In Pictures: Umrah Has Resumed Again And Everything Is Going Smoothly
After the conclusion of a very successful Hajj (despite the ongoing pandemic), Umrah has now resumed in the Grand Mosque in Makkah and all the efforts are being made to make sure it is safe and organized.
The Grand Mosque is being cleaned and sterilized regularly every day and night
Prayer and ablution sites are especially sterilized after every prayer. And, of course, social distancing is strictly in place with only people who have permits (gotten through the Eatmarna app) and are ‘immunized’, via vaccination or recovery from COVID-19, are able to access the Grand Mosque.
