Hajj festival


Today (July 10) is the Hajj festival, which is celebrated with great fervour.


The main purpose of Hajj is to create equality and brotherhood by removing the existing gap and differences.


The annual Hajj pilgrimage held in Mecca, Saudi Arabia is considered to be the grandest occasion of the Hajj, which symbolizes the dedication of the Prophet, his son Ismail, to God.


Hajj is the fifth of the five great obligations of Islam.


Muslims celebrate the Hajj festival on the tenth day of the month of Dhul Hajj, the last month of the Islamic calendar.
