Assalaamu'alaikum everyone,
My dad wanted to know how to become an authorized Hajj/Umrah travel agent (in the UK).. does anybody know the legal processes that are involved? Any help would be appreciated.
Jazak'Allah Khairun.
If you begin to live life relating to the God who is all around you, every moment becomes a prayer.
I would also suggest that you post the same question here, which is the Hajj and Umrah section of Ummah.com forums. The Hajj and Umrah section is very active and I believe that at least one Hajj/Umrah agent participates there regularly, in answering peoples questions etc, so you may get a better chance of a helpful and relevant answer:
Stunningly beautiful adhaan from the Dome of the Rock in Masjid ul Aqsa Download (right click and choose "save target/link as").
This is a clear message for mankind in order that they may be warned thereby, and that they may know that He is only One God, and that those of understanding may take heed (14:52)
Indeed Allah knows, and you know not (16: 74, part)
I guess, as a non-Muslim country, UK doesn't have special rule for hajj travel agent.
But arrange a hajj trip is different than arrange a leisure trip, because there is quota for hajj who can come to Saudi Arabia during hajj season. If a hajj travel agent doesn't hold this quota, their customers will not get hajj visa. But there is no quota for umrah
Your dad can contact Saudy Embassy in London (30 Charles Street, W1J 5DZ - Tel: +44 (0)20 7917 3000) to get information about how to become an authorized Hajj/Umrah travel agent in the UK, and get hajj quota. They have consular service for hajj and umrah.
