Millions of pilgrims, who have come from different parts of the world for this year’s Haj (pilgrimage), attended Friday prayers at the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah.

The Makkah imam reminded the faithful of the annual pilgrimage’s role in strengthening Muslim unity.

“We can see here people praying to God in different languages, who have come from different corners of the world. They try to know each other and understand the meaning of unity and solidarity,” Sheikh Saud Al-Shuraim said at his Friday sermon. He urged the Muslim faithful to stand united under the banner of Islam, following the teachings of the Qur’an and the Sunnah.   »»» ‘Haj boosts Muslim unity’
