Hi! You can call me BuNTy! I joined Wikipedia on 2 September, 2014. Editing on Wikipedia happened by a freak incident as I chanced upon the edit this page tab at the top of the page. The concept sounded cool for me as I was getting the opportunity of adding content to improve any article's quality that I had the understanding of. The rest is for you to see.
Al-Hajj is the 22nd chapter (surah) of the Quran, describing the pilgrimage to Mecca known as the Hajj. This Chinese scroll in ink, watercolour and gold on paper was produced in the second half of the 19th century, contains the full text of the chapter in Arabic, and is now part of the Khalili Collection of Hajj and the Arts of Pilgrimage. Almost five metres (16 feet) in length, the scroll's illustrations include a map entitled "Routes of the Hajj", a view of the Great Wall of China, and views of Mecca and Medina, as well as diagrammatic depictions of the stations of pilgrimage and Jerusalem, including the Kaaba. The illustrations are captioned in Chinese.
