Hajj Registration Is Open For Hajj 2024
السلام عليكم
Asallamu alaikum my Canadian Muslim community
Are you planning to perform Hajj this year from Canada?
Did you know “Labayk Hajj” has provided services over 300 Canadian Muslims pilgrims in Hajj 2023 to book & perform hajj successfully?
Indeed, this represents approximately 25% of the Canadian Hajj quota.
This upcoming Hajj, we will be offering our service for Canadian Muslims through a partnership with an esteemed Saudi Hajj operator/service provider, aligned with the new guidelines and processes of the Ministry of Hajj.
Our licensed partnership with the Saudi company will guarantee a secure Hajj by the will of our Creator. With the support of a logistics team and top-tier Canadian Imams, ensuring your guided Hajj safe, comfortable, and free of confusion during the performance of your rituals.
Is it mandatory to submit a Hajj application exclusively through Nusuk?
Yes, every applicant must process their application through Nusuk, but this point is often misunderstood. The reality is that Hajj applications must be submitted through Nusuk, and anyone, including family members, friends, or experts in Nusuk such as the Labayk Hajj team, can handle the application. The success of the Hajj application depends on correct processing according to the Nusuk System, regardless of who applies, manages, or pays for it.
Does Nusuk care about who is behind the keyboard processing or typing your Hajj application?
Not at all. Nusuk is an electronic system, and the important aspect is following the process correctly, regardless of who is behind the scenes processing the application.
Registration Techniques for Hajj 2024:
1. First Approach (Smart technique):
- Registering with Labaykhajj.
- Labaykhajj will book the desired Hajj package completely on your behalf, through our expert team in Nusuk B2C system.
- No booking fee required.
- Our service is offered only for:
- A. Canadian Regular passport holders.
- B. Other national’s passport holders with Canadian Permanent Resident Card.
- Our service is on a first come, first served basis.
2. Second Approach (Self- independent technique):
- Registering yourself in the Nusuk system, and completing all steps, which can be tremendously challenging, overwhelming and time consuming
Comparison between the Hajj registration techniques:
- First technique:
- Smart, secure and hassle-free booking, that will allow the applicant to relax and be served by an expert team in the B2C system.
- Payment will be processed and handled by our team in Saudi Arabia, in order to ensure accuracy, efficiency, time sensitivity and a successful outcome.
- The Nusuk system does not allowed same passport to be registered more than once, therefor if you want us to register you, you must not have an account or delete your account with Nusuk if you have one.
- Second technique:
- The applicant will be chasing and filtering the Hajj information and updates from countless sources, social media platforms (WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) which has proven to have many fakes, untrustworthy sources and rumours.
- Additionally, the booking and payment process can be enormously challenging and frustrating for a regular applicant which can result in an applicant not being able to book a Hajj package successfully.
Be smart and select the secured smart technique for a better outcome
