We are led on the journey of a lifetime to the city of Mecca - the pilgrimage known to Muslims as the Hajj. The pilgrims walk with heads bare and feet in sandals; they call to Allah; they kiss or point to the Black Stone as the Prophet did. Arriving at Mecca they surge round the Ka'aba shave their heads and travel to Mount Arafat.
