Kenyan Muslims planning to travel for next year's Hajj have been cautioned against using brokers and unregistered travel agencies.
The Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims (SUPKEM) announced that going forward, it will be the sole body responsible for handling all travel documentation and logistics for Muslims intending to perform the Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca.
Speaking during a planning meeting, SUPKEM officials emphasised that the council is the only legally mandated institution to coordinate the Hajj journey and warned that any individuals or agencies operating outside this framework will be treated as unlawful.
SUPKEM Chairperson Hassan Ole Naado said, "Apart from identification and listing, we are also working on a code of conduct which every entity and individual involved will be required to sign.
