My mother is one of the pilgrims from Jhenidah, Bangladesh heading to Makkah on 7th November 2010. I wish her sound journey, successful tour and safe return. may Allah bless all the pilgrims from all parts of the world. May Allah give us redemption of both dead and alive through the prayers of those hajj pilgrims who aimed to perform Hajj this year.

Three or four star standard houses or hotels with increased facilities compared to anytime in the past have been rented in advance in Makkah and Madinah for the hajj pilgrims under government management.
A 94-member medical team has been formed for 94,000 hajj pilgrims with a ratio of one physician for 1,000 pilgrims to increase the standard of service to sick pilgrims in Saudi Arabia. This year arrangement has been made for the first time to allow all hajj pilgrims to transmit urgent information through SMS.
