Omani pilgrims begin departing Makkah after completing Hajj Rituals

Muscat: Today, the 13th of Dhu al-Hijjah 1446 AH, pilgrims began departing Makkah after completing the Hajj rituals in an atmosphere of security and tranquility, by the grace of God.

They benefited from an integrated system of services provided by the relevant authorities, which enabled them to perform the fifth pillar of Islam with ease and peace of mind.

Pilgrims who chose to hasten their departure left Makkah yesterday, the 12th of Dhu al-Hijjah, after performing the stoning of the three Jamarat (Small, Middle, and Large) on the second day of Tashreeq. They concluded their pilgrimage with the Farewell Tawaf — the final circumambulation of the Holy Kaaba.

Around 14,000 pilgrims from the Sultanate of Oman performed the Hajj rituals smoothly and comfortably, thanks to the dedicated efforts of the Omani Hajj Mission's specialized delegations. The mission worked to meet the pilgrims’ needs and provided a range of services to help them complete the Hajj successfully.

The Omani Hajj Mission will continue offering its services until all Omani Hajj campaigns have departed the Holy Land.
