What is Hajj and why do we perform it? And what are the origins of Eid al-Adha?

During a visit to her grandparents, Sumayyah discovers their Hajj photo album. As she flips through it, she sees a great square-shaped building covered in a majestic black and gold cloth, a photo of her grandmother resting under the night sky, and one of her grandfather without any hair! Over the weekend, Sumayyah learns the rites of Hajj and the amazing story of Prophet Ibrahim (as) and his noble wife Hajarah (ra) and pious son Ismael (as).
