Zambian Imam's Hajj dream come true by Radio Islam
Nigerian Imam reflects on Hajj 1447 by Radio Islam
Le grand pèlerinage à La Mecque est l'un des cinq piliers de l'islam, avec la profession de foi, la prière, l'aumône et le jeûne du mois de ramadan. Chaque année, près de deux millions de musulmans qui en ont les moyens financiers et les capacités physiques se rendent dans la ville sainte, lieu de naissance du Prophète Mahomet, pour accomplir le hajj, le grand pèlerinage sacré. Cette année 2026, le hajj s'est déroulé du 25 au 30 mai. La Mecque, cité devenue sacrée pour les musulmans, représente le lieu où est né le Prophète Mahomet autour de l'année 570. C'est aussi non loin de La Mecque, dans une grotte où le Prophète avait l'habitude de se retirer, que lui serait apparu l'ange Gabriel et que le Coran lui aurait été révélé. La Mecque est aussi la ville d'où Mahomet a été forcé de s'exiler avec ses partisans, pour se réfugier à Médine, alors que les Mecquois, gardiens de la Kaaba, étaient à l'époque hostiles à son message de rompre avec le polythéisme. Cette période, la fuite de Mahomet à Médine marquera le début de l'Hégire et du calendrier lunaire musulman. C'est finalement en 630 que Mahomet conquiert la ville de La Mecque. Et en mars 632, son pèlerinage d'adieu serait le premier et le dernier hajj du Prophète à La Mecque. On dit qu'il aurait détruit les 360 idoles autour de la Kaaba, cet immense cube haut de 14 mètres, considéré comme la « maison de Dieu » et qui renferme la pierre noire, désormais devenu le lieu le plus sacré de l'islam. Tout au long de l'année, on fait aussi la Omra, le petit pèlerinage. Dans cette émission, nous entendrons le témoignage d'une femme qui a effectué la Omra à La Mecque : Lilia Bensedrine, Franco-Tunisienne, nous fait part de son pèlerinage et de son chemin intérieur, elle décrypte pour nous toute la symbolique des lieux et des gestes effectués. Invitée : Lilia Bensedrine, juriste, titulaire d'un Master en islamologie, co-présidente du Comité pour le dialogue interreligieux et interconvictionnel – O.I.N.G du Conseil de l'Europe et directrice du Festival Sacrées Journées de Strasbourg.

On Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg, Dani speaks with Nicholas Enrich for Part 3 of Food Tank's series exploring the far-reaching impacts of dismantling the U.S. Agency for International Development. Enrich is a former civil servant who worked at the U.S. Agency for International Development under four administrations and the author of the new book Into the Wood Chipper: A Whistleblower's Account of How the Trump Administration Shredded USAID. During their conversation, they talk about why he released a series of whistleblower memos to expose the administration's actions, the generational impacts of dismantling the agency, and advice for civil servants trying to speak out against unethical or illegal behavior in their own offices. Plus, U.S. states move to ban food dyes and additives, Thailand's THAIFEX expo highlights the global shift away from ultra-processed foods, U.S.-Mexico trade disputes continue to drive up tomato prices, a federal decision threatens to remove bison from public lands in Montana, and the Hajj brings people and culinary traditions together.

On Monday over one and a half million Muslims from around the world began filling a vast tent city in Mecca for the annual hajj pilgrimage. Each year this religious practice which Muslims hope to perform at least once in their life, tests people's faith and physical stamina. But this year, there's another more sobering reality. Air defence batteries are positioned on the outskirts of Mecca, responsible for protecting the skies over the holy sites. And this is a consequence of the continued US-Israeli war in Iran and the most recent Israeli military strikes in eastern Lebanon, wars which are reconfiguring who gets to travel, how they get there, and at what cost. And amidst the hopes for an end to the war, I wonder how people living and affected by it think about such momentous rituals as Hajj, how they plan, save and travel only to return to continued uncertainty once the pilgrimage is over. Perhaps people have learned how to live beside ruins without letting the ruins destroy their soul. It is said that Lebanon in particular has always sung while burning. Its poets turned ruins into hymns and mourning into the resistance of stubborn hope. But it seems to me that wherever there is war and destruction in the world people learn to live with both grief and hope. Cafés and shops reopen after explosions, children play on the streets, weddings happen during ceasefires, cities still wake up to make coffee by the sea; survival itself becomes a kind of ritual. Maybe that is why so many people want to perform Hajj this year - ritual isn't escapism from the world's violence. It is resistance against becoming spiritually shaped by that violence. People who live close to loss ask deeper questions about God, justice, and meaning. The pilgrimage is a kind of surrender to a greater reality – everyone moves in the same direction, recites the same prayers, dressed in similar garments, and despite their different burdens, the crowds repeat the simple but powerful call ` here I am O Lord, here I am.' And for one suspended moment, as the pilgrims stand as the guests of God, they begin to realise something terrifying and beautiful- that every empire, every militia, every border, every war will one day become dust. That it isn't suffering but the need for divine mercy for us all which is the final truth about humanity.

