The First Step Towards the Umrah & Hajj: Make Sure Your Health Is Ready
Why is it so important to get a health check-up? Because there, pilgrims will face hot weather, crowded places, and a lot of physical activity. If the body isn’t properly prepared, the risk of falling ill is very high.
According to a Bernama article, the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) said that so far, three percent of the 31,600 prospective Malaysian Hajj pilgrims have reportedly failed the health screening to perform the fifth pillar of Islam for the 2026 season.
