Mina - Saba:
Pilgrims flocked to Mina at dawn on the tenth day of Dhul-Hijjah, Friday, chanting "Allahu Akbar" (God is Greatest) and glorifying Allah.
Allah blessed them with the opportunity to stand on the plain of Arafat, having performed the greatest pillar of Hajj. They then spent the night in Muzdalifah, surrounded by God's care and protection, experiencing an atmosphere of faith.
After arriving at Mina, the pilgrims began the stoning of Jamarat al-Aqaba, following the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
After stoning Jamarat al-Aqaba on this day, pilgrims are required to slaughter their sacrificial animals, shave their heads, circumambulate the Sacred House, and walk between Safa and Marwa.
In Mina, pilgrims continue to complete their rituals, spending the days of Tashreeq, frequently remembering God and thanking Him for blessing them with Hajj. They complete the stoning of the three Jamarat, starting with the smallest, then the middle, and finally the largest, each with seven pebbles.
The pilgrims' presence was characterized by calm and serenity, protected by the care of Allah Almighty.
