Kazakhstan has approximately 70% Muslim population, primarily ethnic Kazakhs following the Hanafi school. Hajj preparation courses are mandatory. Kazakh and Russian are the primary languages — Arabic language basics are recommended. Kazakhstan's continental climate means pilgrims should prepare for extreme heat differences. The country has invested in modernizing its Hajj organization.
