TEHRAN (IQNA) –  Some 120,000 copies of the Holy Quran will be distributed among Hajj pilgrims in the Plain of Arafat, Mashar al-Haram and Mina near Mecca.

 

According to al-ain.com website, the Saudi minister of Islamic affairs, Dawah and guidance, Abdullatif bin Abdulaziz Al Ash-Shaikh, has ordered the operation.

He said the measure is aimed at helping the pilgrims get the most of the spiritual atmosphere and get more acquainted with the Word of God.

Meanwhile, Salim bin Hajj al-Khameri, the director general of the Islamic affairs, Dawah and guidance department in Mecca, said all the necessary preparations have been made for facilitating the pilgrims’ performance of the rituals in Arafat and Mina.

Mashar al-Haram is the Valley between Muzdalifa and Mina, where pilgrims should make a Du’a after they have slept in Muzdalifah while they are going to Makkah to throw Jamrat al-Aqabah on the morning of the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah.

Hajj is a pilgrimage to Mecca that every able-bodied and financially able Muslim is obliged to undertake at least once during their lifetime.
