JAKARTA - A prospective pilgrim from Kerinci Regency, Jambi Province on behalf of Khairusni Bilal Usman (67) who was included in Kloter BTH-19 was reported to have died in the Arafah tent, Saudi Arabia due to a heart attack.

"When the cluster health workers arrived and conducted the initial examination, the patient could not feel his pulse and was given three cycles of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but there was no response," wrote the health team in Saudi Arabia, Fuji Ramdhani in a chronology report received in Jambi, Thursday, quoted by Antara.

Based on the chronological sheet, the deceased died on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at around 21.30 WAS (Saudi Arabia Time). At that time he was with his husband in a maktab tent in Arafah. Suddenly the deceased complained of weakness and shortness of breath, until he later lost consciousness.

Receiving reports from other pilgrims, the kloter health workers immediately rushed to the location to conduct an initial examination. However, the patient's pulse was not palpable, and the medical team immediately performed emergency rescue.

Not long after, the Indonesian Hajj Health Sector and Health Clinic (KKHI) arrived at the location to provide additional assistance. Further treatment steps were also carried out, including using the instructions of the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) or automatic pacemaker.

Despite the maximum efforts that have been deployed, the patient still did not respond and was declared dead in front of the family at 21.30 WAS.

Referring to the official document Certificate of Death (Death Certificate) with international medical standards ICD-10 issued by the Medical Team of the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia, the main cause of death of the deceased was acute heart failure.

Medical records in Saudi Arabia also showed that the late Queen had contact with health services with health workers twice, namely on May 16, 2026 due to complaints of dyspepsia (digestion disorder/stomach) and on May 22, 2026 due to complaints of Low Back Pain.

Head of the Jambi Provincial Office of the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah (Kemenhaj), Wahyudi Abdul Wahab, said that as a form of responsibility and service to pilgrims who died before completing the entire series of Hajj rituals, the Hajj Organizing Committee (PPIH) ensured that the deceased's Hajj rituals would be carried out by officially appointed officers.

"We also mourn the death of the late Khairusni Bilal Usman from Kerinci Regency. May the late be husnul khatimah, forgiven for all his mistakes," said Wahyudi.
