Jordan prides itself on their Hajj services and Jordan Tours. They will accommodate anyone wanting to go to hajj. There are numerous bus companies in Jordan who have hajj tour packages and you can go to hajj quite inexpensively if you are chosen. Hajj tour packages include bus travel, hotel and tour of the hajj rituals. You will have a guide with you to help you understand what you should do next. The more expensive companies are not necessary better companies. Ask for referrals.
Saudi Arabia will allow one visa for each 1000 people in a country, so going to Hajj is based on age and health.
Each year the Ministry of Jordan will choose around 40 to 50 individuals to go free to Hajj. These people are chosen based on circumstance and lack of wealth. I was one of those chosen to go to Hajj and my very wonderful King Abdullah paid for the entire trip himself. I was given free travel, money for food when I was there and even a check when I returned also. I was given this trip based on the fact that I am an American convert. Jordan loves to help foreigners who devote their life to Islam. It was a beautiful trip and I was treated very well. So you can say I had the cheapest hajj possible.
Ministry of Awqaf in Jordan Hajj
The Awqaf Ministry each year takes thousands of Muslims to hajj on their luxury buses out of Amman, Jordan. The price of these trips is very reasonable and you must simply apply for a trip through the Ministry early enough. For those looking for cheap hajj packages, Awqaf should be considered. Due to the large number of people traveling to hajj, inquire about the route that the bus will take. Some bus companies to save hassle and stress will go to Arafat on the first day, as Arafat is extremely busy. Performing hajj correctly is imperative.
Luxury Hajj Flight Packages
Some will choose to fly to Hajj and stay in a 5 star hotel. These trips are not considered to be cheap hajj packages. They are considerably more and will not include a trip to Medina. You will stay in luxury hotels next to the Haram in Mecca and enjoy the splendor of the season more. For those who can afford this luxury which for many is a once in a lifetime trip, you will be glad that you came to hajj and lived like kings. All pilgrims dress the same and no one on the hajj journey knows who you are, how wealthy you are or how poor you are. Hajj is about equality and devotion to the rites of the pilgrimage is a must if you can afford the journey at least once in your life.

Once you leave Jordan to begin your Hajj journey, you will first go to Medina. This is a time when you will visit the grave of Prophet Mohammad, peace be upon him.
Prophet Mohammad stated, "Whoever comes with the sole intention of visiting my grave, my intercession will become incumbent for that person."
The number of days you spend in Medina will depend on your travel company, but the more the better. Medina is a much loved area and you will be surrounded by love and lots of Angels in the Mosque and area.
Once you go to Mecca and begin your hajj journey. the hajj map above will show you the normal steps taken to complete the journey which takes around 3 to 4 days. It is a hard journey and if you are in good health, it will be a journey that will be endured with joy. For the sick, this pilgrimage will be difficult, but attainable. When I went to Hajj I was in very good health and in one day alone I walked 30 kilometers. For the sick there are wheel chairs and assistance.
Your guide will surround you and show you how to stay together because there are millions of visitors there and easy to get lost. Hajj is a time of great joy and I guarantee you 1000% that you will want to go again and again and again. The love of Hajj will never leave your heart. The hajj map will not show the true beauty of this beautiful trip. Hajj is indeed a journey of a lifetime and one I will envy you on.

Hajj and Umrah Guidelines
Hajj and umrah guidelines will include what to do and what not to do. In order to have an accepted pilgrimage you must follow certain criteria towards your intention, your religion and the treatment of the holy sites. It is not easy to complete a pilgrimage, whether big or small, but with these hajj and umrah guidelines you will be in perfect shape to have a hajj mabroor (accepted hajj)
1. Intention or Niyyah - You must first make the intention to go to hajj or umrah.
2. Tawbah - Pray two rakats and seek Allah's forgiveness. It is good when on your hajj journey to be close to the pious ones and stay far from those who choose to spend their days gossiping.
3. Fulfillment of debts - Pay all people you owe. If you have monthly debts, then make sure those are paid on time. Your family must be taken care also. You cannot go to hajj and leave your wife and children without food or money for the month.
4. Education - All Muslims must educate their self before going to hajj and umrah.
5. Departure - You must leave your home happy and fulfilled. Make sure to do two rakats before leaving your home. Ask all your friends and neighbors to forgive you, especially anyone you have had any problems with in the past.
6. Ibadah - Make sure to be very good and make your salat exactly on time. Follow the rules of Islam towards everyone.
7. Gift - It is good to present a gift to a poor person before you leave and then once you arrive you should give charity to a local, such as a street sweeper of the Haram.
8. Do very much durood when at Medina and to harm the Mosque or its people are a very great sin. Drink very much zam zam water and ask Allah for your health.
9. Your time is very short on hajj and umrah so value each moment and don't spend your time admiring the decorations and people. Spend your time worshiping Allah.
Hajj Mabroor (Accepted Hajj)
We hope that your tour from Jordan to hajj was accepted. Tours from Jordan to hajj are short compared to some who come from far, far away lands. We are blessed here in Jordan to have a government who sponsors and aids these tours to their final completion. It is important for you to realize some things though. Your hajj is not finished once you leave the gates of the Haram, where you will make your final tawaf of the kaba and say your goodbyes. Your exit from Saudi Arabia is also not the end of your hajj. You will be given a gift of the Glorious Quran at the gates and some dates.
You will get to the border of Jordan and you will think of home much, but this is not the end of your hajj. You will arrive in Amman or your set destination and this is not the end of your hajj. You will arrive at your home and this is not the end of your hajj. Your leaving of the actual cheap hajj began and ended with intention. For you to revert to your old ways may mean that your hajj will not be accepted. A true hajji will be different and kind. He will keep to his devotion and his prayers and he will remember Allah much.
When you leave hajj remember that you may never come here again. We hope, if Allah wills, that each hajji has an accepted hajj and that you will be a witness for others that tours from Jordan was the best way to travel.
Salam Aleikum (peace be upon you) until we meet again.
