It is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, the core beliefs and acts of worship that Muslims must practice.It can feel tough to fulfill this obligation when you’re away from home comforts. Not following your normal routine, sleep deprivation, vast cultural and linguistic differences, and being surrounded by upward of 1.5 million strangers add to the challenges. You can’t even wear your regular clothes.These factors can rattle your calm, kindness and patience.

Prioritizing your health, and resting whenever needed, can alleviate some of the stress. Focusing on what you are doing, rather than comparing yourself to others, can also relieve the pressure.Being grateful for the opportunity to be at the Hajj will help remind you why you are there. Talking to friends and family back home will ground you.
