EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in history as a group of Arab pilgrims from Mecca make their way through the bustling markets of Istanbul during their journey to perform the Hajj, the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca. Dating back to 1903, this image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich cultural traditions and practices of the Muslim world. The man on the left of the photograph holds a tesbih, a string of beads used to count off the recitation of the 99 Names of God during prayer. The intricately patterned carpets, slippers, and rugs spread out before them are a testament to the importance of hospitality and comfort during the long and arduous journey. The pilgrims, dressed in traditional Arab garb and wearing turbans, navigate the crowded streets of Istanbul, then part of the Ottoman Empire, en route to Constantinople, the gateway to Europe and the final stop before reaching Mecca. The Hoja, or religious leader, in the background, guides and supports the pilgrims on their spiritual journey. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of faith and the connections that bind the global Muslim community together, transcending borders and time. It is a visual testament to the historical significance of the Hajj pilgrimage and the deep-rooted traditions and practices that continue to shape the Islamic faith today.
