Hajj

Today we talked about and acted out the Hajj. Actually acting out the Hajj gave me a lot better understanding of what actually goes on when Muslims make a pilgrimage to Mecca.  I learned a lot about the Hajj and what people feel spiritually and emotionally while making the pilgrimage. To Muslims this is a once and a lifetime opportunity and is a life changing experience. While preforming our version of the Hajj I noticed everything was done in 7s, which shows up a lot in religion. I also learned that there is a sense of community and unity while preforming the Hajj, it does not matter where you are from or your ethnicity you are treated as an equal human being.
