Plan your first Hajj Tour properly

Are you going to Hajj for the first time? If yes, then, getting all the details right about the Hajj is very important. Hajj is a holy pilgrimage and every Muslim should go for Hajj at least once or twice in their life. But as the number of Hajis were increasing every year, so the Hajj Committee decided to fix a number of people visiting for Hajj every year. That is why there is a limitation on the number of people going for Hajj from different countries. If you are in the UK, you can check about it from the British Hajj and Umrah Services provider. They will also be able to help you out with the Umrah Packages UK.

You can take any of the two, air route or sea route for reaching for Hajj. Depending on your country location and your Hajj travel package, the charges may vary for the Hajj. For some countries, it is too high, whereas for the others it is too low. The best suggestion which we would like to give to all the people who are planning to go for Hajj is that book your tickets in advance. People usually start booking for Hajj for around 6 to 7 months before only. Otherwise, it becomes difficult for one to get the Hajj package at the last moment, because of the limitation on the number of visitors. If you want to have all the information related to Hajj like what all you should carry, do’s and don’ts, how many people from a family can visit, etc., then you should check the Hajj committee website.

Things to do Before Going for Hajj and Umrah

Every Muslim should go on Hajj once in their lifetime, as it is the holy pilgrimage of the Muslims. Going on Hajj is considered to be very important by Muslims. Every year, you will see lakhs of people going on Hajj from different parts of the world. People go there, pray there, and spend some time there in Mecca and Madinah. If you are also planning to go on Hajj, there are a few things which you should be aware of before going on hajj. There are a few things which every Muslim should do in advance when going for Hajj and Umrah. Not every Muslim is aware of these things and sometimes people forget doing these things, so we are sharing that here.

Book tickets in advance

There is a particular time every year when the Hajj tour starts. However, as Mecca Madinah is said to be the holy pilgrimage, some people visit there any time of the year. If you are planning to visit Mecca Madinah you need to decide in advance when you will be visiting there. If you are planning to visit when the Hajj tour starts during the particular time of the year, we suggest you book your tickets in advance. As there is a huge rush during that time, and flight tickets and hotel rooms get booked around six to seven months before only. That is why it is suggested to plan for Hajj and umrah 2020 in advance only. Otherwise, you will not be able to get the tickets for Hajj and Umrah Tour.

Clear all your debts before you go on Hajj

This is one of the most important things which every Muslim should remember. Until and unless they have not paid all the debts, they should not go on Hajj. It is not considered good to go on Hajj after borrowing money. So, check and ensure that you have cleared all your debts before you start planning for the Hajj and Umrah. Even it is also said that one should do Hajj from their own money unless and until they do not fall in the category of dependants. Like for a child or an old man, it might not be possible to go on Hajj using their own money.

Get all the medical check-ups done

Hajj is not just a one- or two-day tour. It takes time, and meanwhile, you will have to stay there. That is why it is always suggested that people who are going on Hajj, should get their medical check-up done. They should not be facing any medical issues or medical problems which do not allow them to go on Hajj. Also, it is suggested that people should get all the vaccinations done before they go on Hajj. In case, you are planning to go on Hajj, get the vaccinations done. If you are going with your family, ensure they all have got the vaccination. This will help in keeping you and your family away from any kind of diseases or health issues.
