The convoys of pilgrims began to arrive in Upper Arafa to spend the pilgrimage corner, since dawn on Saturday, August 10.
Saudi Arabia's Al-Akhbariya TV channel published a video showing a large number of pilgrims flocking to Mount Arafat, after most of them spent the night in Mina in what is known as "Tarawiya Day".
The Hajj authorities have prepared thousands of camps in Arafat to receive pilgrims while ensuring safety tools, especially with the arrival of the huge number of pilgrims to Arafat.
The pilgrims spend their time on the day of Arafat, the ninth of Dhul-Hijjah, in worship, remembrance of God and fulfillment.
Earlier on Friday, the director of Saudi Public Security announced that more than one million and 100,000 pilgrims arrived in Mina, and that 100,000 pilgrims arrived in Arafat, while the remaining 800,000 arranged pilgrims remain on Saturday morning directly to Upper Arafat.
After sunset, the pilgrims are expected to alienate Muzdalifah, where they will stay and collect the stoning, which they will deliver on Eid and during the three days of Tashreeq.
