Dr. Hussein Kim Dong Eok
President of Korea Muslim Federation
Dear Muslim Brothers and Sisters,
May the blessings of almighty Allah S.W.T. be upon you.
Due to COVID19, our daily life, which was uncomfortable for a long time, has been restored and it is fortunate that joint worship can be held again.
KMF was approved as a religious institution that performs Hajj and Umra in Korea by the Hajj Province of Saudi Arabia on December 2019. KMF Hajj and Umura Travel Agency Co., Ltd. was established on January 25, 2022, to provide convenience for Muslim communities in Korea to perform pilgrimages to holy places efficiently and economically.
Ministry of Hajj and Umra of the Saudi Arabia’s Kingdom provided the convenience for 500 people in Korea to successfully perform the Hajj as the 1443H (2022) pilgrimage was limited to 1 million people.
In 1444H (2023), Saudi Arabia has a policy of normalizing the pilgrimage to the post-coronavirus level. The Muslim community in Korea (KMF) will do its best so that a lot of Muslim brothers and sisters can make the pilgrimage as possible. I will pray to Allah S.W.T. that many Muslim brothers and sisters will fulfill the fifth pillars of Islam.
