Today, Thursday, the Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs announced that the cost of Hajj this year is 3,246 Jordanian dinars per person, compared to 2,787 Jordanian dinars last year.

The Ministry conducted the Hajj lottery for the northern governorates for the year 1444 AH / 2023 AD, as the number of pilgrims accepted for the current season reached about 3,200, while the number of registered pilgrims for the lottery exceeded 30,000 citizens.

The Minister of Endowments, Hatem Al-Bakri, affirmed that the ministry is making every effort to provide the best services to the pilgrims of the Sacred House of God among the Palestinian people, at the level of the nature of the services, and at the level of prices, whether with regard to internal and external transportation or housing within Medina and Makkah Al-Mukarramah, or services in Sacred Feelings.

He added, "The Ministry has taken a new step with regard to accommodation for pilgrims, based on the desire of citizens to obtain more services, provided that accommodation for Hajj in Medina remains in five-star hotels for all pilgrims, as is the case in previous seasons."

As for the accommodation of pilgrims in Makkah Al-Mukarramah, it will be on three levels as follows:

The first level: the regular pilgrimage, according to the four-room accommodation system, with what used to be the separation between males and females in rented hotels, with the provision of breakfast, with a fee of 3246 Jordanian dinars.

The second level: the two-housing system (the pilgrim and his Mahram), as a privacy for those pilgrims who wish as a special service in the hotel, with a fee of 4066 Jordanian dinars.

The third level: a special double with breakfast and a buffet dinner, for the second accommodation system (the pilgrim and his wife) in a five-star hotel (Hilton Jabal Omar), with a fee of 5413 Jordanian dinars.
