Huge crowds of Muslim pilgrims circle Kaaba as Hajj nears

Description

White-robed Muslim pilgrims pray and perform the "tawaf", the circumambulation of the Kaaba, at Mecca's Grand Mosque, ahead of Hajj. The hajj, which begins on June 14, is one of the five pillars of Islam and must be undertaken at least once by all Muslims who have the means to do so. IMAGES
