No, Muslims are not obliged to go for pilgrimage (or Hajj) if they can't afford it physically, financially, and/or safely.
Never. Even when they visit AlAqsa Mosque it is not in Israel. It is in the occupied Palestinian territory and not in Israel.. Muslims pilgrimage or hajj is only to Makkah (or Mecca) is Saudi Arabia and other places in Saudi Arabia.
Answer:If there is such a place, then it has no place in Islam. It would be unlawful to replace the pilgrimage to Mecca with a pilgrimage to anywhere else - even Jerusalem.
Muslims believe hole humans never die even after their worldly death. and they always hear and reply and can help and solve problems. so they go to meet them (their soul) and ask them help. also this is highly rewarded by God in Islam.
Islam has 5 pillars and one of them is the Pilgrimage (Hajj) to Mekkah. Mekkah is the most important city of the Muslims. Here, they have to perform a set of rituals in order for them to complete the Pilgrimage. The reward for those who perform this act of adoration is very big. There are categories of Muslims that are not obligated to perform the Pilgrimage: the sick, the poor (Pilgrimage involves a rather important sum of money for those who live at great disntace), the insane, the children, those imprisoned. Nowadays the Muslims that receive visa for entering Saudi Arabia is limited, so for those who die without performing the Pilgrimage due to lack of possibility, it is not considered a sin.
The Ka'aba is the first house for the worship of the One God built on Earth. So says the Qur'an. It was built, by Abraham and his son Ishmael, even before the Temple in Jerusalem. It was dedicated, by Abraham, as a place for pilgrimage. That is the significance of the Ka'aba to Muslims.
They must obey their husband's authority at all times. Usually this results in physical, psychological, and even sexual abuse.
There are no specific clothes for Muslims that they have to wear. Not even Muslim scholars or more religious people have to wear something special. However, when Muslims are performing Pilgrimage, which is one of Islam's 5 pillars, Muslim men have to wear what's called Ihram. Basically, it consists of two white pieces of cloth that wraps around the body. One piece for the upper half of the body and the other piece is for the lower half. The two pieces must not be designed or specifically made for the person because this wear signifies that all people performing the pilgrimage are all the same whether they are rich or poor, VIP's or ordinary people. I hope this answers your question :)
People who go on a pilgrimage are called pilgrims; such journeys are religiously motivated, although the term can also be used metaphorically to describe a trip that someone makes to do something that they consider to be extremely important, even if it is not actually religious in nature. All devout Muslims, for example, are religiously obligated to visit the holy city of Mecca, at least once in their lives, so that is a very frequent form of pilgrimage. A Roman Catholic might wish to visit the Vatican as a religious pilgrimage. It is an act of piety for a Hindu to bathe in the waters of the river Ganges. And so forth.
The Kaaba, located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, is a sacred site in Islam and is visited by millions of Muslims during the Hajj pilgrimage. Generally, only Muslims are allowed to enter the Kaaba, and even then, access is typically restricted to special occasions, such as during Hajj or specific religious ceremonies. Non-Muslims are prohibited from entering the area surrounding the Kaaba. The interior of the Kaaba is typically reserved for the custodians and select dignitaries during special events.
It's Believed that the Muslims will recognize Allah , even if they don't know his looks.
It depends on the type of pilgrimage, the reason, and if religious then which religion. Pilgrimages can occur for all sorts of reasons; sometimes to worship Gods, other times to fulfill duties and soem even class going to a loved one's grave or scattering ashes as a pilgrimage (though I don't know if this is correct). With regard to religious pilgrimages it usually involves prayer, adoration and some sort of set act. For example, in Islam Muslims circumamulate (walk in circles) round the Kaba (sorry for incorrect names/spellings) in Mecca; their place of holy pilgrimage. In Christianity, Lourdes is an example of a pilgrimage often taken by the frail or sick in which they touch the walls of the grotto and light candles by the place where Mary first appeared in a way of asking to be healed.It depends on the type of pilgrimage, the reason, and if religious then which religion.

If Muslims don't even react to this quesrion, why sjould NON- Muslims ?
