The greatest gathering on Earth: Three million Muslims attend annual hajj pilgrimage as Eid holiday gets under way
This article talks about the pilgrimage to the Mecca. Every year a lot of Muslims go to Mecca on the same day, and this causes a lot of huge crowds of people. If I was Muslim, I would be afraid because I don’t like be in a small place, with a lot of people. The numbers of people are so high that it is dangerous. People have died, they are crushed under foot. The celebrations are very important for Muslims and their religion, but I think there should be some control for the numbers of people.
The Saudi government have built a concrete construction to control the crowds and in the last festival this was a success and no one was killed.
