Saudi Government has imposed a ban on Umra of Pakistanis under the age of 40.
Are Saudis afraid of young Pakistanis immigrating to Saudi Arabia or are there genuine concerns of terrorism?
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Naah! Umra and hajj is for old people. I am against the idea of sending our youth to the Mullahtic lands.
They should rather go to the sunny beaches of Bali. This will get the creative juices going thus helping Pakistan with new ideas. 99% Arab lands are dead when it comes to brain function (1% exception is for Dubai).
So I am glad Pakistani youth will not go to the land of Toaps, demagh choos, and beards.

This is BS 
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
just another day in paradise, wonder what the saudi/wahabi lovers have to say now?
As a matter of principles, Mecca/Medina should have a independent sovereign status with all muslim countries participating in its management, maintenance and devise rules for pilgrims. Something like the Vatican, this way things would be fair, there would be no biases or complaints which cannot be heard and rectified.
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Its plain BS, its just one more reason for this monarchy to be toppled, these stupid Saudi royals are making every effort to malign Islam to save their backs.
Anti, Hajj and Umrah is for people who are young and strong, they should do this as early as possible, when they have the strength and can endure this fard, and the youngsters don’t go to Saudi Arabia to visit some clubs or the royal Saudi palace but rather they do it for their religion and obligation to Allah, which are alien concepts for a muslim like you.
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
The Vatican is nothing like what you described. No country participates in the running of Vatican city, it is a soverign dictatorship ruled by the Pope in its own right.
At any rate, whilst I disagree with this Saudi policy (obviously), it does offer an interesting solution to the stampede problems\ that lead to far too many deaths every year at Hajj time
Since Mecca, Medina, and the other locations are physically incapable of safely hosting the sheer number of people who come for Hajj every year, the saudi government should take steps to reduce the number of hajjis.
Preventing anyone under the age of 40 from any country at all (including Saudi) from doing Hajj should enhance safety for all by dramatically reducing the number of people present per year.

Astagfirullah!
stopping a muslim to perform umrah or hajj- Astagifrullah..

The entire region of the holy lands in Saudi Arabia should come under Muslim council soverign rule.
Saudis are just too stupid to be entrusted to keep the holy lands of Islam under their governance.
They are too ignorant, too stupid, and batameez towards the rest of the world.
Any muslim may go and perform the Hajj and they shouldnt need saudi permission for that

Word used was 'type' meaning something on those lines, key words were independent sovereign status. We all know Islam does not have a formal structure of papal yet current system where ONE entity decides who can enter and do what is synonymous with the vatican.
If reducing hajjis/pilgrims was the solution then it sud be applied to all states, why only Pakis? Reason being political, not logisitic management.
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Saudi Arabia has no right to do this. While they are incharge of their own pathetic country they dont control or own our religion. They have no right to stop muslims visiting the holy sites. Shame on them and disgust at their action.
I wonder when will they ban maids under 40 from entering Saudi — Oh forgot it will create unhappiness among saudi men. 
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Ehsan bhai,
well said.
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
:k: I couldn’t have said it better. After all, this is the only country named after the family(the sauds) ruling it- the family that courts America and ignores the rest of ummah cuz they dont like them.. They are particularly harsh towards poorer mulsim countries. Pakistanis are ready to ki$$ Saudi a$$es cuz they think saudis will lift them from poverty or maybe everyone in saudi is adorable and yeah, the muslim brotherhood thing.. Poor Pak/Afghans are willing to sacrifice their life for ignorant jaahil arabs. The holy land should be given to the Arab council or some other body much more responsible.

Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
^ Saudis have muslims (Pakistanis) piaar but not hate, Pakistan has more population than Saudi, if we attack them they'll be finished. We have long-range missiles that we can fire at them but the problem is Big Tind(Nawas Sharif) will also be killed :(
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
i would assume that a great number of those over 40 are typically escorted and accompanied by more physically able under-40 relatives…right?
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
US will not let that happen. They have lot of interest there. They will kick Pakistan real hard, you know where :D

Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Great ideas!
BTW, We should rename "holy lands", to "holy sands".
Re: Saudi Arabia bans Pakistanis under 40 performing Umra
Pathetic decision. The GoP should lodge huge protests.
Had the decision been for Hajj and for all nations including Saudi Arabia itself, it could have been taken seriously.

Don't forget that SA is also a colony of Uncle Sam.
