The Hajj
2 million Muslims around the world accomplish pilgrimage in
Mecca each year. All of that happens in the 12th month of Hijri year
and lasts about 7 days. All Muslims who are fit are able to do the hajj ;they
should do it once in their life; mass control and immunization are the main
problems each year for the Saudi government. Before entering Mecca pilgrims stop to go through the official
process such as cleansing themselves and wearing white robes for men and white dresses for
women without covering their face. This is all to show the equity between all Muslims
during. First pilgrims walk 7 times around the Ka’aba, they also travel 7 times
between the Safa and Marwah. Then they go to Mina and stay one night. In the
next day morning they go to Arafat, on the same day evening they camp at
Muzdalifah. After they go to throw stones at pillars. Each pilgrim must
sacrifice a sheep. Finally they go to Mecca and achieve the final ceremonial which
is the Tawaf around the Ka’ aba.
