General Authority Distributes 58,000 Carpets Across Two Holy Mosques to Serve Worshippers
The General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque provided approximately 58,000 carpets, carefully distributed throughout the courtyards and halls of the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet's Mosque in Madinah. Of these, 39,400 carpets are placed in the Grand Mosque, including within the Third Saudi Expansion, to ensure the comfort of worshippers and assist in regulating crowd movement during peak Umrah seasons.
Field teams are committed to continuously monitoring the carpets' readiness through regular cleaning, sanitizing, and replacement. They also redistribute the carpets to accommodate shifts in crowd density during prayer times and peak hours, particularly during the large influx of pilgrims in Ramadan.
The authority places particular emphasis on the quality of the carpets used. They are manufactured to high specifications to withstand intensive use while maximizing comfort for worshippers. Strict safety standards, along with ease of cleaning and maintenance, are also prioritized.
These efforts are part of a comprehensive system of services provided by the general authority to create a comfortable and spiritually enriching environment for all visitors. The meticulous organization reflects the profound care that the wise leadership bestows upon the Two Holy Mosques.
