MAKKAH:

Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Sardar Muhammad Yousuf has directed the Pakistan Haj Mission to ensure the timely transport of Pakistani pilgrims to the holy sites (Mashair) of Mina, Arafat, and Muzdalifah.

He instructed that "Murshids" (guides) well-versed in the routes of Mina, the tents of Arafat, and Muzdalifah be deployed on pilgrims' buses.

He emphasized that pilgrims must be informed well in advance whether they will be using bus or train transit to the holy sites, adding that the ritual animal slaughter will be completed timely through Saudi Arabia's Adahi Project.
