Pilgrimage and Halal Tourism Event: Application of Technology

Abstract

Religious, pilgrimage/Hajj, and Halal tourism activities are becoming increasingly popular in Asia and the Middle East countries. Hajj and Halal tourism events are an ever-growing industry that is getting momentum. Tourists have a variety of reasons for visiting different places. Travelling for Halal or spiritual purposes seems to have been common in human history from the start of civilization. Halal tourism begins with a religious event in which the Hajj is regarded as a traveler with a religious motive. Travelers consider more than just Halal requirements; their motivation comes from religious, social, conventional, and landscape patterns, all of which interconnect in the anticipation and choice of trip locations. Although several studies have mostly concentrated on spiritual terminology and categorization or tourism effect research, the majority of the studies are in Halal, spiritual and pilgrimages. The study uses a method of research to summarize existing literature, concepts that are being discussed in the field of technological application in pilgrimages and Halal tourism events. It emphasizes the viable concept of tourism with huge prospects of the world of pilgrimage and Halal tourism. This chapter offers several recommendations for developing pilgrimage, religious value, and Halal tourist events in Asian and Middle Eastern countries.
