Pilgrims United in Holy Sites, with Their Diverse Customs, Traditions, and Languages

Mina, June 8, 2025, SPA -- Pilgrims have flocked to the Grand Mosque from all corners of the world. In a scene unlike any other, they brought with them a rich tapestry of languages, dialects, customs, and traditions—shaped by centuries and distinct homelands—yet seamlessly blending within the Holy Sites.
Unified in emotion and appearance, they reflect the spirit of equality and freedom from all forms of discrimination. Scenes of devotion and humility formed a powerful image of unity. Cultural diversity receded, and social and linguistic differences faded as pilgrims arrived in Makkah, all wearing the simple garments of Ihram.
Pilgrims from distant continents were seen proceeding with reverence and devotion to perform their rituals, forming a compelling human tableau. This scene affirms that Hajj is not merely an act of worship, but a profound global experience—one that embodies the meanings of brotherhood and Islamic unity.
