Pilgrimage (Hajj

The Four Pillars this place has been made a permanent centre of invitation to Islam. On the one hand, it has a historical appeal, so that people from all over the world flock to it every year; on the other hand, it has been regarded as the sanctum sanctorum and a place of safety, i.e. it has been so arranged that this area always remains under Muslim jurisdiction; no outsiders will ever be able to have political or administrative control over it. Besides the first two arrangements, amazingly indeed, a third arrangement has been made to lay the economic foundation of this territory on very firm ground, so that the people of this area are never dependent upon others for their material needs and so that they may never have to stint upon the proclamation and exercise of their Dawah duty.
