Saudi Arabia’s Project for Utilization of Hady and Adahi (Adahi) kicked off on Friday its operations to perform meat sacrifices at the Hajj on the occasion of Eid al-Adha.

Adahi General Coordinator Saad Abdul Rahman Al-Wabil said the operations are taking place within an integrated system aimed at facilitating the procedure and so that the pilgrims can perform their holy rituals smoothly and at ease.

The project aims to carry out 950,000 sacrifices within 84 hours.

Al-Wabil said the project is operating seven complexes providing high quality services to the pilgrims.

He added that 25,000 members of staff are ready to carry out their duties.

Adahi is committed to respecting all relevant Sharia and health conditions to perform the sacrifice, from the moment of slaughter to distribution and delivery of the meat to those in need, he stressed.

These efforts are an extension of the support by Saudi Arabia and its leadership to Hajj pilgrims, he added.
