This year, there is severe heat all over the world including India. At the same time, the number of people dying during Haj pilgrimage in Mecca is continuously increasing. According to the information, the number of people dying during Haj in Mecca has now crossed 900. Most of the people who died are from Egypt. Today we will tell you why more deaths have occurred among Egyptians.
Death of Haj Pilgrims
According to the information, Haj Pilgrims are dying in Saudi Arabia due to extreme heat and lack of good arrangements for Haj Pilgrims. According to a list released by the Saudi government, more than 900 people have died.
Most deaths of Egyptians
Most deaths among the pilgrims who went on Haj pilgrimage have occurred among Egyptians. According to the report of news agency AFP, at least 600 people from Egypt have died. AFP reported that so far 992 deaths have occurred during Haj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia. A Saudi Arabian diplomat said that 68 Indian citizens have died during Haj pilgrimage.
Let us tell you that the people of Egypt, Jordan and Indonesia have been affected the most by the rising temperature. Because the people there are not used to facing such heat. Let us tell you that the maximum temperature in the Jordan Valley goes up to 38-39 degrees Celsius in summer. Apart from this, the maximum temperature in the desert areas of the country remains between 26-29 degrees Celsius. In the coastal areas of Egypt, the average temperature in winter is minimum 14 degrees Celsius and the maximum average temperature in summer is 30 degrees Celsius. In Indonesia, the average temperature throughout the year remains between 27-28 degrees Celsius. Even in dry heat, it does not exceed 33-34 degrees Celsius.
Temperature is the cause of death
Temperature is the cause of death of Haj pilgrims. Where the people of Egypt are not used to a temperature of more than 30 degrees, they have to face a temperature of 50 degrees in Mecca. But their body is not ready for this, that is why the people of Egypt are dying the most. They are feeling uneasy due to the scorching sun and temperature, after which their body stops working and they are dying.
Let us tell you that according to the rules of the Saudi Arabian government, one person can go on Haj pilgrimage for every one thousand population of Muslim countries. Indonesia has the highest Muslim population in the world, so the maximum number of pilgrims from there go on Haj. Similarly, more pilgrims from Egypt and Jordan also reach Haj. This is also a reason behind the high number of deaths in these countries.
