Indonesia's Ministry of Hajj and Umrah opens the second phase of regular Hajj payment from January 2-9, 2026, following the first phase's closure with 149,159 pilgrims or 73.99 percent of the national quota. The policy offers leniency to those affected by disasters in Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. Director General of Hajj Services Ian Heriyawan stresses preparing documents like health certificates.
Chiki Fawzi's role as a Hajj organizer (PPIH) for 2026 ended in disappointment after she was dismissed, briefly recalled, and then canceled again. This aligns with the Ministry of Hajj's policy to only send training participants who meet strict criteria. Chiki expressed acceptance despite confusion over the process.
