Prince Abdul Mateen of Brunei and his wife Anisha Rosnah shared photos from Mecca, having completed the Umrah pilgrimage to Islam's holiest city during the month of Ramadan.
The royal couple, who married in a lavish 10-day wedding in January of this year, posted six pictures to Prince Abdul's Instagram page, including an aerial shot of Masjid Al Haram, also known as the Great Mosque of Mecca.
One selfie that went out to Prince Abdul's 3.2 million followers showed the pair in white robes known as the clothes of Ihram.
Pilgrims are obliged to put on such robes when they reach certain points known as Miqat points.
As is customary for men, Prince Abdul, 32, had uncovered his right shoulder.

On Sunday 14 January, crowds gathered on the streets of Brunei to watch Prince Abdul and his new wife Anisha Rosnah parade through the capital ahead of their wedding reception.
The royal couple publicly tied the knot - they had married legally the previous Wednesday - and enjoyed a glittering reception attended by international royalty and dignitaries.

Prince Abdul revealed his engagement to Anisha Rosnah in December 2023, shocking fans of Asia's most eligible bachelor.
Anisha Rosnah is the granddaughter of an adviser to Brunei's leader, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah. It is understood that she owns a fashion and tourism company, and that the couple have been dating for years.
The wedding reception proved to be a lavish affair which saw Prince Abdul dress for the occasion in a white and gold ceremonial uniform, while his bride wore a long, beaded white dress.
The couple waved at the thousands who had gathered on the streets of Bandar Seri Begawan before arriving at the Istana Nurul Iman Palace in an open-top Rolls Royce.
It was the first time the newlywed couple had been seen together since a legal wedding ceremony took place behind closed doors earlier in the week.
Photographs show the couple taking part in a public marriage ceremony beneath an opulent pergola, before heading inside the palace for a formal blessing.
An estimated 5,000 people were expected to attend the reception at the Istana Nurul Iman Palace.
Guests reportedly included royalty from Saudi Arabia and Jordan, as well as Indonesia's President Joko Widodo and the leader of the Philippines, Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
Prince Abdul is the fourth son, and tenth child, of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, 77, and his former second wife Mariam Abdul Aziz, 67.
