        "summary": "Indonesian Hajj officials in Saudi Arabia have advised pilgrims to rest after completing their stay in Mina before performing Tawaf Ifadah to ensure their physical well-being and safety. The directive, based on technical considerations, aims to prevent exhaustion from the lengthy journey between Mina and the Grand Mosque. Tawaf Ifadah is a mandatory rite of Hajj, followed by Sa'i and Tahallul, which together complete the pilgrimage.",
        "content": "<p>Makkah - Indonesian Hajj Organizing Agency (PPIH) in Saudi Arabia has\nurged Indonesian Hajj pilgrims who have completed their overnight stay\nin Mina to restore their physical condition before proceeding with Tawaf\nIfadah at the Grand Mosque.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey will return to Makkah and rest adequately at their hotels\nbefore performing Tawaf Ifadah. We advise this for safety and security\nreasons, ensuring Tawaf Ifadah is conducted only after all Mina\nactivities are fully completed,\u201d said Erti Herlina, Head of the Hajj and\nUmrah Guidance Group (Bimbad and KBIHU) for Makkah Working Area of the\nIndonesian Hajj Organizing Agency (PPIH) in Saudi Arabia, on\nSaturday.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that the directive to perform Tawaf Ifadah after\ncompleting nafar awal and nafar tsani in Mina is based on technical\nconsiderations to maintain pilgrims\u2019 fitness. The considerable distance\nbetween Mina and the Grand Mosque is considered to drain energy if\npilgrims attempt Tawaf during their stay in Mina. Erti added that this\napproach has proven effective in maintaining pilgrims\u2019 health and\nfitness. Erti also reminded that performing Tawaf Ifadah is an absolute\npillar determining the validity of the Hajj pilgrimage. The process\ninvolves not only circumambulating the Kaaba but also Sa\u2019i (walking\nbetween Safa and Marwah hills) and concluding with Tahallul (shaving the\nhead). \u201cThus, the entire pilgrimage rites are completed after performing\nthe second Tahallul following Tawaf Ifadah,\u201d she said.<\/p>",
