It was registered with the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development in 2008 under number 499. The association is classified as one of the organizations that provide religious guidance, education, and pilgrim service, with its headquarters in Makkah al-Mukarramah. Its services extend to the locations where visitors are present, including the airports for pilgrims in Jeddah City, Taif, and al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, as well as Jeddah Islamic Port, the Ihram's Mawaqit (locations for assuming the state of Ihram), and the courtyards of the Grand Mosque.

The association seeks to communicate its objectives to beneficiaries through various media and modern technologies.

Programs

The association adopts several charitable projects for the visitors of the Sacred House. These include the Physical Nourishment Program, providing food and water services; the Spiritual Nourishment Program, enriching the visitor's experience through guidance programs with translation services; and educational initiatives, establishing awareness campaigns in health, religion, and security fields. Additionally, the association manages an Endowment Program, utilizing funds for charitable purposes, and a Public Charity Program, organizing the distribution of charity to those in need.
