Labbayek Allah

Hajj pilgrims pray near Mount Arafat, southeast of the Saudi holy city of Makkah, yesterday. Pilgrims flooded the Arafat plain from Makkah and Mina before dawn for a key ritual around the site where prophet Hazrat Mohammad (SM) gave his farewell sermon on this day in the Islamic calendar 1,378 years ago. Pilgrims spend the day at Arafat in reflection and reading the Quran. Photo: AFP
