Please maintain respect for each other and Ulamaa (if topic is about a scholar) by avoiding accusations and slanderous comments. Also remember that in order for criticism to be constructive, it must be channeled in the right direction. If there is any doubt in a matter, it is better to ask, clarify or to remain silent rather than to speak ill of another person.

Nusuk platform offers 2 additional methods for booking and praying at Rawdah Sharif

The first option is the instant booking feature, which allows multiple visits to Al-Rawdah Al-Sharif throughout the year, as long as the faithful are near the Prophet's Mosque and within its capacity limits.

Saudi Gazette report

MAKKAH — The Nusuk platform, overseen by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah to serve pilgrims, has introduced two additional methods for booking and praying at Al-Rawdah Al-Sharif at the Prophet's Mosque in Madinah to facilitate the experience of pilgrims.

The first option is the instant booking feature, which allows multiple visits to the Rawdah Al-Sharif throughout the year, as long as they are near the Prophet's Mosque and within its capacity limits. The second method is a waitlist option, where visitors can register if bookings are unavailable and will be notified when a slot becomes available to confirm their reservation.

The Nusuk application enables those wishing to perform Umrah and visit the holy sites to request permits for entry into the Two Holy Mosques for Umrah, visits, and prayers, in accordance with capacity regulations set by relevant authorities. This ensures a safe and spiritual environment that adheres to health and organizational precautionary measures.

The application integrates with Tawakkalna to verify the health status of permit applicants. It also facilitates the booking of permits and scheduling for Umrah and visits to the Prophet’s Mosque. Furthermore, the application streamlines the process for pilgrims arriving from abroad to obtain their visas, offering simple and accessible electronic procedures around the clock.

The Nusuk platform, available for download on smart devices through the App Store and Google Play, allows users to book Umrah packages and visit programs electronically.

New Delhi: Saudi Arabia is set to begin allowing non-Saudis to invest in publicly-traded companies that own real estate in Mecca and Medina.

According to a statement from the Capital Market Authority, from Monday, January 27, foreigners will be allowed to purchase shares and convertible debt instruments in firms owning private or public real estate in the holy cities.

This is despite a continuing ban on non-Muslims directly owning property in the cities, which are coveted by many who see them as reliable, stable locations for investment.

https://www.siasat.com/saudi-arabia-suspends-meningitis-vaccine-requirement-for-umrah-pilgrims-3176427/

Riyadh: The General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) in Saudi Arabia on Thursday, February 6, announced the suspension of a previous directive that required Umrah pilgrims to be vaccinated against Neisseria meningitis, which was scheduled to come into effect from Monday, February 10.

The decision was communicated through an official circular sent to all airlines operating in the Kingdom’s airports, including private carriers.

According to the circular which was issued on January 7, 2025, all individuals travelling to Saudi Arabia for Umrah—regardless of their visa type—must provide proof of receiving the meningitis vaccine before their journey.

Manager of Sales, Saudia Airlines, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, Mohammed Rehan Inamdar, confirmed the decision to Siasat.com. While no specific reasons have been provided for the suspension, the move is expected to simplify entry procedures for pilgrims travelling to the Kingdom.
