Ministry of Hajj and Umrah Delays Departure of Three Prospective Hajj Pilgrims from Central Lombok

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah (Kemenhaj) has delayed the departure of three prospective Hajj pilgrims (CJH) from Central Lombok, as they are still undergoing intensive treatment at the West Nusa Tenggara Provincial General Hospital (RSUD NTB). They are scheduled to depart on the next kloter while awaiting their recovery process.

“Three more are still receiving treatment at the NTB Provincial RSUD. If their health permits and improves, they will depart while monitoring their health progress,” said the Head of Kemenhaj Central Lombok, Lalu Syamsul Hadi, to detikBali on Thursday (30/4/2026).

Kemenhaj Central Lombok has already dispatched 786 CJH from two full kloters. The next departures will be for kloter 12 with 227 people and kloter 15 (mixed) with 124 people.

In general, Syamsul stated, the condition of the Hajj pilgrims who have departed to the Holy Land is fine. All administrative requirements have been completed since embarkation at the Hajj Dormitory.

“So all visa and nusuk requirements have been provided at embarkation in the Hajj dormitory. So after departing, the pilgrims have no more administrative processes; they can just perform their worship,” Syamsul emphasised.
