    In a poignant moment of spiritual significance, the first groups of Umrah pilgrims departed from Iran to Saudi Arabia on Monday morning, marking the resumption of this revered journey after a hiatus of nine years. The departure, witnessed across various airports in Iran, signifies a significant milestone for pilgrims eager to embark on this sacred expedition to the holiest city for Muslims, Mecca.

    Within the span of ten days, a total of 2,860 pilgrims from 11 airports throughout Iran, along with an additional 2,860 pilgrims from Imam Khomeini Airport, are scheduled to be transferred to Saudi Arabia to fulfill their spiritual obligations through Umrah. The Umrah pilgrimage holds profound significance within Islam, as it allows adherents to undertake a voluntary journey to the sacred Kaaba in Mecca, seeking spiritual purification and closeness to Allah.

    Unlike the Hajj pilgrimage, which has specific dates according to the Islamic lunar calendar, Umrah can be performed at any time of the year, making it accessible to Muslims from diverse backgrounds and geographic locations. It is considered a minor pilgrimage in comparison to Hajj, yet holds immense importance as a means for believers to express their devotion, seek forgiveness, and offer prayers to Allah.

    Reflecting on the spiritual significance of Umrah, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) once remarked, “The pilgrims of Hajj and Umrah are the guests of Allah. They visited His home on His call, therefore Allah will grant them what they ask for.” This profound statement encapsulates the reverence and significance attached to the pilgrimage, as pilgrims journey to the sacred sites with a sense of humility, seeking divine blessings and spiritual fulfillment.

    For the pilgrims departing from Iran, this momentous occasion marks a long-awaited opportunity to partake in a journey of spiritual renewal and devotion. After nearly a decade-long hiatus, the resumption of Umrah pilgrimage from Iran to Saudi Arabia represents a significant step towards fostering greater connectivity and cooperation among Muslim communities worldwide.

    As the Umrah pilgrimage recommences, it serves as a reminder of the enduring faith and resilience of believers, transcending geographical boundaries and cultural differences in pursuit of spiritual enlightenment and divine grace. With each pilgrim embarking on this sacred journey, the spirit of unity and devotion is reignited, reaffirming the timeless bond that unites the global Muslim ummah in faith and worship.
