Riyadh: Thousands of pilgrims, including those from the Sultanate of Oman, are completing their spiritual journey before beginning their return home.

Most Omani pilgrims are scheduled to depart from Mina today after performing the ritual of stoning the Jamarat on the 13th day of Dhul Hijjah. Others will leave the Holy Mosque in Makkah after performing the Farewell Tawaf, the final rite of the pilgrimage.
