The Hajj pilgrimage in 2025 is expected to take place from June 4th to June 9th, based on the Islamic lunar calendar month of Dhul Hijjah. The key days are:
- June 4, 2025 (8th Dhul Hijjah): Official start of Hajj known as the Day of Tarwiyah.
- June 5, 2025 (9th Dhul Hijjah): Day of Arafah, the main day of Hajj.
- June 6, 2025 (10th Dhul Hijjah): Eid al-Adha, marking the biggest day of Hajj with key rituals.
- June 7-9, 2025 (11th-13th Dhul Hijjah): Days of Tashreeq, continued ritual observance.
The pilgrimage spans about five to six days during this period annually, shifting each year due to the lunar calendar. In 2025, Dhul Hijjah extends from May 28 to June 25, and the Hajj takes place in early June.
