Departure to Mina
On the first day of Hajj, Muslims set their way to the tent city that is called the day of Tarwiah. This is almost 8 kilometers away from Mecca and pilgrims stay in Mina until the dawn, but they spent most of their time in worship. Then they depart for Arafat and pilgrims again trip to Mina on the 3rd day of Hajj and perform the emblematic stoning to the Shatan that is the 6th rite of Hajj.
Head to Arafat
After camping in the Mina, pilgrims stay in the mount of Arafat.

They spent their most of the day in prayers and remembering of the Allah. 
Tawaf

Muslims prefer to complete 7 circles around the Kaaba form starting, during and the end of the Hajj. The routes are done in a counter-clock way that is the high state of the unity between Muslims in worshiping One Allah. The pilgrims revolve by the al-Hajar al-Aswad or the black stone at the corner of the Kaaba.  
The mount of Safa or Marwa (Sa’ey) 
Walking backward and forward between the two holy mounts Safa and Marwa and cross the distance between the hills is called Sa’ey. It denotes as in Arabic to walk or move rapidly. The pilgrims remember the journey of the Prophet Ibrahim’s Wife, who was crazily searching the water for her son, after when Ibrahim (AS) left them at Allah’s command. 
Muzdalifah and Ramy al-Jamrat