As millions of Muslims wake to messages of “Eid Mubarak” this morning, more than one-and-a-half million pilgrims are completing the rituals of Hajj in Saudi Arabia. For those who make it, the pilgrimage is often described as the journey of a lifetime, a moment of forgiveness, surrender and renewal. But for many Australian Muslims, the fifth pillar of Islam is becoming harder to reach, because the cost has become overwhelming.

A spiritual journey like no other… just with more chaos, queueing, and a missing pair of sandals.Blending storytelling, stand-up and documentary, comedian Ali Shahalom (aka Ali Official) takes us on a deeply personal comic journey through one of the most important acts of worship in Islam: Hajj. What begins as a sacred pilgrimage becomes a test of patience, endurance, and broadband speed.From battling the notoriously stressful Nusuk booking system (“depression you pay for”) to convincing his entire family to commit to the trip, Ali charts every step of the journey with warmth, honesty and razor-sharp humour. There are frozen bank accounts, passport panics, and a £40,000 leap of faith - and that's all before he's even left the UK.Written and performed by Ali Shahalom Script editor - Laura Major Sound design - Andy Goddard Producer - Victoria LloydA Mighty Bunny Production for BBC Radio 4

Around 1.5 million pilgrims from around the world have gathered in Saudi Arabia for Hajj 2026 in Mecca, as the annual Islamic pilgrimage takes place under scorching temperatures reaching around 48°C. From Australia, a significant number of pilgrims also travel each year for Hajj, including many from the South Asian community.A large section of South Asian families continue to prefer travelling via their home countries such as India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, a trend explored in this report. We look at how Hajj 2026 travel from Australia is being shaped by rising costs, strict quota systems, and global conditions, in conversation with Hajj travel provider Waqas Jamal. The report also examines challenges for families, increasing competition among travel agents, and options available for those who miss out on securing a place in the annual Hajj quota.

In this episode, we recount the story of Hajar, the wife of Prophet Ibrahim, whose unwavering faith and reliance on Allah in the barren desert led to the miracle of Zamzam, the settlement of Makkah, and the Hajj ritual of walking between Safa and Marwa.
In this video, we explore the origins of Hajj through the story of Prophet Ibrahim, Hajar, and Ismail, including the miracle of Zamzam, the building of the Kaaba, and the powerful message of unity, equality, and devotion in Islam.
*The Practical Guide Every Haji Needs* with Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera From airport chaos to the crowds of Jamarat… From packing mistakes to navigating Mina, Arafat & Muzdalifah… This masterclass is designed to help you move through Hajj with confidence, clarity, and calm — so your heart stays focused on worship, not stress. ✅ What to pack (and what most people regret bringing) ✅ Smart movement tips for every stage of Hajj ✅ Practical advice that saves time, energy & worry ✅ Lessons learned from real Hajj experiences Whether it's your first Hajj or your fifth, this session will help you prepare smarter, travel lighter, and worship better. Share with family & friends preparing for Hajj
In this deeply reflective and transformative talk, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera explores the inner dimensions of Hajj beyond its outward rites and rituals. The Unseen Hajj: The Spiritual Journey Beyond the Rituals invites listeners to uncover the hidden meanings, spiritual lessons, and profound states of the heart embedded within every step of the sacred pilgrimage. Drawing upon Qur'anic insights, Prophetic teachings, and centuries of Islamic scholarship, the talk examines how Hajj is not merely a physical journey to Makkah, but a journey of the soul toward sincerity, surrender, humility, and nearness to Allah. From the symbolism of Ihram and Tawaf to the sacrifice of Mina and the standing at Arafah, each ritual becomes a mirror reflecting the believer's inner condition and spiritual aspirations. This inspiring presentation challenges attendees to move beyond performing rituals mechanically and instead experience Hajj as a life-changing process of purification, self-discovery, and renewal. Whether preparing for pilgrimage, reflecting on a past Hajj, or seeking spiritual growth in everyday life, listeners will gain timeless insights into how the essence of Hajj can continue long after the journey ends.
