Abstract
The Hajj pilgrimage is a mass gathering of Muslims from all over the world facing
extreme physical and environmental conditions. Indonesian Hajj pilgrims, as one of the
largest contributors, are dominated by older adults with comorbidities, so they are at
high risk of experiencing health problems during the Hajj pilgrimage. This study aimed
to describe the sociodemographic characteristics and types of diseases suffered by
prospective Hajj pilgrims in Batu City in 2025 to support more targeted health
intervention planning. This study is a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-
sectional approach involving 123 prospective Hajj pilgrims in Batu City in 2025 and
using the total sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires,
confirmed with the Batu City Health Office data, and analyzed univariately. The results
of the study showed the majority of respondents were women (51.22%), adults
(65.85%), and had a bachelor's degree (36.60%). Most prospective Hajj pilgrims suffer
from more than one chronic disease. The most common diseases suffered include
hypertension (55 people), obesity (35 people), musculoskeletal diseases (20 people),
sleep disorders (17 people), and digestive disorders (14 people). This finding
emphasizes the need to strengthen the Hajj health development program more
intensively and comprehensively, especially for high-risk groups.
