10. All government agencies are collaborating to provide excellent services to Umrah pilgrims.
11. Saudi Arabia cares for the health of all Muslims coming to the Kingdom, therefore, we have asked fellow Muslims in all countries to wait before completing any Hajj contracts until the situation becomes clear.
Rashid Mogradia CEO of CBHUK said:
We thank His Excellency, the Minister of Hajj & Umrah Dr Muhammad Saleh Benten for the timely update and efforts made by his team at the Ministry of Hajj & Umrah in serving the guests of Almighty Allah and issuing refunds for those who could not complete the Umrah pilgrimage due the temporary suspension of the Umrah.
We would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman for the care shown by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in protecting pilgrims, its citizens and the rest of the world from the Coronavirus Pandemic. We pray Allah protects the Holy Mosques, the people of KSA and rest of the world.
CBHUK is urging those Umrah companies who have yet to refund their customers to do so without any deductions and delay in line with Package Travel Regulations.
Whilst the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia continues to exert all efforts to protect the health of all Muslims and issuing a guidance for Muslims in all countries to wait before completing their Hajj contracts (booking a Hajj package) until the situation with regards to the Coronavirus Pandemic becomes clear, we urge British Hajj Organisers to continue to be prudent and remain transparent with those who have already booked for Hajj,
offering them reassurances and instilling confidence that their Hajj bookings are financially protected by the Civil Aviation Authority’s ATOL scheme.
Ends.
