Health Ministry warns of avoiding direct sun exposure during peak Hajj hours

Saudi Gazette Report MAKKAH — The Ministry of Health has issued a critical advisory, urging all Hajj pilgrims to avoid direct sun exposure between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., when temperatures at the holy sites peak so as to enhance the prevention of heat exhaustion and sunstroke among worshipers. The ministry underscored the vital importance of adhering to several key preventive measures. These include using umbrellas, drinking sufficient amounts of water, and strictly adhering to grouping instructions provided by authorities. These guidelines are integral to the health sector's comprehensive efforts to protect pilgrims and enhance their safety while performing the Hajj rituals. The Ministry of Health announced on Thursday, the Day of Arafat, a remarkable 90 percent decrease in the number of heat exhaustion cases among pilgrims during the 2025 Hajj season, compared to last year. This significant reduction is attributed to the concerted efforts of the health sector, working in close collaboration with various government agencies, to proactively address health risks. Even before the pilgrims' movement to Mina, to mark the beginning of the annual pilgrimage of Hajj on Wednesday, the Ministry of Health had intensified its comprehensive field and awareness initiatives to safeguard pilgrims' health and prevent heat stress. This effort aligned with Vision 2030's Health Sector Transformation Program and the Pilgrim Experience Program that aimed for a safe and healthy Hajj. The ministry cautioned that symptoms of heat stress include headache, dizziness, excessive sweating, thirst, and nausea. Upon noticing these, pilgrims should immediately move to a shaded area, cool down with water, and drink plenty of fluids, it said. Pilgrims are also advised to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 am and 4 pm, refrain from walking on hot surfaces, and exercise caution when engaging in strenuous activities. The ministry affirmed that the health sector is highly prepared, with over 34 equipped field health units strategically distributed across the holy sites. These units provide urgent medical care and rapid response for heat stress cases.
