A vast ocean of worshippers filled the Grand Mosque in Mecca on Friday, gathering for the first Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan.

AhlulBayt News Agency: A vast ocean of worshippers filled the Grand Mosque in Mecca on Friday, gathering for the first Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan.

The Grand Mosque witnessed a massive influx of worshippers today, as devotees from across the world filled its corridors and courtyards from early morning, Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.

To accommodate the crowds, comprehensive organizational measures were implemented, focusing on seamless crowd management, sanitization, and guidance services.

These field efforts ensured a smooth flow of movement, allowing worshippers to perform their rites with ease.

The spiritual gathering reaffirmed the Grand Mosque’s role as the unifying heart of the Muslim world and highlighted the efforts to providing visitors to Mecca with an exceptional and tranquil experience.

Ramadan is the ninth and most sacred month of the Islamic calendar, in which Muslims commemorate the revelation of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

During Ramadan, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, refraining from eating, drinking, and smoking.

They also devote more time to prayer, charity and good deeds, seeking to strengthen their faith and purify their souls.
