Sri Wahyuningsih, 51, a teacher, sits at her desk on the last day of work before departing for haj, in Jakarta, Indonesia, June 10, 2022. After waiting more than a decade, Sri’s parents were supposed to make the trip to Mecca in 2020 but that was cancelled because the coronavirus pandemic halted most international travel. Sri’s father will never make the journey after dying from a stroke in March and her mother was denied permission to attend after Saudi Arabian authorities imposed an age limit of 65. Sutrisno and Sri are joyful at undertaking the haj in the place of Sri’s parents but they are saddened by the loss of Sri’s father and the possibility her mother will never complete the pilgrimage. “It’s such a huge moral burden to me,” said Sri.
