Hajj is a worship because it is the fifth pillar of Islam. Performing Hajj once in lifetime is obligatory on each Muslim man and woman if he/she can afford. Hajj is celebrated during the month of Zil Hajja. It is a tradition established by Hazrat Abraham AS (Ibraheem in Arabic) as per command of Almighty Allah Karim (God). He built Ka'abah and announced to the people (all humans -born or yet to born). Miraculously, his voice echoed through the universe- even the heavens above. All the Souls, yet to born, who answered to the call saying: Labbaik Allah Humma Labbaik… Here I come, O my Allah, Here I present myself to you… are destined to perform Hajj. It is obligatory on each Muslim once in lifetime.

Hajj is performed during the last month of the Islamic calendar. The schedule is as under or this is how Hajj is performed in different stages: All these rituals teach unconditional obedience to Allah Almighty. They teach equality, simplicity, sacrifice, tolerance and charity etc. It was renewed by the last Prophet of Islam Hazrat Muhammad (SAW). Only the Muslim Ummah performs Hajj which is obligatory on each Muslim
