Key Takeaways
- More than 31.95 million worshippers and Umrah performers visited the Two Holy Mosques in Ramadan’s first ten days.
- The Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah continue to operate at full capacity.
- Authorities maintain comprehensive services to accommodate the massive influx.
The General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques announced that 31,950,000 worshippers and Umrah performers have visited the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah during the first ten days of Ramadan 1447 AH.
Thousands of workers, volunteers, and security personnel worked around the clock to ensure smooth entry and exit, clean facilities, and accessible guidance for worshippers.
The first ten days of Ramadan typically see steady crowds, but the last ten days—particularly the nights when Laylat al-Qadr is sought—draw the largest gatherings.
Authorities are preparing for even higher numbers in the coming days.
