Hajj: Survey of the Pilgrimage - Hajj, the pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia, is the 5th pillar of Islam. It is compulsory for all Muslims to perform it once in their lives. Many save for years and dedicate their lives to do their Hajj. Bringing together more than 2.5 million Muslims each year, it's the largest annual gathering of people in the world; representing almost every race & nationality on Earth. To convey the reality of this journey I assembled the personal accounts of 10 American pilgrims.
