He said the first group of pilgrims are currently on their way to the train station to travel to Mecca and begin their Hajj pilgrimage.
Stating that the practices at the Shajarah Mosque are one of the spiritual peaks of Hajj, he noted: the Ihram program at the Shajarah Mosque is one of the most important part of Hajj rituals. If we were to name the main highlights of Hajj, Ihram at the Shajarah Mosque, standing at Arafat, the acts of Mina, and the programs at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's (PBUH) shrine are among the highlights of Hajj.

This year, a new record has been set in terms of reducing the number of Hajj administrative staff. Hajj and pilgrimage officials are trying to pave the way for an increase in the number of pilgrims by reducing the number of administrative staff; therefore, they have endured greater hardships and difficulties in order to provide better conditions for pilgrims.
Hojjat al-Islam Navvab continued: as the Supreme Leader has been said, Ihram and Miqat have profound secrets and symbols.
At the end, he called pilgrims to pray for all those inside the country who are eagerly awaiting, such an opportunity will soon be provided and they can visit the House of God.
