كعهدها، كسبت المملكة العربية السعودية رهان التحدي في موسم الحج هذا العام، ورفعت السقف عالياً في فن إدارة الحشود، ليس على المستوى التنظيمي الاعتيادي، بل على مستوى تقديم أفضل وأرقى الخدمات لضيوف الرحمن، والحرص على سلامتهم وأمنهم، والعمل على راحتهم في كل المراحل، وعند كل منسك من المناسك وفق خطط منضبطة، وتحركات منسجمة، وتوافق بين كافة الإدارات، انتهى بالجميع إلى موسم خلا من أي منغّص، ولم تسجل فيه أي حالات تعكّر الصفو، أو ثغرة يستغلها أصحاب الغرض، ممن ينتظرون الزلات، ويحصون العثرات، بغية النيل من جهود المملكة الخارقة، التي فاقت أي مثيل لها في العالم. فلا غرو إذاً، أن تتوالى التهنئات المشُيدة بعظمة هذا الإنجاز الكبير من قيادات الدول الصديقة، وعرفانها بما لمسته من عناية برعاياها من الحجاج في هذا الموسم والمواسم السابقة.
لقد حق لولي عهدنا الأمين الأمير محمد بن سلمان، حفظه الله، أن يفخر بما تم إنجازه، وقد جاءت كلمته في الحفل الذي أقيم بقصر منى، للمهنئين لسموه بعيد الأضحى المبارك، لتعبّر عن هذا خير تعبير، وتحمل في طواياها العزم على مواصلة الجهود، والبشارة بمزيد من التطور خدمة لضيوف الرحمن، حيث قال سموه:
«إنّ ما شهدناه اليوم من نجاح متواصل في خدمة ضيوف الرحمن، يأتي نتيجة لجهود دولتنا المباركة، في خدمة الحرمين الشريفين والمشاعر المقدسة وقاصديها.
وسوف نواصل بحول الله وقوته بذل جميع الجهود، لتوفير سبل الراحة لضيوف الرحمن. ونشيد بما تبذلونه والعاملون في مختلف قطاعات الدولة، والمتطوعون رجالاً ونساءً من جهود متواصلة في تنفيذ سياسة الدولة، لتمكين الحجاج من إتمام مناسكهم في أمن وسكينة.. ونسأل الله تعالى أن يديم علينا نعمة الأمن والأمان، وأن يوفقنا لمواصلة أداء هذا الواجب العظيم على أكمل وجه..».
كلمات صدق، خرجت من قائد يعرف جنوده، وأمير هنّدس «الرؤية» فحلّق بالمملكة في آفاق بعيدة، ومجالات رحبة، ورفع اسمها عالياً بين الأمم جميعاً.
إن العناية بالحرمين الشريفين، قد بلغت الغاية في «الرؤية»، التي أفردت لذلك استراتيجية وبرامج رسمت بإحكام، وتُطبق بصور مثالية، كان من ثمرتها من شهدناه موسم هذا العام، من الجهود ما يحملنا على الفخر صدقاً بلا مباهاة، ويدفعنا إلى الإشادة حقّاً دون تزيّد أو تملق. فدونكم كل المراحل التي شهدها موسم هذا العام، بداية من مبادرة طريق مكة وقد سهّلت الإجراءات ووفرت الراحة للحجاج، وما قامت به الوزارات المعنية من توفير كافة الخدمات اللوجستية المساندة، وتحسّن وسائل التنقل، وإدخال التقنيات الحديثة في إدارة الحشود، وتوظيف الذكاء الاصطناعي كيفما اقتضت الحاجة ودعت إلى ذلك ضرورة المواكبة، وتحسين شبكات الطرق، وتعبيدها بشكل يوفر أقصى درجات الراحة والطمأنينة والسلامة للحجاج..
أما على المستوى الأمني فقد كان رجال قوات أمن الحج على قدر المسؤولية، في رصد كافة التجاوزات، والاستعانة بطائرات «الدرون» لتعقب المنفلتين، وغير الملتزمين بالإجراءات والتعليمات، التي صيغت لحفظ الأنفس، وضمان سلامتها، وليس تضييقاً على أحد، وكان لحرصهم وانضباطهم أثره في عدم وجود أي حوادث لوفاة أو إصابة في موسم الحج هذا العام.
على المستوى الصحي فقد ضربت المملكة المثل الذي لا يجارى، والنموذج الذي فاقت به الآخرين في حسن تقديم الخدمات لضيوف الرحمن وحجاج بيت الله بغير مقابل، وبأحدث الوسائل الطبية، وأعلى درجات السلامة، شاملاً ذلك أعقد العمليات، وشارك مستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث بوحدة السكتات الدماغية المتنقلة في الحرم المكي والمشاعر المقدسة خلال موسم حج هذا العام في إنجاز نوعي وغير مسبوق على مستوى العالم في مجال طب الحشود، مجسّداً التزام المملكة الراسخ بتقديم أرقى مستويات الرعاية الصحية لضيوف الرحمن، من خلال توظيف أحدث التقنيات والأساليب الطبية المتقدمة.
وتهدف الوحدة إلى توفير تشخيص دقيق وتدخل علاجي فوري للحجاج المصابين بالسكتة الدماغية في اللحظات الحرجة، مما يسهم في إنقاذ الأرواح وتقليل الإعاقات الناتجة عن هذه الحالات بنسبة كبيرة.
ويأتي هذا البرنامج ليُشكّل علامة فارقة في تاريخ الرعاية الصحية التخصصية المقدمة خلال موسم حج هذا العام ويعكس قدرة المملكة على الابتكار في تقديم خدمات صحية رائدة في بيئات الحشود الكثيفة، وفق أعلى معايير الجودة والكفاءة الطبية.
