The Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency (KSPWA) has launched a mandatory education programme for its registered pilgrims.
The programme aims to guide them in performing Hajj rites according to Islamic principles.
“This comprehensive programme is held every Saturday and Sunday across all 23 local government areas and is crucial for all registered pilgrims,” said Yunusa Muhammad Abdullahi, Public Relations Officer of the agency in a statement on Sunday.
In the statement, Malam Salihu S. Abubakar, executive chairman of the agency, emphasised the programme’s purpose, which included equipping the pilgrims with the necessary knowledge to ensure a confident, informed, and peaceful Hajj experience.
He added that experienced Islamic scholars will guide participants through the spiritual aspects of Hajj, including rituals, their significance, and proper conduct.
He said the agency staff and stakeholders will provide crucial operational information on travel procedures, luggage restrictions, permitted items, and available support services.
Malam Salihu further stressed that, “Hajj is not a pleasure trip, but a spiritual journey seeking divine reward.”
