JAKARTA - Hajj pilgrims can pay dams or fines after tahallul or shave their hair after performing the obligatory umrah.

"Slaughtering can be carried out after the peak of the pilgrimage on 10-13 Dzulhijjah and together with the sacrifice," said Consultant Advisor for Mecca Daker Worship, Aswadi in Mecca, Antara, Thursday, June 23.

According to him, the dam was applied to Indonesian pilgrims because they performed the final pilgrimage, namely Umrah first, then Hajj. "This is done so that the congregation performs their Hajj perfectly," he said.

In addition to paying for the dam by slaughtering animals, there are several alternatives for those who cannot afford it, namely feeding the poor. If you can't, then you can fast.

"Islamic law makes it easy to do according to the level of ability. Don't let the pilgrimage be considered a hindrance," he said.

The government of Saudi Arabia appealed to pilgrims to pay the check through a bank or a designated institution for the convenience of the congregation. Payment of dam through the bank according to the rules set by the government of Saudi Arabia.

The Saudi government through the Motawif Pilgrims for South East Asian Countries Company (Motowifs Pilgrims For South East Asian Countries Company) has also issued a directive on Dam and Qurban Year 1443H.

The letter was addressed to Representatives of the Hajj Missions of Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand.
