Muslim Pro, the world’s leading Muslim lifestyle app with over 170 million downloads, has partnered with Umrahme, a NUSUK-accredited platform, to launch a new feature enabling users to personalise their Umrah journey digitally.
This innovative feature marks a significant shift for Asia Pacific Muslims who have traditionally relied on physical travel agents for Umrah planning, often requiring extensive time and resources.
Now, through the Muslim Pro app, users can choose between guided group tours or a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach that aligns with their specific needs and preferences.
This tech-forward Umrah feature arrives at a time when digital solutions are transforming how Muslims approach pilgrimage. In 2023, over 26 million pilgrims performed Umrah, with many turning to technology for seamless travel planning.
As DIY Umrah continues to gain traction globally, Muslim Pro provides a secure and accessible option, appealing particularly to tech-savvy younger generations who prefer to manage their own journeys.
This new feature aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which emphasises digital innovation to make religious journeys more accessible.
By facilitating direct, secure bookings and customisable planning options, Muslim Pro and Umrahme contribute to Vision 2030’s objective to position Saudi Arabia as a global hub for religious and cultural experiences.
Mohammed M.S Binmahfouz, co-founder and CEO of Umrahme, shared his perspective: “Our partnership with Muslim Pro represents a revolutionary approach to Umrah planning. By leveraging digital technology, we’re enriching the experience for pilgrims, allowing them to focus more on spiritual fulfilment and less on logistical challenges.”
Key Features
- Customisable Packages: Pilgrims can plan all aspects of their journey, from accommodations to sacred site visits in Makkah and Madinah, with additional options like visa bookings and transport to be added soon;
- Direct, Secure Bookings: The app offers instant Umrah bookings, enabling complete autonomy and peace of mind for users, eliminating the need for traditional agency visits.
“We aim to make Umrah planning as seamless and secure as possible,” said Nafees Khundker, Group Managing Director and CEO at Muslim Pro. “Through this digital solution, millions of Muslims worldwide can now embark on their spiritual journey with ease, focusing fully on the meaning of their pilgrimage.”
