British entrepreneur and PrettyLittleThing founder Umar Kamani has offered to pay for The Traitors finalist Faraaz Noor and his family to undertake Hajj.

During one of the final episodes of this year's reality competition, the 22-year-old revealed that if he won the show, he would use the prize money to take his family on the Islamic pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

Despite missing out on the money, Faraaz still hopes to take a Hajj trip, and Kamani has now offered to make his dream come true.

"I would love to send Faraaz from Traitors and his family to Hajj," he wrote on X on Monday evening.

The fashion businessman added in a statement, "Watching Faraaz speak about taking his family to Hajj really stayed with me. I'd love to help make that happen."

Faraaz, the youngest contestant in the latest series, was the first finalist to be voted out during the final on Friday, with traitors Stephen Libby and Rachel Duffy eventually taking home the £95,750 prize.

In an interview with BBC News on Tuesday, he revealed that his Hajj dream was still alive, saying, "Inshallah (God willing), one day I'll be able to hopefully take them to Hajj or even complete Umrah. I'm looking forward to that."

Hajj, one of the Five Pillars of Islam, is a sacred annual pilgrimage that is required of every Muslim at least once in their lifetime, while Umrah is a voluntary pilgrimage to Mecca that can be performed at any time. This year's Hajj takes place between 24 and 29 May.

Reflecting on the competition, Faraaz told the BBC that he has no regrets and no hard feelings about coming so close to winning.
