Hajj pilgrims are being given proper guidance in 23 major international languages around the clock at the Grand Mosque in Makkah.

The second is temporal guidance, which is related to answering questions and inquiries related to the timing of prayers, the dates of visits, lectures and religious classes, and delivery of schedules of classes and lectures. The third aspect is cultural guidance: This is represented by answering questions and inquiries of those pilgrims who want to take advantage of the cultural, scientific and historical aspects related to the Grand Mosque in their own language.
