Why Shepherds?
Shariah Compliant
We consider Shariah Compliance issues as the highest priority when it comes to conducting our business. We strongly believe it is incumbent upon us not only to operate our Hajj & Umrah packages as per Quran and Sunnah but also to manage our overall business upholding Islamic values. That is why we have teamed up with renowned Islamic Scholars like Dr. Mohammad Monzur E Elahi and Dr. Md. Rafiqul Islam al Madani.
Customer Centric
Hajj & Umrah being a spiritual Journey unlike any other pleasure or business trips, there is a spiritually sensitive dimension in organizing such packages within the guidelines set by various governmental authorities. Keeping all these aspects in mind, we from Shepherds consider being Customer Centric as our topmost priority in organizing Hajj & Umrah packages accordingly. A unique feature of Shepherds is that since our inception we have been conducting detailed surveys on Customer Feedbacks once our respected Pilgrims return from Hajj. This helps us to evaluate our overall packages and act accordingly if needed. We consider these surveys as an integral part for our effort to remain relevant with our customer preferences.

Transparency
We understand that Hajj and Umrah Journeys are not just only spiritually sensitive but also quite complicated to organize due to numerous policies and instructions from various governmental authorities. As a result, we strongly believe that it is best for both sides; we as organizers and our respected clients to have trust in each other. Hence we always try to maintain a level of transparency in our communications so that our respected clients can get real updates from time to time. This in return forms a strong bonding with our clientele which makes it easier for us to navigate through tough situations as one big family.
Dynamic Management
By the Grace of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) Shepherds team consists of dynamic individuals from various backgrounds ranging from renowned Islamic Scholars to individuals with vast experience in Hajj Management. These individuals always try to give their 100% for the service of the Honorable Guests of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala).
Affordable
Hajj and Umrah are getting expensive day by day due to various economic factors. We realize that for a vast majority of Bangladeshi Pilgrims arranging funds for Hajj & Umrah is getting difficult with time. Bangladesh Hajj quotas not getting filled up in recent years is a reflection of that scenario. Shepherds always strive to arrange affordable Hajj & Umrah Packages without compromising the service standards and overall package quality.
Striving for Continuous Development
In recent years, Hajj & Umrah sector has been greatly impacted by Post Covid-19 regulations and also by technological advancement. This resulted in digitalisation of many Hajj & Umrah services and also complications in Supply Chain Ecosystem. Taking all these challenges into account Shepherds always try to improve their service standards instead of taking things for granted. By the Mercy of Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala) our Customer Feedback from our surveys have been satisfactory since the beginning yet we did our level best to bring about improvements and experiment with various services in our packages within feasibility limits based on feedback we received even if it was from a minority of our respected clientele.
