Saudi: Public Urged to Pray at Home During Ramadan

Saudi Arabia’s Council of Senior Scholars urged Muslims around the world to pray at home during Ramadan if they reside in countries that have imposed lockdowns or curfew to curb the coronavirus outbreak.

The authorities advised Muslims to partake in their religious practices, such as praying, but refrain from causing harm to others.

The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia had said on Friday that Ramadan communal taraweeh and Eid prayers should be held at home to avoid spreading the virus.
