Muslims from all over the world pray on Mount Arafat in Haj climax
More than 1.5 million Muslims braved extreme heat to reach Mount Arafat on Saturday for the high point of the annual Haj pilgrimage, praying for hours, especially for Palestinians in conflict-ridden Gaza.
Clad in white, worshippers began arriving at dawn for the most gruelling day of the annual rites, ascending the rocky, 70-metre hill where Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) gave his last sermon.
“This is the most important day,” said 46-year-old Egyptian Mohammed Asser, who came prepared with a list of prayers.
