The Hajj pilgrims headed to Mina on Tuesday, the first day of Eid al-Adha, after spending the night in Muzdalifah following their ascension of Mount Arafat.
At Mina, they will perform the symbolic stoning of the Devil.
After completing the ritual, they will return to Makkah to perform the Tawwaf al-Ifada and later the “Sa’ay”, or running or walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwah, located near the holy Kaaba.
The pilgrims will spend three days at Mina, known as the days of Tashreeq, for the stoning of the Devil.
