What To Expect
Mina, located seven kilometers east of Masjid al-Haram, is where Hajj pilgrims spend the night on the 8th, 11th, and 12th (and some even on the 13th) of Dhul Hijjah. It is home to the Jamaraat (the three pillars), where pilgrims perform the symbolic stoning ritual as part of the Hajj rites.
Muzdalifah is an open area between Mina and Arafat, where pilgrims spend the night on the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah. Here, they collect pebbles and perform the combined Maghrib and Isha prayers. Staying in Muzdalifah is a time for repentance, prayer, and seeking forgiveness from Allah. This location is an important part of the Hajj rituals, including standing at Arafat, which is one of the holiest days in Islam.
