Once the Muslim pilgrims get there, they will collect pebbles to throw at walls of the Jamarat Bridge to symbolize the rejection of the devil's temptations.
Aisha Mennan, 63, came from Morocco with her family to take part in the hajj pilgrimage.
"Now I can die in peace," she told Reuters. "My two sons and three daughters have been saving for years to send me here and when the money was ready I had to wait another three years before I got picked by a ballot. I'm very lucky to be here."
According to Reuters, the bridge has been the scene of a number of deadly stampedes, including the incident in 2006 when 362 were crushed to death.-------------------------------------------------
Yes ladies and gentlemen .. the world is a very scary place! Can you imagine people doing this?? Can you imagine people believing this shit?? I'm having a very hard time thinking I'm living in the 20th century!! You know .. the 20th century that tells us why we have diseases, and germs, and why it rains, and thunders, and lightnings. Why we have floods, and droughts. And guess what people? IT AIN'T BECAUSE GOD IS MAD AT US!!
So throwing rocks at concrete gets rid of some magical devil that haunts you! Really people? REALLY!!!??!!
Holy shit people!! I can't believe in today's age, I can read current headline news and feel like I'm living in the Bronze Age! The current year is almost 2010 .. but to many people out there, it might as well be 1010. Praise Allah .. Amen.
