Hilary: 作为一名非穆斯林,我一直对哈吉朝圣的规模印象深刻。它不仅是一次精神之旅,也是一项组织上的奇迹。我将分享我对哈吉朝圣的看法,并谈谈组织如此大型年度活动的卓越之处。这次朝圣是穆斯林信仰的一个非常重要的精神活动,也是伊斯兰教的五大支柱之一,对于有能力的穆斯林来说,一生中至少要进行一次。每年大约有200万穆斯林参观麦加的圣地天房,进行为期五天的朝圣。在此期间,严格禁止从事任何罪恶的活动,穆斯林必须保持平静。朝觐不仅仅是一次精神之旅,更是一项卓越的组织壮举,需要细致的规划和各方面的协调,以确保朝圣在平静、安全和精神统一的氛围中进行。沙特阿拉伯为此投入了大量的资源和人力,确保朝圣活动的顺利进行。
