Committing to paper one's experiences and memoires of the hajj pilgrimage, belongs to a long-established rich genre. The classical tradition comprises descriptive travelogues and devotional treatises. By the twentieth century the genre had expanded to predominantely include personal reflections on, and observations of, this grand collective ritual.
