JAKARTA - Minister of Religion Yaqut Cholil Qoumas asked the program compiled by the Hajj and Umrah Guidance Group (KBIHU) to pay more attention to the health conditions of the pilgrims.

"Our findings are that there are still many pilgrims who force themselves to carry out sunnah rituals, sunnah umrah is included in the program from the KBIHU. That, in our opinion, does not pay much attention to the condition of the pilgrims," said the Minister of Religion after an evaluation meeting on the implementation of the pilgrimage in Jeddah, Saturday, quoted by Antara.

According to the Minister of Religion, this is important in order to jointly maintain the health condition of the congregation. Moreover, after undergoing the peak of the pilgrimage in Arafah, Muzdalifah, and Mina, not a few pilgrims experience fatigue.

The Minister of Religion said that tonight there will be a meeting with the KBIHU to discuss together so that in organizing congregations for sunnah worship, we can pay attention to the condition of the congregation, not to be forced.

Moreover, said Gus Men, his nickname, permissible worship, such as sightseeing, city tours, and the like need to be limited because it is tiring.

The Minister of Religion also advised all officers to continue to improve services by being oriented to the congregation. One of them is to keep trying so that the congregation does not get tired and stay healthy.

"We will ask all officers, including KBIHU, so that services are oriented to the physical abilities of the congregation," he said.

Based on data from the Ministry of Religion's Siskohat, to date, 55 pilgrims have died. A total of 27 worshipers died in the phase before Armuzna, in the range of June 4 to July 7, 2022.

A total of 16 pilgrims died during the Armuzna phase, July 8-12 2022. And 12 pilgrims died after Armuzna, July 13 until today.

The meeting was attended by the delegation of Amirul Hajj, the Indonesian Ambassador to Saudi Abdul Aziz, the Indonesian Consul General in Jeddah Eko Hartono, the supervisory team, the staff of the Minister of Religion, the Director General of Hajj and Umrah Organization Hilman Latief and his staff, as well as the Saudi Arabia Hajj Organizing Committee (PPIH).
