About 50 days are left before the largest congregation of Muslims, yet an uncertainty looms over Hajj this year in Saudi Arabia because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The decision is yet to be taken for Hajj scheduled to be performed by millions of Muslims in late July this year.

“There’s no certainty over Hajj this year as the government of Saudi Arabia is yet to take the final decision in this regard,” State Minister for Religious Affairs Advocate Sheikh Abdullah said.

However, we’re maintaining constant communication with the Saudi government, he said adding that Bangladesh will know as soon as there’s any decision.

“Coronavirus situation is not well in Saudi Arabia. Hajj depends on the situation,” he added.
