Muslims advised to change perception that performing Haj is to cure illness or to die in Holy Land | Malay Mail

This is because the pilgrimage, as the fifth pillar of Islam, is compulsory for all able Muslims, health-wise, and good health or istita’ah is a requirement to perform it. “The purpose of performing the Haj is to attain Haj mabrur, not to cure illness or to die there. We will help the pilgrims enjoy good health and attain the Haj mabrur,” he told Bernama recently.

“They have to stabilise the medical condition, and if need be, seek a specialist doctor who can tell them what to do. If not, they are deemed incapable of performing the Haj and it is not compulsory for them,” he said. He said the facilities provided by the Health Ministry and Tabung Haji are focused on treating the illnesses contracted by the pilgrims while in the Holy Land, rather than treating diseases brought from Malaysia.
