Paragraph 2
The Saudi Ministry of Hajj announced it was
limiting the number of pilgrims allowed to enter the
site this year. Officials said they wanted to avoid any
of COVID-19 and lower the
of infection. Many Muslim-
countries have cancelled pilgrimages to Mecca. This means Mecca will get a tiny
of the two million Hajj pilgrims it usually receives. This year, just a few
Saudi Arabian citizens can attend. The news did not upset twenty-two-time
Wafa Shaheen. She said: "I know there are
of ways to take advantage of this
spiritual time."
