Hajj rituals have started, 1 million pilgrims have started arriving in Mina in caravans after Hajj Tawaf.
After a long wait of 2 years for the payment of Hajj duty, the world’s largest tent city has been settled in Mina with modern facilities for the stay of Hajj pilgrims.
The pilgrims will stay and worship in Mina all day today. We will offer Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha and Fajr prayers in Mina.
Hajj pilgrims will reach Arafat Square on Thursday 9th Zul Hajj and perform Zuhr and Asr prayers in their tents and will stay in Arafat Square till Maghrib, where the pilgrims will arrange special prayers and worships in the presence of their Lord.
Pilgrims will perform Fajr prayers on Friday the 10th of Dhu’l-Hajj after the Fajr prayers until sunrise, which is called Waqf Muzdalifah. After that Rami will go back to Mina for Jamrat. He will hit 7 pebbles on the big Jamrat in Jamrat complex.
After Rami Jamrat, there is a sacrificial process, after which the pilgrims will open the ihram after shaving their hair. After shaving the hair, the main task of the pilgrims is Tawaf Ziarat. Pilgrims will return to Mina after paying the dues and completing the cycle of Sa’i. The night will stay there and after the time of fall on the next 2 days ie 11th and 12th Zul Hajj, the three stones will be hit by seven pebbles.
