        "summary": "The Indonesian Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has urged regional authorities to minimise and shorten farewell ceremonies for departing Hajj pilgrims to prevent fatigue. Deputy Minister Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak highlighted that excessive events could compromise the fitness of pilgrims, many of whom are elderly, high-risk, or disabled and require adequate rest before their long journey to the Holy Land. This measure aims to ensure the well-being of participants in one of Indonesia's most significant religious undertakings.",
        "content": "<p>The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah (Kemenhaj) has urged authorities in\nthe regions to ensure that the ceremonial send-offs for Indonesian Hajj\npilgrims are not overly numerous or prolonged. Deputy Minister of Hajj\nand Umrah Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak stated that the abundance of such\nevents could impact the physical condition of the pilgrims, who need\ntime to rest. \u201cPlease do not have too many ceremonies in each respective\nregion related to the send-off of the pilgrims, so that the pilgrims do\nnot have to wait too long and do not become exhausted because too many\nceremonies cause the pilgrims to tire easily,\u201d said Dahnil on Wednesday\n(22\/4\/2026). The departure of Indonesian Hajj pilgrims is often\naccompanied by send-off ceremonies, both at the district\/city level and\nat embarkation points. In fact, some are conducted repeatedly. On the\nother hand, he noted that many pilgrims are elderly, high-risk\nindividuals, and those with disabilities who require rest time before\nthe long journey to the Holy Land.<\/p>",
