The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’ program meets the desire of those who have never performed Hajj rituals before and the newly converted to Islam to perform the rituals of the 5th pillar of Islam by hosting a number of Muslims, as an act of charity, facilitate their knowledge of the Islamic moderate approach, deepen the sense of the spirit of Islamic brotherhood and sharpen the faith into the hearts of the new Muslims and Muslim minorities in addition to development of the hosted pilgrims' preaching and scholarly skills. The total number of beneficiaries of the program since its inception in 1417 AH amounted to more than 24,000 male and female Muslims from different countries of the world, as well as 13,000 male and female pilgrims from the families of Palestine's martyrs. --SPA 13:00 LOCAL TIME 10:00 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
