The pilgrimage which each and every capable Muslims is supposed to make at least once in their lifetime, is called the Hajj.

The literary meaning of the term Hajj is 'to determine', or to make 'an intention'. Muslims from around the world gather in Mecca during the 10th lunar month of Islamic calender, and perform rituals which include circling of Kaaba, throwing stone to the 'devil', running between mountains, and many more. The pilgrimage merely lasts for a week, with performing the sacrifice of animals at the end, to commemorate Abraham's tradition.
