In a powerful demonstration of Saudi Arabia’s commitment to enhancing the Hajj and Umrah experience, the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has launched the Two Holy Mosques and Nusuk Exhibition in London. This significant event was held in collaboration with the General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque, along with the Pilgrim Experience Program.
Timed with the official visit of His Excellency Dr. Tawfig Al-Rabiah, Minister of Hajj and Umrah, to the United Kingdom, the exhibition served as a cultural and educational bridge between the Kingdom and the British Muslim community.
The exhibition showcased the historical evolution and architectural development of Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and Al-Masjid an-Nabawi in Madinah, spanning more than a hundred years. It also emphasized Saudi Arabia’s ongoing efforts in expanding facilities and enhancing services for pilgrims. A key highlight was the Nusuk digital platform, which revolutionizes the pilgrimage experience by offering user-friendly services in over 20 languages—simplifying everything from visa applications to booking religious experiences.

The exhibition received an enthusiastic response from attendees, reflecting widespread appreciation for Saudi Arabia’s forward-thinking initiatives.

By bringing this exhibition to the UK, the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah reaffirmed its mission to share the sacred heritage of Islam while promoting digital innovation in serving millions of pilgrims around the world.
