About IL centuries ago Mohammed
which i'm Arabic means the Praised

since that time has been held as the
most holy city in Islam.
Some time after the death OF Mo-

pilgrimages 10 his birthplace, and the
custom has continued ever since, al
though it is falling into disuse.
There was time when every pious
Moslem made at least one pilgrimage

Mecca is neither a large nor a

and rather regular, but unpaved' and
the houses, built of brick or stone
are old and generally out Of repair.
