Khelaiwi said the descending from Arafat this year scored record times as the first contingent arriving from Arafat stood at Muzdalifah at 10:45p.m. with the last group settled in the valley at 12:10 midnight. He said the move from Arafat to Muzdalifah to cut the nearly 15 kilometers distance, either by bus, train or on foot started at the same time. He said pilgrims who opted to take the train showed increasing numbers this year, but their rush was completely controlled, thanks to good organization and expert personnel, preventing any congestions or troubles. --More 20:22 LOCAL TIME 17:22 GMT تغريد
