The Saudi Arabian government has temporarily suspended the Umrah pilgrimage and visits to the Prophet's Mosque in Medina for both foreign nationals and residents. This measure is being taken as a precaution against the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

The number of pilgrims visiting Saudi Arabia has steadily increased over the past five years, reaching 7.5 million during the Hijri year 1440 (2018/2019), up from 5.7 million in 1436 Hijri. The decision to temporarily halt these religious activities is expected to reduce Saudi Arabia's tourism revenue this year.
