The days following Arafat Day in Mina are marked by millions of pilgrims making their way to the Jamarat facility to engage in the ritual of stoning the three pillars. This ritual, deeply rooted in Islamic tradition, symbolizes following in the footsteps of the Prophet Muhammad by throwing pebbles at the small, middle, and large pillars. The stoning of the Jamrah al-Aqaba (large pillar) takes place on the morning of Dhul Hijjah 10, followed by animal sacrifice and continued stoning over the next three days known as the days of Tashreeq. The Jamarat facility, a marvel of modern engineering and logistical planning, is designed to efficiently accommodate the vast influx of pilgrims and ensure a smooth and safe flow throughout the ritual.

In recent years, significant improvements have been made to the Jamarat facility to enhance the comfort and safety of pilgrims. Large canopies providing shade and cooling fans with misting systems have been installed to reduce the heat and create a more comfortable environment. The facility is equipped with escalators, service buildings, and newly designed pathways to facilitate easy movement, while surveillance cameras strategically placed allow for monitoring and managing pedestrian flow. Massive television screens throughout the area provide instructional videos and guidance in multiple languages, along with illuminated signage for navigation and orientation.

The meticulous planning and execution of the Jamarat project demonstrate a dedication to enhancing the Hajj experience and ensuring pilgrims can perform their rituals with ease and in a secure environment. The innovations and improvements highlight a commitment to maintaining the sanctity and safety of one of Islam’s most sacred rites. The multi-level structure of the facility and multiple pathways guide pilgrims across different levels, with fixed and movable staircases strategically placed to facilitate movement and prevent congestion. Overall, the Jamarat facility stands as a testament to the continuous efforts to improve the pilgrimage experience for millions of Muslims each year.
