Jakarta – The Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) wants pilgrims to participate in Safari Wukuf in the coming years. One is by strengthening the investigation into pilgrims’ ability to follow a series of pilgrims or istitaah. “Instead, we want to reduce it because we want to improve the pilgrimage of the congregation, so as the year to year Safari Wukuf increases, it means that the pilgrims are also less successful, but we want to reduce the number of Safari -Wukuf,” Hajj and Umrah Hilman said after the return of the Safari Wukuf participants at Monday, 9/2025. Hilman said that the condition of the pilgrims who were physically strong would facilitate the congregation itself in the pilgrimage. The series of pilgrims like Tawaf, Sai, who throws Jumrah, did indeed claim the physical abilities of pilgrims.

He said Safari Wukuf was prepared because many elderly pilgrims were sick and at high risk if they followed Wukuf in tents like other pilgrims. He hoped that Safari Wukuf participants would not increase in the next pilgrimage. “Perhaps also in the future with a better istitaah, the proposal of Safari Wukuf is getting smaller and what we can hopefully reduce Safari Wukufkan,” he said. The HAJJ Organizing Officer (PPIH) previously said there were 477 elderly pilgrims and high risks participating in the Safari Wukuf at the highlight of the Hajj. Hajj officials stated that they had thrown Jumrah and Tawaf Ifadah, the participants of the Safari Wukuf would be given or represented by others. “The elderly Safari Wukuf program was followed by 477 worshipers. They were sent to Arafat using 15 buses. They were accompanied by 118 Safari Wukuf Task Force Special Elderly,” PPIH chairman Muchlis M Hanafi said on Saturday (7/6). Those who followed Safari Wukuf were taken to Arafat by bus before noon. After that, the congregation Wukuf underwent the bus without joining the tent with other pilgrims. It was meant that the congregation would not be tired. The congregation that followed the Safari Wukuf was a congregation with non-independent conditions to do daily activities such as eating, drinking, urination and large and moving.
