In the preliminary study, a survey using an open-ended and closed-ended questionnaire was conducted among experienced teachers. The findings from the survey revealed that the elements of AR could be implemented in the Hajj AR mobile application as an interactive learning tool. Thus, a Hajj AR mobile application will be developed by implementing the findings obtained in the preliminary study to evaluate the user-experience among the children who are using the AR mobile application when learning Hajj.
