Over dit e-boek

The story of Hajj, the pilgrimage to Makkah, begins
over 4000 years ago when, following the Divine command, the Prophet
Ibrahim travelled for a long distance till he reached the hot, barren
lands of Arabia. There he left his wife, Hagar, and his little baby,
Ismail. The story goes on to tell how Hagar struggled to find water for
her baby and how at last the miraculous Zamzam spring came gushing out
and saved their lives. This is followed by the great sacrifice of
Ibrahim, the building of the Kabah and the call to Hajj. This book
explains the importance of the annual pilgrimage—one of the pillars of
Islam—with a special focus on the Prophet Muhammad’s Hajj. These
exciting historical events are presented in a simple, informative style,
with beautiful illustrations, so that young people may understand and
enjoy them.
