Haj will be performed a day earlier
RIYADH, Jan 14: Saudi Arabia said on Friday the peak of this year's Haj pilgrimage will be on Jan 19 - a day earlier than it had previously announced.
The committee charged with deciding the start of this month said in a statement that a mistake had occurred during the sighting of the moon and that the pilgrimage month had actually started on Tuesday, Jan 11 and not January 12.
The Eidul Azha will start on Jan 20. -Reuters
