Thai praise for the "Guests of the Two Holy Mosques Program" for serving Muslims
Mohammed Narousa, Vice President of the Peace Charity Association in Bangkok, Thailand, expressed his deep appreciation and profound emotion at participating in the Custodian of Mosques' Guests Program for Hajj, Umrah, and Visitation, implemented by the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah and Guidance. Narousa described his arrival in Madinah as an exceptional spiritual experience, fulfilling years of longing to visit the Prophet's Mosque (peace and blessings be upon him) and pray there. He emphasized that this initiative embodies the noble mission of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in serving Islam and Muslims worldwide.
Narousa's feelings were not spontaneous, but rather a reflection of a comprehensive experience that began from his departure from his country until his arrival in the Holy Land. He emphasized that the program was not merely an initiative to host pilgrims, but a complete journey designed to leave a profound spiritual impact on participants from around the world. He praised the exceptional care, meticulous organization, and integrated services he received from the moment he arrived in the Kingdom.
A royal initiative to strengthen Islamic ties
The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques' Guests Program is one of the most prominent royal initiatives launched during the reign of King Fahd bin Abdulaziz – may God have mercy on him – and has continued and expanded under the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. The program aims to host thousands of Muslims annually from around the world to perform Hajj and Umrah, with a focus on prominent Islamic figures, academics, influencers, and the families of martyrs and those injured in action from various countries, particularly those with Muslim minorities. This initiative seeks to strengthen the bonds of Islamic brotherhood, deepen communication among Muslims worldwide, and showcase the true image of moderate and tolerant Islam.
A living testament to the Kingdom's efforts within the "Guests of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Program"
Narousa noted that all stages of the journey were characterized by meticulous attention and continuous care, providing pilgrims with an atmosphere of tranquility and peace to perform their rituals with ease. He added that the services, facilities, and meticulous organization he witnessed reflect the magnitude of the efforts exerted by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman – may God protect them – in serving the guests of God and caring for pilgrims and visitors from all over the world. He explained that the Kingdom does not merely provide logistical and organizational services, but rather presents a comprehensive global model for pilgrim care, combining quality, humanity, and a commitment to their comfort.
An unforgettable spiritual experience
Upon arriving in Medina, Narousa said, “I cannot describe the emotions that overwhelmed me upon entering the Prophet’s Mosque. Tears of joy and emotion welled up in my eyes, and I felt immense peace as I prayed in this blessed place, a place I had always longed to reach.” He added that the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’ Guests Program, by the grace of God, contributed to creating a complete spiritual environment that enabled them to dedicate themselves to worship, remembrance, and supplication, free from any hardship or difficulty. This made their Hajj experience more profound and impactful. In closing, Mohammed Narousa expressed his gratitude and appreciation to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah and Guidance, and all the staff and volunteers in the program, asking God to reward them abundantly for their tremendous efforts in serving the pilgrims and reinforcing the Kingdom’s humanitarian and Islamic message.
