لقطات من حج 1431

AT MENA
Muslim pilgrims pray near Mount Arafat, southeast of the Saudi holy city of Mecca, on November 15, 2010. Pilgrims flooded into the Arafat plain from Mecca and Mina before dawn for a key ritual around the site where prophet Mohammed gave his farewell sermon on this day in the Islamic calendar 1,378 years ago. Pilgrims spend the day at Arafat in reflection and reading the Koran or Mulsim holy book.
A Mecca Metro train arrives at a station during a testing period in Mina ahead of the Hajj main ritual at Mount Arafat outside Mecca, Saudi Arabia, Sunday, Nov. 14, 2010. Muslims beginning the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia have a new way to avoid the crowds: an elevated light-rail that will whisk them between holy sites. The first phase of the train project, called the Mecca Metro, will transport pilgrims between Mina, Arafat and Muzdalifa. The three stops on the pilgrims' journey trace the steps of the Prophet Muhammad and Abraham. Officials hope the 11-mile (18-kilometer) train will alleviate crowding.
