Pakistan Pilgrims Society was set up in the year 1981 by Marhum Ali Raza T. Lakhani with a primary aim to facilitate the pilgrims to avail visa for visiting Iraq. Visit visas were banned for pilgrims from Pakistan from 1976 to 1980. This was made possible by organizing groups through government tourist department in Iraq. The success in organizing the group pilgrimage to Iraq encouraged the Society to arrange pilgrimage to Makkah, Medina, Syria and Iran as well, by availing services of well-established tour operators in those countries.

Pakistan Pilgrims Society was set up in the year 1981 by Marhum Ali Raza T. Lakhani with a primary aim to facilitate the pilgrims to avail visa for visiting Iraq.

The success in organizing the group pilgrimage to Iraq encouraged the Society to arrange pilgrimage to Makkah, Medina, Syria and Iran as well, by availing services of well-established tour operators in those countries.
The Society renders honorary service in obtaining group visas, air tickets, boarding, lodging and ground transport facilities at discounted rates. This enables the pilgrims to benefit from the bargain price and enjoy the quality arrangements.
The Society announces various groups during the year and calls for entries from intending pilgrims. The cost of pilgrimage tour is estimated and a lump sum is collected from the pilgrims. Upon completion of the tour the actual total expenditure is divided equally amongst the pilgrims and the left over amount, if any, is refunded. Similarly any shortfall thereupon is recovered.
The Society provides personalized service to every individual in the group. No matter you are young or old, first timer or frequent, well versed or knowledge seeker, our Ulema and guide, who accompany every group, are eager to help you become spiritually charged.
The Society is administered by a committee of 12 office bearers under its Rules and Byelaws. One from among the office bearers or volunteers always accompanies the group to coordinate and polish the arrangements made by the Society and to help the pilgrims to have a comfortable journey to attain the spirituality.
