Immediately after completing the 2023 Hajj rituals, a female Ghanaian pilgrim, Rukaya Adamu who is in her later 30s delivered a bouncing baby girl in Mecca under the supervision of the Ghana Hajj medical team and health officials of the health facility in Mecca where she delivered.
Rukaya Adamu arrived for this year’s Hajj with pregnancy with due time to deliver though the expected day of delivery was scheduled on July 17, 2023, she might have been in Accra but delivered on July 4, 2023.
The Ghana Hajj medical team gave her and all the pregnant pilgrims all the attention and monitoring since the day of their departure from Ghana to Saudi Arabia until Rukaya Adamu was fortunate to deliver her baby in the Holy land of Mecca. The newly born baby has since been named Yasrin by the Islamic scholars in Mecca with the permission of her father who is in Ghana.
In an interview with Rukaya Adamu, she said it is a privilege and honour to give birth in the month of Hajj.
” I never expected that I will give birth here in Mecca because my date for delivery is far and I expected it in Ghana but all the same, Allah has done it for me for delivering in the sacred land of Mecca.” She said
” I tried embarking on this Holy journey five years ago and this year when I was pregnant, Allah called me together with my mother-in-law. I initially did not want to come due to the pregnancy but my elder sister insisted I come”. She added.
Rukaya Adamu is thankful to the medical team of the Ghana Hajj Board led by the medical director, Dr. Seidu Zakaria for giving her and other pregnant pilgrims all the care and support before, during and after the Hajj rituals.
The head of the Ghana Hajj medical team, Dr. Seidu Zakaria was full of joy for Rukaya Adamu’s successful delivery and has credited the success to his staff and staff of the hospital where Rukaya Adamu delivered.
Dr Seidu Zakaria intimated that all pilgrims have received the needed health care especially the aged who with the aid of the medical team were able to perform all the Hajj rituals and are currently in good health ready to perform the TAWAF Wada and off to Ghana.
