Leaving to Mina Tomorrow

Inshallah after Fajr (early morning prayer) we depart to the tent city of Mina in our Ihram garb (Read my post 'Ihram')

Mina is a temperory city setup close to Arafat Plains where Prophet Adam (PBUH) sought Allah's forgiveness & also the place where Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) gave his last sermon and Jamarat, the site of stoning of the Satan. For full explanation on the significance of Arafat & Jamarat, read my previous posts 'Jabal Rahma - Mountain of Mercy', 'Jamarat - Stoning of Satan' & '9th of Dhul Hijjah - Day of Arafat'.
