ziyara (English spelling) ziyara

...It is only when pilgrims from all over the world find themselves in the throngs of tawaf, sa'i, and 'uquf that they realize they are part of a sacred community that transcends race, ethnicity, language, and nationality. Although the only pilgrimages stipulated by Islamic law are hajj and 'umra, ziyāra, which means a visit to a tomb, is also commonly translated as pilgrimage, and its significance in religious sociology and psychology is almost the same as hajj. Ziyara includes visits to (1) the tomb of Muhammad in the Prophet's Mosque in Medina, (2) the tombs of saints, and (3) the tombs and imams of Shiites. Ziyara to Najaf, Karbala, and Mashhad in particular is considered the second most important religious event for Shiites after hajj, and has its own unique rituals.
