Certain acts in Islam, considered mandatory, form the foundation of Muslim life. These tenets are known as the five pillars of Islam. One of these tenets is Haj or, the pilgrimage. In the month of Zil Hijjah each year (which is the twelfth and last month of Islamic calendar) millions of pilgrims gather at the city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia to perform the pilgrimage.
As the Islamic calendar is lunar and not tied to the seasons, the Haj can fall during different months. However the Arabian summer is unrelenting for most part of the year.
