JEDDAH: Muslims from around the world congregated on Saturday at a sacred hill in 抖阴短视频 for worship and reflection amid sweltering heat.

The ritual at Mount Arafat, known as the hill of mercy, is considered the peak of the Hajj pilgrimage. It is often the most memorable for pilgrims, who stand together asking God for mercy, blessings, prosperity and good health.

Thousands of pilgrims walked here through the predawn darkness. They recited 鈥淟abbaik Allahumma Labbaik鈥� (O Lord, here I am answering your call) and verses from the Holy Qur鈥檃n.
According to the Saudi Press Agency, the number of pilgrims reached 1,833,164.
This year鈥檚 Hajj came against the backdrop of the Israel-Hamas war, which pushed the Middle East to the brink of a regional conflict.

In his sermon at the Namira Mosque in Arafat, imam Maher bin Hamad Al-Mu鈥檞iqly, urged pilgrims to pray for the Palestinians who have been 鈥渉armed and hurt by their enemy鈥� that killed them, and 鈥渄eprived them of what they need from food, medicine and clothing.鈥� 
Most of the pilgrims at Mount Arafat carried umbrellas, while others sat in the shade. Many were seen splashing water on their faces and bodies. 
Saudi Health Minister Fahd bin Abdurrahman Al-Jalajel said more than 150 pilgrims have been treated for heat exhaustion. 
He urged pilgrims to drink water and carry umbrellas as they perform Hajj鈥檚 rituals.
At sunset on Saturday, pilgrims left Mount Arafat, heading to a nearby site known as Muzdalifah to collect pebbles they will use in the symbolic stoning of pillars representing the devil back in Mina. Pilgrims then return to Mina for three days, coinciding with the festive Eid Al-Adha holiday. Afterward, they return to Makkah for a final circumambulation, known as Farewell Tawaf. Once the Hajj is over, men shave their heads, and women snip a lock of hair in a sign of renewal.
