Muslim pilgrims cast stones at pillars symbolising Satan in Mena
Muslim pilgrims cast stones at pillars symbolising Satan in Mena November 18, 2010. Millions flock to Mecca in Saudi Arabia for the annual haj pilgrimage, a duty for every able-bodied Muslim who can afford it. Muslims around the world celebrate Eid al-Adha to mark the end of the haj by slaughtering sheep, goats, cows and camels to commemorate Prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail on God's command.
