It is necessary for you to wear an Ihram before you enter Mina, during your Hajj. There they spend the day and the night in enormous tent cities, which they pray in, read the Qur'an, and rest for the next day. Apart from the obvious tradition of staying in Mina overnight on the first day of Hajj, be sure to know that Mina also has two large mosques of which one is very historic.
Mina is an essential component of the Hajj pilgrimage, as it serves as a staging area for pilgrims before they perform the symbolic stoning of the devil at Jamaraat. Located just east of Mecca, Mina provides temporary accommodations for millions of pilgrims, allowing them to congregate and prepare for the rituals. The area is also significant for commemorating Prophet Ibrahim's (Abraham's) willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to God, reinforcing themes of faith and submission central to Hajj. Overall, Mina plays a crucial role in the organization, communal experience, and spiritual significance of the pilgrimage.
