Imran covered more than 7,000 kilometers, starting on July 1, 2022, heading to the Grand Mosque to perform Umrah and Hajj.

Regarding the details of the trip, Imran explained that he walked from Pakistan, passing through Iran, at an average of 30 kilometers per day.

Speaking about his daily schedule, he said: "I used to walk from after the dawn prayer until sunset, then I slept until the next day. Thank God, I did not suffer any health problems except for some wounds in the feet. I feel happy while I was walking, and I was eager to see the Grand Mosque and the Holy Kaaba."
