每年朝覲活動的第三天，穆斯林慶祝宰牲節，這是伊斯蘭世界最神聖的節慶。
In the Islamic calendar, Hajj begins on the eighth day of the Dhu al-Hijjah lunar month, and ends on the 13th day of Dhu al-Hijjah. The religious rituals of the Hajj pilgrimage, however, can be completed in five days.
在伊斯蘭曆法中，朝覲是從都爾黑哲月（朝聖月，即12月）的第八天開始，至第十三天止。不過，朝覲的宗教儀式可在5天內完成。
For Muslims, the Hajj re-enacts the actions of the Prophet Muhammad in his "farewell pilgrimage" in AD 632, and is a central pillar of the Islamic faith meant to cleanse the faithful of sin and bring them closer to God.
對穆斯林來說，朝覲是先知穆罕默德在西元632年「最後朝聖」行動的重現，是伊斯蘭信仰核心，象徵罪惡的洗淨以及進一步靠向真主。
