Hajj pilgrims need to improve soul

Islamic Revolution Leader Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenei thanked the Iranian Hajj ceremony authorities Tuesday for the efforts they undertook for the annual ceremony.

Ayatollah Khamenei urged relishing opportunities provided in the religious ceremony to carry out cultural projects, saying, "Pilgrims of the Beitollah al-Haram (Mecca) must become further aware through newer initiatives."

Ayatollah Khamenei viewed cultural activities as conducive to intellectual promotion. The Leader called rendering of services to the Hajj pilgrims a favorable spiritual opportunity.

The IR Leader underlined that in time of Hajj the pilgrims need to improve spiritually and culturally, to which effect modern promotional approaches must be adopted.
