UAE organises Hajj workshop

The UAE General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments (Awqaf) has organised a workshop for accredited Hajj and umrah contractors during which it discussed last year’s Hajj season and then addressed the procedures planned for the 2018 season. 

Topics discussed included the mechanism of merging Hajj campaigns, the quota set for each operator, campaign activities, and registration logistics. HE Dr Mohammed Matar al Kaabi, Awqaf’s Chairman, discussed Hajj packages for this year’s season, as well as the services and the support by the UAE leadership. Dr al Kaabi further underlined the need for the operators to ensure excellence in service delivery.

Staff concerned with the Hajj affairs at Awqaf and heads of the Hajj campaigns attended the event.
