Approximately dual million Muslims have come together in Makkah to perform a holy event of Hajj, a eremite tour Muslims worship for a life time.
Amidst predicament struck nations, mired in chaos, Hajj managed to accumulate millions to intone Takbeer in God’s name and cushion as one community. The pilgrims will perform a same rituals achieved 1,400 years ago when Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did them.
From morning until dark, a humongous throng gathers in Mount Arafat and dutifully prays to clean their souls.
Hajj, in a truest essence, requires pilgrims to absolved themselves of any mercenary effects and furnish a seamless cloth via a routine of pilgrimage.
