This time Hajj is limited, foreigners will not be allowed



 Due to the global epidemic of coronavirus, the Saudi government has decided to hold a limited Hajj this year.  Due to this decision, no foreigner can go for Hajj this time. Only those living in Saudi Arabia will be able to take part in this year's Hajj, the government said yesterday.


 A statement from the Saudi Press Agency quoted the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah as saying, "Coronavirus infections are on the rise around the world. No vaccines or antidotes have been released so far. It is difficult to maintain social distance between millions of pilgrims from around the world."  That is why this Hajj will be held with a limited number of Saudi nationals and Muslims from different countries who are currently living in Saudi Arabia. " Due to the decision of the Saudi government, no foreigner is able to go for Hajj this time.


 Last year, about 2.5 million people around the world performed the Hajj.  But this time around, due to the global spread of the coronavirus Covid-19, several Muslim and non-Muslim countries have said they will not send pilgrims.  Singapore was the first to announce the cancellation of the Hajj, followed by Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia, Brunei and South Africa. Of these seven countries, Indonesia has the highest Muslim population.  The total quota of these seven countries for performing Hajj is 420,000, which is 20 percent of the total number of Muslim citizens performing Hajj.


 Riyadh stopped performing Umrah last March after a corona patient was identified in Saudi Arabia.  At the same time, the pilgrimage to Kabash Sharif was stopped; However, later on, keeping a social distance, visiting the house of God in a short council was allowed.

Is friendship with Russia the reason for Imran's downfall?

  In Parliament, 184 votes were cast in favor of the motion of no-confidence by the MPs representing the parties opposed to the Imran Khan-led government and 110 votes were cast against it.  162 votes were enough to enforce the no-confidence motion .  Imran Khan has been claiming that a conspiracy to oust him was hatched by the White House because of his independent foreign policy.  According to him, he was the victim of an unwritten agreement between the opposition and the US government.  In the eyes of the US government and some of its regional allies, Imran Khan became a disobedient government contrary to their expectations!  Washington was outraged when Imran turned down offers to allow US forces to use some of Pakistan's military bases, and visited Russia after the start of the Ukraine war.  No other government has dared to adopt the kind of independent policy that Imran has adopted, especially closer to China and Russia.  Since taking office...

What doing now Muslim Communities?

Mohammad Ghori Shah  #What Iran has done so far against Israel is heroic, on the other hand, the behavior of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey is cowardly. The current time is very important and dangerous. If Muslim countries cannot unite at this time, they will be humiliated by Israel and America one after another. On the other hand, if they support Iran simultaneously, the roar of Israel and America will be erased from history forever. Not only that, if the anti-imperialist forces can also unite at this time, the chapter of history is bound to change in the same way. Everything is just a possibility. However, the behavior of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey has disappointed ordinary Muslims.
