Abstract
No country in the world can spend more than 100 billion riyals to build infrastructure, create a city full of services, government facilities, hospitals, a network of connections, roads and tunnels to operate for only one week each year and then shut down only the Kingdom; In order to serve pilgrims and guests of the House of Allah.The service of Hajj is not a political or media manifestation taken by the government in order to win the satisfaction of international organizations, but it is a doctrine that believes in and implements it on the ground, without any intention. The offer has been generously honored since the establishment of this state by its founder King Abdulaziz - may God rest his soul.It may not be known that the fees for the services of the heads of the communities from the tents in Mina, their transportation and their services, 40 years ago fixed prices did not rise, despite the demand of these institutions to increase prices, but the State decided not to load pilgrims coming from abroad any increase in prices, Hajj no more than 1029 riyals, the wages of tents in Mina and Arafat and the movements in Mecca and Madinah, despite the past years of instability in oil prices and the decline in the income of the Kingdom, which depends heavily on its revenues.The Government of Saudi Arabia pays great attention to pilgrims abroad, and gives them all facilities and preference in service, even pilgrims of citizens and residents do not receive these services and facilities 85% of the camps of Mona and Arafat, all for pilgrims abroad, and the rest are for pilgrims inside, Of the advantage of receiving them in a specialized city for pilgrims at Jeddah airport, and does not enjoy the low fees paid by pilgrims abroad, the cost of pilgrimage for Saudis and expatriates exceeds the prices of pilgrims abroad hundreds of times, so as not to cause pilgrims inside the harassment of those coming from abroad, And sanctioned those who violate these regulations, including: the non-Hajj only with the permission of government agencies, and included sanctions expulsion from the country to the residents of violators and imprisonment and the financial fine of citizens.A fully functioning civilized city can only be established for a week. They are equipped with 200 thousand security men, with all their security equipment and the highest training. They do not get any fees from the pilgrims, or impose taxes or refunds to them when they leave.What is striking is that the Saudi government has paid a month's reward to the Hajj employees of the security forces, all in order for pilgrims to enjoy safety and security while they are in Makkah, Madinah and in pilgrimage sites.
