The Hajj means ‘pilgrimage’ to the holy city of Makkah in Arabic and must be performed yearly by every Muslim who is physically and financially sound, during the first ten days of the holy month of Dhu al-Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar.

Due to the outbreak of coronavirus, the Saudi government has only allowed its 10,000 residents to perform Hajj this year.
