JAKARTA - Saudi Arabia's Hajj Organizing Officer (PPIH) said as many as 203,152 Indonesian Hajj candidates who had arrived in Makkah are gradually heading to Arafah starting June 4, 2025 to carry out the peak phase of the hajj.
"All Indonesian pilgrims will gradually depart for Arafah on June 4, 2025. We pray that the peak of the hajj process will run smoothly and all Indonesian pilgrims will win a grand hajj," said PPIH Saudi Arabia Chairman Muchlis M Hanafi in Makkah as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, June 3.
Muchlis said that wukuf in Arafah will take place on June 5, 2025. From Arafah, he said, the congregation will move towards Muzdalifah, then to Mina. There are two schemes for the movement of worshipers from Arafah to Muzdalifah and Mina.
The first scheme is a regular movement scheme. In the regular movement scheme, the congregation departs from Makkah to Arafah to carry out wukuf.
After Maghrib, the congregation was dispatched to Muzdalifah to carry out the seeds or stay overnight. After passing through the middle of the night, the congregation moved to Mina forbit up to 12 or 13 Dzulhijah.
The second scheme is Murur. After performing the wukuf in Arafah and after entering Maghrib time, the congregation moved across Muzdalifah (not getting off the bus), then headed for Mina.
According to him, these two schemes were implemented after the government conducted a study and it was concluded that this did not violate the Shari'a of the pilgrimage.
