Hajj is a larger Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca that takes place and all Muslims are obliged to make at least once in their lives if they can afford it. It is regarded as one of Islam's Five Pillars. The Hajj is a journey that includes rites and rituals. The Hajj starts at the Miqat, or Hajj entry station, which is located just outside of Mecca. You bathe, put on Ihram (special white clothing), make the intention for Umra, and begin reciting the Talbiya Du'a there.
