A number of pilgrims gain the special opportunity of standing before the door of the Ka‘bah in prayer. Every year during the Hajj season this golden door is opened by the governor of Mecca and washed with perfume. To enter the Ka‘bah is a very rare honor and privilege bestowed upon only a few dignitaries each year.
Sejumlah jemaah haji mendapat kesempatan istimewa untuk berdiri didepan pintu Ka’bah dalam do’a. Setiap tahun di musim haji pintu emas ini dibuka oleh Gubernur Mekkah dan dicuci dengan wewangian. Memasuki Ka’bah adalah sebuah kehormatan dan keistimewaan langka yang diberikan kepada segelintir tokoh setiap tahunnya.

Para peziarah di gunung Uhud sebelah utara Madinah disaat matahari terbit. Disinilah pasukan Islam yang dipimpin Nabi Muhammad SAW menderita kekalahan telak pada 23 Maret 625 (tahun 3 Hijrah) dari pasukan Mekkah dalam satu pertempuran besar di awal sejarah lahirnya agama Islam. Disini pula Nabi sendiri terluka.
