Description
He travelled on his first 'Hajj' to Mecca overland. Covering a distance of over 3,500 kilometres, he reached the port of Alexandria. He then headed inland to Cairo and journeying up the Nile valley reached the Red Sea. A rebellion there turned him back to Cairo. From Cairo, he took a second side trip to Damascus in Syria. On the Way, he visited Jerusalem and Bethlehem. There he joined a caravan that, travelling 1500 kilometres south, reached Medina and visited the tomb of Prophet Muhammad. Then he journeyed on to Mecca where he completed his pilgrimage and took the title of 'Haji'. He dropped the idea of returning home; after a month spent in Mecca, he joined a large caravan of pilgrims returning to Iraq across the Arabian Peninsula.
