Hajj means intention and walking. It is an annual event, obligatory at least once in a lifetime for Muslims who have the means to complete it. It is a trip to the house of Allah (kaaba) in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, on the 8th to the 12th in the month of Zul-hajjah, the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar.
Hajj symbolizes the union of mankind. Muslims from all race and
nationality assemble in equality and humility to worship their lord. The
pilgrim, in the presence of his greater, to whom he belongs, and to
whom he must return after death. We have to do it a least once in a
lifetime.
After a Muslim makes the trip to Mecca, he/she is known as a hajje/hajja (one who made the pilgrimage to Mecca). The most important rituals of the Hajj include walking seven times around the kabba, touching the Black stone, roaming seven times between Mount Safa and Mount Marwar, and representatively stoning the Devil in Mina.
The pilgrim, or the haji, is honored in the Muslim community. Islamic teachers speak that the Hajj should be an expression of devotion to God, not a funds to gain social standing. The believer should be self-aware and look at their intentions in performing the pilgrimage.
This must lead to constant striving for self-improvement. A pilgrimage prepared at any time other than the Hajj season is called an Umrah, and while not compulsory is strongly recommended. Also, they make a pilgrimage to the holy city of Jerusalem in their alms giving spread.
