JABAR EKSPRES – The families of participants in adhoc sector 5 appreciated the Hajj Pilgrimage Organizers (PPIH) in Saudi Arabia who took care of the body of Wariah Binti Sanidi, an 80-year-old elderly from Karang Talun Village, East Java Province until the funeral.
“Hopefully our parents are husnul khatimah and placed in heaven. As a family, we accept the decision of Allah SWT, because that was my mother-in-law’s dream since she arrived in Indonesia,” said Samsudin Djamali Achmad Karjo, the son-in-law of the deceased Wariah Binti Sanidi, in Mina, Thursday (6/29).
He explained that his mother-in-law was initially in good health, even when in Medina she could perform the Arbain or obligatory prayers in 40 times and could perform the obligatory Umrah independently until she completed sa’i and tahallul.

“Yesterday he also stoned the aqabah jumrah by himself until it was finished and walked back to the tent. At dawn, my father-in-law went to the bathroom. When he came out, he suddenly started to feel unwell, so he was carried by his wife (daughter of the deceased, ed.) to the tent until he finally died,” Samsudin added.
According to Samsuddin, since he was in his homeland, his father-in-law often prayed that he would die in the holy land, even during the wukuf in Arafat, he also prayed that his path back to Him would be facilitated before returning to his homeland.
“Apparently his prayers were answered and Allah gave the best for him,” Samsudin said.
Chairman of Adhoc Sector 5 Mina Nur Arif Muhamad said that as the person in charge, he helped coordinate and build communication with maktab officers and cloter officers, so that the administrative process of managing the body of the deceased ran quickly and smoothly.
“After the body of the deceased was picked up by ambulance to be evacuated to the Indonesian Hajj Health Clinic (KKHI) in Mecca, the body was buried at Ma’la Cemetery, Mecca,” Arif said, while appreciating all officers, including Hajj Media Center (MCH) officers who had helped speed up the process of fardhu kifayah for Hajj participants who died in the Women’s Tent of Cloter 39 Embarkation Surabaya Maktab 34 Sector Adhoc-5 Mina.
