SAUDI ARABIA – Somalia’s Minister of Endowments and Islamic Affairs, Mukhtaar Roobow Ali, has explained why the Somali language was added to the list of languages used to translate the Hajj sermon delivered on the Day of Arafah this year.

Minister Mukhtaar Roobow stated that Somali pilgrims have been assigned accommodation near the Namirah Mosque, where the Hajj Day of Arafah sermon is delivered, necessitating a direct translation for better understanding.

On May 31, 2025, the Saudi government announced that the 1446 Hijri (2025 Gregorian) Hajj sermon, scheduled for Thursday, 9th Dhul Hijjah 1446, would be translated into 34 languages, including Somali, to cater to the diverse linguistic needs of Muslims worldwide.
