Sounds of "Labbaik" fill Arafat grounds

Muslim pilgrims from all over the world gather at the Arafat grounds in Saudi Arabia at sunrise on Tuesday to perform Hajj. The pilgrims' chants of “Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik”, or “I am here, O Allah, I am here”, fill the air to memorialse the Final Hajj performed by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
