Hajj in Quran: The Annual Muslim Pilgrimage and Rituals Performed in Mecca

Hajj is one of the obligatory acts of worship of Muslims. In fact, it is a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca where the Kaaba (کَعبَة) is located where Muslims perform a series of rituals while wearing special clothing called the clothing of iḥrām (احرام).

Hajj is the epitome of servitude to the Lord of the worlds and a reminder of one’s death where one will be enshrouded with a white cloth just like in hajj. However, this sacred ritual must be performed provided one has the financial conditions for it, otherwise it is not obligatory.

Furthermore, this act of worship has been mentioned in the Quran and a whole surah has been dedicated to it by the name of hajj.
