Abstract

If we consider the hajj and umrah gatherings in Makkah and Madinah as a microcosm of global Muslim communities, it can be safely said that English is the common language that has become their language of choice and unites them as one people. English stands out as the most important lingua franca for communication between Muslims from diverse linguistic backgrounds — linguistically, it helps bring the global Muslim community together.
