Pilgrims perform rituals of hajj

More than 2 million Muslim pilgrims headed to Muzdalifa to symbolically cast stones at the devil.

A sea of pilgrims, some on foot, moved from the plain of Arafat down a desert boulevard flanked by towering floodlights. At Muzdalifa, just outside Mecca, they gathered small pebbles to throw at large walls at the Jamarat Bridge, symbolizing the rejection of temptation.
