Brilio.net - Atta Halilintar and Aurel Hermansyah have finally completed the peak of the Hajj pilgrimage at Arafah this year. Even though they only went together without their parents, this couple didn't seem to experience any difficulties during their first Hajj trip.
The eldest child of Gen Halilintar feels very grateful to be able to implement the 5th pillar of Islam at such a young age. He also asked forgiveness from the Almighty for all the sins he had committed so far. As a public figure, Atta hopes to have a good influence on many people.
"Thank God, our Hajj series is over. Never thought that under the age of 30, Allah would call us to perform the Hajj. Forgive us, O Allah, and may we become better human beings who are more useful to people," he wrote as quoted by brilio.net from the account Instagram @attahalilintar, Friday (21/6).

Apart from his inspiring spiritual journey, the appearance of Tariq Halilintar's older brother cannot escape being in the public spotlight. Atta doesn't seem to shave off his hair during tahallul.
Tahallul is the final part of the Hajj pilgrimage series. Male congregants generally cut their hair after performing tahallul.
But that's not the case with Atta. This father of two chose to keep his long hair after carrying out the Hajj. This certainly makes many people wonder.
"Hopefully it will be a Mabrur Hajj... why isn't his hair bald?," asked @imron_rosyiidi.
"How come Papa isn't bald like Raffi," said @riie_99.
"I saw bald artists who were performing the Hajj... Bang Atta is the only one who isn't bald," said @hannavia_via.

Responding to netizens regarding his hair being long, Atta also gave the reason. It turns out he followed Gus Miftah who also didn't shave his head.
"Because Gus Miftah is also long-haired," said Atta Halilintar when met by media crew at Soekarno Hatta Airport, Tanggerang, Thursday (20/6).
After asking Gus Miftah , Atta found out that Tahallul didn't have to cut his hair completely. That's why he chose not to bald his hair.
"He says it's Sunnah. We just do what is obligatory, it's already tahallul, we just don't go bald," explained Atta.
