To leave Makkah..the hasty pilgrims start stoning the Jamarat and head for the farewell circumambulation – Al-Hiwar Al-Jazairia

The hasty pilgrims of the Holy House of God began stoning the Jamarat in Mina, with the start of the second day of Tashreeq today, Friday, and heading to the Grand Mosque in Mecca to perform the farewell circumambulation, which is the last ritual of Hajj, so that the hasty pilgrims leave Makkah Al-Mukarramah this morning.

Days of Tashreeq

The days of al-Tashreeq are the three days that come after the first day of Eid al-Adha, known as the Day of Sacrifice, and they are the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth days of the month of Dhul-Hijjah, which the pilgrims spend in Mina, also known as the numbered days.

The first day of al-Tashreeq is known as the Day of the Qur’an, and it is called that because the pilgrim settles and stays there in Mina, stoning the Jamarat starting from the small Jamrah, then the Middle Jamrah, then the Great Jamrah.

The second day of the days of al-Tashreeq is known as the first day of departure, because the pilgrim is allowed to hasten and flee from Mina after stoning Jamrat al-Aqaba al-Wusta, and heading to the Grand Mosque in Mecca to perform the farewell circumambulation, which is the last ritual of Hajj, provided that the exit from Mina is before sunset.

The third day of the days of al-Tashreeq is known as the day of the second departure, in which those who are not in a hurry throw the three Jamarat before leaving Mina.

It is noteworthy that Saudi Arabia welcomed more than 1.8 million Muslims this year, the first without restrictions since the Corona pandemic, and the most numerous in decades.
