Sharjah 24 – SPA: After sunset today, Tuesday, pilgrims bid farewell to the holy site of Arafat and continued their faithful journey to the holy site of "Muzdalifah". The sight of millions of pilgrims, draped in the white Ihram cloth, walking along the streets leading to Muzdalifah marks the spiritual essence of this sacred ritual.

The pedestrian roads in the holy sites stretch 25 km, from Mount Arafat, known as the "Mount of Mercy", through Muzdalifah, and to Mina. This route is renowned as the longest pedestrian road in the world, and it is traversed by millions of pilgrims each year during the Hajj season.

To alleviate the impact of the high temperatures on the pilgrims, sprinters are stationed along the sidewalks of the streets, spraying water mist to cool the atmosphere. This thoughtful measure aims to provide relief and ensure the well-being of the pilgrims.
