Hajj 2025: Egyptian Health Ministry Launches New App for Pilgrims Ahead of Hajj Season
By Abdullahi Yusuf
• The Ministry of Health and Population launched a new digital application designed to streamline medical check-ups for pilgrims.
The Egyptian health ministry’s spokesperson, Hossam Abdel-Ghaffar, explained that the app is connected to a database that contains all essential information about pilgrims.
Abdel-Ghaffar added that this database facilitates better coordination among government entities, ensuring the secure and accurate verification of medical records.
Furthermore, he noted that the app would accelerate registration for Hajj and reduce overcrowding at service centres.
Similarly, Assistant Minister of Health for Information Systems and Digital Transformation Ashraf Abdel-Alim emphasised that the app represents a significant advancement in organising the upcoming Hajj season.
Abdel-Alim added that the app enables designated hospitals conducting medical evaluations for pilgrims to register pilgrims’ data electronically and connect with a central system for managing the Hajj season.
Moreover, he noted that the health ministry has already distributed login credentials to participating hospitals and conducted intensive training programmes for medical and administrative staff to ensure the app is used effectively.
Hajj is one of Islam’s five pillars, and all Muslims who have the means must undertake it at least once.
It involves a series of rituals completed over at least four days in Mecca and its surroundings in the west of Saudi Arabia.
