Our Manasikuna application provides a set of services for pilgrims and Umrah visitors to the Sacred House of God in seven international languages, by introducing them to the times of crowding, the movement of buses, the stoning of the Jamarat, and the times of going to the Haram to perform the prayer.
The application also enables the pilgrims to communicate with the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah directly through the suggestions and observations form, supported by the feature of adding photos. This is in order to overcome the difficulties that he encounters during the performance of the obligatory prayer, and it also helps to determine the current location of the “hajj” or “Umrah performer” user in the areas: the Great Mosque of Mecca, the Prophet’s Mosque, and the holy sites “Arafah, Muzdalifah, and Mina.”
It also contributes to knowing the direction and distance between the user's current location and each of the above-mentioned sites. The Manasikna application also contains the important numbers that the pilgrim needs, in addition to the emergency numbers.
The application contains the service of receiving awareness and guidance messages sent by the Ministry and in the language that the pilgrim uses in the application. The application also provides pilgrims with prayer times, determining the direction of the qiblah, identifying nearby mosques, weather conditions, currency exchange, and others.
Our Manasikuna application includes maps of Makkah, the holy sites, Madinah and Jeddah, which contain a wide range of sites of interest to the pilgrim during his journey.
