Little_star said:2.5 million pilgrims perform Haj today
By Syed Rashid Husain
MINA (Saudi Arabia), Jan 8: Around 2.5 million pilgrims from 160 different countries across the globe reached the valley of Mina by Sunday afternoon, as Haj 1426 Hijrah began. Men clad in two seamless pieces of white cloth and women in modest dresses, covering their heads, were reciting ‘Labbaik Allah Humma Labbaik’, with tears flowing across the cheeks of many.
A large number of dignitaries from the Muslim world, including the Jordanian King Abdullah II, Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade, Bangladesh Opposition Leader Sheikh Hasina Wajed, Gambian President Dr Alhaji Yahya Abdulaziz Jamy and Lebanese Prime Minister Fu’ad Siniora are also in Mina to perform Haj this year.