كما أدّت قوات الدفاع المدني دورها المنظور وهي تحشد كافة الجهود لأي طارئ، وتدخل تقنية الاستعانة بطائرات «الدرون» في عمليات الإطفاء، وإجراء التدريبات والعمليات الافتراضية عليها تحسباً وترقية لمهارات منسوبيها..
إن الإحاطة الشاملة بما أنجز هذا العام تبدو عصية في هذه المساحة من الزاوية، وتبقى هذه الإشارات الوامضة مجرد أمثلة عابرة للتدليل فقط على عظمة ما قُدم، وجزيل ما صنع، فلا أقل من رفع أسمى آيات الشكر والعرفان لقيادتنا الرشيدة، ولكافة من أسهم في هذا الإنجاز الذي نفاخر به الأمم، ونرجو من الله أن يديم على وطننا أمنه وسلامته وعزته وتقدمهم المثمر البناء..
وعشت يا مهندس الرؤية على إيقاع الحياة..
وكل عام وأنت بخير..

As it has always been, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has won the challenge in this year's Hajj season, raising the bar high in the art of crowd management, not just at the usual organizational level, but at the level of providing the best and finest services to the guests of the Most Merciful, ensuring their safety and security, and working for their comfort at every stage and at every ritual according to disciplined plans, harmonious movements, and coordination among all departments, resulting in a season free of any disturbances, with no incidents that marred the tranquility, or loopholes exploited by those with ulterior motives, who await missteps and count mistakes, aiming to undermine the extraordinary efforts of the Kingdom, which surpassed any similar efforts in the world. It is no wonder, then, that congratulations praising the greatness of this significant achievement have been pouring in from the leaders of friendly nations, acknowledging what they have observed in terms of care for their citizens among the pilgrims this season and in previous seasons.
Our esteemed Crown Prince, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, may God protect him, has every reason to be proud of what has been accomplished, and his words at the ceremony held at Mina Palace to congratulate him on the occasion of Eid al-Adha express this sentiment perfectly, carrying within them the determination to continue efforts and the promise of further development in service of the guests of the Most Merciful, where His Highness stated:
“What we witnessed today in the continuous success of serving the guests of the Most Merciful is the result of the efforts of our blessed state in serving the Two Holy Mosques and the sacred sites and their visitors.
We will continue, with God's will and strength, to exert all efforts to provide comfort for the guests of the Most Merciful. We commend what you and the workers in various sectors of the state, and the volunteers, both men and women, have been doing in the continuous efforts to implement the state’s policy, enabling the pilgrims to complete their rituals in safety and tranquility... and we ask Allah Almighty to continue blessing us with security and safety, and to grant us success in continuing to fulfill this great duty to the best of our ability...”.
Words of truth, spoken by a leader who knows his soldiers, and a prince who has engineered the "vision" that has soared the Kingdom to distant horizons and vast fields, raising its name high among all nations.
The care for the Two Holy Mosques has reached its peak in the "vision," which has dedicated strategies and programs that are meticulously crafted and implemented in ideal ways, resulting in the efforts we witnessed this year, which genuinely make us proud without boasting, and compel us to commend truly without exaggeration or flattery. Here are all the stages that this year's season witnessed, starting with the Makkah Route initiative, which facilitated procedures and provided comfort for the pilgrims, and what the relevant ministries have done in providing all supporting logistical services, improving transportation means, introducing modern technologies in crowd management, and employing artificial intelligence as needed and as required for keeping pace, improving road networks, and paving them in a way that provides the utmost comfort, reassurance, and safety for the pilgrims...
On the security level, the Hajj Security Forces were up to the responsibility, monitoring all violations and utilizing "drone" technology to track down those who were unruly and non-compliant with the procedures and instructions designed to preserve lives and ensure safety, not to restrict anyone. Their diligence and discipline had a significant impact in preventing any incidents of death or injury during this year's Hajj season.
On the health level, the Kingdom has set an unparalleled example, surpassing others in the quality of services provided to the guests of the Most Merciful and the pilgrims of the House of God without charge, using the latest medical means and the highest safety standards, including the most complex operations. King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center participated with a mobile stroke unit in the Grand Mosque and the sacred sites during this year's Hajj season, achieving a qualitative and unprecedented accomplishment in the field of crowd medicine globally, embodying the Kingdom's steadfast commitment to providing the highest levels of healthcare for the guests of the Most Merciful, through the use of the latest technologies and advanced medical methods.
The unit aims to provide accurate diagnosis and immediate therapeutic intervention for pilgrims suffering from strokes during critical moments, contributing to saving lives and significantly reducing disabilities resulting from these cases.
This program represents a landmark in the history of specialized healthcare provided during this year's Hajj season and reflects the Kingdom's ability to innovate in delivering pioneering health services in dense crowd environments, according to the highest standards of quality and medical efficiency.
The Civil Defense Forces also played their visible role by mobilizing all efforts for any emergencies, employing drone technology in firefighting operations, and conducting training and virtual operations on it in anticipation and enhancement of the skills of their personnel...
A comprehensive overview of what has been accomplished this year seems challenging in this limited space, and these flashing references remain mere passing examples to illustrate the greatness of what has been offered and the substantial efforts made. Therefore, it is only fitting to raise the highest expressions of gratitude and appreciation to our wise leadership and to all who contributed to this achievement that we take pride in among nations, and we hope from God to continue blessing our homeland with security, safety, dignity, and fruitful progress...
And long live, O architect of the vision, to the rhythm of life...
And every year, may you be well...
