Tens of thousands of mosques across Saudi Arabia reopen for the first time in more than two months. The Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, the third holiest site for Muslims after Saudi Arabia's Mecca and Medina, also reopened for prayer.

Saudi cleric Hammoud Al-Labban recites the call to prayers as worshippers wearing face masks and observing social distancing guidelines to protect against the new coronavirus, attend dawn prayers at al-Mirabi Mosque in Jiddah, Saudi Arabia, Sunday, May 31, 2020. The Ministry of Islamic Affairs said mosques will open to the public for prayers from May 31 until June 20, except in Mecca, with precautionary measures and instructions.

In Saudi Arabia, the government prepared for the reopening of around 90,000 mosques after sanitizing prayer rugs, washrooms and shelves holding copies of the Quran, the Muslim holy book. The restrictions call for mosques to open just 15 minutes before each of the five daily prayers and to close 10 minutes after they conclude. Friday sermons and prayers are to last no longer than 15 minutes.

Chinese virus changed the whole world.

The root cause of all the insanity we are observing in America and around the World is unconsciousness, forgetting that everyOne is One Universal Consciousness in a different human costume. Once we remember, the insanity stops and Life is a joy to live again.

I suppose I'm picking nits, but you are comparing apples and oranges here, or, in this case, a mosque and two cities.

Ok, Thanks. Anything else going on?

stupid people and their stupid religions.

It is about time we reopen all places of worship. We need to pray to God for help. The world is going crazy! :(

Baligubadle1 How are these people going to react when they realize aliens are real.

And of course they condemn the riots in the US

*BOOM*

Why do they always bring up that is the third holiest spot? Are they trying to belittle the location? Trying to make the building sad? What a dumbass way to say this

🤢🤢🤢🤢

I wish them well. May they worship in safety and peace.
