The Muslim Pilgrim's Progress: Planning For Umrah Or Hajj

For many Muslims, performing the pilgrimage to Makkah, whether for the Hajj or Umrah, is a once in a lifetime experience, but it comes with a hefty price tag. What are the financial factors that Muslims should consider as they plan for these important trips? We discuss planning for pilgrimage with Suraya Zainudin, Founder of the Financial Blog, Ringgit Oh Ringgit.
