MEKKAH - Inspector General (Irjen) of the Ministry of Religion (Kemenag), Faisal Ali Hasyim reminded that Hajj officers are ready to serve pilgrims when the peak of the pilgrimage is in Arafah, Muzdalifah and Mina (Armuzna).

"Later on the peak of the pilgrimage on the 9th of Dzulhijjah, I hope my friends (hajj officers) can maintain a sufficient rhythm of work and rest," said Faisal in Mecca as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, June 17.

Despite maintaining service rhythm, Faisal said officers must still be responsible, so that at the peak of the hajj, the officers are mentally ready.

Faisal, who directly monitors the services of officers when the arrival of additional groups in sector 4 of Mecca, said that Hajj officers were quite alert to serve the elderly pilgrims.

"They have served the congregation according to standard operating procedures (SOPs)," said Faisal.

He said the Hajj officer prioritized the elderly pilgrims to get off the bus, then be taken in and to the hotel first.

According to Faisal, although there are limited number of officers at the hotel, the Hajj officers can take the initiative quickly.

The Ministry of Religion's Inspector General reminded that the challenges of the Hajj officers were not small when in Arafah, Muzdalifah and Mina, because all the pilgrims would be Armuzna to carry out the peak of the pilgrimage, including the elderly pilgrims.

Meanwhile, the Head of Protection for Saudi Arabian PPIH pilgrims Harun Ar Rashid who inspected the location of the Armuzna implementation said there would be 70 maktab from 902 to 910 roads with even numbers.

One maktab in Arafah and Mina consists of seven groups or about three thousand people (hajj) who will be handled by 11 adhocs consisting of 48-50 officers.

He said officers would comb all congregational hotels in Mecca to ensure all pilgrims follow the implementation of the peak of the pilgrimage in Armuzna and carry out a wuskuf safari for sick pilgrims.
