KUDUS - Minister of Religion Yaqut Cholil Qoumas revealed that an additional quota of 8,000 people had made a proposed distribution scheme for each region in the country.
"The proposal to distribute the additional quota for Hajj must go through the DPR," he said during a working visit to IAIN Kudus, Central Java, as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, May 11.
Meanwhile, the DPR, he said, scheduled it for May 17, 2023.
After approval with the DPR, each region will get an additional quota for Hajj.
Kudus Regency itself in 2023 received 1,275 hajj quotas. However, those who have paid have not yet 100 percent, so when there is an additional hajj quota it is possible that the number of pilgrims who depart does not exceed the quota received initially.
The Head of the Hajj and Umrah Organization of the Office of the Ministry of Religion of Kudus Regency, Asrul Fatkhi, revealed that pilgrims who had not paid for the cost of the pilgrimage were delayed because they were waiting for other family members to leave in the same year and some died.

"We have indeed heard about the addition of the Hajj quota which Kudus will also get additional. However, the amount is not yet known whether the addition can exceed the quota received or not because it is the one who delays and for other reasons is also numerous," he said.
In order to prepare prospective pilgrims before leaving for the Holy Land of Makkah, the guidance for Hajj is held for four days.
