“The bank hosts many social and recreational activities for its employees throughout the year and it has chosen to organize a trip to perform Omrah during Ramadan, as being in line with Shari’a principles, such initiatives promote Islamic values among the staff,” Khalid Al Hassan, Chairman of the Social Committee, said.
“On this blessed trip, the committee worked to provide all means of comfort for participants including expatriate employees who recently converted to Islam and were given the chance to perform Omrah for the first time and visit the Holy site,” he added.
