A women-led organisation born from compassion, service, and the desire to help elderly women prepare for Hajj with dignity and support.
Rih La Tul Umr was born from a shared calling among six women who witnessed the emotional pain experienced by elderly women who dreamt of performing Hajj but could not afford to go.
The organisation was established to create a platform of support — not only by assisting with costs, but also by providing education, preparation, resources, and guidance.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic delayed the organisation’s early efforts, Rih La Tul Umr successfully sent its first group of pilgrims in 2022 and has continued to grow its impact every year since.
At its heart, the organisation exists to transform sincere intention into supported, dignified preparation for Hajj.
From its founding vision to its first supported pilgrims, Rih La Tul Umr has continued to grow through compassion, preparation, and community support.
Six women came together to create a platform of support for elderly women longing to perform Hajj.
After delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the first successful group of pilgrims was sent.
The organisation continues to grow its impact through financial assistance, education, and preparation.

In 2019, after witnessing the barriers women faced in completing their pilgrimage, Rihlatul Umr was officially registered as a non-profit organization. From its inception, the initiative has operated entirely through volunteers guided by compassion, faith, and a shared commitment to helping women realize their dreams of Hajj. The founding team recognized that while spiritual readiness is vital, financial and logistical challenges often prevent deserving women from embarking on this sacred journey — and they set out to change that.
At the heart of Rihlatul Umr lies a mission to empower women and make Hajj accessible:
We aim to remove financial and logistical barriers that might prevent a woman from performing Hajj.
We foster a supportive community where women uplift, encourage, and guide one another through the pilgrimage process.
Beyond financial assistance, we provide guidance, mentorship, and spiritual preparation to ensure each pilgrim feels fully ready for the journey.
Through these core values, Rihlatul Umr strives to make the pilgrimage not only achievable but a deeply enriching experience.
Over the years, thanks to the generosity of donors and the dedication of volunteers, Rihlatul Umr has helped dozens of women embark on their spiritual journeys. Each year, more sisters are empowered to experience the sacred pilgrimage, transforming their lives and the lives of their families. The initiative’s efforts are a testament to what a committed community can achieve when driven by faith, compassion, and the desire to make a meaningful difference.
Rihlatul Umr is a community-driven initiative dedicated to empowering women who are spiritually prepared for Hajj but face financial or logistical challenges. Through compassionate assistance, educational guidance, and essential resources, we aim to ease the journey for deserving sisters. Our mission is simple yet profound: open doors, uplift lives, and make the sacred pilgrimage more accessible, ensuring that every hopeful pilgrim feels supported, valued, and spiritually prepared.
We understand that the financial and logistical demands of Hajj can be overwhelming for many women. By addressing these challenges, we hope to ensure that dedication and spiritual readiness are never hindered by circumstance. Our service is rooted in empathy, community, and the belief that every woman deserves the opportunity to embark on this transformative journey.
Our support spans financial contributions, provision of practical items, and structured pre-Hajj guidance. From workshops and mentorship to packing essentials and logistical advice, we ensure that every participant is prepared for the spiritual, emotional, and practical aspects of Hajj. Rihlatul Umr is committed to walking alongside every hujjaaj, step by step, toward a journey of a lifetime.
