Congregants Asked To Always Use Footwear To Prevent Soared Feet

Saudi Arabia's Hajj Organizing Committee (PPIH) reminded pilgrims of Indonesian Hajj candidates to always wear footwear when they were going to worship at the Prophet's Mosque and the Grand Mosque to prevent limping footprints.

"This limping leg is because the most common thing is because of the hot floor or asphalt around Medina or in Makkah and the congregation does not use footwear," said Head of Section for Elderly, Disabilities, and PKP3JH Leksmana Arry Chandra in Medina as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, May 11.

The limping of the congregation's feet occurs in almost every Hajj. One of the most causes is that the congregation feels lost sandals or shoes when leaving the hotel, then goes home without footwear.

Due to the hot weather, the floor of the courtyards of the Prophet's Mosque and the Grand Mosque, as well as the streets in Tanah Haram are hot so that they can cause feet to overflow if they step on them without a base.

In order to avoid this, Aleks asked the congregation to always carry bags/plastics of sandal storage or shoes and take them wherever they go while doing activities at the Prophet's Mosque and the Grand Mosque.

"Don't put sandals in any place, to avoid the risk of losing or forgetting to put them," he said.

He also asked not to leave sandals to other people or fellow participants of prospective hajj because there was a possibility that they would be separated from the group.

If you lose or forget to store footwear, don't force yourself to step on the floor/path with hot temperature and inform the absence of footwear to Indonesian Hajj officers so that new footwear can be given.

"If it is flexible, the first thing is to immediately consult health workers, we will provide care to the congregation. Because if the limp feet are allowed, it will cause infection and will hinder the worship of the pilgrims," he said.
