Hajj

Hajj is the most popular holiday in my country. It is an Islamic holiday, and it is in the last month of the year. People come from far away to Medina and Mecca to visit these holy cities.
Some people do not go to the holy cities because they do not have money or they are not well. The Quran says that these people can go to Mecca or Medina another year. At least one time during their lives, they must go to Mecca.
People who do not travel to holy cities fast on the feast of hajj. On the second day, Muslims gather together with friends. They cook meat and the children wear new clothes.
