Algerian commends excellent services


(MENAFN- Arab News) This is Algerian pilgrim Mohammed Jamal's 14th visit to the Kingdom.
He first came to the Kingdom in 1999. Since then he has performed Haj three times and Umrah 10 times.
Jamal expressed his delight at performing the minor pilgrimage for the 11th time.
He praised the efforts of the Saudi leadership in providing best possible services to the pilgrims and visitors to the holy cities.
'When I came to perform Umrah in the past I would watch with my own two eyes the massive expansion work at the Grand Mosque in Makkah and Madinah' he said. 'In my subsequent trips I saw those projects being completed adding an element of grandeur to the Two Holy Mosques. The Saudi leadership deserves praise for doing all these in the service of pilgrims.'
Jamal underlined the strong ties that exist between Saudi Arabia and Algeria.
'Algerian people harbor nothing but immense love and respect for Saudi Arabia and the very hospitable Saudi people' he said.
About his visit to Madinah he said: 'The highlight of being in Madinah is the visit to the Prophet's Mosque. It is a wonderful feeling.'
Jamal visited the historical and archaeological sites in the holy city 'including the most prominent site where the Battle of Uhud took place.'
'I visited Quba Mosque and also prayed at other historic mosques' he said. 'I also went to see the well belonging to Caliph Othman bin Affan.'
According to him the latest Umrah trip cost him SR6000.
