Muslim Airmen and Soldiers complete spiritual pillar during deployment

The Kaaba sits inside the Masjid al-Haram Mosque, at Mecca, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 2023. Nearly a million Muslims circled the Kaaba counterclockwise while reciting the Quran. It is the holiest site in all of Islam and Muslims are asked to visit it at least once in their lifetime. (Courtesy photo by Rashidaddin Shakirov)
