The Ministry of Health directed six tips to the pilgrims to avoid heat exhaustion while performing the rituals, the most prominent of which are: drinking fluids and using umbrellas.

The Qassim Health Assembly stated (through its Twitter account) that in order to avoid heat exhaustion, the following tips must be followed: Avoid heat and crowds, avoid direct exposure to the sun, and be careful to use light-colored umbrellas.

And make sure to wear light-coloured clothes (for women), take a break, and make sure to drink liquids and juices that contain the necessary salts.

The Qassim Health Caucus added that the places where thermal injuries abound are: circumambulation, especially at noon, and the height of Arafat at noon, and the endeavor, especially when overcrowding and high air temperature, and the shrine of Mina (places of slaughter and embers) due to the long distance and crowding when stoning the Jamarat.
