MAKKAH, November 06, SPA – A comprehensive plan has been drawn up to
provide all facilities to a mammoth number of pilgrims, who will
perform Hajj this year.

The new plan envisages fool-proof security, easy transportation,
24-hour water and hygiene to the pilgrims in the Holy Mosque here,
said Al-Sheikh Salih Bin Abdurrahman Al-Hussein, Chief of the
Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques.

The Presidency has distributed thousands of booklets in various
languages to enlighten the pilgrims about the rituals of Hajj.

Several renowned scholars have been engaged to lecture after Fajr
