Haj Mentioned In Bible



Most of the muslims and christians did not know that Pilgrimage of Hajj is even mentioned in bible...



First of all we know that one of the name of "Makkah" was "Bakkah" as mentioned in Quran
(3:96) Indeed,  the  first House  [of worship]  established  for mankind  was that at Bakkah [i.e., Makkah] – blessed and a guidance for the worlds.(
Saheeh international's translation)


Bible (Psalms, King James version)

{84:3} Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for
           herself, where she may lay her young, [even] thine altars, O LORD
           of hosts, my King, and my God.
{84:4} Blessed [are] they that dwell in thy house: they will be still
             praising thee(1). Selah.
{84:5} Blessed [is] the man whose strength [is] in thee; in whose heart
          [are] the ways [of them.]
{84:6} [Who] passing through the valley of Baca(2) make it a well; the
           rain also filleth the pools.
{84:7} They go from strength to strength, [every one of them] in Zion
           appeareth before God.


(1)-when muslims go for hajj they chant(praise God) "Lab-baik...allahuma lab-baik" (here we are o my lord, here we are, at your service).
(2)-Another name of Makkah.
