This year's hajj, which has been scaled back dramatically to include only around 1,000 Muslim pilgrims as Saudi Arabia battles a coronavirus surge, will begin on July 29. Some 2.5 million people from all over the world usually participate in the ritual. This year's hajj will follow strict hygiene protocols, with access limited to pilgrims under 65 years old.
