The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria has transported no fewer than 43,817 Hajj pilgrims to Saudi Arabia in 104 flight operations.
According to him, at every stage of the Hajj rites, clerics are well-stationed to ensure that pilgrims perform the religious obligation in accordance with the teachings and traditions of Prophet Muhammad .
“Similarly, when we go to Makkah, we have a committee called the Trajuddiyya that will guide pilgrims throughout the period of core Hajj rituals. “The committee will make sure that no pilgrim is left in Munah on the day of Arafat and after the Arafat they will ensure that all pilgrims move to Muzdalifah and from there they will guide pilgrims on how to go to Jamrat and do the symbolic devil stoning,” Mahmud said.All rights reserved.
