MECCA, June 9 — Another Malaysian Haj pilgrim has died in Makkah, bringing the total number of Malaysian deaths during the 1446H/2025M Haj season to ten.
Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs), Datuk Dr Mohd Na’im Mokhtar, said the deceased, Abdul Malik Sudin, 62, died of a heart attack at King Abdullah Hospital.
He was a pilgrim from Maktab 90A and had been staying at the Rehab Al-Janadriyah building. He had completed the wukuf ritual in Arafah last Thursday.

To date, nine Malaysian pilgrims have died of heart attacks, while one succumbed to a bacterial infection and organ failure.
