From Arafah's Call, BPKH Head Encourages Students to Register for Hajj Early

The Indonesian Hajj Financial Management Agency (BPKH) organized an event titled "Call from Arafah" at the Mahasina Darul Qur’an wal Hadits Islamic boarding school in Bekasi.

The weather in the Holy Land, especially in Arafah, is quite challenging. Currently, it is around 40 degrees Celsius. However, the pilgrims appear to remain enthusiastic in carrying out their worship.

The event allowed hundreds of students to witness a live broadcast of the Wukuf sermon from Arafah, the peak of the Hajj pilgrimage. The session was moderated by broadcaster Sahil Muchsin Mulachela, who engaged in a conversation with BPKH head Fadlul Imansyah about the current situation in Arafah.

Imansyah described the challenging weather conditions in Arafah, with temperatures around 40 degrees Celsius, but noted the pilgrims' continued enthusiasm. He assured that the pilgrimage was proceeding smoothly, with Hajj officials ensuring services like healthcare, food, and transportation were well-managed, allowing pilgrims to focus on their worship.

We ask pilgrims to get enough rest, maintain fluid intake, and follow the directions of officials on the ground.

Imansyah stressed the significance of the Wukuf in Arafah as the culmination of the Hajj journey for many who have waited years. He advised pilgrims to maintain their physical health, stay hydrated, and follow the guidance of officials. Responding to a request for prayers for the students to receive their Hajj panggilan (call), Imansyah urged them to register early, stating, "If you have registered, then it can be known when the estimated departure is."

Amen, amen. But don't forget to register first. If you have registered, then it can be known when the estimated departure is.
