What To Do In The 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah?
Hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam, is the pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca, undertaken by Muslims at least once in their lifetime, if physically and financially able.
It's a profound spiritual journey symbolizing unity, equality, and submission to God. Preparation involves both physical and spiritual readiness: pilgrims purify their intentions, seek forgiveness, and engage in acts of worship such as prayer, fasting, and charitable deeds.
Physically, they undergo rituals like donning the ihram attire, which signifies purity and equality among all pilgrims regardless of status or wealth, and familiarize themselves with the rites of Hajj. Mental preparation includes studying the significance of each ritual and reflecting on its spiritual dimensions, ensuring a profound and transformative experience.
