Mbona unajikanganya hapo!!!--- Mahujaji sio mtalii, kama mtu atakwenda kwa ajili ya utalii baada ya kufanya Hijja huyo anapaswa alipe hiyo kodi ya utalii na hilo sio kosa, tofautisha kati ya utalii na Hijja.
Lowassa alisema elimu, elimu, elimu nu tatizo la wa Tanzania. Kweli alikuwa sahihi
Embu bishana kwa fact kwamba serikali ya saudi arabia haipati mapato ama faida za kipesa kupitia Hija.. kama dini ni ya Mungu na Hijja sio biashara kwa nini wanachaji watu pesa nyingi kwenda kuhiji? Why nchi ya saudi arabia ipate mapato ya watu wa Mungu. Serikali ya Saudi inakusanya mapato ya watalii wanaokuja Hijja kisha inanunua silaha na kuua waislamu wenzenu yemen, syria , kashoggi etc

Pilgrimage is essential to Saudi Arabia’s economy and worth $12 billion annually. Currently, it makes up 20 percent of Saudi Arabia’s non-oil GDP, and is only expected to grow with the rise of more luxury hotels around the holy mosque.
Hajj pilgrims are also required to buy a Hajj package ranging anywhere from $1,000 to $20,000 or higher depending on hajj fees, accommodations, distance and the like.
Hajj packages used to cost three to four thousand dollars only five years ago,” says Issam Qaddoura from Canada.
“Now they cost at least $10,000. A flight from my city to Jeddah only costs a $1,000. Why is it so expensive? It would be cheaper to go on my own, but I can’t. Something is wrong with the pricing.
In late April 2019, Libya’s most prominent Muslim Sunni cleric, Grand Mufti Sadiq al Ghariani, called for all Muslims to boycott the Hajj—the obligatory pilgrimage of Muslims to Mecca.
In a minority view, he claimed that anyone who carried out a second pilgrimage was doing “an act of sin rather than a good deed”.
The reasoning was simple. Saudi Arabia’s economy supplies arms and militarily attacks Yemen, and is indirectly implicated in Syria, Libya, Sudan, and Iraq.
Ghariani emphasised that investing in the Hajj would “help Saudi rulers to carry out crimes against our fellow Muslims”.
But Ghariani isn’t the only cleric who’s taken a stance against the Hajj. Yusuf al Qaradawi, one of the most prominent and highly acclaimed Sunni scholars and a vocal critic of Saudi Arabia, made a fatwa in August 2018 which called for consciousness towards spending on the pilgrimage.
Saudi Arabia’s King holds the honorary title of ‘Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques’, handed down for generations. In today’s times, some pilgrims see the title as less than honorary, and more an iron grip on profit at the expense of religious legitimacy.
