The Hajj
Abstract —Hajj (Pilgrimage) is one of the five main pillars of Islam.AMuslim is obliged to perform it once in a life time if able. The practice includes many rules and procedures (rituals). It is challenging for a pilgrim to remember and perform all of these rituals. IT can be used to simplify and overcome many of the difficulties in performing Hajj rituals. In spite of the countless guidelines and booklets printed in various languages and distributed among pilgrims before after and during the Hajj season, still many pilgrims lack the knowledge of performing the Hajj rituals. This paper covers the overview of mobile Help for Performing Hajj rituals through Mobile dictionary applications.
