EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of the historic pilgrimage to Mecca, as two devoted individuals prepare for their journey as male and female pilgrims in the approved Islamic attire. Dating back to 1853, this photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library offers a unique glimpse into the rich history and traditions of the Islamic faith. The male pilgrim, dressed in the traditional ihram garb, dons a simple two-piece outfit consisting of a white seamless shirt and a white, unstitched cloak. His head is uncovered, and he carries a small bag slung over his shoulder. The female pilgrim, on the other hand, is dressed in a long, loose-fitting robe called an abaya, which is worn with a simple headscarf known as a hijab. Both pilgrims carry the essential items for their journey, including a water bottle and a miswak, a natural toothbrush made from the aromatic twig of a tree. The pilgrimage to Mecca, known as the Hajj, is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is a mandatory religious duty for all able-bodied Muslims who are financially capable of making the journey. The pilgrimage involves several rituals, including circling the Kaaba, the holiest site in Islam, seven times, and standing in the plain of Arafat on the day of Eid al-Adha. This powerful photograph serves as a reminder of the spiritual significance and the enduring tradition of the Hajj pilgrimage, which continues to unite millions of Muslims from around the world every year. This photograph, taken over 160 years ago, offers a fascinating window into the past and the rich history of the Islamic faith. It is a poignant reminder of the shared experiences and the deep connections that bind the global Muslim community together, transcending time and space.
