Hundreds of thousands of Muslims have gathered at Mount Arafat in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday for one of the holiest days in the Islamic calendar.
At least 1.38 million – with some estimated placing the numbers at two million – are expected to traverse the plains of Arafat to the Mount, the location of one of the Prophet Mohamed’s final and most important sermons in 632AD to approximately 114,000 pilgrims.
Here are a selection of images of pilgrims supplicating to Allah on the plain of Arafat. Inshallah all their duas are accepted!
