Bank Muamalat Held The Event of Wprld Hajj & Umroh Convention

Alhamdulillah Bank Muamalat has held the event of "World Hajj Umrah Convention" which held at the Ballroom Muamalat Tower-Jakarta (12/10/2017). The event was attended by representatives from several Middle Eastern countries such as Iraq, Mauritania, and Libya.

 

PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk (Bank Muamalat Indonesia) is a pioneer in Sharia Banking in Indonesia. Bank Muamalat commenced its journey as the first Sharia Bank in Indonesia on November 1, 1991 and continues to innovate and release sharia financial products, including for the Hajj and Umrah segments.

 

Indonesia sends the largest number of Hajj pilgrims to Saudi Arabia  every year and has received continuous support from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as reflected by our current hajj quota at 221,000 pilgrims. Going back to 4 years ago, the allocated number of portions stood was at 168,000.

However, this increase has been out paced by the number of Indonesian citizens wishing to embark on the pilgrimage as reflected by the number of those who have registered. Since 2005, three million of Indonesian citizens registered whereas only 2 million quota were issued in the same period.

 

The total number of pilgrims that are currently within the waiting period stands at 423,000  with an average waiting period of 17  years, with 7 years being the shortest waiting period and can be as extreme as 30 years.

 

Given the high demand of Indonesian citizens, Bank Muamalat delivers superior products and excellent service for Hajj and Umroh. BMI aspires to be the ultimate and ideal banking partner in providing solutions at all stages of the pilgrimage process. In September 2017, BMI has completed the development of 1HRAM (read: IHRAM) a 1 (one) stop service of Hajj and Umroh, and plan to launch before the end of the year.
