Iraq prime minister performs Umrah during Saudi Arabia visit

 

Mustafa Al Kadhami performed the pilgrimage after meeting officials in a bid to boost bilateral ties

 

Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al Kadhimi on Thursday performed the Umrah pilgrimage in Makkah during his first official visit to Saudi Arabia.

Umrah is a pilgrimage to Islam’s two holiest sites that can be undertaken at any time of year.

“Upon his arrival at the Grand Mosque, he was received by a number of officials of the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque and the Special Force for the Security of the Grand Mosque,” Saudi Arabia’s press agency said.

 

Mr Al Kadhimi, who was seen wearing the Ihram garment, a single long white robe, along with his delegation was welcomed to Makkah by the governor of the city, Prince Khalid Al Faisal.

The Iraqi official began his visit to the kingdom on Wednesday where he was received at Riyadh’s international airport by Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Iraq and Saudi Arabia agreed to set up a $3bn fund to boost the private sector in Iraq.

Saudi Arabia suspended Umrah in March last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

When it resumed in October, limited numbers of people were allowed to take part each day – booked through a government app – and strict social distancing measures were brought in.
