Eid ul Adha marks the end of Hajj one of the pillars of Islam. A time of year when millions upon millions Muslims from around the world gather together. Traveling from Makkah to Mount Arafat, spending time in Mina Valley.

It is utterly amazing how people of different races and creed come together and perform Hajj the exact same way. All you can see is the beauty of Hajj how it makes all equal, everyone one moving in one motion. The whole scene is amazing and beautiful.

Here are a few moments from Hajj in the past.

 

 

1. Millions upon millions arrive to perform Hajj every year

2. View from afar, those little dots on the ground are people, so many it’s hard to believe.

3. Rows upon rows of people, there are no differences.

4. Not a tile design, these are people praying as one….simply amazing

5. Looks like snow doesn’t! It’s not, it’s an aerial view of Mount Arafat with Pilgrims performing a part of Hajj

6. Praying on Mount Arafat during Hajj

7.  A sea of white tents in the Valley of Mina – 3 Million Hajjis can be accommodated here

8. Mina is known as the city of Tents – a stunning view from above

9. Safa Marwah – some walk some run, to recreate what Hajra went through when looking for water….green lights are used to indicate the area where she ran

10. Mount Safa can be seen behind the glass

11. Pilgrims going to perform the final stage of Hajj – Stoning of the Devil

12. Stoning the Devil – Jamarat

13. Stoning in the Valley of Mina – final days of Hajj
