TH staff hold Solat Hajat, ready to welcome pilgrims in Madinah

MADINAH, June 4 (Bernama) — While making preparation to welcome the first group of Malaysian haj pilgrims, about 100 staff of Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) took some time off their busy schedule to perform congregational solat hajat (prayer of needs).

Last night, all of them also recited the Yasin and tahlil and prayed for the management operation to take place in an orderly manner.

The ceremony was held at the surau of the TH Headquarters in the Roha Madinah building after maghrib prayers, led by Pembimbing Ibadat Haji Tanah Suci (haj guide) Ustaz Mohd Hishamuddin Mansor.

Meanwhile, Madinah director of Operations Mohamed Heikal Mohamed Yusuff said although TH had made thorough preparations, they still needed to pray to Allah for things to run smoothly and that all pilgrims and staff were given good health while in the Holy Land.

“At the same time, this ceremony also provided a space for old and new staff to strengthen their brotherhood,” he said when met by reporters here.

The first group of 295 pilgrims are scheduled to arrive via Saudia Airlines flight at the Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Madinah at about 4.55 pm local time.

Various programmes have been arranged by TH for Malaysian pilgrims during their six days and five nights in Madinah before continuing their journey to Makkah to perform umrah on June 10.
