On Tuesday morning, the pilgrims start moving from Mina towards Upper Arafat on the day of the Great Stand, where they perform the noon and afternoon prayers, short and combined, and then set out on their way to Muzdalifah to spend the night there, before moving to Mina to complete the rituals of Hajj.
Arafat hair
- Al-Mash’ar covers an area of approximately 33 square kilometers.
- More than two million pilgrims gather in it.
- The flat land of Al-Mash’ar is surrounded by a series of mountains: Jabal Al-Rahma in the north, and to the east of Arafat lies a mountain called by many names, such as Jabal Illal, Jabal Al-Tawbah, Jabal Al-Dua, Al-Nabit, and Jabal Al-Qurain.
- Standing on Arafat represents the example of the Messenger of God, Muhammad, who stood on it and delivered the “Farewell Sermon” from it.
