Hey fellow adventurers! Today we’ll be talking about something unique to Saudi Arabia, the Hajj. This year it took place from August 30th to September 4th. I’ve mentioned it in passing before but to be honest, I don’t know much about it myself. For that reason, I’m really excited to be able to learn about it with all of you. 😊
The Hajj is an annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca (the holiest city of Islam) that every adult Muslim must partake in at least once in their lifetime. It is the largest annual gathering of people in the world. This journey is meant to demonstrate the solidarity of the Muslim people as well as their commitment to Allah. Every year, between two to three million people participate in the Hajj. I was going to summarize the 6-day ritual that Muslims follow during the Hajj but I ran across an article that explained it much better than I could:
http://www.aljazeera.com/focus/hajj/2009/11/2009111895127111168.html
Recently, there has been concern for the safety of the pilgrims since the number of pilgrims has been increasing since the 1990’s. They are using crowd control techniques to attempt to ensure the safety of those participating in the Hajj, but you still get events like the stampede in 2015 that resulted in 769 deaths and 934 injuries. Because of this, Iran stated in 2016 that they were no longer letting their citizens go to Saudi Arabia to participate in the Hajj since the safety of their citizens couldn’t be guaranteed.
Well that’s all for today. I know some of you might be opposed to opening links but I seriously suggest at least skimming through the one I provided to see what they do on each day of the Hajj. I thought it was interesting. Anyhow, thank you so much for reading my blog! Until our next adventure!
Hi! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could locate a captcha plugin for my comment form?
I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m
having difficulty finding one? Thanks a lot!
You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but
I in finding this topic to be actually one thing which I believe I
would by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated
and extremely broad for me. I am looking forward for your subsequent post, I
will try to get the hold of it!
I am in fact thankful to the owner of this website who has shared this impressive paragraph at here.
Hi there to all, it’s genuinely a good for me to go to see this website, it consists of precious Information.
Very good post. I certainly appreciate this site. Keep writing!
Nach dem Franco-Putsch im Juli 1936 gelang es den meisten, die Insel zu verlassen. Das
älteste Hotel „Hostal Ca’s Bombu” in Cala Rajada wurde 1885 gegründet und wird seitdem von der Familie Esteva geführt. Vom Bauboom, der sich für des Tourismus in den 1970er Jahren auf der Insel ausbreitete, ist Cala Rajada bis zum bitteren Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts nur eingeschränkt erfasst worden. Dies hat dem Ortskern den Charakter eines historischen Fischerortes mit Hafen erhalten. Rege Bautätigkeit hat jedoch um 2000 außerhalb der Kernregion des Ortes eingesetzt, sofern diese Gebiete minimal Naturschutz stehen. Im südlichen Ortsteil liegt der mit einer Betonmauer geschützte Hafen. Von hier starten Ausflugsschiffe nach Cala Millor und Porto Cristo. Östlich des Hafens sind die historischen Langustenhäuser von Cala Rajada erhalten, in denen die Langusten vorm Verkauf in Meerwasserbecken lebendig gehalten wurden. Auf einem Hügel ebenfalls östlich des Ortes hat sich der Tabakschmuggler, Immobilienhändler und spätere Bankier Juan March 1911 auf den Ruinen des Wachtturms Sa Torre Cega („Der blinde Turm”) die Villa March
erbaut.
Excellent blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything.

that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any ideas?
Many thanks!

Unquestionably consider that that you stated. Your favourite justification seemed to
be at the internet the simplest thing to keep in mind of.

Wer im Urlaub oder im Büro nicht nur Fotos sehen möchte, die der Saugroboter während
seiner Arbeit macht, sondern dieses Gerät auch mit allen seinen Funktionen steuern möchte, für
den ist ein Saugroboter mit einer App-Fernsteuerung genau das richtige.
Im Gegensatz zur klassischen Fernbedienung, über die heutzutage praktisch jeder Saugroboter verfügt,
sind Geräte mit einer App-Fernsteuerung erst umgehen. So sind sie z.B.
Allerdings sind solche Geräte meist erheblich vielseitiger
als ihre klassischen Konkurrenten ohne App-Fernsteuerung.
Lage, den Wohnraum mit einer integrierten Kamera mit
Bewegungssensor zu überwachen, sie können Mails mit Fotos an den Besitzer schicken und gezielt in Wohnräumen nachschauen, ob das Licht

Staubsaugerroboter mit Kamera-Navigation finden sich in abgedunkelten Räumen nimmer zurecht, ihre Navigation versagt
hier völlig. Dagegen funktioniert die Steuerung über virtuelle Wände bzw.
Leuchttürme auch in völlig dunklen Räumen sehr gut, da hier mit unsichtbaren Infrarotstrahlen gearbeitet
wird.

Thanks in support of sharing such a fastidious idea, paragraph is pleasant, thats why i have read it completely
I’ve been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found
any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did,
the internet will be a lot more useful than ever
before.
Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this website.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get
that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appeal.
I must say you’ve done a fantastic job with this.
In addition, the blog loads super fast for me on Firefox.
Exceptional Blog!
My brother recommended I would possibly like this website.
He was totally right. This post actually made my day.
You can not believe just how so much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!
Everything is very open with a really clear explanation of the challenges.

Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long)
so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your
blog. I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still
new to the whole thing. Do you have any recommendations for first-time blog writers?
I’d certainly appreciate it.
Fabulous, what a webpage it is! This blog gives useful data to us, keep it up.
Andererseits will ich keine Putzfrau und finde eine saubere Wohnung trotzdem grandios.
Und die Saugroboter können mir teilweise gründlich das unbeliebtesten Haushaltsaufgaben abnehmen. Zwar fängt man ganz schnell an,
an den Putzergebnissen rumzumeckern und sich selbst als besseren Saubermenschen hinzustellen. Das hätte ich so nicht erwartet.
Der Kampf Mensch gegen Maschine ist dann doch nur einer Frage des Selbstbewusstseins.
Aber nach schon so einige Tagen genießt man einfach nurmehr das großartige
Gefühl, in eine geputzte Wohnung zu kommen, ohne dafür
einen Finger gekrümmt ungebunden. Ich bleibe auch bei meiner Ansicht, dass
Saugroboter eine Detaillösung fürs Problem „selbstbestimmtes Leben im Alter” sein könnten. Und darauf sollten wir uns sowieso einrichten. Wer sich das bislang nicht eingestehen möchte, schaut mal in unseren Akku-Handstaubsauger Test. In unserem großen Staubsauger-Artikel findet ihr einen Überblick zu allen Putzteufel-Geräten. Eh befeuern die Roboputzer auf schönste Weise unsere Faulheit. Und seien wir ehrlich, damit kann ich sehr gut leben.
Does your site have a contact page? I’m having trouble locating
it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail. I’ve got some creative ideas for your blog
you might be interested in hearing. Either way,
great blog and I look forward to seeing it expand over
time.
I think that everything published made a great deal of sense.
However, consider this, what if you added a little content?
I ain’t saying your information is not solid, but what if you added a post title that grabbed people’s attention? I mean The Hajj – Bryanna Vs The World is a
little plain. You might look at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they write article titles to
grab viewers to click. You might add a video
or a pic or two to get readers excited about what you’ve got to say.
Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little livelier.
I am in fact grateful to the holder of this website who has shared
this impressive paragraph at at this time.
Great information. Lucky me I ran across your blog by chance (stumbleupon).
I’ve bookmarked it for later!
Hi! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe
guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My website discusses
a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you might be interested feel free to shoot me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Great blog by the way!
