Saudi Arabian Prince Mohammad Bin Salman banned iftar in mosques ahead of the holy month of Ramadan citing concerns about cleanliness inside mosque premises after iftar meals. The holy month of Ramadan is slated to begin on March 11 and conclude by April 9 this year.
Ramadan 2024: Keeping concerns of cleanliness in mind, Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Islamic Affairs issued a notice for imams, muezzins and worshippers to follow.
A heritage corner was set up during Saudi Arabia’s Founding Day celebrations at the Ministry of Islamic Affairs branch in the Al-Baha region, SPA said on Friday. It showcased ideas through which the participants expressed their pride in their values, heritage, and the historical depth of their country that spans three centuries. The corner featured popular foods, arts and crafts, textiles, and tools used in ancient times. As a well-established tradition of Saudi hospitality, Saudi coffee was served in the local style.
