A Photo Tour of the World's Largest Annual Gathering (The Islamic Pilgrimage in Makkah, Saudi Arabia)

And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Kabah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those who can afford the expenses (for ones conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever disbelieves (i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah), then Allah stands not in need of any of the Alameen (mankind and Jinns). (Quran: 3/97)












Nearly three million Muslim pilgrims performed the hajj on Tuesday and alhamdulillah no major incident was reported this year. May Allah reward Saudi hosts who did their best to make the journey peaceful.



All praise is due to Allah Who enabled me to perform and witness the rituals for the first time in my life.



Here is the photo tour of the worlds largest annual gathering:
