Iran Press/ Middle East: The pilgrims will turn into Hajis as they perform the Hajj rituals, the last stage of which is sacrificing (a sheep, cow, goat, or camel).
This year, more than 2 million pilgrims participated in the great congress of Hajj.
The Hajj rituals are a show of solidarity, brotherhood, and unity of the Islamic Ummah so that they can recognize the Islamic world's challenges with sufficient knowledge to try and solve them.
In this regard, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khamenei, noted: "Hajj is a global and civilizational issue whose goal is to elevate the Islamic Ummah, bring the hearts of Muslims closer to each other and unite the Islamic Ummah against disbelief, oppression, arrogance and human and non-human idols."
