The Hajj pilgrimage is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is obligatory for all able-bodied Muslims to perform at least once in their lifetime. It takes place in the month of Dhul Hijjah and involves a series of rituals performed in and around the holy city of Mecca, following in the footsteps of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him).
Muharram holds a special significance in the Islamic calendar as one of the four sacred months decreed by Allah (SWT). Referred to as "the month of Allah," it is deeply revered and considered among the most blessed times for Muslims. Throughout history, Muharram has witnessed significant events, marking it as a period of profound spiritual importance.
