My wife and me are fortunate to have selected Iqra Travels for our Hajj Pilgrimage. Honestly saying about the services rendered by Iqra management was really good. Excellent. Everything was in place as promised by Jazeem Haji at our initial meeting in the Iqra Office.
Accommodation , food, transport arrangements , Guidance at every important location was very good.
Mazeer Moulavi should be mentioned specially for his services and communication. Thanks. All in all it’s highly appreciated and could be very well recommended to any person who wants to perform Hajj or Umrah with Iqra travels.
Big Thank you to Iqra Travels Management and staff for all the services rendered to make us comfortable during our Hajj Pilgrimage. Thanks.
We performed Hajj with Iqra Travels and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The service was excellent from start to finish. All the hotels were conveniently close by, making everything much easier during the busy days.
The food was very good, and every meal was well-prepared. The group members were all wonderful—very helpful and supportive, creating a lovely atmosphere throughout the journey.
Buses and transport were always on time and perfectly organized, saving us so much stress. The Moulavi explained every step very nicely and ensured we understood everything we needed to know in the best possible way. Both he and the leaders of the group were extremely friendly and genuinely took care of all of us like family.
Highly recommend Iqra Travels to anyone planning their Hajj. May Allah reward them for their efforts!
Alhamdulillah for an unforgettable Hajj experience.
Endless gratitude to the organizers, volunteers, and authorities who worked day and night to serve the guests of Allah. Your dedication, compassion, and tireless efforts did not go unnoticed.
May Allah reward you all immensely and accept your service as a form of worship.
Alhamdulillah, by the grace of Allah, my parents, younger brother, and I had the blessed opportunity to perform Hajj this year (2025) with Iqra Travels. We are deeply grateful for their exceptional service and care throughout the journey.
The spiritual guidance from the Moulavi was clear, inspiring, and invaluable in helping us perform each ritual with confidence. His additional bayan sessions left a lasting impact on our hearts.
The IQRA team – especially Jazeem Haji, Nabavi Haji, and Furqan Haji – provided outstanding support with genuine care and professionalism. Their years of experience truly shone through.
Our accommodations in both Makkah and Madinah were excellent. Staying in hotels right in front of the Sacred Mosques allowed us to maximize our time for worship and perform more amals than we had even hoped for. Alhamdulillah!
JazakAllah Khair to the entire team. We felt spiritually fulfilled and are extremely satisfied with the experience. We look forward to traveling with Iqra Travels again, Insha Allah, and highly recommend them to others, Insha Allah.
Hajj with Iqra Travels was a truly transformative experience. Their expertise, meticulous planning, and unwavering support allowed me to fully concentrate on the spiritual significance of the pilgrimage.
What truly sets Iqra apart is their genuine care for pilgrims. They fostered a sense of community among the group. Their dedication to ensuring every pilgrim had a fulfilling experience was truly heartwarming.
I highly recommend Iqra Travels to anyone seeking a well-organized and spiritually enriching Hajj or Umrah.
Maasha Allaah, We were more than happy and satisfied with your excellent services. May Allaah Azzawajal Reward the 'Iqra team' for their genuine intentions.
Mowlavi Mazeer Abbasi was an excellent Amir who guided us strictly according to the Qur'an and Sunnah and may Allaah SWT reward him and preserve him for further service. Jazeem Haji was a very determined leader who tried his best in every aspect and this applies to his son Nabavi as well. Nabavi tried his best to be precise in every aspect.
May Allaah Azzawajal bless you'll with Good health, Barakah, Success and enable you'll to continue with this Blessed Amal in the future - Aameen
Dear Iqra Travels Team,
I Nifras Najeeb wanted to take a moment to provide feedback on my Haj pilgrimage experience with Iqra Travels from Sri Lanka in the year 2024.
I would like to thank Iqra Travels for facilitating a memorable and spiritually fulfilling Haj pilgrimage. As most of us get the chance to do Haj once in our lifetime I would say that I am satisfied with all the obligations I performed with the guidance of Allah and then with the service provided by the Iqra travels team. Your dedication and professionalism contributed significantly to a positive experience for myself.
The spiritual guidance provided by Mazeer Abbasi was invaluable. He guided and helped us to perform and understand the significance of each ritual and historical site through out the journey.
Thank you once again for your service. I look forward to recommending Iqra Travels to others seeking a reliable Hajj experience in the future.
Alhamdulilah..!!! We have completed our Hajj with Iqra travels. I was holding a foreign passport, yet they helped to arrange everything accordingly from day one till the last day without any issues to fulfill this holy journey.
Jazeem Haji and staff fulfilled the most of what they had promised.Accommodation in Mecca was exceptional and beyond what we could have expected, to be honest. They have listened to all our queries and sorted everything out without any hesitation.
Our Moulavi Mazeer Abbasi is a very knowledgeable person and was excellent in every detail following Quran and Sunnah; the guidance he has shown us throughout the journey was second to none. Iqra Travels handled everything very well, and we would highly recommend it to others.
May Allah reward you all.
Jazakallah!!!
We performed hajj this year with Iqra travels and we were provided an exceptional service. The guidance provided for hajj by Mazeer moulavi enabled us to complete our hajj with great satisfaction and the other bayan sessions conducted by him was inspiring.
The many years of experience of the management of Iqra travels ensured that their group members were guided through hajj in the best possible manner. The leaders of the group is always open to suggestions, they are friendly and are committed to provide the best service.
