The Sacred Ritual: Safa and Marwah are signs, and charity is voluntary good.
The mountains of Safa and Marwah are declared signs of God and running between them is mandatory during Hajj and Umrah. Voluntarily performing good deeds (*Khayr*) beyond the obligation is recognized. Value purposeful struggle. Recognize the rituals as historical symbols. Running between these hills symbolizes the human struggle, reminding us that strenuous effort in God's way is beloved.
