Hajj 2026 Registration Now Open: Secure Your Spot with the FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board
The countdown to Hajj 2026 has officially begun! Excitement is building as the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board has opened its registration for the highly anticipated pilgrimage. This momentous event, which attracts millions of Muslims from around the globe, is a crucial aspect of Islamic faith, allowing faithful believers to perform one of their religious obligations.
Kadiri Edah, the Director of the FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board, has shared the essential details for those eager to embark on this spiritual journey. To secure a place for the 2026 Hajj, intending pilgrims will need to make a minimum deposit of N8,500,000. This fee highlights the commitment required for pilgrimage and ensures that arrangements provide the best experience for all participants.
For a seamless registration process, applicants are required to submit a bank draft from any commercial bank, made payable to the “FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board, Abuja.” Edah stressed that this payment method is non-negotiable; only bank drafts will be accepted to maintain transparency and fairness within the process. And don’t forget, applicants must also provide a valid international passport to complete their registration.
It’s important for prospective pilgrims to act quickly, as the Board operates on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration deadline is set for December 2, 2025, leaving ample time for interested individuals to make their arrangements, but it’s wise to start the process early to avoid any last-minute stress.
Additionally, those who have previously deposited funds with the Board for earlier Hajj experiences should take note. If you have funds still held by the Board, it’s crucial to declare your intention to use those deposits for the 2026 pilgrimage before the registration deadline approaches.
Hajj is not only a physical journey to a sacred location; it is a profound spiritual experience. As pilgrims prepare for this defining moment, the FCT Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board remains dedicated to providing support and clarity throughout the process.
For any inquiries or assistance, interested parties can reach out to the Board through any of the six area councils in the FCT. Don’t miss the chance to be part of this incredible journey – start your preparations today!
