Millions of Muslims perform Hajj pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca every year. The Hajj is a mandatory religious duty for Muslims that must be carried out at least once in their lifetime by all adult Muslims who are physically and financially capable of undertaking the journey and supporting their family during their absence. The pilgrimage occurs from 8th to the 12th or 13th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar. The Hajj includes a series of rituals such as wearing a single piece of unstitched white clothing (Ihram), circling the Kaaba seven times, walking between the hills of Safa and Marwah, heading to Mount Arafat, spending a night in Muzdalifa, and the symbolic stoning of the devil.
