The Hajj
Among the duties God imposes on each and every Muslim able of performing so is a pilgrimage to the holy places in and close to Mecca in Arabia. Not Islam is your Birthright [the only way for Salvation]” href=”http://www.themuslimcorner.com/sunnah/islam-is-your-birthright-the-only-way-for-salvation/”>only is it a religious ritual filled with blessings for the hundreds of thousands who make the journey yearly, but it is also a social, political, and industrial knowledge that for centuries has set in motion a flood of travelers across the world‘s continents. What ever its final result–spiritual enrichment, cultural exchange, monetary gain or wreck–the street to Mecca has prolonged been an exhilarating human journey. By collecting the firsthand accounts of these travelers and shaping their experiences into a richly thorough narrative, F. E. Peters here supplies an unparalleled literary background of the central ritual of Islam from its remote pre-Islamic origins to the finish of the Hashimite Kingdom of the Hijaz in 1926.
