After sunset, they will head to Muzdalifah, where they will stay until midnight, engaged in prayers after performing combined Maghreb and Isha prayers.

In Muzdalifa, pilgrims rest and traditionally pick up pebbles that will be used for a symbolic stoning of the devil and casting away of evil. However, for this year, they will be provided with the pebbles that have been prepackaged and sterilised.

The final ritual takes place over three to four days in Mina, about 12 miles east of Makkah.

The final days of Haj coincide with Eidul Azha, or the festival of sacrifice, celebrated by Muslims worldwide.
