Pilgrims begin first day of Tashreeq in Hajj rituals
Makkah – Saba: Pilgrims began the first of the three days of Tashreeq in Hajj rituals on Saturday, during which they will throw stones at al-Jamarat (stones) at al-Jamarat site in Mina, western Saudi Arabia, and then conclude their Hajj with the Farewell Tawaf. The first group of pilgrims arrived at al-Jamarat facility in Mina on the first day of Tashreeq and performed the stoning of al-Jamarat, according to Anadolu Agency. In Mina, pilgrims throw 21 pebbles at al-Jamarat, starting with the smallest, then the middle, and finally the largest, with seven pebbles for each al-Jamarat. They pronounce Allahu Akbar with each one and make whatever supplications they wish after the smallest and middle, facing al-Qiblah with their hands raised. The Days of Tashreeq are the three days following the first day of Eid al-Adha. Pilgrims spend these days in Mina, also known as the "numbered days." According to Hajj rituals, the stoning of al-Jamarat is a reminder of the enmity of Satan, who confronted the Prophet Ebrahim, peace be upon him, in these places. This is how they recognize his enmity and are warned against him. Whatsapp Telegram Email
