No annual event on the face of the globe, religious or non-religious, compares to hajj in terms of the sheer number of participants, duration of the event and the breadth of agenda.

Nearly three million pilgrims from around the world will gather in the plain of Arafat on Thursday, November 26, marking the climax of the annual Hajj.

Muslims worldwide will commemorate the Hajj on Friday, November 27, 2009 where they will celebrate Eid Al-Adha, (Festival of Sacrifice) to honor the sacrifice of Prophet Abraham.

To remember and learn from the struggle of Prophet Ibrahim is a lesson for humanity for all times.

BABANDI A. GUMEL FROM U.K said:
Alhamdu Lillahi since Friday has been confirmed and declared as the Eid Day, those of us who would not be performing the Hajj this year should take the opportunity to fast on Thursday gaining double reward.One for following the Sunnah of the Prophet fasting on Mondays and Thursdays and the other of the extra ordinary reward of two years for fasting on the Arafah Day which is Kaffara for Sanatain or to years ibadah thus gaining the atonement of two years sins. We should not forget these are the best for doingAmalal Saliha which our Creator Allah (S.W.T) loves more than any other days of the year.May He give us the Taufiq to do Amaal.
