Sutiah admitted that he just found out that he was one of the oldest worshipers this year. He was grateful that he could go on the pilgrimage at the age of more than a century. The Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) itself has committed to organizing elderly -friendly Hajj. A number of schemes to make it easier for the elderly pilgrims have been prepared, from Safari Wukuf, Muru at Mabit at Muzdalifah and Tanazul during Mabit in Mina. Wall is a scheme that only crosses the Pilgrims of Arafat Muzdalifah and then goes to the peak of the pilgrimage to Mina. The congregation left for Muzdalifah from Arafat after sunset without going down, and went directly to Mina. There are 25 percent or about 50 thousand Indonesian pilgrims who will participate in the Murue. One of the objectives is to unravel the density of pilgrims in Muzdalifah, which is very limited. The government also prepared the Tanazul Mina scheme. The congregation that entered the Tanazul scheme is aimed at reaching 37 thousand. The congregation that participated in Tanazul will remain in the hotel during the Mabit process. (HAF/ISA) HOEGENG Awards 2025 Read the inspiring story of the exemplary police candidate here
