Haj Pilgrimage Commenced With Lakhs Of Muslims From The World
Jeddah/Hyderabad, June 26 (Maxim News): The annual Haj pilgrimage commenced early today, with lakhs of Muslims from around the world, including nearly 7,000 from Telangana, taking part for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic.
After Covid restrictions have been relaxed completely in most parts of the world, millions from across the world are slated to travel to Islam’s holiest site.
Pilgrims flocked to Mina as the sun rose on Monday following Tawaf A1 Qudum, the first step of the five-day Haj pilgrimage after cladding Iharam. Ihram is the white cloth referring to a sacred state that Muslims enter and remain in during the special rituals and events that are required to complete Haj and Umrah.
Embarking on a journey to Mina is a crucial part of the Haj, where they will spend an entire day and night praying and preparing for the most significant day of the pilgrimage. Mina, 8 Km away from the Grand Mosque, is a historical and religious landmark in Makkah Valley, also known as a tent city where pilgrims will camp in the state of Ihram until the Haj ritual completes. From Mina, pilgrims gather at Mount Arafat, where Prophet Mohammed delivered his final sermon. (Maxim News)
