Performing Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam, which requires every Muslim who is physically and financially able to make the journey to the holy city of Mecca at least once in his or her life.

The Hajj pilgrimage draws millions of Muslims from around the world every year to Mecca, the birthplace of the Prophet Muhammad, Islam's holiest place. Saudi Arabia hosts millions of people in a ritual journey that every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it must make at least once in their lifetime. It is the largest annual gathering of humanity anywhere. Timed to the Muslim lunar calendar, the Hajj is followed by the celebrations of the three-day festival of Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of Sacrifice, which symbolizes Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son.
Collected here are video recordings about the Hajj in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, as well as about the preparations for the Hajj and Eid al-Adha.
THE DAY OF ARAFAH
The second day of Hajj is more commonly known as the day of Arafah. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ gave his final sermon before passing from this world on the Mount of Arafah. While fasting isn’t required for the Muslims performing Hajj, it is a very encouraged and virtuous act for all other Muslims around the world. Muslims spend the Day of Arafah asking Allah for forgiveness and being grateful for all the blessings He has bestowed upon us.
Hajj is a journey that every Muslim dreams of. It’s an extremely spiritual and blessed time of the year and we must all pray to Allah SWT that he gives us the physical, mental, and financial means to be able to complete this important pillar of Islam.
