Over 1.5 million Muslim pilgrims are currently in Saudi Arabia for the Hajj 2024 pilgrimage, which began on Friday with worshippers performing essential rituals.
On Saturday, the pilgrims will observe the Rukn-e-Azm of Hajj, known as Waqoof-e-Arafa. They spent the previous night in the tent valley and will proceed to Maidan-e-Arafat, where Prophet Muhammad (SAW) delivered his final sermon, known as Khutba e Hujja Tul Vida.

At Masjid-e-Nimrah, the pilgrims will listen to the Hajj Sermon, which this year will be translated into 50 languages. Following their stay in Arafat, the pilgrims will move to Muzdalifa to collect pebbles for the stoning of the devil’s pillars in Mina.
After completing these rituals, the pilgrims will return to observe the festive occasion of Eid al-Adha and perform Qurbani (sacrifice).
