marimar_72 Says: The three days after Eid is called Ayam Al Tashreeg.A pilgrim has an option of staying at mina in all three days,or just at the first two.We chose to go back to Jiddah a day earlier and then return again to Makka after few days , to preform Tawaf Al Wada`a (Farewell...
marimar_72 Says: Usually the Hajj orgniser compnay provide all 3 meals,plus an all day beverages(jucies,water,coffee and tea).I didn`t eat anything(expet of apples and some busicuts)to prevent myself from going to the toilet.(not that it wasn`t clean,but I didn`t feel comfortable in public...

marimar_72 Says: I`m sad to say this,but many pilgrims litter everywhere,and the government can`t do much about it,though it provides large garbage cans,but they can`t collect it,simply because many people are sleeping on the streets,preventing car traffic.By the 3rd day of hajj piles of...

marimar_72 Says: Collect all the pebbles you need from Mozdalifah,you will NOT find any at Mina,as everywhere is paved now.you will need 7 for the first Agaba al kobra.then 7 for each Jamarah soghra,wostah and kobra 7*3=21(for each day)so 21*3 nights=63 pebble not to forget the 7...

Muarrij Says: Mina is only really visited during the Hajj season for a few days by about 2 million people all at the same time. You would think that such a small area would get quite congested during this time, but no, you still feel at peace. Why?There is nothing really to stress you out...
