Sharjah 24 - WAM: The General Authority for Islamic Affairs, Endowments, and Zakat, commonly referred to as Awqaf, approved the names of 6,228 pilgrims for the Hajj season of 1446 AH/2025.

This early preparation seeks to guarantee the seamless and effective execution of Hajj rituals, allowing UAE pilgrims to complete all necessary procedures promptly, thereby addressing their needs and aspirations within a comforting spiritual atmosphere. The Hajj authorities in Saudi Arabia have designated the UAE with the sanctioned number.

Registration process

Notably, 5,648 pilgrims—representing 91% of the total—are preparing to perform Hajj for the first time, while the remaining 580 pilgrims (9%) include "maharims" and accompanying individuals. Additionally, the Pilgrims Affairs Office has designated 62 additional permits (1%) to ensure optimal support and service during the pilgrimage.

We carried out the accreditation procedures using an automated sorting program in accordance with Cabinet Resolution No. (32) of 2018 and the established standards. About 60,248 people have registered for Hajj via the authority's official channels, with 51,732 being first-time pilgrims.

The authority has reiterated its dedication to providing outstanding services by encouraging all approved pilgrims to monitor its digital platforms for additional updates and campaign selections.
