Saudi Arabian authorities have announced a significant step to enhance the global reach of the 2025 Arafah sermon by translating and broadcasting it live in 37 languages, notably including Nigeria’s Hausa, Yoruba, and Fulani languages. This initiative aims to enable millions of pilgrims and global viewers to connect deeply with the sermon in their native tongues.

Haramain, a Saudi-based online news platform, revealed this development on Saturday via X (formerly Twitter), emphasizing the inclusion of Nigerian local languages among the diverse linguistic lineup. The official message stated, “The Hajj Khutbah 1446 will be translated into 34 languages on Thursday, 9 Dhul Hijjah 1446.”

The comprehensive list of languages spans Arabic, Urdu, English, French, Indonesian, Persian (Farsi), Hausa, Chinese (Mandarin), Russian, Bengali, Turkish, Malay (Bahasa Melayu), Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, Filipino (Tagalog), Amharic (Ethiopia), Bosnian, Hindi, Dutch, Thai, Malayalam, Swahili, Pashto, Tamil, Azerbaijani, Swedish, Uzbek, Albanian, Fulani (Fula), Somali, Rohingya, and Yoruba.

This multilingual broadcast reflects Saudi Arabia’s commitment to spreading Islam’s message of tolerance and unity worldwide, fostering better understanding among Muslims and non-Muslims alike. It also comes amid the sacred month of Dhul Hijjah, which began with the confirmed sighting of the crescent moon on May 27.

According to the Islamic calendar, June 5 will mark the Day of Arafat, the pinnacle of the Hajj pilgrimage, followed by Eid-el-Adha celebrations on June 6. The month of Dhul Hijjah is regarded as a period of heightened devotion, reflection, and worship for Muslims globally.
