A Man Is Walking On Foot All The Way From India To Saudi For Hajj

Avatar

A 30-year-old man from Kerala, Shihab Chottur, is literally going on a journey of a lifetime as he set off from his village in Kerala on foot to perform Hajj. He will be traversing approximately 8,640 kms to reach Makkah. Needless to say, it’s not the easiest of tasks.

He has set off on his journey on June 2 and is expected to reach Makkah 8 months later.
