Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, Shaykh Salih, as we live in these blessed days and pilgrims are flocking to these sacred places and these good sites, and this blessed land, under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah preserve him), his Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince's heir, has prepared these blessed atmospheres and this abundant security for them so that they can perform this obligation with ease and simplicity and return to their homelands. Perhaps you have a word to say about that?
Answer:
What has Allah honored the rulers of this land with, may Allah guide them? This is a great favor. Praise be to Allah.
It is the preparation for Hajj for the people by providing security, providing food and drink, providing housing, and other things they need. This is what Allah has honored this blessed state with in its undertaking of Hajj and the works of Hajj and the pilgrims and those performing 'Umrah. It prepares for them the circumstances and capabilities by which they perform these great acts of worship in this great place. This is among the greatest blessings for them and for the Muslims. So it is a great favor and a great honor for this blessed state that it attends to the affairs of the pilgrims and those performing 'Umrah with everything their needs and interests require. So Allah has honored it with this great work for which it must be thanked after thanking Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
