Citizens and residents performed Salat Al-Fajr (dawn prayers) at the Grand Mosque in Mecca today for the first time in months since Covid-19 restrictions were imposed.
Saudi Arabia allowed its citizens and residents inside the kingdom to perform prayers in Al Haram Mosque, for the first time in seven months, state television reported early on Sunday.
Earlier this month Saudi Arabia allowed citizens and residents to perform the Umrah pilgrimage at Islam's holiest sites, Mecca and Medina, after a seven-month pause due to coronavirus concerns.