It was truly a privilege to have performed our first hajj with Iqra travels and I would recommend them to anyone without second thought.
It is with great pleasure that I pen down my gratitude to Iqra Travels & Tours for organising our Umrah trip in
December 2019, Alhamdulila.
With the grace of God, we (my husband, sister and I) had a very rewarding and
comfortable trip to the holy cities which was organised by Iqra and the services provided was excellent.
A special mention must be made to Mr Nabawi Jaseem who liaised with us patiently and promptly and accommodated
all our requests to the best he could.
He always contacted us while we were in Mecca and Medina to ensure
everything was okay and his commitment to his clients is remarkable.
We also had an excellent Mowlavi who guided us in Mecca. Ansari Mowlavi took the extra effort to make sure that
we were guided properly while performing umrah and went
the extra mile to check on us often to ensure that we
were safe and comfortable.
We highly recommend Iqra Travels and
Tours to anyone who wishes to embark on this spiritual journey as they
understand the importance and cater to the needs
on a case to case basis with their dedicated team of experts.
Once again, Jazakallah Iqra travels for your
commendable service and may Allah reward you for all your efforts.
Ameen!
Overall Experience of our hajj can be rated as Very Good. The close customer service, guidance, resources
provided helped us perform our Hajj to its best potential.
Our Moulavi, Mazeer needs to be made special mention of. His Knowledge and guidance to do our Amals in line
with Quran & hadith was useful.
An area to improve is to give 2 options for Hajis’s (Economy Package & Luxury Package) for those who can
afford & look for a bit more comfort.
Nabavi has been excellent in his customer service skills with very prompt responses.
JazakAllah! My wife & I enjoyed and optimized our Amal’s during our first Hajj.
Alhamdulillah, I completed two Umrahs this year, courtesy of IQRA Travels, one with my wife and then with my
parents after the Hajj season.
I received exceptional all round service throughout both my journeys. With the budget I had in mind, they
offered a variety of packages and finally tailor made a package that suited me best.
Transport and food
were
looked into closely, and we enjoyed comfort at every point of our pilgrimage.
The service on our first
Umrah
was of par excellence and so we followed the same conditions on our second Umrah as well.
The fact that the
head of IQRA Travels kept in touch and ensured we were fine at every step of the way, helped us tremendously
and proved excellent customer service Masha Allah!
Being a satisfied customer, I hope to travel with IQRA Travels for many years to come Insha Allah.
Overall Highlights are excellent Islamic and spiritual guidance, prime locations and a good professional
group of Haji’s.
Overall it was a good and rewarding experience. I really enjoyed the IQRA hospitality and the wonderful
team of hajis.
Islamic guidance and spiritual aspects were excellent. Overall Coordination, Management
and Communication was good.
Accommodation in prime locations were helpful. Food in most instances were good except Mina.

I am glad that I performed Hajj Pilgrimage this year (2018) for the first time with Iqra Travels. This Travel operator with great reputation and many years of experience, did his utmost to make our pilgrimage a success. Meticulous planning at every stage and early warning about the day to day situation in the Holy City, created awareness among pilgrims. This paved the way for performing Hajj rites, in it’s correct perspective. Special mention should be made about the Learned and honored Mowlavi from Iqra Travels, who enlightened us and gave us guidance by way of useful bayans and praiseworthy narrations at places of Islamic and historical interest in Mecca and Medina.
Alhamdulillah the services and arrangements provided by Iqra Travels were integral in assisting us performing the rituals and ibadah of Hajj. They paid attention to every detail prior to even our departure and continued this till we were back home safely. The accommodation, food, transport and all other related aspects were coordinated very well and the entire team were extremely responsive and understanding. The Moulavi was very knowledgeable and effectively interacted with us to understand the purpose of the ibadah and rituals and guided us every step of the way to complete them in a meaningful manner to seek the pleasure of Allah. The management and team of Iqra helped us complete this extremely important obligation in a very satisfying and memorable manner. Jazakallahu Khairan and may Allah reward your efforts.
It is extremely gratifying to discover at long last an agency that truly understands the meaning of service. The service you have provided goes above and beyond anything we had experienced before. We are most grateful to you for making our blessed journey a memorable one. The amount of care you put in to ensure our comfort, such as providing with hotel accommodation in the Zam Zam Clock towers and the short length we had to walk to the Jamaarat, was greatly appreciated. Thank you for filling our days with experiences that we will forever cherish.
“Iqra Travels made our Hajj a pleasant experience right from the time we first contacted them. They obliged with our special needs and helped us prepare for the journey. The hotels that were booked for us both at Mekkah and Medina were excellent, and both were only 5 minute walking distance the Haram. The Maulavi who accompanied us was a great resource and a guide enabling us to complete our Hajj closest to the Sunnah In Sha Allah.”
We went for our hajj in 2018 with Iqra Travels. The Hajj pilgrimage was an amazing and humbling experience.
From the time we confirmed our travel plans to the arrival in Colombo the coordination and organization was excellent. The facilities provided in Makkah and Medina were really good. The hotels were a 3 min walk to the haram and our rooms were facing the Kaba. The tents in Mina were close to the Jamarath. The tents were equipped with adequate Air Conditioners while for beddings, sofa beds were provided. Transport was excellent with luxury coaches provided for all travel. There was no shortage of food and water.
The management was always attentive to the needs of the pilgrims and took extra steps to make them feel safe and comfortable. Thank you Iqra for making our hajj a memorable experience.
