As they prepared for the Haj in Saudi Arabia on Thursday, tens of thousands of Muslim travelers clambered up mountains and nestled between rock in the scorching sun. They climbed Mount Arafat to carry out a significant tradition from the yearly Islamic pilgrimage, avoiding the warmth and uneven surfaces. As enormous fans sprayed great mists of water over them while they spent hours of worship, they raised their arms in prayer, their smartphones raised, and the hearts of the people who were inside. Till twilight, travelers are required to stay in Arafat. Over 40 degrees Fahrenheit were attained. A local ice cream booth provided some relief from the worship while away from the area. Because he couldn’t manage the journey, Salem Naji Ahmed from Yemen flew four times overland to the nearby Saudi Arabia. These cherished emotions are Arafat’s most beautiful and best qualities, he told The Associated Press. ” We spent four days and nights in Oman. Although it was very tiring, we managed to satisfy Allah and fulfill one of his responsibilities in the best place on earth and at the holy sites. The steep hill is extremely significant in Islam. Arafat is mentioned in the Quran, and it is said that the Prophet Muhammad is credited with giving his last lecture on his last Haj. The Day of Arafat is the most divine day of the year, when God visits the honest and pardons them for their sins, according to traditional prophetic phrases. Egypt’s Habetem Salem said:” We don’t express the experience. We have a sincere heart and faith and think the best at the holy places. Every Muslim may perform rituals and acts of worship under the purview of one of the Five Pillars of Islam if they have the funds and the physical means to do it. The overall number of pilgrims attending this week’s Haj has not been made public by the government. They claimed earlier that there were more than 1.5 million immigrants participating. There were 1, 611, 310 travellers from abroad next month.
