Islamic Pilgrimage
The Islamic Pilgrimage, known as Hajj, is a religious journey that Muslims are required to undertake at least once in their lifetime if they are physically and financially able. It takes place annually in the month of Dhu al-Hijjah in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. During this pilgrimage, millions of Muslims perform a series of rituals, including walking around the Kaaba, praying, and standing at the Plain of Arafat.
In addition to Hajj, there is also a lesser pilgrimage called Umrah, which can be performed at any time of the year. Both pilgrimages hold significant spiritual importance, symbolizing unity, humility, and devotion to Allah. The experience fosters a sense of community among Muslims from diverse backgrounds.
