In a powerful display of leadership and unity, His Majesty King Mohammed VI has addressed a poignant message to the Moroccan pilgrims embarking on the sacred journey of Hajj. As the first contingent prepared to depart from Rabat-Salé Airport, the Sovereign's words resonated with profound significance, imbuing the pilgrims with a sense of duty and responsibility to uphold the highest virtues of their nation and faith.

In his message, read by the Minister of Habous and Islamic Affairs, Ahmed Toufiq, the King implored the pilgrims to "represent their country with dignity during the Hajj season and embody the sublime values of Islam, such as sincere fraternity, absolute tolerance, and active solidarity."

His Majesty's words echoed the enduring principles that have ensured security, stability, and progress for Morocco under his enlightened guidance: "Be the worthy ambassadors of your country, portraying its radiant image, for it is these unwavering values that have secured peace and prosperity for our nation, enabling it to steadfastly march towards greater progress and prosperity."

The Sovereign's call extended beyond mere representation; it was a charge to become bearers of Morocco's centuries-old civilization, one that has earned renown for its ancestors through unity, symbiosis, and unwavering attachment to the sacred constants and symbols of the Moroccan Nation. This civilization, built upon the pillars of moderation and doctrinal unity, has withstood the test of time.

Moreover, His Majesty reminded the pilgrims of their sacred obligation to embody the sublime values of Islam during the Hajj season – righteousness, kindness, benevolence towards others, solidarity, and sincere faith in the Lord of the Universe. The King's message resonated with the essence of the Hajj itself, a spiritual journey that transcends borders and unites believers in their devotion to the Almighty.

In his wisdom, the Sovereign implored the pilgrims to "strictly adhere to the organizational measures adopted by the competent authorities in the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, to ensure a warm welcome for the guests of the Lord, under conditions of tranquility, so that the Hajj season may unfold in an atmosphere of order, discipline, peace, and security."

As the Moroccan pilgrims embark on this sacred journey, their hearts are filled with the Sovereign's guidance, a beacon of wisdom that will undoubtedly inspire them to be true ambassadors of their nation's rich heritage and the timeless values of Islam. Their pilgrimage will not only be a spiritual awakening but also a testament to the enduring bonds that unite the Moroccan people under the visionary leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI.
