"Remember! We identified the site of the Sacred House to Ibraheem, saying, "Worship none besides Me, sanctify My House for those worshipers who make Tawaf, stand in prayer, bow and prostrate themselves, and O Ibraheem, make a proclamation of Hajj to mankind; they will come to you on foot and on lean camels from all distant quarters, so that they may witness the benefits which are made available for them, and pronounce the name of Allah over the cattle which we have provided as food for them, on the appointed days; eat then of their meat yourself and feed the indigent having a very hard time. Then they should accomplish their needful acts of shaving or cutting their hair and taking a bath; fulfill their vows and go for Tawaf of the Ancient House. This was the object for which the Ka'bha was built, and whoever honors the sacred rites of Allah, it is good for him in the sight of his Rabb. The meat of cattle is lawful for you except what has been mentioned to you; therefore, shun the abomination of idols and shun all false statements." Quran, Al-Hajj, 22: 26-30
