Each year, millions of Muslims gather in Mina to perform Hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam. During the Days of Tashreeq, pilgrims continue the important ritual of stoning the devil, a symbolic act that follows the way of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

This ritual involves throwing pebbles at three stone pillars, starting from the smallest to the largest, known as Jamarat Al-Aqaba. It reminds Muslims to reject evil and stay firm in faith.

Despite the extreme heat reaching 46°C, pilgrims continue with devotion. Authorities have forecast even hotter days ahead but promise some relief at night.

The Interior Ministry is working hard to keep pilgrims safe. They guide movement from tents to Jamarat and ensure peace around the Grand Mosque.

The Ministry of Hajj urges pilgrims to follow all safety instructions and schedules to prevent heat-related issues.

Pilgrims describe their experience as peaceful, organized, and spiritually uplifting.
