He said the agency was responsible for the cleanliness, safety and comfort of the prayer area, the provision of Zamzam water and development plans for women's services at the Grand Mosque.
Meanwhile, Amjad Al Hazmi, deputy secretary of the Raja Abdulaziz Complex for the Cover of the Kaaba, said the kiswah would be examined every day and its maintenance would be carried out by experts from Saudi Arabia if needed.
It is known that if you break the fast together and itikaf, the time when the congregation spends hours in the mosque to worship and pray, will be continued for a full month.
Previously, the iftar activity sponsored by this charity was banned for two years due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Congregants can bring dried food to break the fast, but free iftar food is available.
Especially for Umrah, only those with valid permits are issued through the Eatmarna application (now called Nusuk) who will be allowed to perform the worship
Ramadan this year is expected to start on March 23, although the exact date will most likely be announced on the evening of March 22 by the rukyat committee.
