Pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina head to the plain of Arafat this evening

Pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina will set off on Saturday evening towards the plain of Arafat, where they will spend the entire following day. According to Islamic scholars, tomorrow is the most chosen day of the year, and 1,405 pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina will spend Sunday with about 2 million pilgrims from other parts of the world, Patria reports.

- Today is all about preparations for going to Arafat. Today is the Day of Tarwiyah, and a number of this year's pilgrims from around the world have already put on their ihram and gone to Mina. The remaining pilgrims, including most pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina, will go to Arafat this evening after dark, that is, after Isha prayer, God willing. Tomorrow is the Day of Arafat, which is one of the pillars of Hajj. Tomorrow, a large number of us will be standing and staying at Arafat, reciting prayers, reciting the Qur'an, hoping to be completely cleansed of sins - said Nezim ef. Halilović, head of the Hajj Office of the Islamic Community in Bosnia and Herzegovina, for the Muslim Information News Agency.

The health condition of pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina is good, and they are all ready for the start of Hajj rituals and the departure to Arafat. The journey when descending from Arafat is physically demanding, so pilgrims from Bosnia and Herzegovina who are in weaker physical condition will be assisted by Bosnian students studying in Saudi Arabia, Patria reports.
