Seventeen-year-old Adam Khalil reluctantly journeys from Chicago to Mecca on a sponsored Hajj honoring his late grandfather's dream. Alongside new friends Ali, Mariam, and Yusuf, he navigates the rituals—from Ihram and tawaf to the emotional climax at Arafah—confronting grief, doubt, and the power of intention. Each step, from stoning in Mina to circling the Kaaba, transforms his heart. Returning home, Adam carries Mecca's light within, inspiring his community with the Star of Mecca's enduring message of devotion, resilience, and the lifelong journey of faith.
