Upon Departure

1. Haji Passport
2. Hand Carry - Enough Baju for sampai di Madinah.

4. Name bracelet
5. Yellow health book.

What to pack?

1. Best to pack and put in transparent plastics. Best way to travel also!
2. Enough baju for a month's worth so maybe several cara melayu, baju kurung, jubah, baju pakistan, trousers. So basically baju for ke masjid
3. Baju for jalan jalan
4. Baju tidur
5. Toiletries - but not to worry if can buy there.
6. 4 telekung should be enough. Maybe 2 with the Brunei flag stitched.
7. Medications, medicines & vitamins
8. Slippers yang tahan air especially for after berwudhu - selipar jepun. Scholl are comfy tapi style lama pulang but hey comfort comes 1st, fashion last esp in this situation
9. Comfortable shoes good for jalan jalan and also during meluntar & wukuf
10. Tudong, serukup and aurat covers for hand
11. Padlocks and keys
12. Cream kaki for cracked heals
13. Food?? but most people say inda payah you will have enough, some people will bring it and you can always buy food. Barat saja..
14. Socks and plenty of em
15. Underwears including disposable ones.
16. O o heard its a bit chilly this time of year so bring some warm clothes. not too many but enough..

17. White singlets
18. Small hand towels for wudhu inside masjid in your seat.
19. Small folded scissors for tahlul after Saie or after meluntar 1st Jamrah
20. Money belt may be useful.

Masa wukuf di arafah, ke mina for haj or umrah

1. 2 - 3 white baju for women includes jubah, baju kurung, Telekung or anything white for masa waktu Ihram.
2. Disposable undies would be useful
3. Sport shoes or any tough reasonable good shoes for meluntar. Try it before you pack i.e if orang tepijak from any angle during meluntar it wont come off.
4. Men not required. hehehe as you know men only wear 2 white towels during Ihram
5. For men during wukuf - bring 1 - 2 baju cara melayu which can be used after tahlul awal which is after the 1st meluntar jamratul aqabah
6. Proper and tough hand carry which we can drag - who knows you have to walk a long way from the bus to the tent.
7. Toiletries - pack light. bring in small travel containers.
8. Very light towel.
9. Torch lights for ambil batu for meluntar.
10. Small bags to put the batu in
MAIN POINT is to PACK LIGHT - SERIOUSLY!
