During the reception, the Crown Prince addressed the congratulators from security and military sectors, stating, "What you offer in blessed efforts, along with other state agencies, in continuous work to serve the pilgrims of the Sacred House of God, ensuring their comfort and maintaining their security, is a source of our pride and honor. We will continue, with God's will, to exert efforts and allocate resources to facilitate the performance of Hajj every year indefinitely. The significant sacrifices, honorable actions, and heroics you undertake to safeguard your country and its sacred sites are a path that the sons of this land have followed since its establishment, and they will not falter in protecting its security, preserving its stability, and safeguarding its resources."
He concluded by saying, "We ask God to protect this nation and sustain its blessings of goodness, safety, and security."
