have been painstakingly planned in Makkah.
