Hajj (major pilgrimage) and Umrah (minor pilgrimage) are spiritual journeys undertaken by Muslims and are meant to acknowledge the Almighty Allah and purge oneself of the impurities within. Followers of Islam go for the pilgrimage to Makkah to perform rites and to Madinah due to its association with Prophet Muhammed (P.B.U.H.) two of the holiest cities for Muslims located in the Hejaz region in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
