"For this year, we are already seeing enthusiasm from people wanting to perform Umrah, with 29,000 pilgrims registered so far, even though the new season has just begun," Idris added during a send-off ceremony for Umrah pilgrims in Sepang. She noted that the rising number of registrations is driven by increased public awareness regarding the significance of performing Umrah, coupled with a variety of packages designed to suit different financial capacities.

Idris also observed a shift in the trend of Umrah pilgrims, with a growing number of young individuals, entrepreneurs, and families choosing the pilgrimage for spiritual fulfillment. Previously, Umrah was predominantly seen as an option for the elderly. "Umrah is no longer just for the elderly, but has become a choice for entrepreneurs, young people, and families as a form of journey that combines worship, self-reflection, and strengthening family ties," she explained. Andalusia aims to ensure pilgrims can focus on their worship while the company manages all travel arrangements efficiently.
