Kuwait City : With the Hajj season approaching, the overall picture for Hajj expedition offices and residents interested in performing the Hajj ritual remains hazy. Last Thursday's meeting between the Union of Hajj Expedition Offices and the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs, Eng. Fareed Emadi, yielded no results. The ministry instructed the offices to postpone pilgrim registration until the value of the camp prices in the holy sites was determined by the relevant Saudi Arabian authorities.According to an informed source, the ministry alerted the Hajj expedition offices about the need to abide by the circular that was issued earlier, which instructed not to start registering the pilgrims for the current season until the completion of distributing the “quota” to the expedition offices and the setting of prices, which the ministry believes should start from KD 1,500 in order to enable people with limited income to perform the rituals. He explained that the meeting of the undersecretary with the union resulted in a commitment not to announce the opening of the registration of pilgrims and the prices set for this year until the cost of the camps in the holy sites is known, provided that the expedition offices then submit the prices based on them, and these prices will be referred to the price control and approval committee.
