How do I rent a wheelchair for হজ্জ rituals?

Wheelchair rental services are widely available at মসজিদুল হারাম. Authorized providers operate near the main entrances, offering manual wheelchairs and electric scooters for rental by the hour or by the ritual. For তাওয়াফ specifically, you can hire an operator to push you in a wheelchair around the কাবা শরীফ — this typically costs 100-200 SAR per তাওয়াফ session, though prices fluctuate during peak হজ্জ days.

The Haram administration also provides free wheelchair assistance through dedicated services for elderly and disabled হাজীগণ. The mataf (তাওয়াফ area) has a designated wheelchair lane on the ground floor, and the upper floors are fully accessible via ramps and elevators. The sa'i corridor between Safa and Marwa is also wheelchair-accessible. In মিনা and আরাফাত, wheelchair accessibility varies — discuss your specific needs with your হজ্জ operator in advance to ensure proper arrangements.
