🕋 Hajj Pilgrimage Countdown Clock 🕌

The Significance of the Hajj Pilgrimage

**Hajj** is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, a religious duty that must be carried out by every adult Muslim who is physically and financially able to undertake the journey to the Kaaba in Mecca at least once in their lifetime. The pilgrimage takes place over five days, starting on the 8th of Dhu al-Hijjah (the last month of the Islamic calendar).

Accurate Lunar Tracking:

Because Hajj is fixed on the Islamic lunar calendar, its date shifts on the Gregorian calendar by about 10-12 days annually. This tool uses the best available astronomical projections for the start date of the Hajj (8th Dhu al-Hijjah) to provide a precise, continuous countdown in days, hours, minutes, and seconds, helping pilgrims worldwide prepare for their journey.
